What do you mean about 'odd'? Remember that these buttons are only there until the rc-file is overwritten. That is most likely during first run.don570 wrote:In some puppies the two help buttons looks odd.
In other puppies they are suitable.
Perhaps if you named them Help 1 and Help 2
and had pop-ups to explain the function.

Can pmusic's storage be moved to /mnt/home
Hi zigbert,
First let me congratulate you on the outstanding work you've done in pmusic. Although I customarily work without background distractions, I've been working on putting together a puplet for someone who's a music fan, and especially enjoys radio. So I've been exploring the various applications which run under Puppy and am very impressed by how versatile and complete pmusic is.
In order to setup receiving music from streaming sources pmusic, like other music manager's I've examined, downloads one or more indexes. These can use up a considerable amount of a Frugal Install's SaveFile. Additionally, I frequently have more than one Puppy installation, so when possible, I move cache, settings and anything else I can think of to /mnt/home and create symlinks to the various Puppies. So I was wondering into what folder(s) the indexes used by pmusic will be found, and if it was possible to move them to /mnt/home?
Thanks in advance,

Re: Can pmusic's storage be moved to /mnt/home
All Pmusic indexes are found in /root/.pmusic/mikeslr wrote:...So I was wondering into what folder(s) the indexes used by pmusic will be found, and if it was possible to move them to /mnt/home?
You can of course link to /mnt/home, but at next index-update, the new files will be located to /root/.pmusic.
Another solution would be to change the variable $WORKDIR (line 21 in /usr/local/pmusic/pmusic). If this works as expected we could easily (I think) add this option to the configuration-file.
Thank you for your liking

zigbert,
Thanks for the info, and for testing the alternative.

Hello zigbert,
Sorry if these questions have been asked before, but is there a reason why Pmusic does not have a "Stop" button?
If I play a radio stream I can click "Pause" and the playback of the audio does pause, but I can see that the data is still streaming (lights flashing).
Also, is it OK to install the latest version straight over the top of the recent versions in Lupu Plus, Slacko 533 and Racy 53 ?
Thanks.

I think Pause and Stop are 2 different functions.zigbert wrote:If I make the downloading stop while pause, is there else some reason for having a Stop-button?
With streams it is useful to be able to pause and then when you click Play again it resumes from the point where you paused so you don't lose any of the programme. I think it did do this but I will test some more. Not sure if it will work like this if you pause for a long time, but maybe the downloading needs to continue while you are paused.
If I click Stop I really want the player to disconnect from the stream server and if I click Play again obviously it will connect again and start playing from the point at which the new connection is made.
When playing files I would also expect Pause to hold the place and resume from there but Stop would just stop and wait for me to start playing the next file or start the same one but from the beginning.

It has been a while since the stop-button left the Pmusic gui. I saw this first in Spotify and felt that it was a good solution. I am glad everytime I can simplify a gui.... I can't see that a stop-button would add any new functions to Pmusic. You can stop playing by the pause/play button, and you can start from the beginning of a track by clicking on it. It would be good if more users had an opinion on this....

locale not working
Pmusic 2.6.3 working fine. The only bug is the GUI remains English despite default system language being Spanish. I'm translating the latest Pmusic and I can't see the translations on the GUI. I tried restarting X and rebooting, no changes. I have a Wary 5.3 frugal install to USB key, UTF-8 turned on.
BTW, I like the new choice for saving geometry, makes it more comfortable.

Hi Sigmund
I should learn to read code
I see your intention in the pinstall.sh and what I reference was wrong. It may even break stuff in a current running system, though will more likely just error and not run.
The stuff you intend to happen in woof can't because $HOME is not defined. Until woof supports multiuser the only way is either hard code to root or not have that routine. Also /tmp don't exist until the system is up and running. I just glanced at $HOME and didn't read the code knowing in my head $HOME can't exist in the build system. Sorry!
Maybe you could hide your code elsewhere and make it part of the pmusic initial code generation? That would work.
Cheers

Re: locale not working
I 'think' your problem is that Pmusic has changed structure of the locale-files. The older model (which you probably are using) holds the spanish file as /usr/local/pmusic/locals/es:ES_spanish, while the new file is /usr/share/locales/es/LC_MESSAGES/pmusicvicmz wrote:Pmusic 2.6.3 working fine.

No $HOME and no /tmp - is this the intended way to build up a system? When you tell this, it's not hard to see that my script fails01micko wrote: I see your intention in the pinstall.sh and what I reference was wrong.

Of course, but it wouldn't set up the roxapp or the rox-icon until you start Pmusic, and that doesn't sound like the best solution to me.01micko wrote:Maybe you could hide your code elsewhere and make it part of the pmusic initial code generation? That would work.

Hi Sigmund, I have recently been using earlier versions of Pmusic to play and rip music, but have been unable to find a way to get it to play an entire folder. Is there an easy way to add a whole folder to the playlist? And does this function only exist in more recent versions? (I think it was version 1.63 I was trying...). Thanks
