Re: [ANNOUNCE] Alpha release of Open Media Player
 
Gidzz, can you add more options in sleep timer.
I mean to say- close application or stop playback after 2 songs or any number
of songs.

In this way we can listen full song

Could be possible?
An external file browser can be used to open a whole folder, so I'm not in a hurry to add a built-in browser to OMP. Looks like I forgot to make it work for videos, but I just added it to my to-do, so it should appear in one of the future updates. This approach unfortunately does not always allow to open a whole tree of directories, so subfolders will have to wait for a built-in browser and I can't say when it is about to happen, if at all.

During IRC conversation, kerio confirmed, that .ogg is working for him, without -ogg and with -maemo-xiph. Could anyone else, who have working .ogg playback check own setup?
Good to hear that it did not end with a reflash. ;) gstreamer0.10-ogg is not needed, because ogg-support moved to more efficient gstreamer0.10-av.

I have many many songs that cant show lyrics for some odd reason, nevertheless they are from Cd Albums. :confused:

It might sound trivial and the basic implementation could indeed take 15 minutes, but there are some issues that make it more complicated than it might seem at first.

1) It would be broken for radio streams, 2) volume reduction wouldn't work in shuffle mode (and I think this feature is only useful when shuffling -- otherwise you can simply create a playlist and set the sleep timer to match its playing time) and 3) possible confusion when skipping a track closes the player. And that's only from the top of my head. 2) and 3) could be solved in a more or less elegant way, but the idea of stuffing OMP with half-working features does not appeal to me.

Problem that wired headset button not working when libplayback is enabled cannot be easily fixed. Binary Prolog code has predicate which enable jackbias (needed to enable headset button) only when there is incoming or active voice call. Solution would be to patch that Prolog binary code.

@bennypr0fane

I don't think the tracker ignore list will work. It surely doesn't work for me and googling, I found that tracker seems to have a bug, making it ignore the ignore list :-(
The only way to make tracker do what you want it to do is not using a player that does not rely on tracker at all. But there is no player out there that I'd recommend 100 % ...

Cool Thank looking forward to it.
Another question though... I connected my n900 to my tv using the tvout cable and started using OMP, I choosed a couple of song with lyrics but the screen in the n900 always went black (as normal after 10 sec you know what i mean), and then in my Tv it shows "the lockscreen" app.... so I cant keep singing without keeping the screen in my n900 on the whole time, rather than the video option in which i can shut the screen in my n900 but the movie/video keeps playing normal.

So... anyway i can manage to keep singing without eating my battery ? or is because of the lock screen app ?

It must be... I actually hate it, but cant do that because it is part of maemeemo app which i cant uninstall .deb version.

I have already asked how to do it but no luck so far.

Re: [ANNOUNCE] Alpha release of Open Media Player
 
Having an issue with the media player which I am sure it's MAFW, but I'd like to confirm.

I can listen to a playlist on shuffle for a number of days, normally either "Most Played" or "Never Played".
After say roughly 5 days, OMP takes ages to open and when it does, magically I am back at the start of the playlist with all the same songs in the same order.
I know it's not got to the end of the list as I currently have 2457 never played tracks.
I am guessing this has nothing to do with OMP, correct?

Much awaited and delayed first post update done, thanks again gidzzz, OMP seems polished now :)

gidzzz 2012-08-03 16:23
Re: [ANNOUNCE] Alpha release of Open Media Player
 
To add more to the good news, I've got an update. :)
  • Support for pluggable, dynamically loaded lyrics providers.
  • Plugins for AZLyrics, ChartLyrics, LyricsDB (the old integrated provider, now improved), LyricsWiki.
  • Increased the space for lyrics in the lyrics editor.
  • Added a shortcut to save changes in the lyrics editor (Ctrl+S).
  • Saving empty lyrics in the lyrics editor deletes the lyrics file.
  • Changed the lyrics cache format and location ("/home/user/.cache/openmediaplayer/lyrics/"), and added a plugin to read lyrics from the previous directory.
  • Moved the configuration file to "/home/user/.config/openmediaplayer/openmediaplayer.conf".
  • "Open whole folders" option works for videos.
  • Fixed the endless loading icon after opening a whole folder.
  • Added a note in the settings dialog to warn about libplayback conflicting with the wired headset button.

