Installation

If you install O!MPD for the 1st time, just follow instructions from here.

Upgrade from previous versions

Rename old ompd directory to eg. ompd-old and copy new version to your www root dir.

If you upgrade from v1.03 you can use your previous include/config.inc.php file, but you need to modify it a little bit. There are some new settings – they are in section between NEW IN O!MPD 1.04 and END OF NEW IN O!MPD 1.04. You can copy it from new config file to your previous one and set desired values.

If you upgrade from older versions I’d recommend to edit new config file (include/config.inc.php).

Remember about setting write access to dirs:

• /ompd/tmp/
• /ompd/stream/
• /ompd/cache/

Your existing MySQL database will be used, so you don’t have to worry about things like player configuration, users, etc. (unless you change value of $cfg['mysqli_db'] – then new database will be created).

After configuration is done, open http://www-server-IP-address/ompd/index.php just like in previous versions. If everything is OK, you should now see O!MPD v1.04.
