This is run hourly via a cron job, and now works extremely well and can be used with mpd straight away. I've found that
its best with ncmpcpp as its front end. I always find that programmes name very difficult to remember as there doesn't
seem to be a logical pattern to the placing of the letters, so I've set up an alias for it -
alias nm='ncmpcpp'
If you put that alias in your .bash_aliases file, then all you have to remember is nm, which takes up just one pane
in my "tmux" setup, and then you can listen to your favourite radio programmes, as well as your music collection.
