NAME

       xmms2-mdns-avahi - announces XMMS2 via mDNS

SYNOPSIS

       xmms2-mdns-avahi

DESCRIPTION

       XMMS2  is  a  redesign  of the XMMS (http://xmms2.org) music player. It features a client-
       server model, allowing multiple (even simultaneous!) user  interfaces,  both  textual  and
       graphical.  All common audio formats are supported using plugins. On top of this, there is
       a flexible media library to organize your music.

       xmms2-mdns-avahi is the Avahi mDNS  announcing  client  for  XMMS2.   xmms2-mdns-avahi  is
       designed to announce the presence of an accessible XMMS2 TCP socket if one is available.

       xmms2-mdns-avahi  offers  a  _xmms2._tcp  service  if,  and  only  if,  the XMMS_PATH_FULL
       enviornmental variable contains a TCP  socket.  This  allows  clients  that  support  mDNS
       discovery to easily locate and connect to this xmms2d(1) instance.

ENVIRONMENTAL VARIABLES

       XMMS_PATH_FULL
              A  complete  list  of URL paths separated by ';' pointed to the xmms2d(1).  See IPC
