I am using openwrt 21.2.3 and mpd on it. I have compile mpd full and libffmpeg full as well as ffmpeg-full packages.
But my mpd wont load ffmpeg as decoder. Also tried to force it by adding decoder { plugin “ffmpeg” enabled “no” }”
line to /etc/mpd.conf
below is my mpd.conf
log_file "syslog"
bind_to_address "127.0.0.1"
bind_to_address "192.168.1.16"
input {
plugin "curl"
}
audio_output {
type "alsa"
name "sun4icodec"
device "plug:dmix"
mixer_control "Power Amplifier"
}
decoder {
plugin "ffmpeg"
enabled "yes"
}
the mpd --version output is as follows

If you pulled the binary and did not compile it by yourself the one who complied the binary might not have set the argument -Dffmpeg=enabled. This results in mpd just ignoring the related part in the config-file.
(Also there seems to be no use for enabled="yes". It only disables it with "no")
