Prebuilt radio index file is updated. The previous was 1 year old.

zigbert

I have uploaded a new version of pMusic that improves the handling of radio-stations. - It uses www.radio-browser.info instead of radiosure.com - It supports m3u / m3u8 as playback formats - It builds the radio-stations database in seconds - It opens for aac streams, though the support seems limited...

zigbert

Thanks to fredx181 for pointing out a solution to the radiosure issue. I have added the fix to the next version of pMusic. But, there are more issues to the radio functionality in pMusic. We support 2 ways of playing a radio stream. 1. Streamripper is the preferred choice (if installed). It sets up ...

Puppylinux.com had a blog in the earlier days.
Do we have an archive of this somewhere?

Can you please make a pull request at github to improve pFilesearch?
... or post a diff here...

Thank you!

zigbert

We need to know what burn engine is used. The latest pBurn requires cdrtools-3, but several Puppies tries to squeeze down size by using the cdrkit package instead. As a workaround it's made links from crdkit commands to cdrtools 'equals'. 'cdrecord' is the burning command in cdrtools, so to check if...

With version 6.9.1, pMusic is now supporting both Gtk3 and Gtk2.
Consider this as a development release. It will work, but there is still some UI issues to improve.
Download from the main post.

Please give feedback of any issues or suggestions. Thank you.

This is a complete translation from scratch. Thanks a lot. I have added it to the NLS file, and made a download link in the main post.

@bigpup
Great info!
I will update the pet package...

@amethyst @rockedge
pEqualizer is started in line 494 in /usr/local/pmusic.
We don't need pEqualizer in pMusic even if it is built for integration... It could still work as a standalone app.

... thinking

zigbert

So why does pMusic "turn on" pEqualizer by default whereas with all other players I need to start pEqualizer by its own and then start the player before it is integrated with the player? Could this be one of the issues with pMusic causing some conflict? It could absolutely be the cause. p...

zigbert

Seems to be an integration problem with pEqualizer. Running the first command with Xenial 32: pEqualizer is not in play, sound is not distorted. Thank you for the investigation. Very valuable knowledge. If I got it right, pEqualizer is not compatible with the latest Puppy because of the move to pul...

amethyst rockedge Sorry for the nagging, but I am really interested in improving the playback quality of pMusic. Could you please test this command in a terminal and check the quality? Replace /dir/file.mp3 with your audio file. ffmpeg -i "/dir/file.mp3" -f s16le -acodec pcm_s16le -ar 441...

zigbert

@amethyst @rockedge
Are there any sound improvement if you bypass pEqualizer? Do this by choosing your soundcard in the preferences. Now soundcard will be locked to pMusic, and won't work in other apps as long as pMusic is active. Choose 'auto' to reset.

Yes it was the volume slider that crashed the sound when I adjusted it during play, I didn't try the other sliders.

What Puppy are you running? I should check the ffmpeg compile...

zigbert

BTW - moving the volume slider in "input (ffmpeg) in Sound Processing of pMusic during play, crashed the sound completely. Are you sure it is the volume slider that causes this and not 'Pitch'. I made a fix a couple a days ago about this. ffmpeg was compiled without rubberband lib and it made ...

zigbert

Experimenting still. I've now compared the sound quality with DeadBeef and mpv. In all cases the settings are the same, pEqualizer is used (same settings), same song(s). Made sure that DeadBeef's own equalizer and any mplayer equalizer settings are turned off. Using headphones. Very Interesting res...

zigbert

What happened here? See big play icon, bottom left. This changed overnight, correct button was shown previously. Using Xenial 32. Edit: Okay, I see this is actually the nowplaying_albumart icon so the file must have had some album art associated with it. Evenso, the icon did not refresh after the f...

zigbert

hi @zigbert . the problem is not gtk3. I don't know why the svg icons don't have the right format. I passed them through inskape. and it was solved. Great catch! But I don't see how this should come... Looking into icon-play.svg as an example they both look similar when removing the inkscape stuff....

zigbert

do you plan to support gtk3. some icons are not displayed. Icons has been an issue in the official FossaPup 64-bit. As far as I know, the other official Puppies are ok. I don't know the reason for this, and has not taken the time to dig into this as pMusic is not a part of this build. Gtk3 should h...

zigbert

amethyst Thank you for your feedback. Last playing position is not saved Playing position is not saved. Instead I met this request before by adding a function in the playback menu - "Add Timestamp to Favorites" which saves the current time for the playing track. Maybe not as simple as you...

zigbert

@amethyst
The most important is that you are pleased with whatever app you use. But, if you ever take the time to try pMusic, I think you'd be surprised by the possibilities inside.
