[Solved] How did I break my mpd decoding?

capnmoney · 2010-03-04 04:05:20

I need help. Sometime this Saturday mpd stopped properly decoding mp3's. I didn't change any permissions on the files, so my assumption at this point is something that I upgraded/installed/removed broke it.

mpc gives an error of

ERROR: problems decoding "$MP3TITLE"

mpd.log has

Feb 27 22:31 : avahi: Client Disconnected, will reconnect shortly
Feb 27 22:31 : avahi: Could not reconnect: Daemon not running

but that's all over that log file and doesn't seem to anything major.

my pacman.log

I guess this was a permissions issue after all, although I don't remember changing anything. Following the instructions on the wiki fixed it.
