Exaile - GTK+ Amarok clone

This looks mint. It'd be great to have all the functionality of Amarok without the bloated libraries associated. Could someone make that dream come true? ^_^

The svn link is

# svn checkout svn://jbother.org/usr/local/svn/exaile

That's the best way to go, since they've got no source code on their site, and instead just a link to the v0.1 .deb package .

looks kinda neat.
I am currently using quod libet, and it looks like exaile has a regular expression playlist filter too. yay.

lol, idd.

Is some kind, capable soul going to offer to build the package? *cough TOMK *cough*

cactus · 2006-05-24 20:18:10

idd?

tomk · 2006-05-24 20:46:07

You really should take something for that cough .....

Finally got it to work (needs like 30 py libs lol).. cleaning everything up and it should be available in about 5-10 min!

Here you go:

Just to let you know, if you want any children, I'll have them for you

Thanks a lot man, I appreciate the rapidity of your response

Komodo · 2006-05-24 22:51:16

Hmm, I get:

svn: Can't open config file '/home/dave/.subversion/servers'

Any idea what's causing this?

this thread illustrates the same problem, but the solution of deleting the 'touch' line from the PKGBUILD doesn't work for me :shock:

Edit: I realised that the 'touch'd .subversion in my $HOME was a file, so I made a folder of the same name to take its place, and all is good

russianpirate · 2006-05-24 23:18:51

okay thanks i fixed the problem

Komodo · 2006-05-24 23:37:44

Now to fix problems when running the app :

playing has been stopped on 'Signal And Sign'
** Message: don't know how to handle application/x-id3

That's the message I get when trying to play something in it; it just stops as soon as I press play.

Edit: It looks like you need to add 'gstreamer-plugins' as a dependency too russianpirate; installing them fixed the problem

Thanks again for the pkgbuild

Edit 2: 'libgpod' is needed for ipod support, but is not needed for playing tracks.. I'll leave the decision to you whether or not to include it as a dependency

You being sarcastic, or genuinely appreciative Gullible? I suspect sarcastic -_-

Gullible Jones · 2006-05-25 01:54:05

No, genuinely appreciative. It's about time that we had something like amaroK for GTK.

Ok, cool

/me puts baseball bat away

Komodo · 2006-05-25 02:16:45

Why is there no 'Information' tab in the player, that allows you to select 'lyrics' etc? It's shown in the screenies, and svn must be the latest version.

Hmm... :?

Maybe it's just me, but i'm getting

Package details could not be found.
Go back to search results.

Here's the PKGBUILD I got before it went down, modified to fix the things I mentioned above:

I actually had a problem with gstreamer-plugins. It kept saying i needed it as a dependency, even though it is installed. So i removed that dependency ant its working great.

I wonder if this project will have podcast support?

barebones · 2006-05-25 03:31:32

Do you guys have any idea what part of gstreamer-plugins exaile needs? I use gstreamer0.10 so instealling gstreamer-plugins involves installing 40 some odd packages, which I'd like to avoid.

murffatksig · 2006-05-25 03:34:02

Have any of you had a chance to try this with an IPod, I get the following error on the command line when my ipod is mounted and I start exaile.

File "/usr/bin/exaile", line 1904, in ?
    main()
  File "/usr/bin/exaile", line 1893, in main
    exaile = ExaileWindow(fr)
  File "/usr/bin/exaile", line 200, in __init__
    self.ipod_panel.LoadTree('refresh')
  File "/usr/share/exaile/xl/panels.py", line 694, in LoadTree
    self.ConnectiPod()
  File "/usr/share/exaile/xl/panels.py", line 607, in ConnectiPod
    self.all.append(track)
  File "/usr/share/exaile/xl/tracks.py", line 64, in append
    self.paths[track.loc] = track
AttributeError: 'NoneType' object has no attribute 'loc'

When my Ipod isnt mounted it works great.

russianpirate · 2006-05-25 13:37:25

if you want ipod support (when its mounted) then run 'pacman -S libgpod'

i would recommend gst-plugins-mad gst-plugins-ogg gst-plugins-shout gst-plugins-vorbis and if you want arts or esd support then gst-plugins-arts or gst-plugins-esd

murffatksig · 2006-05-25 14:12:58

I've already got each of those packages already installed.
