-Next up, I installed <code>O!MPD</code>which installs MPD, MySQL, PHP, and the O!MPD web management system. You can choose another, DietPi has several you can install in its software catalogue.

-My music folder is: <code>/mnt/samba/music</code>so then I used the DietPi-Drive_Manager to mount my share into that folder. O!MPD barfed a few times trying to access that folder, and the best fix I found was to add mpd to the dietpi group.
