NAME

       xmms2-mdns-avahi - announces XMMS2 via mDNS

SYNOPSIS

       xmms2-mdns-avahi

DESCRIPTION

       XMMS2  is a redesign of the XMMS (http://www.xmms.org) music player. It
       features a client-server model, allowing multiple (even  simultaneous!)
       user  interfaces,  both textual and graphical. All common audio formats
       are supported using plugins. On top of this, there is a flexible  media
       library to organize your music.

       xmms2-mdns-avahi  is  the  Avahi  mDNS  announcing  client  for  XMMS2.
       xmms2-mdns-avahi is designed to announce the presence of an  accessible
       XMMS2 TCP socket if one is available.

       xmms2-mdns-avahi  offers  a  _xmms2._tcp  service  if, and only if, the
       XMMS_PATH_FULL enviornmental  variable  contains  a  TCP  socket.  This
       allows clients that support mDNS discovery to easily locate and connect
       to this xmms2d(1) instance.

ENVIRONMENTAL VARIABLES
