Some smaller changes:

xmonad, urxvt, mplayer and some dzen instances (status bars, irssi notification, disk usage)

It's the Now Playing screenlet. The theme is a mod and I made a script for sonata.

Also, a wallpaper recommendation: http://nuwen.net/img/image/orion/2560x1600.png

Very nice WP! It's hard to find good wallpapers for this resolution. This is by far the most uniform LCD that I've ever owned. It dwarfs my previous 20" Acer. I'm thinking of wallmounting it to save ALL of my deskspace. It looks strange next to my SFF cube case... I look foward to having linux actually installed and not running from a live cd...

Not at all. wink

First, the package python-mpdclient2 has to be installed.
The script will look for covers in ~/.covers or for 'cover.jpg'/'album.jpg'/'folder.jpg' in the folder of the song (you have to change the "musicdir" value).

Here is the file Sonata.py that goes in ~/.screenlets/NowPlaying/Players/ :

#!/usr/bin/env python


import os
import dbus
import gobject
import mpdclient2
from GenericPlayer import GenericAPI

class SonataAPI(GenericAPI):
    __name__ = 'Sonata API'
    __version__ = '0.0'
    __author__ = ''
    __desc__ = ''


    playerAPI = None

    __timeout = None
    __interval = 2

    callbackFn = None
    __curplaying = None


    ns = "org.MPD.Sonata"
    iroot = "/org/MPD/Sonata"
    iface = "org.MPD.SonataInterface"

    host = 'localhost'
    port = 6600
    musicdir = '/media/MULTIMEDIA/music/'

    def __init__(self, session_bus):
        GenericAPI.__init__(self, session_bus)
    
    # Check if the player is active : Returns Boolean
    # A handle to the dbus interface is passed in : doesn't need to be used
    # if there are other ways of checking this (like dcop in amarok)
    def is_active(self, dbus_iface):
        if self.ns in dbus_iface.ListNames(): return True
        else: return False

    # Make a connection to the Player
    def connect(self):
        proxy_obj = self.session_bus.get_object(self.ns, self.iroot)
        self.playerAPI = dbus.Interface(proxy_obj, self.iface)    

    # The following return Strings
    def get_title(self):
                song = mpdclient2.connect().currentsong()
        return song.title
    
    def get_album(self):
                song = mpdclient2.connect().currentsong()
        return song.album

    def get_artist(self):
                song = mpdclient2.connect().currentsong()
        return song.artist

    def get_cover_path(self):
                artist = self.get_artist()
                album = self.get_album()
                filename = os.path.expanduser("~/.covers/" + artist + "-" + album + ".jpg")
                if os.path.isfile(filename):
                        return filename
                songfile = mpdclient2.connect().currentsong().file
                songpath = self.musicdir + os.sep + os.path.dirname(songfile)
                filename = songpath + "/cover.jpg"

                        return filename

    def play_pause(self):
                status = mpdclient2.connect().status()
                if status.state == 'play':
                        mpdclient2.connect().pause(1)
                elif status.state == 'pause':
                        mpdclient2.connect().pause(0)
                else:
                        mpdclient2.connect().play()

    def next(self):
        mpdclient2.connect().next()

    def previous(self):
        mpdclient2.connect().previous()

    def register_change_callback(self, fn):
        self.callback_fn = fn
        # Could not find a callback signal for Banshee, so just calling after some time interval
        if self.__timeout:
            gobject.source_remove(self.__timeout)
        self.__timeout = gobject.timeout_add(self.__interval * 1000, self.info_changed)

    def info_changed(self, signal=None):
        # Only call the callback function if Data has changed
        if self.__timeout:
            gobject.source_remove(self.__timeout)
        try:
            if self.__curplaying != None and not self.is_playing():
                self.__curplaying = None
                self.callback_fn()

            playinguri = self.get_title()
            if self.is_playing() and self.__curplaying != playinguri:
                self.__curplaying = playinguri
                self.callback_fn()
            self.__timeout = gobject.timeout_add(self.__interval * 1000, self.info_changed)
        except:
            # The player exited ? call callback function
            self.callback_fn()

And you have to change some lines in ~/.screenlets/NowPlaying/NowPlayingScreenlet.py :

...

PLAYER_LIST = {'Rhythmbox':'RhythmboxAPI',
                    'Listen':'ListenAPI',
                    'Banshee':'BansheeAPI',
                    'Amarok':'AmarokAPI',
                    'Exaile':'ExaileAPI',
                    'Sonata':'SonataAPI'}

PLAYER_LIST_LAUNCH = ['rhythmbox','listen','banshee','amarok','exaile','sonata --hidden']

...

This should work with other mpd clients with some modifications.

Re: January 2008 Screenshots

Is there any way of having that screenlet but without using all those "heavy" DE and compiz or beryl or whatever its called now days ??
The applet itself is very nice and "eye-candy" but it requires the other things right ?

You can use xcompmgr. Setup your xorg.conf for compositing:

Section "Extensions"
    Option         "Composite"  "Enable"
EndSection

and then run xcompmgr like this (example):

xcompmgr -l 0.5 -t 0.5 -o 0.5 -r 2 -cFf

@shijtin
Thx! Doesn't work for me though. The screenlet starts without errors but it seems like it can't connect to mpd... the song change doesn't work either. Well I'll try to figure out what's wrong wink

btw: I use this now-playing version. Maybe that's the wrong one because it's modified... witch one do you use shijtin?

Just a question I'll throw out there. Does anyone know if it's possible to click the far right/left side of the screen in Openbox to switch desktops? You can do this is pekwm, and it is a very convenient feature.

Roberth, that are some very nice screenshots. I've been playing with Evilwm on and off and the only thing I was missing was the ability to assign shortcut keys for application launches.

What chat client is that, by the way?
