Re: Help wanted to evolve KDEs music players
On Thursday, July 30, 2015 12:42:14 Stefan Derkits wrote: Dear all, in discussions during Akademy 2015 we found out that while we have with Plasma 5 a Desktop that has a modern consistent look, the state of some applications isn't that good. And we want to change that. At the moment KDE has no up-to-date music player. JuK is very simple to use, but lacking a modern design. Amarok is and will stay the swiss-knife of KDE music players, but also lacking a modern design and may be too complicated for new users. So let's make a new music player, a successor especially to JuK Bangarang. A music player not for power users or music enthusiasts that want/need 100s of features in a player but a simple player designed made for users of the Plasma 5 Desktop. What do we already have: -) A design vision by the VDG including UI mockups user stories [0] What do we need: -) More People to discuss flesh out the vision [1] -) A motivated team of designers, software architects, coders testers, dedicated to creating a modern music player for our users This music player should not replace Amarok or other great Qt-based music players like Tomahawk or Clementine, as their feature set is much bigger than this new music player should ever have. So if you are interested, contact me either in person on Akademy, on IRC (HorusHorrendus @ freenode) or via mail (stefan [at] derkits.at) Excellent idea, a no-nonsense thing that opens audio files is much needed. Have you thought about picking up and taking over Amarok? A quick look at the commit log for the past few months suggests that it's essentially unmaintained, so if it keeps this pace it's unlikely to stay the swiss-knife of music players as you suggest. This stuff is hard and time consuming so I think it makes sense to reuse code. While Amarok does have a sizeable feature set, a good portion of those features are either poorly designed, broken or outdated. Perhaps by taking over as maintainer, yanking out all the cruft and taking UX hints from the VDG you could get a modern and pretty music player up and running more quickly and easily than jumping into the umpteenth magic rewrite that will fix all things forever. You could cut down on the feature set significantly, and present the features that you don't remove in a much better way.

Another problem is that tracks in playlists aren't playable anymore after I restart Amarok.

For those curious, tomahawk service is using capabilities, since it's the less intrusive way to play tomahawk streams in the EngineController. Right now I'm coding some logic(Creating a wrapper to AclRegistry class) to allow amarok to display dialogs showing other users requests to be able to listen to your streams. Next steps include the following: - Display tomahawk service connectivity information in the amarok diagnostics dialog. - Make other peers aware of what you're listening to. - Add a menu with options to disconnect tomahawk sips, listen music in private and etc. - Use SqlCollection QueryMaker, instead of a full scan, to sync tomahawk db for the first time.

Because I haven't understood is my proposal acceptable or not. If there are any requirements in some details which you want to know, please tell me directly what are them. If there is a need in some external actions from my side(for example discussing my proposal with Tomahawk community) tell me what should I do. any reason for using QXmpp libjingle instead jreen [0], that is used by Tomahawk? Well I didn't know that Tomahawk already used jreen library. If it's so there is no problems in using jreen for me. By the way, the reasons of using QXmpp libjingle were discribed in my proposal. The quote from my application about this: XMPP protocol provides features of instant messaging and sending invitations. It’s available to send XML data through messages . So it’ll be used for: sharing tracks through messages or invitations getting friend’s collection of Amarok There is a good Qt library QXmpp[5][6] for those purposes. Jingle is an extension to XMPP which the main feature for project is music streaming. So it allows to implement: stream tracks from friend’s collection listen to something what user’s friends do For implementation it’ll be used a linjingle SDK [7][8] a collection of C++ code which provide Jingle protocol abilities. Both protocols and their SDKs have nice documentation and QXmpp people say that it’s pretty intuitive and easy to use. [5] http://code.google.com/p/qxmpp/ [6] http://qxmpp.googlecode.com/svn/tags/qxmpp-0.3.93/doc/html/index.html [7] https://developers.google.com/talk/libjingle/?hl=ru-RU [8] https://developers.google.com/talk/libjingle/developer_guide?hl=en Also I don't understand what is the connection between Amarok Tomahawk? Aren't these projects seperate? As a seperate project, Amarok has no need in implimentation particulary with jreen. I find that QXmpp libjingle are much better tools for implementation beacuse there is a nice documentation while jreen hasn't such a thing. It would delay my work and will lead to unreasonable discussions with Tomahawk community while I could just check the documentation in the case with QXmpp libjingle. If you think that my reasons haven't enough sense that would be ok. As I said there is no problems for me in using jreen but I'm not sure that it has enough features for implementation. Hello, Maybe we haven't been clear enough: we need a completely Tomahawk-compatible feature. It should work like Tomahawk and also look kinda reminescent of Tomahawk. Since Tomahawk is Free software, and Amarok is Free software, and the Tomahawk devs are plain awesome and building a great product, it makes no sense to me if we reinvented an incompatible wheel. If you're still interested in the project under these constraints, I suggest you check out Tomahawk's code and propose a sensible way to satisfy those requirements.

