maemo.org - Talk - Panucci Podcast and Audiobook Player

Note to the developer of this great app: I think you may have to learn to leave this app alone now. Randomly changing the core functionality of it only serves to alienate your users.

And what exactly is your problem?
What about eseem what hard work the developer does in their spare time for free?

And why to hell do you install a application from extra-devel???
There IS NO SINGLE Application ready for end users. It's for applications currently under development. With bugs, feature changes and the potential to break your device. You've activated it at your own risk. Don't blame the people that uses this tool for its initial aim. To work together at the development of a application. To look at Apps in a early state, help to improve it and reporting Bugs. Read here for more Details: http://wiki.maemo.org/Extras-devel

Mh, whats wrong with the menu? It seems to work for me...

I see "Wiedergabeliste" and "About" - was there more before? :confused:

That was easy to fix: https://github.com/xerxes2/panucci/c...49bce9b4744e0c

And you can find all implemented options in panucci.conf:

For your other suggestion about searching back through files I have to think a bit more if I have the energy to do it. I guess with a config option it couldn't hurt to do it.

Well, i figured that out yesterday, read the comments here:
http://maemo.org/packages/package_in...anucci/0.99.0/

What Jussi said got me very curious and when I looked more closely at the source I noticed that Panucci has three menus, Maemo, Fremantle and others. And others is what i use and there are currently 12 items in that one.

If anyone wants to take a look at it it's in main.py:
https://github.com/xerxes2/panucci/b...anucci/main.py

It starts at line 248 and then goes down a few hundred lines but it's all in the same class.

Ah, now I understand. Yes, I can confirm this. There is only 'Playlist' and 'About' at my Device. I will look into it. Perhaps I'm able to fix it.

I will try to create Buttons at create_app_menu for all Buttons I'm able to find at create_menu.

Is this the correct function? Or should I look into create_desktop_menu?
I'm not sure. What have you modified? As far as I see I must create own signals and can't use the actions from the create_app_menu function. :confused:

Mmmh... okay. I'm currently on the go. Again only with N900 and without git. But perhaps I could look into it before the weekend. (I hope so) :)

Stay tuned! :D

Re: Panucci Podcast and Audiobook Player

That would be awesome. If i could set a hundred thanks on you I would. :D And the ones that are used for others are create_actions() and create_desktop_menu(). And for this I don't need a patch as I know where it is. Just give me something and I'll add it manually if you prefer that.

Here is what it looks like on a regular box:
File menu -> http://www.ungietern.se/users/xerxes...nucci-file.jpg
Tools menu -> http://www.ungietern.se/users/xerxes...ucci-tools.jpg
Help menu -> http://www.ungietern.se/users/xerxes...nucci-help.jpg

And then there are some more Maemo specific stuff that needs to be fixed, read more here:

At maemo is only a single level for menus. No "File", "Tools" or "Help" - only a single one. It would look very flustered if we create there 3 Buttons with submenus. (possible, but bad design)

And all this Buttons at the same level would be to much. And I don't know how to implement the Checkbox for "Dual Action Button" and "Stay at End" - I've seen it before, yes. But I guess I will get in trouble to get it running... the same for the play mode Option Buttons. :confused:

Hmm... I could bet there was a Settings menu before at Maemo exaktly for the same reason. We should put everything from tools except the playlist inside there. :rolleyes:
There must exist somewhere a UI and code fragments for this... I'm sure.

At the early beginning of the N900 time I installed VMware at my Windows Machine, put a Ubuntu installation on it and installed Scratchbox and the Maemo SDK. I was able to play around with a N900 inside scratchbox to get familar with the UI and report Bugs before Nokia has shipped mine. It worked very nice and I would say Panucci should run without any problems inside there at your i386 desktop... :rolleyes: (perhaps except the sound)

Have you heard about this possibility? This way you could test the code in a more familiar environment. :)

Mh, FM Transmitter... I bought especially because of this for 200€ a new car stereo with proper Bluetooth support. :D
It haven't worked as expected. The local broadcast stadions are to strong and to crowded... there are only for some kilometers free frequencies. Great nuisance, nothing more. Nothing less. :)

In my opinion the rest is also not very important. Let's get the menu back first. :)

Re: Panucci Podcast and Audiobook Player

I agree that the Fremantle/Maemo menu is definately, by far, the most important thing to fix right now. Just do it as you think is the best way. Some of the options are not very likely to change on the fly so if there is not enough space for all I don't think it matter that much. Everything could be set in panucci.conf anyway.

Re: Panucci Podcast and Audiobook Player

I've done a git clone to prepare myself to play tomorrow with the menu buttons. To be able to test the last version and to start it easily I simply copied the source of the last git version to /opt/panucci/lib/panucci/ and replaced all files with the new version. The same with /usr/bin/panucci
I wanted to modify the source directly on the device as soon as I have some time for it.

But panucci is not loading. From the commandline I got this error:

Code:

CRITICAL:panucci Exception caught:

Traceback (most recent call last):

  File "/usr/bin/panucci", line 133, in <module>

    from panucci import main

  File "/usr/lib/python2.5/posixpath.py", line 77, in split

    i = p.rfind('/') + 1

AttributeError: 'NoneType' object has no attribute 'rfind'

Should the current git clone work if I copy it to the N900 or is it in a unusable state? :confused:
Are you trying to integrate a new feature? :)
