pMusic 6.0.0

[don570]

I was able to get pmusic to work in April 64 when the dependencies were installed.
I saw a couple of spelling errors
I suggest 'occurred' rather than 'happened'

pmusic worked correctly with my script 'create-m3u'
however strangely pmusic played in the background . It doesn't use
the -b option so I don't understand.
The music files do add properly to playlist though.

Oddity. ----> when launching in terminal

# exec pmusic /usr/local/bin/pmusic "audio25100.m3u" &

rm: cannot remove ‘/root/.pmusic/tmp/AUTOPLAY’: No such file or directory

Fixed - thank you

Oddity. ----> when launching in terminal

# exec pmusic /usr/local/bin/pmusic "audio25100.m3u" &

This command is not valid:
- $1 is an executable - pMusic will try to add it to the playqueue, but obviously fail.
- $2 is a playlist without a path - pMusic doesn't support it. use ./audio25100.m3u instead to tell pMusic to look at active position.

use ./audio25100.m3u instead to tell pMusic to look at active position.

I should have known

I'm running April64. The LADSPA CAPS package isn't in the package manager or on the system, so pMusic fails to start; it "can't find /usr/lib/ladspa/caps.so". I installed CAPS 9.24 from source but now pMusic fails with "Unable to find label 'Eq' in plugin library file /usr/lib/ladspa/caps.so", because 'Eq' was renamed to 'Eq10' in CAPS 9.11. Does anyone have CAPS sources older than 9.11? The website only hosts the latest sources and I can only find compiled packages when I search...

[zigbert]

pMusic does not depend on alsaequalizer, so if pMusic does not start, I guess something else is wrong. What is your terminal output when executing 'pmusic' - alternatively 'pmusic --debug' for more feedback.

It seems the error was being thrown by pEqualizer. I uninstalled pEqualizaer and reinstalled pMusic, and now it fails with

Code: Select all

/usr/local/pmusic/pmusic: line 491:  7508 Segmentation fault
$GTKDIALOG -f $WORKDIR/xml_pmusic${XML_SUFFIX} -G +"$X"+"$Y" 2> $STDERR &

So my gtkdialog is version 0.8.3. According to the PPM, I should have 0.8.4 rc514 built-in. I'll set gtkdialog straight and report back.

Edit: Ouch, gtkdialog is not worth messing with without a CLI for the PPM. I've installed pMusic 3.3.0 and it works great. I'll just stick with it for now.

Hi,
The CLI for PPM is 'petget', it can be used to install and remove packages, any type, PET, DEB, etc.

I have finally decided to give the most recent gtkdialog source, revision 514 from SVN, a go, and this will be in the next Quirky April.

I plan to also upgrade to zigbert's latest Pmusic, etc, that need this version of gtkdialog.

Great news

[don570]

I found a small bug in pmusic 4.7.0

I tested in Barry's recent werewolf 64 bit and newest Slacko 6.0.8.1

Procedure: Make sure that there is no hidden pmusic folder in /root

Set an alarm with pclock time tools (or just use pschedule by itself)
to launch pmusic with pmusic -B /path/to/sound

pmusic will work as expected however there is a warning on screen
that won't go away until I launch pmusic from start menu.

'top' command shows that gtkdialog process hasn't been killed

I am running werewolf64 (VESA module is needed because the graphic
screen is instable)


pmusic 4.7.1 solves the popup warning

I spotted another bug

The right side of music list popup is cut off (see image)

I haven't checked if this is a specific problem to VESA

Version 4.7.2
See main post

Changelog
- Packed with xz compression
- Bugfix: Some gui-updates fails in Puppy 6.3.0 (gtkdialog checkbox: file-monitor="true" in combination with milliseconds="true")
- Bugfix: Builtin filebrowser doesn't work in Puppy 6.3.0

Version 4.7.2

Thanks, Sigmund; it didn't install under Lucid Puppy Super2.

Sheldon

[zigbert]

Ok, so Lucid doesn't support xz compression.
I will keep that in mind.
4.7.2 should only improve usage on Slacko 6.3, so this release should not be important for Lucid...