Bart tends to be quite busy some days but he does follow the mailing list. I suggest you prepare a draft of your proposal, send it to the mailing list, and some Amarok team members (possibly including Bart) will review it. You could also email him privately I guess, but it is very common in Free Software projects to keep technical questions and discussions public in mailing lists. Don't worry about mentor assignments: those are done later on in the process when student proposals are evaluated and selected.

Re: GSoC Proposal: Statistics synchronization for pluggable devices and Last.fm
On Wed, Mar 21, 2012 at 00:06, Matěj Laitl ma...@laitl.cz wrote: Hi Teo, Bart and list, as suggested by Teo, I've decided to try to take part in GSoC 2012 working as a student on Amarok. My idea is not on the KDE Ideas page, but I've been playing with (a variant of it) for months. Continues a very draft of my GSoC proposal. I'd be very grateful for any possible comments, pointed-out omissions or questions that may arise. Introduction === Amarok has an ability to store per-track play statistics such as play count, first last played date, rating and labels. It then has powerful means to generate custom-tailored playlists based on gathered statistics (e.g.: play me what I've listened to last month) that many users like to exploit. This works well when your computer is the only device you play music from. More likely situation is that you play music using Amarok at home, listen to iPod while commuting and use Amarok or another music player at work. All these 3 devices are able to keep track of what you've listened to, but each one only a third of it, which makes Amarok statistics more or less useless. This project aims to remedy the situation; Last.fm is an online service that can keep track of music a user listens to[1] and can help us with a part of this project. Amarok Users group on Last.fm has over 23 000 users.[2] Project Goals This project will implement: * track statistics synchronization between Amarok collections that support statistics; these are currently Local Collection and iPod Collection, but the framework will be general * Last.fm scrobbling from pluggable media players that support statistics (iPods, currently) using the general framework from previous point * ability to synchronize labels from Amarok to Last.fm * ability to synchronize play counts, first last played date from Last.fm to Amarok collections (other way around is already implemented by scrobbling) * GUI dialogue for performing the synchronization/resolving conflicts Bonus points (what will Amarok gain for free): * ability to synchronize statistics of Amarok and other media player that scrobbles to Last.fm * track statistics backup through Last.fm Caveats: * Last.fm has no concept of track ratings. This can be however worked around by special Last.fm-side labels such as 7/10 stars * advanced features will be only available for Last.fm users; Last.fm is free to use, but the data are public which may be unpleasant for certain users Implementation = Amarok represents audio tracks by Meta::Track abstract C++ class that provides getter methods for meta-data (title, artist, album..) and getter/setter methods for statistics (rating, play count...). These tracks are grouped into so-called Collections, where each Collection represents one source of songs (iPod, Local, USB Mass Storage..). Tracks from different collections will be matched together using their meta-data and other collection's QueryMaker to perform the search. Moreover, iPods provide additional data that can be used for conflict-resolution: app_rating and recent_playcount. [3] I plan to expose these as new capability offered by Collections. This capability will also be used to implement Last.fm scrobbling from iPods (in fact, every collection that will support this capability), exploiting recent_playcount field in the iPod case. It should be noted that I have already implemented similar synchronization in my spare time back in summer 2011 [4], but I was not satisfied with its iPod-specific design and GUI, so I decided not to strive for its inclusion. But I have the code working and ported to Amarok 2.5, so it can be used to fast-start this project. Another interesting note is that scrobble-from-iPod-to-Last.fm was functional in Amarok 1.4 days, but this feature got dropped during rewrites leading to 2.0, so this will fix one long-overdue regression. Speaking about Last.fm integration, Last.fm provides rather nice RESTful API [5] a subset of which is already used through liblastfm [6] library in Amarok to submit (scrobble) currently played songs. I plan to reuse this library and Amarok code dealing with it; the Last.fm API is powerful enough to support all claimed features. There is already even Last.fm on-line service Collection, but it focuses on playing Last.fm radio streams and doesn't handle individual tracks. In order to implement actual synchronization with Last.fm, user's Last.fm Library (that contains relevant track data) can be represented as a new (invisible) Collection or as special case in synchronizer, I have yet to decide this design choice. Timeline = [To be done when the general idea is accepted.] Generally: inter-collection synchronization will be first and will be done by the midterm evaluation, Last.fm support will be second. I'm already quite bound to Amarok community, so I can finish the design, iron-out some details and perhaps

So right now I can only advise you to think hard about it and try to define the requirements that need to be fulfilled. Lastly, I wanted to know how much I should pursue sparql. I have gone through sample sparql queries, but not tried any implementation with respect to my project. Please advise me on that.

