Re: YouAmp - yet another Music player for Maemo
 

in order to get ogg support, you have to enable the "extras-devel" repository and install gstreamer-ivorbis.

Re: YouAmp - yet another Music player for Maemo
 

Thanks for the tip MadMan, I ran apt-get install gstreamer0.10-plugins-ivorbis and now my ogg files play just fine.

How can I tell youamp to ignore scanning certain directories for its database? I did a :/# du -l | grep -i youamp and couldn't find a .conf file to edit. It's picking up all the wayfinder direction sound clips. I only need it to scan a single directory.

st5150 - as MadMan2k said above, the feature to specify folders didn't make it into the current release, but is planned.

(hopefully the feature to "remember shuffle" will make it too) - ;)

Re: YouAmp - yet another Music player for Maemo
 

I am having some problems with the latest version of YouAmp, 0.3.7, that were not present in previous versions.

1) As YouAmp advances to playing the next song in the list, the highlighted song in the song list does not advance to match. It stays stuck on the first song played.

2) The bold text at the top of the window that normally lists the currently playing song name with the album and artist now always says "No Track."

3) Songs start playing at a very low volume. I have to go to preferences and touch "No Replaygain Amp" by changing the value from 0.0 to 0.1 and back to 0.0 to get normal volume.

Is anyone else experiencing this? I have tried completely uninstalling and reinstalling YouAmp to no avail.

If I run youamp-player from the terminal, I get the following when playing the first song:

"get_seek: player not ready
python2.5[2428]: GLIB CRITICAL ** GStreamer - get_bus_source_dispatch: assertion 'message != NULL' failed
get_seek: player not ready"

Each subsequent song get a few more "Player not ready" messages.

YouAmp is still my favorite player, and I appreciate all the work going into it.

The problem is this:

The Youamp packager did not specify all of the python dependencies, and so it cannot run. It will generate python errors.

For those of us who are Linux familiar, but Debian ignorant, or for those who don't want to be familiar, this should be fixed.

I don't want to set up apt-get because I don't want to boot off a card, and the apt-get repository databases eat a ton of space.

So, I have tried installing from the web, and it gives me a list of missing dependencies. I will try too add the extras-devel repository to the installer app -- sure wish there was a way to click and add those -- and add the dependencies manually ...

Right now I am getting:

library.py line 151 in run

NameError: global name 'sys' is not defined.

Re: YouAmp - yet another Music player for Maemo
 

Got all dependencies fixed, reinstalled, and same issue :(

Re: YouAmp - yet another Music player for Maemo
 

cannot find python-mutagen ...

Same problem:

Re: YouAmp - yet another Music player for Maemo
 

Well, I was experiencing identical symptoms to Stephe after upgrading to 0.3.7 (when progressing to next song, not changing and volume too low until hitting volume change), at least while playing ogg files (I don't think mp3s were affected, at least not as severely).
After applying today's 2008 Feature Upgrade youamp no longer works - hangs while 'updating database', and playlist is empty.
Terminal says:
Exception in thread Thread-1:

Re: YouAmp - yet another Music player for Maemo
 

YouAmp 0.3.8 is out. Should fix most of the issues mentioned here.