There are two things that I'd like to say something about. First of all, if you want to keep your settings, move them to the new location:
Code:
mkdir /home/user/.config/openmediaplayer/;
mv /home/user/.config/MohammadAG/mediaplayer.conf /home/user/.config/openmediaplayer/openmediaplayer.conf
Secondly, you might remember that some time ago MohammadAG proposed plugins as a way of supplying lyrics. Finally that idea comes to life and the repositories too.

Lyrics providers can be configured in the main settings window. If you enable more than one provider, the first one in the list will be queried first, if it fails then the second, and so on.

The new offline cache is incompatible with the old one, but worry not. If you don't want to start afresh, go to the settings and enable the lyrics provider called "OMP pre-20120803 offline cache". Otherwise you can delete the old lyrics directory:
Code:
rm -r /home/user/.lyrics/
New sources of lyrics can be added quite easily (and only enabled plugins stay in the memory), so if there's a source that you'd like to see in OMP, let me know (or add it yourself: https://gitorious.org/qt-mediaplayer.../master/lyrics). Only online sources are cleanly supported for now, but another update might also enable importing cache of your favorite media player from PC, for example.

If you mean that a random playlist does not span all songs and creates a loop, that's probably MAFW, because OMP only tells it to enable the shuffle mode and doesn't care what MAFW does with it. I don't know where the prolonged startup comes from.

Tried this a few times, either ...
*the player locks up with grey text
*starts playing with grey text (but no buttons work)
*playlist starts fine but doesn't completely complie the playlist so only some of the songs "325" of the 2420 are included in the playlist.

If either option 1 or 2 only a restart will fix.

Looks like the LyricWiki plugin failing to detect that lyrics don't exist. I will fix that for an update later today or tomorrow.

Do the lockups happen often compared to just incomplete playlist? I tried a dozen times and couldn't reproduce any fatal case. Does it depend on the playlist type (automatic/saved)? How long did you wait before restarting the player?

Open OMP
Select playlist
Select Never Played
Select Shuffle
Only 325 songs out of 2417 in the playlist.

If I get the not responsive "grey text of doom" issue I normally wait one track (3 minutes or so) then give up and restart.

Hope this helps.

Re: [ANNOUNCE] Alpha release of Open Media Player
 
I tried again and again, and again with different settings... and still there's no grey text. :<


As promised, I just uploaded an update that should fix LyricWiki, but it takes care of some other bugs as well.
  • Fixed LyricWiki plugin not recognizing missing lyrics properly and made it ignore incomplete lyrics.
  • Fixed a crash that could occur when rapidly switching songs with online lyrics active.
  • Somewhat faster (mainly more responsive when searching) radio browser, video browser and UPnP browser.
  • Headers in the video browser are not displayed if there's only one category.
  • Made playlist browser headers immune to filtering.
  • Got rid of the imported playlists header and an empty playlist appearing even if there are no imported playlists.
  • Restored seamless refreshing in the radio browser that probably got lost a few updates ago.
  • Updated translations.

Okay so I can't reproduce grey text only happen when you least expect it :mad:
Still have to wait for the playlist to load the 2417 songs before pressing shuffle or the complete list is not played.

I have all my music on uSD but I can't see that making a difference.
All settings checked (except lyrics and continuous video)


I have modified OMP's .desktop so it always runs a terminal if I get any more silly things happening I'll let you know (with debug info).

/usr/share/applications/hildon/openmediaplayer.desktop

Code:
Exec=osso-xterm -e openmediaplayer
Is there any other way to get debug information to help?

@gidzzz, I have a bug, with the Internet radio, every time I add a radio station to favorites, this is multiplied by 100 (created 100 copies of the same internet radio, especially when the link is incorrect). The same bug with video bookmarks. Now I have 100 repetead videos bookmarks (same video link) and 100 repetead internet radio.

Please fix the problem.

Regards. :)

PD: A petition, Please you can add a catalog of shoutcast.com to OMP, if possible would greatly appreciate it.:D

Currently no (other than finding a reliable way to reproduce the grey text), but maybe I'll add some more debug messages around places where window disabling is performed.

