A bug in SoundCloud playing?

[gjtorikian]

mpd 0.17.0 added some new-ish support for SoundCloud URLs.

In a Ruby script, I can execute

`mpc load soundcloud://track/121108619`

To queue a new URL. With this library, the following does not work:

mpd.load "soundcloud://track/121108619"

The error is:

MPD::ConnectionError (Broken pipe (got disconnected)):

Note that this should be load, not add, because MPD considers these to be playlists.

Currently there is no mpd.load method. I've abstracted the playlists into MPD::Playlist objects, so creating an object and calling playlist.load to load it into the queue should work. I admit that building object-oriented wrappers around this was/is pretty experimental, so quirks like these are bound to pop up.

Based on how the wrapper works internally, I think this should work:

playlist = MPD::Playlist.new(mpd, "soundcloud://track/121108619")
playlist.load

Sorry, I was out on vacation.

Your solution worked perfectly! Thanks.
