The real and detailed documentation is in the user manual.

......@@ -363,104 +363,6 @@ errors on bandwidth-limited devices. Some users have reported good results
with this set to 50000, but not all devices support values this high. Most
users do not need to change this. The default is 256000000 / sample_rate(kHz),
or 5804 microseconds for CD-quality audio.
.SH OPTIONAL OSS OUTPUT PARAMETERS
.TP
.B device <dev>
This specifies the device to use for audio output. The default is "/dev/dsp".
.TP
.B mixer_device <mixer dev>
This specifies which mixer to use. The default is "/dev/mixer".
.TP
.B mixer_control <mixer ctrl>
This specifies which mixer control to use (sometimes referred to as the
"device"). The default is to use the main PCM mixer. An example is "Pcm".
.SH OPTIONAL PULSE OUTPUT PARAMETERS
.TP
.B server <server list>
A space separated list of servers to try to connect to. See
<\fBhttp://www.pulseaudio.org/wiki/ServerStrings\fP> for more details. The
default is to let PulseAudio choose a server.
If you specify more than one server name, MPD tries to connect to one
after another until it successfully establishes a connection.
.TP
.B sink <sink>
The sink to output to. The default is to let PulseAudio choose a sink.
.SH OPTIONAL JACK OUTPUT PARAMETERS
.TP
.B client_name <name>
The client name to use when connecting to JACK. The output ports <name>:left
and <name>:right will also be created for the left and right channels,
respectively.
.TP
.B ports <left_port,right_port>
This specifies the left and right ports to connect to for the left and right
channels, respectively. The default is to let JACK choose a pair of ports.
.TP
.B ringbuffer_size <size in bytes>
This specifies the size of the ringbuffer in bytes. The default is 32768.
.SH REQUIRED SHOUT OUTPUT PARAMETERS
.TP
.B name <name>
This specifies not only the unique audio output name, but also the stream
title.
.TP
.B host <hostname>
This specifies the hostname of the icecast server to connect to.
.TP
.B port <port>
This specifies the port of the icecast server to connect to.
.TP
.B mount <mountpoint>
This specifies the icecast mountpoint to use.
.TP
.B password <password>
This specifies the password to use when logging in to the icecast server.
.TP
.B quality <quality>
This specifies the encoding quality to use. The value must be between 0
and 10. Fractional values, such as 2.5, are permitted. Either the quality or
the bitrate parameter must be specified, but not both. For Ogg, a
higher quality number produces higher quality output. For MP3, it's
just the opposite, with lower numbers producing higher quality output.
.TP
.B bitrate <kbps>
This specifies the bitrate to use for encoding. Either the quality or the
bitrate parameter must be specified, but not both.
.TP
.B format <sample_rate:bits:channels>
This specifies the sample rate, bits per sample, and number of channels to use
for encoding.
.SH OPTIONAL SHOUT OUTPUT PARAMETERS
.TP
.B encoding <encoding>
This specifies which output encoding to use. Should be either "ogg"
or "mp3", "mp3" is needed for shoutcast streaming. The default is "ogg".
.TP
.B protocol <protocol>
This specifies the protocol that wil be used to connect to the
icecast/shoutcast server. The options are "shoutcast", "icecast1" and
"icecast2". The default is "icecast2".
.TP
.B user <username>
This specifies the username to use when logging in to the icecast server. The
default is "source".
.TP
.B public <yes or no>
This specifies whether to request that the stream be listed in all public
stream directories that the icecast server knows about. The default is no.
.TP
.B timeout <seconds>
This specifies the number of seconds to wait before giving up on trying to
connect to the icecast server. The default is 2 seconds.
.TP
.B description <description>
This specifies a description of the stream.
.TP
.B url <url>
This specifies a URL associated with the stream.
.TP
.B genre <genre>
This specifies the genre(s) of the stream.
.SH FILES
.TP
.BI ~/.mpdconf
