Notices

As some people may have already noticed, there is an application in Extras Devel named Aerofy.

It's a Subsonic Client written in QML and ready for your criticism. Aesthetically, it's not pleasing. I am attempting to get all functionality before making it pretty.

Some features that will be included in later versions will be:

• A close button (I know, I know)
  
• Jukebox Control
  
• Ability to share link to song via Facebook
  
• Coverflow for album list (MAYBE. I had some issues with a previous Qt version. Don't know if it still exists).
  
• Ability to download songs.
  
• Artist information from LastFM api
  
• Anything else that is suggested.

The application has been an interest of mine for a while but the MeeGo Coding Competition encouraged me.

All feedback, negative and positive is greatly appreciated.

One bug that I will be fixing is the requirement to restart the application after saving settings.

The server address requires "http://" to precede the address. Example:

I wasn't previously familiar with Subsonic, but it looks interesting. I'll install the desktop application and give this a spin. I notice that they provide video streaming (donors only). I expect it would be poor quality though, as the bitrate would be limited by a user's upstream connection speed (we get shafted on this in the UK).

I believe that this application belongs in the network category of the Meego Coding Competition, if you get my gist.

Oh yeah, I forgot about the video streaming. I'm not particularly interested in watching videos on a tiny screen but I'll probably implement that too. The question is Qt Mobility or built in player...

I'm in the UK too (good ol' Wales) and I can attest to the upload speed being dreadful. I think I get faster speeds on Giffgaff than I do on any of my friends' houses broadband.

If the category can be edited, I'll see if I can sneak it in there.

There really is no multimedia application that can compete with Cutetube-QML but hey, more applications for the community.

New version up.

Moved coverart and added a close button.

Congratulations on the N950. Can't wait to see what you do with it!

do you plan to integrate the subsonic chat feature?

Where do you store the settings? I tried to enter my server location but all I'm getting from aerofy is freezing.

Do you support a location in the form of
http://my.server.location:nnnnn/subsonic
?

Oops, sorry. Don't come round here much nowadays.

That server address should be fine. Anything with http:// preceding it should work. Somebody did have an issue with a certificate on initial release. I really need to update this version sometime.

If you like, you can pm me your server address and I'll test it out on mine. Ensure that the "h" in "http" is not capitalised too!

Nokia N900's have had a huge amount of issues due to Qt Mobility and other things.

Hmmm, it shouldn't freeze, regardless of whether or not the server address is right.

I haven't updated my N900, but are you on latest CSSU? Issues with Qt are happening because of it, apparently.

When I do update this, it will catch up with the Harmattan version in terms of features. I'll take an afternoon off sometime soon to get it done.

Any update on this?

Getting qml module import error
QtMultimediakit version 1.2 is not installed.

Known problem or is there way to solve this?

I do have CSSU...

I'm on the latest CSSU and kp48, not much else that is specific to my n900... Currently Aerofy just shows a black screen

Would be great if you could get this working
