Re: YouAmp - yet another Music player for Maemo

ok, you guys most likely have outdated libs, which cause the trouble. I just uploaded a new youamp package, which depends on the latest available libs. Try again after updating with the package manager.

Re: YouAmp - yet another Music player for Maemo

After using apt-get to update & upgrade all my libs, this is what I get:

Code:

Nokia-N800-50-2:/# youamp-player

Traceback (most recent call last):

  File "/usr/bin/youamp-player", line 22, in <module>

    main()

  File "/usr/bin/youamp-player", line 18, in main

    player = youamp.ui.main.Window()

  File "debian/youamp/usr/lib/python2.5/site-packages/youamp/ui/main.py", line 25, in __init__

AttributeError: 'module' object has no attribute 'set_application_name'

you seem to somehow still have the old python version, since the set_application_name bug was fixed in the latest release:

It still wouldn't come up when I clicked on it in the Extras menu. I then went into xterm and typed the usual "youamp-player" and the screen then appeared to scan, scroll through and extract all my music from my two mmc's. I closed out of xterm and YouAmp appeared on my screen, and I was able to locate all my music. But now that I seemingly have the ability to bring up and click on music titles within YouAmp itself, how can I then play them? The title in red at the top is the title of music currently playing -- but not a title I have chosen (clicked on). And I can't seem to change to a title of my choosing. The title in red stays there. I think I'm making progress -- but of what kind?

EDIT: When I close out of YouAmp and attempt to bring it up again from the Extras menu, it won't come up -- the same thing as I've previously been experiencing. Do I have to go to xterm each time to access and use it?

SECOND EDIT: I rebooted and it now comes up -- albeit slowly (scanning time?).

Re: YouAmp - yet another Music player for Maemo

well... finally it starts for someone! The red colour of the title means that it found no replaygain information.
It is normal that it takes a bit to startup - I hope I can improve it with the next python release, but for now I cant do much except for displaying a startup bubble, which would be only cosmetic.

Are you able to play your songs now?

EDIT: A startup bubble would be most reassuring!

Re: YouAmp - yet another Music player for Maemo

hm.. basically you just have to double tap a song in the playlist to make it start. OGG file neet a bit longer to load since playing them back is still hacky on Maemo.

Madman: Now that I've got it working, time for an ungrateful quibble...why is the maximum volume level so much lower with YouAmp than with the inbuilt N800 media player? In fact, it's so much lower as to be just barely detectable by my headphones -- which hear loud and clear with the N800 media player. And I've got both volume levels tabs -- that of N800 and YouAmp -- turned up to the maximum. Am I the only one who has detected this disparity? Rather disappointing.

Re: YouAmp - yet another Music player for Maemo

I installed the update and it is now running for me. The first track is playing as I type. The volume is fine for me. The same as for the built in media player.
