you should put the *song title* in the title tag, and artist name in the artist tag.

Disq: That's how they currently are (and initially were). It's the order in which they are displayed in Kagu that I'm trying (and will try further) to modify. When I have such a large listing of song titles, Kagu currently doesn't appear to generate for me a separate listing of albums and artists. Only song titles -- but with the album designations appearing before the song titles -- and thus not appearing in Kagu at all. Am I making myself usefully clear? Many thanks for your help.

There's an album field, an artist field, and a title field. Use all 3. That should be all you need to do. Also, try not to dump them into one directory. Group the mp3s by album. I'm not sure if that last bit is necessary or not, but that's how I always group mine.

My song titles are from many different albums, sometimes only one song has been extracted from an individual album. I suppose I could proceed with my earlier-stated intent of putting the artist, album and title in a different order through re-tagging. But I think for now I'll just put the matter on hold -- at least until your new version is released which, just possibly, may help me further in this regard. Again, many thanks. By the way, I got my Motorola Bluetooth earphones working fine with Kagu -- with a little help, of course, from others in this forum.

Is there a way to run the kagu-scanner.py from the command line without popping any notices to the GUI. I've written a script to download podcasts and I want to invoke the scanner once thats done but it might be at 3am!

Thx,

Trevarthan: New -- and much simpler issue and question: If I want to change the cover art on an album, where do I paste it. I assume I'll be able to do this in xterm, but which directory do I go to to change an album cover displayed in Kagu?

Not yet, but that's a great idea. I think we've all been thinking about that. https://www.guardiani.us/projects/kagu/ticket/118

Given an example mp3 like:

Hey! Welcome! That's great news! Well, you can always talk to us here, but for really fast feedback (i.e. realtime), the best way to chat with us is to get an IRC client and log into the #kagu channel on the FreeNode network. disq, audioworld, Tony Maro, and I hang out there all day long and discuss development.

For basic theme changes, all you need to do is check out the Development Snapshot and modify this file:

Then save your changes as this file:

For more advanced changes, like changing the placement of icons on the screen, we'll need to create a layout engine for you. Hop over to #kagu sometime and we'll discuss it further.
