Not sure about the webapp but if you are comfortable with ssh / commandline…I ended up setting up a cron job to run every hour that just executes the ‘mpc update’ command.
I connected via SSH and I ran the following command.
‘crontab -e’ to open crontab for the current user.
Then I added the line ‘9 * * * * mpc update’ which will cause mpc to update the mpd database on the 9th minute of every hour.
Then save the file and you can run ‘crontab -l’ to confirm the change took…then it should just execute the command based on your inputs.