There are 3 ways to put lyrics in the cache:
1. If you had them before the update, go to the settings, select "Lyrics providers" and enable "OMP pre-20120803 offline cache".
2. Play the song, long-press the lyrics pane and select "Edit". Then you can paste lyrics into the window and click "Save".
3. Directly place the lyrics in "/home/user/.cache/openmediaplayer/lyrics/Artist's Name/Title of the Song.txt".

Isn't it possible and easy to browse it with a web browser? Plugins are the best place for specialized features, but currently only lyrics are pluggable, so: not in the foreseeable future.

LOL. Forgive me that I'm laughing, but I can't believe such stupid thing has slipped in. :p I always read all commits before submitting them still I missed it. I needed a few hundred stations to test scalability of the radio browser and that was to help me get that many. ;)

If you don't mind losing all bookmarks, the fastest way to clean this up (= restore the default set of bookmarks) is:
Code:
rm /home/user/.mafw.db
killall mafw-dbus-wrapper
I'll prepare an update ASAP. Hopefully it will reach the repositories within 30-60 minutes and I can already show the changelog:
  • Improved the playback state indicator for some CPU and memory savings.
  • Fixed multiple bookmarks being created when adding one.
  • Updated Italian and Finnish translations.

I am sure this has been covered before multiple times.
Although I'd love to see OMP in extras I agree with the current plan.

It also might be a good idea to upload it to extras-testing for more extensive testing and feedback before forcing a faulty or inferior replacement on every CSSU user.
FYI added the lyric offline cache information to the wiki.

One question I'd like to ask, is OMP set up for keyboard shortcuts?
I find on most parts Enter, Backspace and Space work. Other times selecting the correct option is just guess work (Mainscreen for example).

IIRC, those are currently the only shortcuts, but adding more is in the plans (at least making space work as play-pause everywhere, popping up a context menu, adding songs to now playing, moving songs in a playlist). After your post I think I'll also make the main menu items selectable (with Q, W, E, R for example).

Exactly what I was about to suggest. QWER.

Also note menus (Playlist/Artists/Songs etc..) backspace doesn't go back to the mainscreen.

What is the best thing to do with the Left and Right keys?
Skip tracks or cursor move?

Re: [ANNOUNCE] Alpha release of Open Media Player
 
great application, thank you so much for a great replacement of stock media player

I have an idea for it:

What about adding an option to use volume rocker to change tracks (next/previous) while n900 is locked. It's a really great option SomePlayer has which makes it easy to change tracks in your pocket while listening through headphones

Got some question too :)

1) Is there a possibility to download all lyrics for my songs automatically at once (not one by one) and then keep it locally on n900?

2) I know OMP is capable of playing flac media format, however, I have only one song in .flac format and it doesn't show in omp while browsing it, however, it reads it no problem from File Manager. What can be a problem here?

3) Equalizer? Is there any chances this option will be available?

Keep it up! I enjoy it recent updates :)

Rocker Skip)
I am sure this has been asked before, personally I am not to keen as I prefer the volume key to control the volume.
If you search the forum I am certain there has been a post with instructions how to do this.

1)
I imagine if you have loads of music like me this would be a bad idea. One option that I feel would be handy is a button to delete the lyrics cache.

2)
The playing of the media is actually done with MAFW.
Tracker issue?

3)
This has been asked loads of times. The answer will be no.
It is for one out of scope of this application.

----


Since the last update the automatic pause and unpause with headset seems to have disappeared. Am I the only one experiencing this??

That was a conscious decision, justified by the inability to quickly return to the music window without taking fingers off the keyboard. Now it will be possible with Q, so I will make Backspace work too.

Left and Right alrady skip tracks, but only in Now Playing window for local audio (in video NPW they are used for controlling position and radio NPW doesn't have shortcuts at all). NPW aside, when browsing videos in newest-to-oldest mode or albums, all arrows are needed for navigation, so I'd rather not give them any special role in the windows which only have a one-dimensional list, just for the sake of uniformity.

No, I don't want to abuse lyrics providers (at least ChartLyrics explicitly states that they don't want mass downloads). If you have lots of lyrics already downloaded through some other player, it might be possible to import them to OMP in the future, when offline plugins are implemented ("OMP pre-20120803 offline cache" is just an exception hardcoded in the plugins manager).

If it can play the file fine, the solution might be as simple as reinstalling ogg-support or extra-decoders-support. If it fails to play the file, this might be more complicated. Estel had a similar problem and somehow managed to solve it: http://talk.maemo.org/showpost.php?p...postcount=1158.

