pMusic 6.0.0

[zigbert]

If it can be of any help. I have uploaded pmusic versions 2.0.3, 2.1.9, 2.2.1 and 2.3.0 to the Stardust repo

I booted Lucid Puppy 5.2.8-004 with pfix=ram, so as to not use any save files.

pmusic 1.8.3 shows the gui

pasting in

http://radiodad.com/images/Radio_Dad-_S ... _FINAL.mp3

plays it, and can export to MP3 on my Hard drive

I'm posting with Dillo, so can't do much here.

What do you advise as a step-by-step way to use the
most recent pmusic?

----------------

update 8:16 Am Eastern time

Installed 2.4.1, pmusic upgrade .003, and streamripper

pmusiic loads into tray, no gui

Code: Select all

gtkdialog /root/.pmusic/tmp/xml_Pmusic

Ok, so I have now followed your footsteps...

- fresh install in Puppy 5.2.8.004
- Pmusic_update pack 002 from main post (couldn't find any 003 package)
- Installed the latest 2.4.1 Pmusic

Everything works as expected

Thank you, Sigmund.

I have tried that several times, and the GUI doesn't occur.

Code: Select all

 gtkdialog -f  /root/.pmusic/tmp/xml_Pmusic

** ERROR **: gtkdialog: Error in line 9, near token 'string': syntax error

However, I tried it on my Acer Aspire One laptop, and the GUI does occur.

I woke up this morning with a notice sticked to my forehead - Ask Sheldon if he has checked the md5sum of the download/burn. But now you say it is hardware specific..... I am out of words. (and that is not often )

Sigmund

Well, no, I didn't check the md5sum of any download files.
Where would I have found sums to check against?

I am not sure the version of Puppy Linux 5.2.8 on the nettbook is the same one as on the large computer.
I think there is a way to check, but don't recall.

I have been using newer versions of Puppy frugal by simply copying the vmlinuz, initrd.gz, and lupu_528.sfs
(not burning)

As I understand it: make a fresh install of Puppy (ie, don't use a save file)
Install the pmusic upgrade .002
And install pmusic-2.4.2.pet

On the big computer as well as on the small one, the

Code: Select all

# gtkdialog -f /root/.pmusic/tmp/xml_Pmusic 

** ERROR **: gtkdialog: Error in line 9, near token 'string': syntax error 

aborting...

happens.

However, the gui works on the Acer netbook, but not on the Dell Dimension 8300.

I just copied the Puppy files to a new Linux partition on the sda drive, which is an IDE drive. I had been using it from a FAT32 partition on sdb, which is a SATA drive.

Same behavior
I see that /usr/local/pmusic/pmusic_tray is running.

While on the netbook,

Code: Select all

ps | grep -i 'pmusic'

shows several lines which include the word 'pmusic'

** update **

Hm, somewhere on the small computer I found

Code: Select all

gtkdialog4 -f /root/pmusic/tmp/xml_Pmuaic -G +115+0

So on the large computer , this seems to work:

Code: Select all

pmusic -G +115+0

Perhaps this may give a clue?

Thank you.

The problem with ffmpeg in Wary is it was compiled with disable-network.
I had to install ffmpeg_runall-0.7.2-p4.pet and streamripper-1.64.6.pet and now radio stations work.

Thank you for sharing your knowledge. Have you mentioned this for Barry? For many radio-stations, just ffmpeg should work, but streamripper makes things trustful and adds new features as ripping and show info of playing track in the statusbar.

-G +115+0 is bound to gtkdialog, not Pmusic.

Yes I posted a message in the wary bug forum.

I see many radio stations are not working, is the index too old ?

When a station is not working , pmusic shows for instance :
[tcp @ 0x80653a0] TCP connection to localhost:8002 failed: Connection refused
http://www.laradiodesebb.com/stream/laradiodesebb.m3u
And it repeats it without ending, until something else is played ?

When playing another track, the "little arrow" stays in front of the previous track.

Track info doesnt work for web music or radio stations.

When exiting pmusic, it shows :
/usr/local/pmusic/func: line 129: /root/.pmusic/tmp/DONT_SAVE_PRESET: No such file or directory
rm: cannot remove `/root/.pmusic/tmp/SEARCH_*': No such file or directory

Version 2.4.3

The problem is not the Pmusic index, but the db at radiosure.com which the source of the index.

Can't reproduce these in Slacko 5.3.2.10 (radio-stations has only info about stream and rating as expected)
