A new lightweight music manager

msdelos · 2008-08-26 17:30:25

Ahh...
Also I was working to implement the concealment of media_browser... Simil Amarok...

The code is of doubtful quality.. I am learning to program in gtk.. By I show it in another page, to be able to explain it better and not to soil this forum with bad code…

the basic idea is this.

. ..and in this page they will see the code.
http://tux-goodies.wikispaces.com/wish+list

The code will not be used for much, but it wanted to show my idea to them... Tanks...

Excuse my english… :-(

Redit... 27/08/2008

I was re programming using gtk_button (Instead of gtk_toggles_button), and I obtained that it works correctly… Also It adds a label with the name of the program that is pretty...

Please. They prove the code and they count....! XD

Here, Shot and diff to SVN: http://tux-goodies.wikispaces.com/wish+list

Tanks!

I am using this on a regular basis, and aside from some minor glitches, I really like it. Some things I would like to see solved:
- remembering the playlist (and position?) after shutdown
- in File-mode, possibility to set the default folder
- is it really necessary to scan through the whole folder if you added 20 songs? (I really don't know, just asking)
Also, gapless playback would be nice.
If this translation-thing gets started, I'm willing to provide the dutch translation. This looks like the perfect project to start (really) contributing to the community (hopefully easing my way into it)
Zl.

The SVN version stores the current playlist on shutdown.

Any progress about the localization thing?

My suggestion: make a simple protocol for it (or use an existing one), and make it listen somewhere, so it is controllable by any language or system that is able to create a socket connection and send/recieve data over the link.

Whether a port on localhost or a socket file in /tmp or ~, this will be the most awesome addition you can make for it IMHO.

If you want protocol ideas, look at the iNetCtl plugin for XMMS at http://www.xmms.org/plugins.php?details=81 - it's like IRC/FTP in that it's plaintext, and a very good start for you to expand on. My only request is that you change your protocol so it doesn't send track updates by default (and has to be enabled via a command)!

So yeah. Native remote control support would really make your program just... take off, in my opinion.

Great work.

I'm just waiting on last.fm support now, even if its just submission only.

Anybody want to be helpful and write a little script to parse the "current state" info and reconstruct it into a single line ala "Artist - Title"? For conky, of course.

Everytime i play something, the app crashs with this code.
After add something in the 'Album art file pattern', like 'cover', this never crash again.

Just reporting.

Should be fixed in svn now. Thanks for reporting this.

sacamano_m82 · 2008-09-16 15:53:00

So a new version (0.3.1) is out. AUR has the updated PKGBUILD.
The changelog is at the usual place: /usr/share/consonance/doc/

And nope, last.fm is not supported yet. Sue me :-)

Blµb · 2008-09-16 19:45:19

just a side note before my post: I don't like it that the *.in files are in the repos, they're autogenerated by autoconf iirc

Anyway, I love to play mod files, and so I thought I'd add modplug support to consonance...
Should be made optional in the configure script, it doesn't support seeking, and doesn't display the play time ... because when it comes to mod files that's a bit hard to do, considering they support looping and stuff...

It's just a start for ppl who are interested - if anyone wants to finish it (by adding the possibility to change the settings, and adding the math to display the time, at least if ModPlug_GetLength was successfull, clamping it to 100% etc. because loops may cause some over-time ... etc.)

blah, here's a link:
http://stud4.tuwien.ac.at/~e0725517/pat … dplug.diff

I tried to keep everything similar to the way the other codecs are implemented, take a look and gimme some feedback if you want

playback_modplug.c is missing in the diff.
And yep, the autoconf stuff has to be cleaned up. Will look into it.

Blµb · 2008-09-17 09:21:40

OOooooh right, sorry, forgot to svn add before svn diff ^^
updated the diff, I hope I didn't forget anything else
(I need an "intelligent" auto-`svn add` daemon running in the background... I always forget about adding the files... anyone care to code one? )

EDIT:
Oh and another thing, I'm not 100% sure about the mime types, I don't have every kind of mod file here (actually, since my HDD got busted, I only got some .xm files left)
so maybe some others can be added, or some of them renamed

sorry for giving you something that incomplete, but hey, it does play them right
and I don't really have much time to work on things, but I'll try to find some time to polish it up a little

so, putting it all together:
+) it playes the files with good quality settings
+) it should recognize many mod files, and it should display their length if possible
-) it doesn't display how long it's been playing
-) it doesn't support seeking (modplug has a seek function, but it also says that it's not reliable, so it might not be a good idea to support it anyway)
-) it doesn't have a settings window
-) the mime type list should be checked

Awesome app! I suggest the following change to configure.ac. Libsexy is a requirement (threw me for a little bit as the system tray popup won't display without it).

A lower version of libsexy may be appropriate, too.

I have checked in a different version in trunk. I did this for 2 reasons:
* The above patch handles only mp3 files.
* I didn't want to mess with the tags themselves, might mess up tag editing later on.

Please check if it works as intended. Thanks !

You need to have pkgconfig on your system. 'pacman -S pkgconfig'

What's going on?

I'm upgrading to the 710 SVN version:

Everything is ok, but when it goes to compile:

checking for vorbisfile... yes
checking for libmodplug... no

Libmodplug?

Hey, I just yaourt'd Consonance, and I have to say: I'm thrilled! This is the app I've been searching for. In this thread, I was looking around for a new music player, and I ended up with Audacious -- which was okay, but not perfect. I installed Consonance on a whim...and it fulfills all my requirements out of the box. Great job! Five stars from me, or something.