(Updated March 9, 2012, 11:31 p.m.)
Review request for Amarok and Teo Mrnjavac.
Description
---
Rework transcoding: remember encoder, transcode on move, cleaner code
This is a major rework of transcoding feature that brings following
user-visible changes to Amarok:
* Amarok can remember preferred transcoding configuration per each
collection that supports transcoding. Therefore, the Use default
configuration work-around can go away and the Transcode or copy?
dialog can (and is) be one-step now. This preference can be changed
in configuration.
* Transcoding is now supported even during the move operation. No
worries, only successfully transcoded tracks are removed from their
original location.
* Only formats playable on the target collection are offered. Already
used tested in yet-to-be-merged iPod collection rewrite.
* The Organize Tracks dialog title and progress bar operation name
now more verbosely describe actual operation to prevent user
mistakes.
* Double-transcode when ripping audio CDs that caused failures is
avoided. (ChangeLog entry for this was miscredited to my earilier
commit)
Technically, following changes are made:
* many methods that accepted optional TranscodingConfiguration now
either have it mandatory or not at all.
* TranscodingConfiguration's NULL_CODEC was splitted to JUST_COPY and
INVALID along with convenience methods isValid() and isJustCopy().
This simplifies logic in many methods.
* CollectionLocation::prepare{Copy,Move}() now don't have optional
TranscodingConfiguration parameter. Depending on target collection,
CollectionLocation determines it automatically or asks user in
showSourceDialog() (overridable). AudioCdCollectionLocation already
overrides it.
* Collections that support transcoding now should expose
TranscodeCapability which is used to a) indicate that transcoding
is supported; b) query which file formats are playable on target
collection; c) read save unset preferred transcoding parameters.
Why the hell the new Capability?
Many Amarok devs dislike the concept of capabilities[1]. Why the hell I
introduced the new one? In ideal world Amarok would be able to transcode
everything regardless of the target collection. This is however not
doable witch current copyUrlToCollection() design - target collection
needs to do non-trivial things such as re-reading file tags, accounting
for different file name and space requirements etc. See my comments in
[1]. We therefore need a way for target collection to indicate it
supports transcoding (in order not to fool user). Some collection
locations such as TrashCollectionLocation should even intentionally
disallow transcoding. Additionally, we want to be able to query
supported destination file formats, to save preferred transcoding
paremeters etc.
I simply didn't want to pollute already over-crowded CollectionLocation
with three more methods used by only a few subclasses. On the other
hand, TranscodeCapability is not the central idea of this patch and I
can factor it into CollectionLocation should there be a voice supporting
it.

I am very excited about this project and for the past few days i have trying to figure out the working of Tomahawk. Implementing its features in Amarok is a great idea !!!. As of now, i have found that Tomahawk uses Playdar a music content resolver, which has an embedded server that allows interaction between user, desktop apps and web apps and also the communication between various script resolvers. Since, tomahawk provides various resolvers ranging from twitter,youtube,spotify etc. I wanted to know that which features do we exactly need to implement in Amarok and how should i proceed for implementation of these features in Amarok ?? This is a good question, and seeking a good answer is one of the creative duties of the student as well ;) As for me, I think Amarok already has a very good web services framework, so any Tomahawk integration project should definitely focus on the social music aspect rather than the various resolvers. Namely, we'd like to be able to stream from a collection on another user's Amarok or Tomahawk instance. Ideally I'd like to see a my buddies GUI element with a contact list and a way to query and stream from my friends' collections. On the other hand, if Tomahawk already provides a library for that, then the GSoC project could be to integrate that library.

Since, I am based in India where spotify has not yet been launched, I think its not possible for me to work on this project :( Anyways, i have gone through another project i.e Tomahawk features in amarok. I will be glad if you could tell me how to go about this project and the prerequisites for the project. Hi, Again I can't advise you in detail because it's not my area of expertise, but the goal of this project would be to develop a service that implements Tomahawk's protocol. If you haven't already you might want to start by trying Tomahawk. There are several ways to find friends, the easiest one is a Google Talk account, and this plus streaming is what we want in Amarok. Tomahawk's code could be very useful for inspiration when doing this. Bart could probably give you more technical information about the task.

