Music status not showing on Conky/MOC?

br flag

I am installing Graffias theme on Conky but the music not showing what is played on Rhytmbox. I am also looking for a way that those display anything that play on Firefox/Discord etc just for the aesthetic. Trying to configure using ConkyManager2 but there is no option for music.

No music played

-- UPDATE: after looking on config file, there is this code:

${offset 0}${voffset 40}${font Material:size=9}${if_running mocp} ${font Carlito:size=11}${moc_state} :${else}${font Material:size=9} ${font Carlito:size=11}No music played${endif}
${offset 0}${voffset 5}${font Metropolis black:size=15}${if_running mocp}${moc_artist}${else}${font}
${offset 0}${voffset 2}${font Carlito:size=11}${if_running mocp}${moc_song}${else}

Basically I need to add code containing Rhythmbox/Firefox/Discord process. The problem is I don't know how to view those process, I take a look at System Monitor but it doesn't show much information to replace ${if_running mocp} ${moc_state} ${moc_song} ${moc_artist}

I try to change 'mocp' with rhythmbox but it's not working as if it doesn't understand what rhythmbox is. My suspect is that the script can only read a cmd processes?

Any idea? Thanks in advance!

If you look at the .conf file you will see that the music playing part is referencing mpd (Music Player Daemon). I don't know anything about this myself, it may be as simple as installing mpd or may require more conky related tools/setup, but maybe start here: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MPD

I just take a look at theme config file, and it says it will associate what display with moc player. So basically I need to write a new config to show what is playing on firefox/discord/rhytmbox. I don't think installing MPD won't do much since it is a code problem?

Most people don’t grasp that asking a lot of questions unlocks learning and improves interpersonal bonding. In Alison’s studies, for example, though people could accurately recall how many questions had been asked in their conversations, they didn’t intuit the link between questions and liking. Across four studies, in which participants were engaged in conversations themselves or read transcripts of others’ conversations, people tended not to realize that question asking would influence—or had influenced—the level of amity between the conversationalists.
