Songbird - Music player, with Gstreamer

[Pelo]

Songbird finds some information on the web about album, ant that is all, at Pelo's home sweet home. But i am not an expert about proxy and the stuff around what to use.

A fork of Songbird, discussed here: http://murga-linux.com/puppy/viewtopic. ... 818#951818

i Use Nightingale too, with some Puppies. The difference is about videos. Songbird can play them. Nightingale does not. At pelo's home. That is not a 'parole d'évangile'
We don't miss jukeboxes with Puppy Linux. One or two years ago, i browse the forum to check them.. Hum many are hard not to install, but to play. I never really understood dependancies.
Songbird will quite easy by our music lovers . Big ? Yes big.
Gnome-Mplayer would be enough of course. But french like to change the menu.

mikeslr , i don't know how to empty Songbird. Any idea ?

EDIT: Aragon has packaged 1.0.0 at http://www.murga-linux.com/puppy/viewto ... 8d1c43dde4



UPDATED TO 0.6.1!

This is the package for Songbird 0.6.1, a music player with similar features to iTunes, Musicmatch, and Amarok. The difference is that it doesn't require any libraries besides gstreamer (which is required by every similar application anyway) and liboil (required by gstreamer). This package tested in Dingo

From the Songbird page:
"Songbird is a desktop Web player, a digital jukebox and Web browser mash-up. Like Winamp, it supports extensions and skins feathers. Like Firefox®, it is built from Mozilla, cross-platform and open source."

From the Gstreamer page:
"GStreamer is a library that allows the construction of graphs of media-handling components, ranging from simple Ogg/Vorbis playback to complex audio (mixing) and video (non-linear editing) processing.
Applications can take advantage of advances in codec and filter technology transparently. Developers can add new codecs and filters by writing a simple plugin with a clean, generic interface.
GStreamer is released under the LGPL."

First you need gstreamer:
http://dotpups.de/dotpups/Multimedia/So ... .10.13.pet

Then liboil.
http://dotpups.de/dotpups/Multimedia/So ... 0.3.12.pet

Then gst-plugins-base.
http://dotpups.de/dotpups/Multimedia/So ... .10.13.pet

Then the other plugins in no particular order.
http://dotpups.de/dotpups/Multimedia/So ... 0.10.5.pet
http://dotpups.de/dotpups/Multimedia/So ... 0.10.4.pet
http://dotpups.de/dotpups/Multimedia/So ... 0.10.6.pet

Then Songbird. (WARNING: 22mb! NOT SMALL.)
http://dotpups.de/dotpups/Multimedia/So ... -0.6.1.pet

The executable is in the binary search path, so just type "songbird" at the command prompt.

You will still be told that some dependencies are missing, but as far as I can tell they have no effect.

I have only done a short test, so there may be some small problems.

Have fun with your 'Bird!
