Puppy Linux Discussion Forum

Aye; I'm at it again..!

The statically-compiled DeadBeef Linux builds are essentially in portable format anyway; everything in a single, self-contained directory. I've just given them a helping hand; keeping the config files within the directory - these are symlinked into position at runtime, and removed again at close - and giving y'all the ability to add a Menu entry if you wish.

Two versions available; 64-bit v1.9.1 - the current 'stable' - and the final 'static' build the team supplied as 32-bit....v0.7.2 (still fully functional, and should be for a good long while to come).

D/l; unzip; put it anywhere you want, though preferably outside the 'save'. You can even run it from a flash drive, if you like.

Have fun! Enjoy...

DeadBeef

I don't know if this is the right topic, maybe it should be in How-To. But I already started here

After the hardware upgrade, the paths to the music files have changed, and my favorite Deadbeef stores playlists in its own format (.dbpl), which does not open in Geany.

Playlists are stored in /root/.config/deadbeef/playlists/. I can use a hex editor. But there is also another way.

Python script and library for changing the path to music files in Deadbeef playlists. PyPI page. And here is a script utility for manipulating with the above library.
Just checked it out. Works great. My gratitude for this library goes to St. Petersburg - thank you, Evgeny!

@Grey :-

I don't tend to run playlists, as such. I'll load an album if, as & when I want to listen to it, but then it'll be removed when I'm finished. More than anything else, I use it for listening to a .pls audio stream from the web.

I've had a basic, paid a/c with RadioTunes for a few years now. One of the 'perks' you get with a subscription is the ability to d/l all your favourite 'stations' as a combined .pls stream (which includes your 'listen' key ID). You can then run this in your media player of choice, so long as it supports a .pls stream.

VLC will. SMPlayer will. Audacious will. And, of course, my all-time fave, DeaDBeeF.....so that's what it gets the most use with.

32-bit version of DeaDBeeF-portable added; see post #1 for details.

Enjoy.

Afternoon, gang.

DeaDBeeF v1.9.1 - in 64-bit only - has just been released. So here's the new Puppy-'portable' for your delectation.

A few new libs added; not entirely certain what they're for, but I assume that since one of them is libcurl it must be either to do with downloading stuff, or - more likely - for playing streaming stuff. Which I use DeaDBeeF for myself, via a RadioTunes a/c.

--------------------------------

As always:-

• Download.

• Unzip.

• Move anywhere you like, but preferably outside the 'save'.

• Click to enter.

• Click 'LAUNCH' to run as a portable, or use the included scripts to add a Menu entry for greater system integration, if required.

Enjoy.

Mike.
