CuteMPC - MPD client for N900
 

UPDATE 2010-02-01: Available now in extras-devel repo!

UPDATE: .deb package (OUTDATED) available in garage

UPDATE: Garage page just opened https://garage.maemo.org/projects/cutempc/

Version 0.1.5 features:
* Portrait mode
* Collection browser
* File browser
* Fetches album cover art from last.fm

Known issues:
* Collection doesn't always show up correctly (or at all), but a database update from menu should fix it.
* If connected to remote MPD it may take very long to load the playlist (if it's very big) and you can't do anything while the playlist loads.

Features to come:
* Scrobble to Last.fm (there's already settings for username and to enable scrobbling, but it doesn't actually scrobble yet)

Hi,

new to Maemo, but not to Debian GNU/Linux, I would like to install your MPD client.

First, I have to add devel repository to install libqt4-maemo5-*.

But now, when I try to run cutempc, I have the following error message :
It's the only one missing library (ldd confirm me that).

(and for the moment, I can't use apt-file to search it.)

Where can I find it ? Thank you for your mpd client, I really want to test/use it.

Regards,

Sorry, I find it in libq4-maemo5-maemo5 package...

Re: CuteMPC - MPD client for N900
 

Is this software still in development?

Because I need an mpd client and would like to get involved with it

Re: CuteMPC - MPD client for N900
 

Yes, still developing. I think I could make a project in maemo garage so you (and others who are interested) could participate in the development. I'll try to find time to do it during this week.

Re: CuteMPC - MPD client for N900
 

Now this project has a garage page https://garage.maemo.org/projects/cutempc/. It currently doesn't have anything other there but the source in SVN. If someone likes to participate in developing, let me know.

Re: CuteMPC - MPD client for N900
 

could you move this on extras-devel for a safer build?
or provide a dpkg with dependancy check?

Re: CuteMPC - MPD client for N900
 

Yes I could, I just haven't never done such thing before so I need to study it a little first. And I also need to do the same thing to libmpd because there is only very outdated version of it available in repositories (and cutempc depends on newer version). I try to get this done in couple of days.

Re: CuteMPC - MPD client for N900
 

Okay, I finally got the deb packages done for libmpd and cutempc, check project's garage page. They worked fine on my just flashed device, so I think there shouldn't be problems with the packages.

Re: CuteMPC - MPD client for N900
 

It still would be great if you could introduce it to extras-testing (which should have Qt 4.6), so it is easier to test the application. And then later to extras-devel and then the extras repository ...
