I am happily to announce a new music player application - symfonie. A directory based music player with equalizer =================================== This is preview package of a light weight music player written in QT. The player is still under heavy development, though basic media features are supported. Here's list of features included in this build: - Browse file using directory structure (any folders as long as you have access to it) - 8-band audio equalizer - Sleep timer - Resuming the playback from last opened state (still testing this) - Landscape/Portrait mode (Toolbars still need some more work) - Full screen mode =========================================== Known issues: - When changing view mode (landscape or portrait), toolbar buttons got mis-arranged (will fix this when I have time). - High CPU usage (probably due to the equalizer). Solutions are: make equalizer feature optional or set higher process priority (is this possible?). - "Auto" viewing mode is not working due to current QT support limitation Updates ==20100401 (v0.2-2)== * Uploaded program screen shots * Updated window title * Bug fix for graduate volume resuming (now should be working) * Limited file browser to home directory * Added *.wma file type filter ==20100309== * Icons overhual * Updated about dialog * Added *.wav file extension filter ==20100308== * Added *.m4a file extension filter * Equalizer is made an optional feature now due to high CPU consumption * Removed directory path for songs in item view * Slightly increased item view font size * Added *.mp3/*.mp4/*.ogg file extension filter * New bug: Stacked window is now broken after adding menu to sub window The package can be found at http://maemo.org/packages/view/symfonie. It has already been imported to extras-devel, so anyone who has extras-devel repository enabled should be able to download it. To enable extra-devel, add this to your App Manager's catelog: http://repository.maemo.org/extras-devel Be very caution that extras-devel is for people who want to test/try softwares which are not ready for releasing. Please read here for more information: http://wiki.maemo.org/Extras-devel Background: The original intent of writing this application was that I need a simple media player "just the way I wanted" - play mp3 files by folders. I didn't want to tag my music library nor to create play list manually. I use directory to manage all my music files because I can group them into exactly the way I wanted. Thus this application is created. So if you don't like it, please don't thumb it down because it is not meant to replace other music players out there. Thank you for read this and I hope you will find this application useful
