Re: N900 / Media Player / Random play really random?

I can't talk about Mediaplayer, but about MAFW. MAFW is actually shuffling the songs. But there's a point I have to say. Let's suppose you create a playlist with about 100 songs, puts shuffle on and start to play, and stop after 28nd clip. If you start to play again the same list from the beginning, those first 28 clips are maintained. To clear them shuffle should be put off and on again. If you want to see what Mediaplayer is doing, just use dbus-monitor to track the messages.

If you can prove that there's no legal issue with using the 'Nokia N900' brand with a third party application, maybe. Still, mafw-lastfm should work with any other device using mafw, so restricting it's app id only to the 'Nokia N900' now is not something I would like, at least not for the long term. Maybe using Listening with p, where p is a used-defined string that can be customized through the applet.

Re: Mediaplayer/GStreamer/Tracker: adding new file types?

I guess that this involves a few steps, but don't know how to achieve that: - Get Tracker to index .ts files as video files - Configure Mediaplayer to use the correct pipeline for this media type Really, MAFW is in charge of playing things, not mediaplayer. And MAFW is already using playbin2. So you only need to configure tracker to index those .ts files in order to show them as video files.

And applet is intended to change those values in gconf, though you can write your own utility to do it. But if the change is only inside the renderer, I don't see any reason why it couldn't work with the official mp, as they don't care anything about the pipeline. MTR flavour creates a new source with its own uuid (gsteqrenderer), which Mediaplayer doesn't handle. MGR flavour replaces mafw-gst-renderer, reusing the same uuid (gstrenderer), which is handle by mediaplayer. So if you want to use it with mediaplayer, you must install MGR flavour and remove old mafw-gst-renderer (to avoid conflicts as both are using the same names).

Announcement: mafw-gst-eq-renderer initial version
Hi maemoers! After reading some complaints about lack of an equalizer in N900, I've written a replacement for mafw-gst-renderer called mafw-gst-eq-renderer. It is not part of official MAFW. Roughly speaking, it is mafw-gst-renderer with a gstreamer's 10-band equalizer. There are two flavours: one intended to replace current mafw-gst-renderer, and another one intended to coexist with the original renderer. If you choose the second flavour, default mediaplayer will not be able to use it, as it only handles one renderer: mafw-gst-renderer. Both flavours come with a Control Panel applet that allows to set equalizer values, and with a set of typical presets (though you can save your own presets).

I'm asking this because there is a growing tendency among packages (especially games) in extras to toss their media files to mmc1 or mmc2, already wreaking havoc on Canola and metalayer-crawler. I think so, but not sure either. PS I don't suppose the trackerd monitored directories will be user-settable in finer granularity than mount points without manually editing config files ? I don't know if tracker supports or will support that.

Sorry if this has been asked previously, I couldn't find anything relevant in the mafw .pdf and my archive searches on the topic proved unfruitful, too. Mafw shows the clips that are provided by tracker, and tracker has predefined a set of directories where to look for media files. So the trick is to install those application's media files outside those directories.

Battery drain with Diablo 4.2008.23-14
Hello, maemoers! The battery of my N810 lasts a day after reflashing it with Diablo version 4.2008.23-14. Really I don't know why this happens. I've googled and seems this problem is reported in several places. Moreover, after a full recharge, I've flashed it, put the device in offline-mode and removed the MMC card. Without using the device at all, after one day it powers off due to lack of battery. I've repeated the process several times, even uninstalling all programs that comes with flash, and no luck. Any clue about why this happens? ___ maemo-developers mailing list maemo-developers@maemo.org https://lists.maemo.org/mailman/listinfo/maemo-developers
