Would love to have ‘ **upmpdcli** ’ (UPnP Media Renderer front-end for MPD) included in DietPi Software.

I am running upmpdcli on my Raspberry PI Zero W (with Justboom Digi Zero HAT) music streamer for quite some months and it works hassle-free. It supports UPnP gapless track transitions and the OpenHome ohMedia services (including a Radio service to listen to Internet streams). Have added upmpdcli’s repositories so it also gets updates with apt.

I have Minimserver running as media server (on RPi) and Linn’s Kazoo control point software on PC and laptop. Kazoo supports upmpdcli’s radioservice. Both applications work seamlessly with upmpdcli.
