Pmusic 2.3.0
Username: zigbert
The major new features in 2.3.0 depends on streamripper. - Record radio streams, split stream into tracks (files), and give the file name of artist - title. - Better performance of streaming Radio. Now 11000 stations in db. - Show artist/title information while playing radio stream. Streamripper is about 100kb uncompressed. I used the package of the Slackware repo (for Slacko). The source is here: http://sourceforge.net/projects/streamripper/files/streamripper%20%28current%29/

"zigbert, I have just looked inside Pmusic, and I see there is a binary executable 'pmusic_tray'. In that case, I will have to take Pmusic PET out of the 'noarch' repository. 'noarch' is for architecture-independent PETs, as we move toward supporting ARM. However, can 'pmusic_tray' be made optional? If so, it can be a separate PET, that would be compiled for the 'x86' and 'arm' architectures. Regarding streamripper, I presume that Pmusic tests for it and will still work without?

"pmusic_tray is a simple tray icon for Pmusic, something originally written by me some time go. Maybe we could replace it with a Yad tray icon - I have no idea how functional this feature is.

"Zigbert has this cool dependency check applet in the 'help' menu of Pmusic, [img]http://users.tpg.com.au/01micko//pmusic-deps.png[/img] i was going to paste the code but it kind of loses something in the translation ;)

pEqualizer

"You'll see pEqualizer as an optional dep to Pmusic above. It's already included in Slacko and Dpup-Exprimo. PET <-- http://distro.ibiblio.org/pub/linux/distributions/puppylinux/pet_packages-slacko/pequalizer-0.4.0.pet It's pure bash script/gtkdialog but depends on alsaequal and CAPS (a ladspa library/dsp plugin) alsaequal-0.6 <-- http://www.thedigitalmachine.net/alsaequal.html CAPS-0.4.5 <-- http://quitte.de/dsp/caps.html You may be interested in compiling those and having pEqualizer as an addon for wary/racy. I say as an addon as they are a little big and aren't essential, but give Pmusic great functionality. pEqualiser is a standalone app and will work with anything running through alsa including mplayer if you set the preference [i]ao="alsa"[/i]. pEualizer is a joint venture between zigbert and myself.

"BTW, here's a screenshot http://users.tpg.com.au/01micko//peq.png There is code in there (zigbert) that integrates pEqualiser into the "wings" option GUI as a "plugin" to Pmusic, rather cool. The stuff they mention on the alsaequal site is already taken care of and is implemented in the pinstall.sh, nothing hard coded to /root. Works fine in a woof installation or as a running installation.
