Since most folders are sorted alphabetically, a random play of folder option would be cool.

If you want randomized playback, look at the Carousel in v4.8.

PeasyMP3 sends all audio files (other than MP3 and WAV) to mplayer. So as long as your Puppy has a basic version of mplayer, it will work fine.

and it works fine !

and it works fine ! This morning i fed it with a cinquantaine* of new songs. Gracias RCRSN 51 to deal with las aplliccaciones de los aficinados de musica. Es un trabajo util.
Useful applications.
*cinquantaine > About fifty songs
Some VIPs in the forum can tell what they want, but they have nothing more professional to provides (and working in Puppy, of course).
What i am looking for since weeks is a CD player that can search on the web titles of songs playing. It looks so easy ... :!:
A CD player, not a Mp3 player.
There was no topic for Gnome Player on our forum 'Multimedia' :!: :!: :!:

Peasy MP3 does the job.. OB-Precise

#82 Post by Pelo »

Peasy MP3 does the job.. OB-Precise That is enough for me. Excepted when i look for a player for my sunday afternoons.
Saturday : a foolish idea, i want to use a jukebox for ... my Pyppies CDs
Trying to use the Puppy's names as a play list, With CD cover..
Stp No answer needed. Peasy MP3 for standard usage is enough, that has to be known.
Ah music play list does not change when song changes to next... :?:

PeasyMP3

#84 Post by Yogi »

Hello rcrsn51,

I'm remastering Quirky 1.4.2 Baby and want to use Peasy cause it's small and makes use of /usr/bin/aplay. No problem playing mp3 files but it will not stream internet stations. I guess I could use Cmus or mplayer for that purpose but I would really like to figure this out. I've followed your instructions every way possible. I stream internet radio all the time using a variety of apps but this one had got me stumped! What am I not seeing?

Thanks

PeasyMP3 definitely plays internet radio streams, but it needs mplayer.

It only uses aplay for a few formats like mp3 or wav.

Code: Select all

case "$EXT" in
			mp3) lame --decode -h "$FULLPATH" - 2>/dev/null | aplay >/dev/null 2>&1 ;;
			wav|au) aplay "$FULLPATH" >/dev/null 2>&1 ;;
			cd) cdda2wav -H $(cat "$FULLPATH") - 2>/dev/null | aplay -f cd >/dev/null 2>&1 ;;
			url) mplayer -ao alsa $(cat "$FULLPATH" | tr -d [:cntrl:]) >/dev/null 2>&1 ;; 
			pls|m3u|asx) mplayer -ao alsa -playlist "$FULLPATH" >/dev/null 2>&1 ;; 
			mid) timidity -Ow -o- "$FULLPATH" 2>/dev/null | aplay >/dev/null 2>&1 ;;
			*) mplayer -ao alsa "$FULLPATH" >/dev/null 2>&1 ;;
esac

OK. I have mplayer and it does play internet radio streams. Obviously, Peasy recognizes the .mp3 file and then uses aplay. But for some reason it's not recognizing the .m3u file and triggering mplayer. How does PeasyMP3 call mplayer for this?

Right-click on the m3u file and use Open With > PeasyMP3.

Or set the run action to: peasymp3 "$@"

I made my own rustradio.m3u file and it works for me.

I don't recognize the GUI front-end that you found for mplayer, but you don't need it. PeasyMP3 will be the front-end.

Do you actually have mplayer installed? Type: mplayer

Have already done as you suggested. Mp3 files play fine but .m3u or .pls will not, even though they are shown in the playlist. How did you make your rustradio.m3u file? Mine is simply like this:

#EXTM3U

http://rustradio.org:8000

Shouldn't need anything else. Works in Cmus, Mocp and Mplayer.

I have the same .m3u file as you.

Go to where the file is located, open a terminal and type:

mplayer -playlist rustradio.m3u

That's interesting - in the attached image, the upper terminal was opened from the desktop and failed. The lower terminal was opened where the .m3u file was located and worked. So it's not an mplayer issue. But I thought that when peasymp3 sees an .m3u/.pls file it's supposed to execute the following script:

pls|m3u|asx) mplayer -ao alsa -playlist "$FULLPATH" >/dev/null 2>&1 ;;

And it doesn't appear to do that.

Also, the .m3u files contain the URL/HTTP address of the radio station, so why should a "path" even matter?

My command was: mplayer -playlist rustradio.m3u

It just names the file, not the full path to its location on your hard drive. So you need to run the command where the file is located. All Linux commands work that way.

Run: mplayer -ao alsa -playlist rustradio.m3u

Okay. I understand the terminal/path procedure. But, even when using peasymp3carousel to specify the folder where the mp3 and m3u files are located, peasymp3 will only play the mp3s and not the m3u. Notice that the /mnt/sda2/mp3 folder is listed in peasymp3carousel, peasymp3 playlist, and the symbolic links are in /tmp/peasymp3/peasycarousel. So there shouldn't be an issue with the "path". The locations of the files are there. It appears to be a hand-off/recognition issue with peasy. I don't know, for me, this is harder than it should be.

Here is what I would suggest.

Get a standard Puppy that already has mplayer, like a Slacko.

Install PeasyMP3.

Don't worry about the carousel. Run your .m3u file with the right-click procedure.
