CuePlay - Editing cueplay.ini

You can find cueplay.ini in the directory ~/.cueplay. It is an .ini file. An example cueplay.ini file is given below.
See this example cueplay.ini for Mac OSX.

Section [Audio]

This section provides cueplayer with the information needed to play your music. As CuePlay delegates mp3 playing to mpg123, it requests a module to be used and a device to write the music to. device can be '-', if none is to be used (i.e., the primary audio device is used). mpg123 --list-modules gives you the possible audio modules on your system.

On Mac OS X you normally do not need to edit these settings.
On Ubuntu, you also do not normally need to edit these settings. Ubuntu defaults to ALSA.

Sometimes you need other modules. Modules, mpg123 provides are:

jack: output Output audio using JACK (JACK Audio Connection Kit).
arts: output Output audio using aRts Sound Daemon
nas: output Output audio using NAS (Network Audio System)
pulse: output Output audio using PulseAudio Server
oss: output Output audio using OSS
dummy: output Dummy audio output - does not output audio.
alsa: output Output audio using Advanced Linux Sound Architecture (ALSA).
esd: output Output audio using ESounD (The Enlightened Sound Daemon).

Many systems use the pulse audio system. You then configure 'pulse'.

Keywords:

mpg123player	The mpg123 player command line to use. Defaults to 'mpg123'. Normally you don't touch this setting.
module	The audio module to use by mpg123 (jack, arts, oss, pulse, alsa, etc. )
device	Identifies the hardware device to use with the audio module (depends on the audio module). E.g. hw:0,0 for alsa to indicate the primary audio device, or hw:1,0 to indicate a secondary device.
mix	Not explained, just don't touch.

Section [flac123]

This section identifies the driver and player to use to play FLAC files. CuePlay is suited for playing flac files with flac123. It understands the following keywords:

flac123player	Set the flac123 player. Defaults to 'flac123' or 'flac123_x86_64-linux' for 64 bit Ubuntu. Normally you don't touch this setting.
driver	Set the driver to use by flac123.

flac123 has no way to set the audio device. But see libao settings.

Section [places]

Tells CuePlay where it can find its Music library. Normally you only touch 'music_library'. The following keywords are understood:

music_library	The place where to find your music. Use '%HOME' to indicate your home directory.
guess_encodings	Makes CuePlay default to the given character encoding when reading .cue files.
recordings	The place where to find your recordings. Use '%HOME' to indicate your home directory.

On OSX Please don't touch the mpg123.sh and flac123.sh scripts. If mpg123 stutters a lot (because your machine is often very busy), you can use

mpg123player=mpg123.sh -b 1024

Instead of the standard mpg123.sh line.
