Hi Zigbert, I just installed Pmusic 2.9.19 on latest Precise Retro 541 and I noticed when I click VIEW there is only the 'now playing' option to select where on the previous versions of Pmusic ( I think) there were Classic, low powered, manager, wings, etc. Is that how it should be or am I doing something wrong?

fix for gettext

#1427 Post by rodin.s »

I guess I know how to fix gettext in pMusic. It is func_progressbar again. It's strange thing but comments between lines 104 and 106 should be deleted and then gettext works and po-file is created in MoManager.

Code: Select all

else  
echo "$(gettext 'Source not detected')" > $WORKDIR/statusbar
echo "$(($(<$WORKDIR/statusbar_error)+1))" > $WORKDIR/statusbar_error

As pMusic improves, I find it less important to offer alternative frontends.... Of course, you can still run pMusic with the Wings frontend, but you have to download it and set it as default in the preferences. Note that there is a www-button beside the frontend-chooser which lead you to the frontend homepage.

The best would be to skip the View menu, but I haven't figured out where to place 'Now Playing'.

Regarding gettext trouble

It is no problem for me to remove the commented lines, but this doesn't seem to be a pmusic bug..... I can't see any gettext related syntax in those lines.


Sigmund


edit
I have edited func_progressbar, and those lines look now like this. Hopefully ok?

Code: Select all

				else  #file/CD-track doesn't exist.
					echo "$(gettext 'Source not detected')" > $WORKDIR/statusbar
					echo "$(($(<$WORKDIR/statusbar_error)+1))" > $WORKDIR/statusbar_error
				fi

Thank you, I've got it now. Easy when you know how.

(You could swap Now Playing for View, do away with the drop-down menu for View altogether.)

Thank you for this pet, it's excellent!

Yes, I have the
108174 2012-11-10 15:08 /mnt/sda2/sources/pmusic-2.9.19.pet
and like it.

I can't seem to make the radio grabbing work, although in the past it did.
Doing this with the Radio-Hits grabber, recording will be running in background, and you can use pMusic as normal. See the 'Radio-Hits Setup' in the 'Music-source' menu for more info."
The dialog says things like
Pmusic - Radio Hits ::: kusc
Apply songs to db Apply and exit
May I have some advice, please?

Thanks,
Sheldon

every Radio-Hits entry has a config file in you data storage. If you haven't changed it the default place would be /root/.pmusic/radio-hits preset/

Can you show me the content the not-working 'file'

What Puppy are you running?

What about a screenshot if errors shows up...

Good morning, Sigmund; thank you for such a quick response.

I just looked in /root/.pmusic/radio-hits preset/
There are several files there; one of them is
/root/.pmusic/radio-hits preset/kusc

The contents are
kusc|/mnt/sda3/pmm|http://kuscstream.org/mp3/kusc128.m3u

This Puppy is Lucid Puppy 5.28

I will try to learn how to do screenshot.

At present, the directory of

/mnt/sda3/pmm/

includes
4096 2012-11-14 11:06 incomplete
5641679 2012-11-14 11:06 Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart - String Quartet in D major K575- IV. Allegretto.mp3
8164481 2012-11-14 11:00 Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart - Symphony No. 39 in E flat major KV 543- IV. Allegro.mp3
2298424 2012-11-14 10:51 Peter Tschaikowsky - Nussknacker Op.71-Marsch.mp3
3382192 2012-11-14 10:49 Antonio Vivaldi - Concerti da Camera-Concerto in G minor RV103 II. Largo.mp3
7834293 2012-11-14 10:45 Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart - Piano Concerto No. 17 in G major K453- III. Allegretto, presto.mp3
So is it correct that I should not click on either of the dialog's 'apply' buttons?

When if ever should I click, and which one, or both?

Thank you,
Sheldon

I tested the KUSC radio url, and found it stopped playing after a few seconds. I wonder if you can play it? I then picked http://www.swissradio.ch/streams/6034.m3u which I use for Classical, and it plays fine here....

Your Radio-Hits setup seems correct.

For screenshot, you'll find the utility in the graphics menu (Puppy menu).

When it comes to the 2 buttons, I see that they are not self-explaining. When you're satisfied with the grabbing, you should Exit. The grab result will then be added to your pMusic database which updates at every pMusic action. If you want to search within the latest grabbed tracks without stop grabbing, you use the Apply button, and the database will update..... I agree, this could be easier.

Yes, as below:
Now I think I see.. one pastes the URL into the "box" at the top of the left pane, and presses Enter. This adds it to the playlist.
I then picked http://www.swissradio.ch/streams/6034.m3u which I use for Classical, and it plays fine here....
Yes, also here.

--------------
EDIT: Another question, please.

Some recent files I got with RadioHits Grabber are:


4096 2012-11-15 19:25 incomplete
4318522 2012-11-15 19:24 Max Steiner - Gone with the Wind Main Title.mp3
6599929 2012-11-15 19:18 Michael Fink - Monteverdiana.mp3
10177372 2012-11-15 19:11 Franz Liszt - Mephisto Waltz #1 S 514.mp3
12414160 2012-11-15 18:58 Georges Bizet - Patrie Overture Op 19.mp3
22747420 2012-11-15 18:44 Sergei Rachmaninoff - Rhapsody on a Theme of Paganini Op 43.mp3

I guess the file name is determined by what the radio station sends, and the Pmusic software.

But when I look at them with easytag , I do not see the actual artist who performs the music, but instead the composer is in the artist field.

How can I get the artist in addition to the other data?

trackinfo

I think trackinfo by default is a good idea. I have no problems with it.

The first thing that has to be in place is meta info from the radio station. I have not seen any stations providing such info..... Pmusic is just reading the available info.

Do Precise Puppy users still have to install all the stuff on this page?
