Please note that config settings are overidden on a per setting +basis. For instance, if gui.browser.defaultpath is specified in /etc/herrie.conf, +but it is not specified in ~/.herrie/config then the setting in /etc/herrie.conf +will be used. The other settings that are in ~/.herrie/config would still be used. + + +** Chroot Mode ** +Be sure that the user you use for vfs.lockup.user is the OWNER of the folder used +for vfs.lockup.chroot. For some reason it is not enough to have read permissions +through a group. Also, note that other settings that use paths, such as +gui.browser.defaultpath and playq.dumpfile will use the chrooted path. You might +need to create a .herrie folder under your chrooted folder in order to be able to +automatically save your playlists. + +Also, herrie will not work properly when using AO in chroot mode! +ALSA is now the default sound system used because of this. + +Here is an example config file for using herrie in chroot mode: +# Herrie Config file for chrooted herrie +gui.browser.defaultpath=/ +vfs.lockup.chroot=/mnt/MEDIA/MyMusic +vfs.lockup.user=USERNAME +playq.dumpfile=/.herrie/autosave.pls + + +** Using AO ** +If AO is chosen as the sound output an option can be specified in the +config file. + +Config Examples of Using AO: +# Useful for KDE users +audio.output.ao.driver=arts + +# For sending sound output to a remote SSH session +audio.output.ao.driver=esd +audio.output.ao.host=env_ssh + + +** For More Information... ** +Please refer to the man page for the keyboard control bindings +and for more config options.
