Thanks, but I started over. I'll have to think twice before I try to update Seamonkey to the latest version,, because it breaks Gxine, (I mean version 1.1.10)

I just tried the new Pmusic 0.1.2-TR It did play the songs, and I was able to make a playlist. However, after making the playlist (it took a long time and lots of CPU and memory) it would play, but none of the buttons or options worked. I tried to save the playlist, but it did not. (It did not even work on reboot) So I looked into where Pmusic was installed, found the playlist there, copied it, and opened the playlist in Gxine. Gxine works, but thanks to Pmusic for creating my playlist for me. I had 3000+ songs, and they were in a lot of different folders and would have taken me forever to add them all manually. But, at least I got my playlist. (I'll try any more update to Pmusic, but I'm backing up my playlist) |

markofkane If you made a playlist with 3000 songs, gtkdialog would be like a slow snail. Everytime you push a button that require an update of the playlist, gtkdialog will keep on "forever". (and maybe freeze). I never thought of this kind of use of Pmusic. If Gxine works for you, that absolutely great, but it would be nice to hear if Pmusic works after disable the playlist in the preferences dialog. Sigmund _________________ Stardust resources |

I opened it, and it won't even let me clear the playlist. I suppose I could delete it in the pmusic folder. (That's what I wanted all along, was a program that imported all songs like Windows Media Player or Winamp does) Edit, I got it to clear, and it plays one song just fine!! 
I got it to play 2 songs. What's the limit? Thanks!! |

Tested on 3.01 full HD install with a thousand extra libs. Runs well but high cpu usage +/- 8% just idle . Plays streaming files. plays long files fine. 1 hour tested. When Loading playlists from other programs, (.pls) which have 2 extra lines one called playlist one called Number of entries = (n) any song selected and pressing play causes a loop. pressing stop several time quickly stops the loop but no play. imported m3u playlists seem to work fine 
Seems to have a problem with the directory listings. When the playlist is in the same directory with no path it works. Several crashes on stop, (Gui only) Progress indicator hangs and jumps on some mp3s Skip forward causes ffmpeg to max the processor. also several clicks occasionally starts a second playback at another spot. Suggestions: Drag and drop to playlist. Color themes other than red. Drag to position in file. Looks very promising from a XMMS fan. The main reason I have been using XMMS was for it's minimal cpu usage and it's fast indexing. I hope this is helpful. ~Pep _________________ Puppy Linux... It just works! |

peppyy Thanks for great feedback 1. pls files are not tested 
2. If m3u with directories fails for you, please test more and report back. It works for me. 3. Your notes on progress bar and cpu-usage are mentioned in the main post. 4. drag'n drop and a slider is something we both wish, but gtkdialog is limited. To change the red, just use other *.png in /usr/local/pmusic. _________________ Stardust resources |

peppyy I'm looking right now at the pls-support. I thought that gxine used pls, but that format looked as something else. My playlist file looks like this:
Googling the pls format gave me this syntax:
Do you know anything about this? What program do you use to make pls-file? What playlist format are common? I have only used m3u. Sigmund _________________ Stardust resources |

By the way, I can play flac files using ffmpeg & aplay like this: ffmpeg -i mule080309d1_01_John_The_Revelator.flac -f au - | aplay I'm using the standard Puppy 4 ffmpeg. Are you not able to? |

This is what I got when trying to play a flac. It should be said that I only got ONE album with flac files, so I haven't tested widely. I just accepted that it wouldn't work. Are there several versions of the flac format? Do you have any knowledge on this area?

zigbert, I did this -
and it worked fine ... although there was a 5 second wait before the track started. I guess that's the cost of using such a large application as ffmpeg. Using the flac application (in Puppy4.1alpha) works much better -
Playback is instant. Then I tried Pmusic 0.1.3. At first launch it went into some form of loop and I had to restart X. The second time it launched OK. When I tried to load the same flac file as before, the load dialogue stayed onscreen and no sound. In the terminal I could see various error messages. Then ffmpeg or aplay were messed up. The same ffmpeg command that I could run earlier no longer worked, giving this error message

That works for me too. I didn't have any delay on my system with ffmpeg though. I also have some flac files that won't play in audacious so I'm guessing maybe it's what is used to encode them. I'm always able to decode them with flac though so tempestuous' soultion should work in all cases. |
