Thank you for testing pMusic 3!!!

Jamendo:
How did you reach Footsteps by Lena Selyanina
- Did you choose on Top100 classical in pMusic menu?
- Did you choose from the overview list?
- Did you browse inside the jamendo index downloaded by pMusic?
- Did you search in pMusic?
- Did you paste url directly into searchfield?
As I recall, could not figure out how to play radio streams.
Interesting!
If radio-index is missing there should be a message like this

My native language is not english, so it would be nice if someone guides me to the correct words. The intention by the message is to point the user to the setup window.

I would say it this way: See 'Music sources' menu -> Radio stations -> Setup

01micko requested a long time ago support of local album art.

At first attempt, pMusic is looking in the track-path, looking for albumart with this simple code.

Code: Select all

TMP="`dirname "$FILE"`";
LOCAL_ARTWORK="`find "$TMP" -maxdepth 1  -type f -printf "%p\n" | grep -iE "jpg|png" | grep -m 1 -E "albumart|album_art|cover"
Improvements are welcome...


Since the albumart function now supports local files as well as URLs, it is also possible to manually set a image file to albumart.

I have uploaded new release 2.9.3
In addition to the major stuff told in the latest posts, there have been a lot of bugfixing.

I will not promise a feature freeze yet, but focus will be bugs from now.
Please (re)move /root/.pmusic - also if you have installed test-version 2.9.2. If you pointed 'Data storage' to another location (in the preferences), please also delete the file index_mymusic.

Operating System: SolidPup 511

incl radio after I installed streamripper

Don't know why I couldn't make it work under Lucid Puppy 5.2.8-005

Will be grateful if someone can help; I really want to run only the LuPu.

Sigmund, would you post a link to the version of gtkdialog that Pmusic requires? I can't find it in Racy Puppy's repository. A .pet would be nice. :)

2.9.3 testing

I happened to have installed Solid Pup (based on Wary) a few days ago, and had noticed somewhere on this forum that it included the gtkdialog version 0.8.2

I copied the gtkdialog from SolidPup /usr/bin to an HD directory.

After re-booting to Lucid Puppy 5.2.8-005, I copied the gtkdialog to /usr/bin/ ,
/usr/local/bin/ , and /usr/local/sbin/

Also, I changed /usr/local/pmusic/pmusic

Code: Select all

#set gtkdialog executable - puppy specific
## mod SI 10/22/12
## if type gtkdialog4 > /dev/null 2>&1; then
##        export GTKDIALOG=gtkdialog4
## else
        export GTKDIALOG=gtkdialog
## fi
Likely there's a better way to do this.

gtkdialog4 is sure i bug. I guess Barry will give it the name gtkdialog 5 (I wonder how many versions he will accept in the end.)

I have change the code to:

Code: Select all

#set gtkdialog executable - puppy specific
for I in gtkdialog gtkdialog5; do
	GTKDIALOG=$(which $I) && break
done

I don't know where to fine gtkdialog-0.8.2 for Racy, but you might try the one for

Slacko 5.4 (attached)
Lupu 525
Exprimo


Please backup the original gtkdialog

gtkdialog problems

Flash, I see that you're using Racy, which I never have.

I'm using Lucid Puppy 5.2.8. When I removed gtkdialog4 so that pmusic would work, Puppy setup didn't. So I put gtkdialog4 back where it was.

I don't have the symbolic link for gtkdialog like you do. What if you just delete that symbolic link or rename it, and put the gtkdialog from Zigbert in that directory?

Hopefully he or other expert can help. I guess there's a thread for Racy, where people might know how to handle this?

Rename gtkdialog4 to keep a backup.
pMusic 2.9.3 is looking for gtkdialog4, so the new gtkdialog should be named gtkdialog4. Next release of pMusic will be using gtkdialog which is not Puppy specific.

A cool oneliner.
pMusic 3 supports plugins, and I think screenlets belongs there. Pwidgets has one, but a standalone would be much better - what about gt2desklet

Pmusic 3 beta is doing what I ask of it :)

One issue, which isn't a bug, as any application which has the setting has the same issue, is that if you choose your sound card in the preferences (other than default) the equalizer does not work.

For those that don't know, Pequalizer is a "plugin" for Pmusic (optional dependency). It is actually a system wide equalizer. It depends though on your settings in whatever player you are using. The settings must be either "default" or "alsa".

I'll put this in writing as part of the Pmusic FAQ, it will basically have a brief "howto" for Pequalizer.

One bug. My sound card needs PCM set in the preferences but only Master is shown so the volume control does nothing for me. If you need more info let me know.

Hmmm... pMusic detects playback channels by the command

Code: Select all

amixer controls | grep 'Playback Volume'
What output do you get from only

Code: Select all

amixer controls

Thank you
Sigmund
