This is a theme issue. Maybe you like the Nad theme better?greengeek wrote:I would like it if the playqueue history arrows were less prominent (especially the "clear queue" button!), and it would be handy if the actual play controls were more prominent - at the moment they look as if they are greyed out and my brain ignores them.

Thanks Zigbert - yes I do like the Nad theme, and it is very nice having the filebrowser there as a default too. I have a couple of questions:
1) I would like the filebrowser to display a default of the filesystem "/" rather than "/root" if possible. I tried to make some changes in the pmusicrc files to achieve this but could not find the correct setting. Is there a simple change i can make?
2) I would like to make the Nad theme my default. I tried to do this by changing the "export THEME" setting in /usr/local/pmusic/pmusicrc to Nad, but this does not seem to work - it still starts up as gtk. (even though Nad is definitely loaded and available in preferences).
I should note that I do not use a savefile, so I cannot retain changes in /root/.pmusic - I prefer to find a method that would achieve the changes in the original default files of pmusic as my system always boots in a 'pristine' state that does not retain previous session info.
Can you suggest where I can make these changes please?
cheers!

Yes, this is doable. Actually my mistake - I used $HOME as default instead of $BROWSERDIR as set in pmusicrc.

Thanks. Nad5 now working as default 
The $BROWSERDIR change did not work for me though - still displays contents of /root.
I did rush this test though so may have made a mistake. Will try again later
cheers!

Remember you have to change the path in pmusicrc as well:
export BROWSERDIR="/"
export BROWSERDIR="/"

Thanks Zigbert. Yes, that is working exactly as I would like now. Much appreciated!
I made myself a pet with these modifications which I will post here so I can grab it on my next boot if that is ok.

Now I'm just going to be a right pain and make another feature suggestion:
When I use the internal filebrowser and rightclick my music directory in order to "add to play queue" it adds all of the loose tracks that are in there, but does not add any of the tracks that are inside other directories inside the "Music" directory.
Is there some way to add an extra option to that rightclick menu: "Recursive add to play queue" ?
This would probably slow it down if there were too many extra directories, but it would be a nice option to have if it was possible.
Otherwise I'm going to have to learn how to make playlists

Shouldn't be too hard, but I need some days as it is not too much coding-time these days...greengeek wrote:Is there some way to add an extra option to that rightclick menu: "Recursive add to play queue" ?
It is great to get some feedback from you that are using pMusic differently than myself. I never browse for music, so it is hard for me to decide how this should be coded.
Thank you

Many thanks Zigbert - that really makes pMusic very useable for the relatively inexperienced Puppy users I look after. If anyone else wants it I have added the Nad5 theme into a modified 4.4.8 pet and also set the default browser location to "/" (filesystem) rather than "/root" - download here

Request: pmusic should open a pls file made by Audacious.
VLC player would open it correctly in April64 distro. (I checked
)
pmusic would show the name of song but wouldn't play.
Unfortunately m3u playlists are treated as ordinary basic text so
I don't want to make my script create-m3u open it up.
However I have found that pls playlists open as .audio_x-scpls
so I can make a right click script to open these playlists quite easily.

Can you post an example of such a pls file here?
Posted: Sat 07 Feb 2015, 18:30
You're in luck! I happen to have a playlist.
To make a playlist in Audacious --->
Menu command , then the user must supply the extension --> pls
A wikipedia entry has a good explanation
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/PLS_%28fil ... 9#Examples
Note that in April64 a m3u and a pls file is treated differently by operating system.
(see image)
m3u is treated as basic text whereas right-clicks on the pls file opens it as
.audio_x-scpls

Maybe my m3u file is treated as basic text because I didn't start it with...
I'll have to test.
It would open up as .audio_x-scm3u
I'll have to check this???
