Re: Kagu Media Player Released 1.0.6
 
Quick Question:
Is there a way to force the installation of dependencies?

I'm missing the follow and some are not listed on the App manager.
libgnokii4
libsdl-ttf2.0.0
libgdbm3
libreadline4 > 4.3-1

ummm, python 2.5 is the only real dependency. Install that and it should take care of everything else. You can get it from http://pymaemo.garage.maemo.org/

I was just enjoying my compilation directory playing and after several songs I wanted to check the title of one song. I touched the screen to get the display back and noticed that the song list didn't actually scroll to have the song on the screen. I had to scroll the list manually to see the highlighted song. Is this the intended behavior? I was thinking that the playing song would be on the screen (ie, the list scrolled by itself).

No, that's a bug. I think it used to work in previous releases. Ticket: https://www.guardiani.us/projects/ka...ket/92#preview

I'm confused. Probably just being stupid ... but how do I just play an album? Do I have to add all the songs to a playlist manually?

Ok tapping on the album cover centers the cover but the size is no more than 10% bigger. Is that normal or a "bug"?

The CD+ icon adds an entire album to the playlist. It will start playing automatically.

Did you choose "High resolution album covers" when you ran kagu-scanner? If so, they should be a good bit larger. Some albums aren't of course. But most are. It just depends on what last.fm sends you.

Remember, if you have a cover.jpg, we'll use that instead. So if your cover.jpg is small, it'll be small when you tap the album.

We don't actually zoom on the albums. If we did that, they'd look terrible and pixelated. Instead, we show them at their normal size (1:1). If the normal size is larger than the viewable area, we scale it down to the viewable area.

For best results, use a cover.jpg with a very high resolution. But last.fm's high resolution album art is usually pretty good. For a good example of a high res last.fm cover image, check out the middle screenshot here: http://maemo.org/downloads/product/kagu/ (it's a lot bigger than +10%)

Thanks for the info. It seems most of my covers are not able to be zoom (only one).

That's odd. Post some of the album + artist names here. I'll look into it.

... ... ...

I have the "High resolution" checked but still don't get much bigger images.

I have cover.jpg files in all sub-directories.

To get good large high resolutions images in Kagu what is the best size to save the 'cover.jpg' files?
