Re: [ANNOUNCE] SomeCover - Album art manager for SomePlayer and TPlayer

Both are using different backends, my goal is to provide a 1:1 (or close to 1:1) clone of the stock media player in Qt while using the same DBus calls and MAFW, that way, current applications using MAFW (media-im-status-updater, nowplayingd, some applets showing current song) won't break, while adding as much functionality on the way.

In short, it's not about which media player is best, both have their goals and their limitations based on those goals. ;)

I don't understand why first hash is md5(' ') :)

Just embed the album art in the file itself, tracker should handle those files, not you :)

This should be merged to the SomePlayer.

Thanks MAG, that is exaclty what i wanted to hear from You! I like the built-in player... now back to Nikolay: is it a bug or something wrong with me/ my n900: if i go play a song and then press "minimize" player stops or pauses(doesn't really matter, does it?) the song... weird, right?

No, I don't want to merge. SomeCover is just utility to fetch covers. It may be helpful sometimes. No reason to increase size of SomePlayer. Another reason - SomeCover may be helpful to TPlayer users or stock media player users (after adding support for stock player).

This is because I'm using Phonon, not MAFW.

PS> у MAFW как-то повышен приоритет для отрисовки звука. Phonon использует gstreamer без таких плюшек, отсюда и все проблемы. Исследую возможность прикрутить MAFW с эквалайзером в качестве бэкенда.

Cover downloading is temporary disabled (I have issues with my hosting provider).
