> Hi,<br>
> Well, it took a lot longer than I thought - but finally - here's the alpha<br>
> release of Intone - a mplayer frontend (for audio files - as of now) in C.<br>
> Uses about 2% CPU (max) while running - memory goes up depending on your<br>
> playlist - on my phone (~2500 songs) it uses about 15%. All you need to do is<br>
> download the attached ipk and install it. Intone depends on sqlite3 and<br>
> libelementary. If you have elementary on your phone upgraded to a level where<br>
> the elementary test application shows you a demo of sliders and genlists,<br>
> Intone should run on your phone. The recommended way to organise music is to<br>
> put all the files in a folder (lets say Music), with sub folders named after<br>
> artists (say Music ->Eagles) and with sub sub folders holding albums (that<br>
> becomes Music->Eagles->Hell Freezes Over->*.mp3). That way, Intone can<br>
> correctly organise your music collection into albums. It automatically<br>
> creates a default playlist containing all songs and individual playlists for<br>
> each album. I have added features to manage playlists and albums - but there<br>
> is always scope for improvement. Intone uses a sqlite database as a backend<br>
> for the playlists and albums. That should, hopefully, give flexibility in<br>
> adding more features later. Things that don't work as of now :-<br>
><br>
> 1. Feedback. - I haven't been able to add dialogs yet. So - wait a little<br>
> while for Intone to finish long operations (like adding your music collection<br>
> for the first time - my 2500 odd songs took about 6 secs - the button remains<br>
> pressed too)<br>
> 2. Dialogs for deleting stuff. It's safe - Intone does not delete any files -<br>
> but it does delete tables(albums and playlists) - and it doesn't yet ask for<br>
> confirmation.<br>
> 3. Seek. Dont know how to use the slider for seeking. Any Ideas?<br>
> 4. DBUS. - Haven't gotten around to learning edbus - so no occupy resouce CPU<br>
> or pause on incoming calls yet. Will take some more time.<br>
> 5. Album art and lyrics. - Don't yet know the best way to go about doing this<br>
> other than downloading art from some retailers etc. Ideas welcome.<br>
> 6. Toggle View. Not working yet. I intend having 2 more views - Album Art and<br>
> Lyrics.<br>
><br>
> I'm also looking at adding support for the button that the standard<br>
> handsfree has - as a volume control (3 preselcted levels in rotation) or to<br>
> go to next song (1 click) and prev song (2 clicks). Any suggestions?<br>
><br>
> Since I also have half a podcast manager built (which I couldn't finish in<br>
> time for the competition) - I'm also looking at adding that support in the<br>
> future.<br>
><br>
> Feedback Required<br>
> 1. Bug reports.<br>
> 2. Artwork - Ideas / png's / whatever<br>
> 3. Elementary help. I have a lot of questions. Here are a few :-<br>
> a) How do I reduce the vert height of 1 entry in the genlist? Right now<br>
> each line in the list is too high (almost 3 text lines high) - so I get only<br>
> about 4 song names on the screen. Can I reduce the height to say 1.5 text<br>
> line - 2 text line? b) How do I use the pager with a genlist? In my case the<br>
> pager works - but it doesn't show the genlist - the buttons all show up<br>
> though. c) Dialogs and progress bars. I know elementary doesn't have them -<br>
> but can I make/have a simple ty solution for the time being?<br>
><br>
> Oh! And I'm only adding .oga, .mp3, .m4a and wma files into the albums. Any<br>
> other types I need to add?<br>
><br>
> I'll upload the code to <a href="http://intone.googlecode.com" target="_blank">intone.googlecode.com</a> soon.<br>
> All feedback welcome. Thanks.<br>