Probably will appear in the nearest update.

Just checked it and works fine here. However, it happened to me once in the past. I tracked it down to HAL's D-Bus interface that looked suspiciously empty. I tried to restart HAL, what unfortunately resulted in a reboot, but the problem was gone afterwards.

Cool

Makes sense

Sounds good.

Reboot sorted it, ta.
First time this has happened to me.

Just want to say Thank You. I've been using OMP as my only mp3 player for a while now.

About the volume keys as someone suggested to make them skip track.. So, press = +- volume and hold = next/prev track, how about it?

Nice job so far!

it can be even simplier: volume rocker is used for track skipping only when the phone is locked and it's working as it is when the phone is in normal unlocked mode. So for example, you can skip tracks in your pocket whithout even pulling out n900 and if you want to change the volume you can open the keyboard to unlock it (or lock switch) and then use volume keys for their regular use.

This way you don't have to get out your phone each time you want to skip track. And of course it would be better if this option would be optional as somebody may not like it.

I'm not the creator of the idea! it's used the same way in SomePlayer, which you can give ia try and see for yourself how it works.

Hello again people! :)
Just wanted to report a small glitch I'm having with OMP's headphones' pause - when I put out the headphones the music isn't paused immediately and instead plays through speakers for about a sec or half a sec which looks a bit weird to me, am I the only one experiencing this?

@gidzzz
Thank you for helping out with decoders, I reinstalled them and the song now displays in OMP, yeah! :)

Also, is there any possibility to make files in File Manager open in OMP by default without opening it first?

I don't have it in my nearest plans. But if it ever gets implemented, I'll try to use as many "gestures" as possible (well, probably there's no sense in more than 5, right?: volume +/-, track +/-, toggle playback).

It's immediate in my case, but some delay is possible. You can disable "Prevent playback interruptions" in the settings and see if it reduces the latency.

I think you should use search more often. http://wiki.maemo.org/Open_Media_Pla...t_media_player



I didn't want to drown in the changelog, so I decided to already push yet another update. ;)
  • Extensive usage of keyboard shortcuts.
  • Added an option to clear lyrics cache.
  • Fixed shuffle button sometimes not resizing properly after rotating to portrait.
  • Prevented context menu from popping up for shuffle buttons.
  • Fixed the song count of automatic playlists not being refreshed immediately.
  • Fixed shuffle mode not turning off when selecting a song in UPnP view.
  • Fixed wrong positions of some context menus.
  • Repositioned the playback indicator to sit exactly in the corner.
  • Prevented editing of headers that was possible in some lists.

As you can see, there are two new features. Cache clearing is self-explanatory, but keyboard shortcuts require a more detailed description. Writing everything down in this post would be rather tedious, so I'll point you straight to the wiki. Here I'll only say that for most uses it's possible to control OMP with just the keyboard. I'm planning to add a few more shortcuts later and I'm also tuning to suggestions, if there are any.

Re: [ANNOUNCE] Alpha release of Open Media Player
 
Thanks for the latest update. May I point out a few observations.

OMP has got a little more hungry.
RAM usage has increased and CPU seems to be doing more work, over the last version. Will know after a couple of days if battery time is affected.

The keyboard shortcuts are very handy, will take a little bit to get use to the key mappings.
Some useful additions could be Ctrl / Up & Down as volume, Ctrl / Z = jump to sleep timer, Ctrl / X = jump to settings and Ctrl / C = Close OMP


A few keyboard button related issues:-
Holding down keyboard buttons causes 100% CPU and complete confusion, especially skip tracks (which I expected to fast forward/rewind not skip 50+ tracks in one go) same for shuffle, repeat etc.

If the Menu bar is down, keyboard shortcuts don't work as listed.
Space is enter and arrows move the cursor around the menubar.

May I know how you came to such conclusion? I see no difference when comparing two simultaneously running instances of OMP in htop. I even compared with an ancient version from before OMP entered repositories, but I still don't know what you mean.

I assume that you're speaking of buttons which actually do something (otherwise I don't think it's a problem with OMP). I will disable key repeating for some shortcuts.

Hmmm... I don't remember listing any shortcuts for that. If you press Shift+Enter, you should get a keyboard-friendly version of that menu.
