Re: [Announce] Music Player with Equalizer - symfonie
 
First of all, I fully salute the creators of Symfonie for creating a media player with an equaliser. I frequently use the app for those tunes that need that extra kick.

I would also second the motion for presets with the equaliser. At times, I feel like I don't know what I'm doing with the levels and all...

Is there a way to shuffle all songs?

Re: [Announce] Music Player with Equalizer - symfonie
 
Code thank you a lot for your efforts. I just dont use the music player because its just "to smart" for me. I'd really hope someone does the same for the picture/video-player as well.

Please keep up your good work and lets hope *** cast a spell on everyone that try to make "smart software" in the future.

Intuitive software is good, smart software is dumb.

Agree. I'd like to be able to play a directory and his subdirectories, I have all my music organizated like:

ACDC/2008-Black Ice/01 Rock N' Roll Train.mp3

So if I want ot hear all the discography of ACDC, I don't want to select first disc, then next...


I also have a PROBLEM. When the last sng of a folder ends, it continues with the first one, doing an eternal LOOP...

Thanks! That would be really helpful. The required sizes are: 26x26, 48x48, and 64x64 transparent PNG.

Is this ok?

There already is one for the video player.
Just install mplayer and use sib for the gui.

It looks great. Not sure how you can give me the file. Could you send me the file URL via PM or something like that.

Again, good job!

Can you change the pitch to make song play faster or slower? Or are you planning on doing this. Would love this feature. Would install it straight away! Cheers

Re: [Announce] Music Player with Equalizer - symfonie
 
The equalizer window seems to have a strange behaviour: when its opened, it stays on top of the main window.

so when you switch to the main window without closing the equalizer, the equalizer "steals" the focus, and you cant reach the main window

it's specially annoying if you want to stop the music, then you are forced to close the equalizer

Re: [Announce] Music Player with Equalizer - symfonie
 
Ok, this is one awesome mp3 player :D!!

Just wanted to ask a question. Could these features be implemented, or is it impossible?

When Device Screen is Locked:

One tap on volume button = Skip / Previous Track
Long press on volume button = Increase / Decrease volume
Camera button = Play / Pause / 2 or more seconds press = Stop

symfonie uses 100% cpu all the time and stutters badly if i do anything while music is playing.

anyone else having this problem?

Is due to equalizer, mafw-gst-eq-renderer eats lots of resources (hope anybody develops an alternate equalizer less cpu-hungry) :D

I was having this problem today as well. However, running both Conky and Symfonie was consuming roughly 60% CPU. Enabling and disabling the equalizer was only consuming about 5% more CPU. Running MicroB in addition was maxing it out at 100%.

Tried switching to VLC which alone was flat out 100% CPU. Enabled visualizations which totally locked things up... :(

Chrome 2010-08-01 08:22

Re: [Announce] Music Player with Equalizer - symfonie
 
The previous build of symfonie used roughly 15-20% CPU even with equalizer enabled. So i guess something went wrong with this release.

Hello Code and thank you (again) for this app.
Can you comment about your intentions for flac?

fareed_xtreme 2010-08-10 20:56

Re: [Announce] Music Player with Equalizer - symfonie
 
Well, This is the music Player I use when playing music in my car... It makes the stock soundas if there is a base tube somewhere :P Well, I loved the players output capacity especially becauseof the equilizer but I would like to put in that the interface isnt an eye candy :P LoL. What I having a this point in my mind is that, I would like the Player to show a notification of any kind when the song changes and the screen lights turn on for a brief period to sow the name of the song etc. Also SavageD has an extremely great suggestion there too. I think it'd be really cool. I dunno how many may agree to this so I'd say in advance that this is to mke this aneyecandy plus highly customized; just a suggestion. Overally, I have already let this aplication replace the clumsy default player. I dint face performance issues as such and it really is amazing.

Thanks Man on Blessing us with the Symfonie :P

Thank you (and many other users) for bringing this up. I have already enabled the player to play flac file types. I am going to put the package to extra-dev very soon. Meanwhile I am still adding some small enhancements.

Great to see the continued development of Symfonie. :)

Any ideas on reducing CPU consumption? Symfonie is such a great player but multi-tasking seems to be interfering with playback.

A newer version has been release, do a update should fix the problem.

it would be great if volume key work when lock because i use earphone to enjoy music on bike and also is it possible to change track through long press volume keys or from the earphone button? the sound quality is really superb i am very very happy with it. Thanks a lot and best luck.

Re: [Announce] Music Player with Equalizer - symfonie
 
great program!
use it a lot.
two problems:
- no sound when in silent mode. mediaplayer works in silent mode. bug or feature?
- with long mp3s, 80+ minutes, the file is shown as 26.06 min in seekbar. all of it plays though. only length is displayed wrongly

Re: [Announce] Music Player with Equalizer - symfonie
 
Hi thanks for a great app..

I was wondering will it be possible to include share option for symfonie..
Including option of multiple selection and folder selection for sharing..
I think it will be a great feature as default music player doesn't provide this flexibility and it becomes very tedious from file manager as computer generated new music folders(especially from Windows) are always hidden..

Regrads,

Lav

Are you sure you're not using the silent-profile? I've bumped into this problem a couple of times, and everytime there's no sound, it's because the silent-profile is in use..

thank you i just changed the profile from silent to general and it worked...

I don't have a bluetooth headset for teting. Maybe you can help me to gather some information? I will implement this feature when I have spare time.

I need the output from:
dbus-monitor --system

Run above comment from terminal, and then press all the buttons on your bt headset one by one, post the result back.

Re: [Announce] Music Player with Equalizer - symfonie
 
i've been using (abusing) MediaBox until now that i noticed this app.
I tried it and it has everything I want/have in MediaBox and more.

code, i have no complaints about the UI and the sound file format support is better than MediaBox (esp bitrate variants). as of the latest version, my only gripe is that:

When using MediaBox, pulseaudio mainly works in the background (using 15% or so CPU Power)

When using Symfonie, pulseaudio AND symfonie work in the background (using 16% and 21% or so CPU Power respectively)


I know it has been brought up before but as you indicated in your last post, it has been fixed?

Anyway, that's the only thing that stops me from using this app but great work so far!

Thank you!

I did top on both programs, here's what I see:
Mediabox:
pulseaudio (20%~30%)
mafw-dbus-wrapper (10%~15%)
python /usr/bin/MediaBox (1%-7%)

symfonie:
pulseaudio (22%~33%)
symfonie (20%~30%)

So Mediabox is about 10~15% more efficient. There's nothing I can do about pulseaudio, but I probably can do a profiling on symfonie to see if any improvement can be made.

Re: [Announce] Music Player with Equalizer - symfonie
 
My suggestions for some important improvements to make this application the best of its kind:
1. A bug fix - when I play the first song in a folder, if I change to another folder while playing I cannot activate the first song in another folder - it won't play - I have to choose some other song and only after that choose the first again for it to work.
2. The scrolling left to right is sometimes very annoying - I tried to use this application while driving and it is hard to find a song quickly like this… a preference to disable this would be nice.
3. A shuffle button is missing (I didn't find it)
4. Creation and management of playlists for songs is missing
5. A fast equalizer enable/disable button would be great.
6. A "stop" play button is missing. (if I press "play" after it the song should start from the beginning).
7. Rearrange songs play order in a folder (something like drag&drop). And Allow to save it.

Thanks for the great work.
