In Export / Share / > Imgur menu. Like this: I know how to make screenshots and how to upload them somewhere. But I am unwilling to. I am simply not your personally screenshot service provider. If you like to know how it looks like why do you not invest some time instead of requesting that I do? Especially as it does not look any different than what is shown in the mini picture at https://amarok.kde.org/ as well as the pictures on: https://amarok.kde.org/en/screenshots.html (At least I don't see any difference, maybe there are slight changes I did not recognize.) So sure I *can* provide screenshots, but I am unwilling to take the time to do it. So I am not doing it, no matter how hard you try to persuade me. Especially as I also would scrub them for privacy as its my business as to what music I listen to. And this takes time as well. Anyway I do not even need to justify it. I am unwilling to invest any time, so… that is about it. You kindly asked, and I kindly said "no". Can we leave it at that? Thanks, -- Martin

I like it. One of the best music players for KDE.

I'd rather not go through the hassle to scrub an image for privacy, upload it somewhere and then post a link here. When you press Print Screen key on your keyboard, you have an option to upload directly to Imgur (in KDE's Spectacle tool). In Export / Share / Imgur menu. Like this: https://i.imgur.com/v68Xl7j.png Exactly the same option exists in Gwenview, default KDE image viewer. And of course, when you do a screenshot, use Rectangle Region area option, Active Window. That way, you only capture what you want, not an entire desktop. Does it have smart playlists, like Strawberry Music Player, or old Winamp? Pretty similar than before. Not sure what you refer to with smart playlists. I do not know Strawberry Music Player and Winamp. Old Amarok had some auto DJ feature where it would add titles based on what is already in playlist. However I do not see that in Amarok 3 at the moment. There may still be some features from the old Amarok missing. I used Amarok briefly years ago, but I don't remember if it has dynamic playlists (smart playlists like Strawberry player calls it). I am still not settled on music player. My simple requirement is that I can create a playlist, which dynamically loads songs, for example filter based on name, or song length, or number of stars in the rating, or my play count. If music player does not have this feature is pretty much useless to manage a big music collection, because I can't even load my favourite songs. -- With kindest regards, Piotr. ⢀⣴⠾⠻⢶⣦⠀ ⣾⠁⢠⠒⠀⣿⡁ Debian - The universal operating system ⢿⡄⠘⠷⠚⠋⠀ https://www.debian.org/ ⠈⠳⣄

The Amarok is here again!
Hi! Amarok 3.0.1 in Debian experimental! How nice is that? I removed my old configuration as the main window layout looked a bit awkward with it. Still currently the middle pane did not show anything initially. Even after adding something that some thing briefly appeared and disappeared. But after some resizing of the panes inside the window and trying again, it works. The legendary Amarok is playing music again! Thank you Amarok developers and thank you Pino! Currently Amarok is still Qt 5 based – well that in itself is a feat as it needed to be ported to that! –, there is hope for Qt 6 based version later this year. Best, -- Martin
