Description Nick Shaforostoff 2003-10-15 19:18:40 UTC
Version:            (using KDE KDE 3.1.1)
Installed from:    Mandrake RPMs
OS:          Linux

The thing that I want is ability of playlist statistics generation (in html).
It should have an average songs duration & bitrate.
General playlist duration, size of songs.
And, of course, song titles (optionaly with time and bitrate).

Shouldn't this be assigned to Juk?
Comment 2 Stefan Gehn 2003-10-15 22:19:24 UTC
What does JuK have to do with missing Noatun features?
Comment 3 Thiago Macieira 2003-10-15 22:54:24 UTC
Well, I was just wondering if JuK wouldn't be a more suitable program for this feature. The two don't have to duplicate each other's functionality and, IMO, Juk is a better place to handle and store playlists. 
Comment 4 Stefan Gehn 2003-10-15 23:29:39 UTC
Ahh, of course, Noatun has no Playlist ;)

MusicMan can do it for you.

in waiting for full-featured and flexible JuK...
Comment 7 Stefan Gehn 2003-12-03 19:42:44 UTC
I'm reopening this because I don't see why another app "solves" this problem in Noatun. It's a Noatun wishlist item and I think it's possible to add the feature even if the original reporter is not interested in the feature anymore.

saying truth:
I cant find *real* replace for winamp - xmms crashes on non-existing file, i cant move more than one file in playlist at the same time...

noautun has even less features (kde 3.1.1a)

i just want flexible grabber, player and music-manager. And they should be integrated each vs other.

btw: cant understand why artsd is still developed - both oss and arts aint work fine (4 me)

> I cant find *real* replace for winamp - xmms crashes on non-existing file,
well, winamp crashes a lot for me when I'm under windows :)
My xmms doesn't crash on non existing files.

> i cant move more than one file in playlist at the same time... 
Uhm, hold Ctrl down while you select the items you want to move, now drag them somewhere else. Both Noatuns default splitplaylist and my own flexplaylist do that fine.

> noatun has even less features (kde 3.1.1a) 
I don't understand that sentence, we don't remove features, usually we add them. And btw, kde 3.1.1 is old.

For the music-manager there's Juk, for a grabber you just type audiocd://, for everyday-playing I'd prefer noatun or xmms over JuK.

You're mixing up things and alsa does
a) not work properly for everbody so oss is still fine
b) does not give you software-mixing of sounds if your soundcard does not do this (artsd can do that and is one reason for having it)
c) lacks both readable documentation and changelogs so you have no idea how to fix your install

Anyway, if I have the time after 3.2 is out I'll try to do a template-based html playlist export with optional statistics, for Noatun of course.

i mean noatun has less (nto more) features than xmms.

> And btw, kde 3.1.1 is old. 
i cant download every kde bugfix release

> for a grabber you just type audiocd://
yes, it converts on-the-fly, but it uses lamelib 3.93, w/o --alt-presets
and i prefer lame 3.90.3 (i have only executable, w/o lib) and '--alt-preset standard' option

artsd vs oss vs alsa: forget. just wait for few years and then we'll see
Comment 11 Nick Shaforostoff 2004-03-20 12:28:42 UTC
I believe that noautun will be replaced by amarok, so this bugreport has no reason.

I'll think about reporting this for juk
