Hi, i have written an xmms2 client, which displays desktop notifications using libnotify. The notfications show the title, artist, album and cover art for the currently playing song and appear everytime a new song starts playing.
The source code is available under http://git.xmms.se/?p=xmms2-notify.git. It is written in Python. In addition to xmms2's python bindings you need pygtk and pynotify (apt-get install python-notify). The module musicbrainz2 (apt-get install python-musicbrainz2) is suggested but not required. To install xmms2-notify, run following commands. git clone git://git.xmms.se/xmms2/xmms2-notify.git cd xmms2-notify sudo python setup.py install ln -s /usr/local/bin/xmms2-notify ~/.config/xmms2/startup.d/xmms2-notify Now xmms2-notify starts when xmms2d is started and quits when xmms2d shuts down. So if xmms2d ist still running you should restart it now. Feedback is welcome. Thanks. Regards Sebastian Noack
