maemo.org - Talk - [ANNOUNCE] Alpha release of Open Media Player

Maybe I'm reading the installation instructions in the first post wrong, but I really don't get what I have to download or how to install it.

What I want is to install it along side the stock media player, don't want to replace my stock one.

Sorry for the noob request but could someone tell me exactly how to do this? Please don't quote MAGs first post because as I said, I don't quite get it. Just simple step by step instructions if you can please, thanks.

Just quoting myself incase it was missed. Really want to try out this player!

You have to know how to copy and paste.

Go to the second text box on the first page.

Copy it.

Open an xterm.

Paste what you copied.

Watch it install. You probably have to hit the Enter key to get the last command to run.

Lyrics should stay in the Now playing window, no need to waste memory for that.
And if we're getting rid of fancy transitions, what difference is the entertainment view from the view before it? :)

@MohammadAG

Did the MAFW ewualizer ever work for you?

I remember trying it a couple of times before and after reflashing my phone and it didn't make any effects on the audio output from the stock player :(

Not sure if you could implement it and fix that equalizer for mafw.

Otherwise I haven't really noticed many bugs that make the player unusable! Its excellent :)

The only bug that is weird is where multiple instanced of the media player open and closing one closes them all, but this has already been mentioned before.

Keep up the good work (Y)

@ MohammadAG:

the greatest annoying thing in stock media player, is that you are not able to search trough current playlist.... did you consider to put that option in your MP (for example to type on keyboard, and search trough "now playing" just like when you are adding a new songs, or albums to playlist...) ????
that would be a very good enhancement!
(also a "quee" is a wish, but don't know is it on your roadmap for some future releases )

thx again. and great work man ;)

Well we can add others of course ;). Just not anything which involves reparenting. I will poke the qml mailing list for more info on the layout issue.

If anyone wants the lyrics binary, http://mohammadag.xceleo.org/lyrics-test
I'll hook it up into the mediaplayer later on.

It runs on Windows/Linux/Mac/Symbian, feel free to recompile it for your platform of choice :P (oh and seriously, Symbian is a tier 1 platform for Qt, and doesn't support kinetic scrolling with a QScrollArea, kinda ironic).

Code:

wget http://mohammadag.xceleo.org/lyrics-test

chmod +x lyrics-test

./lyrics-test

Kill me for this but: I don't get it, what's different in entertainment view besides the fancy transitions?