I am a 3rd year Computer Science student and really excited about GSoC this year. I was going through the KDE projects and found out about the project Spotify Collection. I liked the idea of integrating it into amarok. I have also had a look at Spotify API and observed that they have a well documented API that allows developers to write different applications that utilize the music streaming service. I have been programming in C, C++, JAVA for the past three years. I will be extremely glad if some of you could tell me how to go about the project and the programming skills required to successfully complete the project. I basically want to know how to start working on the project and learn the required skills. IRC NICK : vikash23. Hello Vikash, thanks for choosing Amarok! I'm an Amarok developer but not the one that originally posted the Spotify Collection idea, he's away at the moment but I wanted to let you know we're not ignoring you :) I personally don't know much about Spotify, but from what I gather it's only available in a restricted set of countries. For this GSoC project it is required that the student has access to a Spotify subscription from his/her place of residence, I don't know where you're based but keep that in mind before preparing a proposal. You can find some general information about getting involved with KDE as a GSoC student here [1], and here [2] are some accepted proposals from past years. If you wish to take part in GSoC with Amarok we advise you to prepare a draft of your proposal(s) well before the deadline and submit it for review on this mailing list so we can help you improve it. If you have more specific questions feel free to ask here, otherwise for general KDE+GSoC related questions #kde-soc is the place to be ;) [1] http://community.kde.org/GSoC [2] http://goo.gl/EvyrX Cheers, -- Teo Mrnjavac ___ Amarok-devel mailing list Amarok-devel@kde.org https://mail.kde.org/mailman/listinfo/amarok-devel

Summary --- One of the things that bugs me about Amarok is that if it crashes (as it tends to do on logout, for me), the playlist is lost, and next time you start it up it gives you the playlist from the last time it exited properly. This fixes that by auto-saving the playlist state. It schedules a save for 5 seconds in the future when a change is made to the playlist - any changes made withing those 5 seconds will not trigger a further save, but will be included in the scheduled save. This prevents the disk being hammered when making a flurry of changes. Possibly this timeout should be longer - 20 seconds?

Re: Amarok architecture page - playlist documentation

It might be a good idea to include it in the playlist section in this page: http://amarok.kde.org/wiki/Development/Architecture. I also suggest that the following link: http://doc.qt.nokia.com/latest/model-view-programming.htmlhttp://doc.qt.no kia.com/latest/model-view-programming.html#proxy-models should be added to both the comments in that file and the architecture page since it explains the model-view concepts and proxy models quite well. I was able to understand how the playlist worked a lot better after reading that page. Thanks, Sandeep Hey there, First, thanks for the effort of discussing documentation related issues (there are quite some) in Amarok, but... I'm *all* for doing this the other way around: Better put the class/architectural documentation into the source code as far as possible. Qt does that very heavily and succeeds in providing an comprehensive and up-to-date source code documentation as developers are still paying attention to it. I'm not really convinced that stuff like that should go to a Wiki anyway. (You could still link from the Wiki to our apidocs, though). Reasoning is obvious: * Wiki-Documentation quickly gets out of date / out of sync with source code. * Long-time involved developers (as me) don't look at / adjust it at all. (I'm pretty sure I'm not the only one here, heh) Doing inline documentation will also have the positive side-effect that our API-docs may get polished sooner or later. Thoughts? What Kevin said. Typing // or /** and then some stuff is way quicker and easier than editing some wiki page. The time that would be wasted on wiki markup is better spent coding and documenting inline. There's of course no problem in generating apidocs from there or even copying it to a wiki, but documentation in the code should come first.

[amarok] /: Add Rick W. Chen to Authors list.
Git commit dbd88769054e899d3090f74733e5f7c56139b8eb by Teo Mrnjavac. Committed on 28/05/2011 at 18:56. Pushed by mrnjavac into branch 'master'. Add Rick W. Chen to Authors list. Rick W. Chen has been nominated for author status twice, once in November 2010 and once again in January 2011. He has been with us since 2009, and he is undoubtedly one of the most prolific Amarok contributors of all time [1]. During the last discussion there seem to have been no objections over his author status, but he was never added to the About dialog, which is an unfortunate oversight. The present commit corrects that oversight, and I'm happy to be the first to congratulate Rick on this recognition of his accomplishments.

Although I'd recommend to drop the additional collection implementation or make it an optional goal. In my opinion properly untangling the dependency mess that is Amarok, not only with respect to Backend-GUI but also Backend-Backend, is going to be hard enough. There should be network based collection implementation (Ampache?) that are good enough for testing purposes and don't bring any additional dependencies. Thank you. As advised, I've made it an optional goal. Cheers, -- Teo ___ Amarok-devel mailing list Amarok-devel@kde.org https://mail.kde.org/mailman/listinfo/amarok-devel

It's very unlikely I can participate any Saturday, especially this week. Is there any possibility we can still reschedule, preferably on a weekday. I'll be away all day on Saturday too. :( Valorie Ok, I've reopened the poll and added a few days after.
