NAME

       mpskip - emulate a skipping record

SYNOPSIS

       mpskip [num_skips] [duration] [skippos] [host]

DESCRIPTION

       mpskip makes mpd emulate a skipping record.

       If num_skips is not specified (or is 0), it will skip forever (or until someone manually
       seeks past the "bad" part of the song, or changes songs).

       The duration is how long the skip should be, in seconds. Floating point values can be
       used.

       The skippos is the number of seconds into the song to place the skip point.  Default is
       the current play position.

       If the hostname is omitted, the MPD_HOST environment variable will be used.

LIMITATIONS

       Doesn't insert the pop you hear on a real record player when the needle skips.

       If run against a remote host, it may not skip at exactly the same place each time due to
       network issues.
