pMusic 6.0.0

Please try to play a local audiofile in Pmusic, and then find the file /root/.pmusic/tmp/exec. This file contains the executable command that Pmusic generates. Mine looks like this:

Code: Select all

#!/bin/sh
exec ffmpeg -i '/mnt/sda2/mp3/Epica - Caught in a web.mp3' -ss 130  -f au - 2>> /root/.pmusic/tmp/ffmpeg_output | aplay  2> /root/.pmusic/tmp/aplay_error

You will see that errors are pointed to external files ( 2>> /root/.pmusic/tmp/ffmpeg_output and 2> /root/.pmusic/tmp/aplay_error )

What output do you get if you execute the same command in a terminal without redirecting the errors?Mine example would be the command:

Code: Select all

ffmpeg -i '/mnt/sda2/mp3/Epica - Caught in a web.mp3' -ss 130  -f au - | aplay

Latest gtk dialog compile could be good to have as downloadable link in the first page. Most Puppies still dont have it preinstalled.

[zigbert]

I could easy offer the gtkdialog-0.7.21 pack, but ffmpeg-0.8.x must be compiled for the different Puppies. I guess new releases will offer both.

Just tested Pmusic 2.0 in Dpup Exprimo with Iguleders today uploaded Ffmpeg-0.8.2. I installed missing id3info (id-tools and libid3) and I used self compiled recent gtkdialog (no gtkdialog errors when Pmusic was lauched in console).
It works !!!
Only net radio streams does not play. No errors in console, Pmusic announces "Connecting..." for awhile and then it drops, usually starts to play mp3 from playlist next.

Anyway for mp3 in hdd, cover art shows, other information downloads from net and so on.
Equalizer I didnt test. In fact, I dont know which package and where should I download it. I know only one pet which 01micko uploaded to the Slacko thread.

You will have to compile alsaequal and CAPS (ladspa lib) for squezze. In my brainwave repo there is a lupu version but the pinstall.sh needs to be updated, if you get the Slacko pet and crack it open you will see the correct place and syntax for asoundrc.

Cheers

[pemasu]

Thank you 01micko. It will be sure in my todo list.

[zigbert]

It works !!!

Good news for me

Only net radio streams does not play. No errors in console, Pmusic announces "Connecting..." for awhile and then it drops,

There seems to be less focus for internet streams in the 'house' of ffmpeg development. ffmpeg plays some internet radios, but far less than it used to do..... Pmusic is ready whenever ffmpeg is......

I compiled yesterday ffmpeg-0.8.4 in dpup, I got compile tips from 01micko.
Pmusic-2.1.3 works with Dpup Exprimo. Radio streams works now ok. I will include ffmpeg-0.8.4 and your latest pmusic version to the Exprimo.
Thank you of continued improvements.

With Wings I have had all the time problems. Pmusic halts with below information when launched in console. I have tried different gtkdialog binaries, I even compiled svn of yesterday version.

Code: Select all

# pmusic
/usr/local/pmusic/pmusic: line 357: 12393 Aborted                 $GTKDIALOG -p Pmusic -G +"$X"+"$Y" 2> $STDERR
/usr/local/pmusic/func: line 7: 12389 Terminated              $APPDIR/pmusic_tray
#

If this report gives you insight what should I do, I would be happy. I would like to use Wings as default window preset with some nice theme, and radio stations preinstalled. That is my vision for next Dpup Exprimo version.

[zigbert]

pemasu
I had to check here that Wings works for me in Slacko B4 - it does...hmmmm.

first:
try to execute pmusic --debug and see if any valuable errors come to surface.

second:
Line 354 in /usr/local/pmusic/pmuisc is
#echo "$Pmusic" > /root/gtk
Please unhash it and post /root/gtk here. Maybe I can see any incompatibility in the xml code.
