Version: 2.2.1.90 (using 4.3.85 (KDE 4.3.85 (KDE 4.4 Beta2)), Gentoo) Compiler: x86_64-pc-linux-gnu-gcc OS: Linux (x86_64) release 2.6.32 I wish amarok to be able to generate .mood files for the moodbar.
http://amarok.kde.org/wiki/Moodbar contains contradicting information: "...and support code in the Amarok source, which runs the binary and displays the moodbar." -- this says that Amarok can run the moodbar analyzer "Currently moodbars files will have to be generated manually." -- says that Amarok cannot do that

Created attachment 41707 [details] mood generator
Comment on attachment 41707 [details] mood generator the attached file, is a script that I use to generate the mood file. Maybe you could implement something like this, that, when the user scans the collection, generates also the mood files

This would probably satisfy everyone :) See also http://amarok.kde.org/wiki/Development/Scripting_HowTo_2.0

Hm, if you can write bash scripts, Javascript should not be a problem at all :)
Amarok should be able to generate mood files on the fly and put it in it's own folder instead of spamming my music collection.
I also wish that KDE does this and provides the option to store the .mood file either in the amarok directory or in the same directory as the music file. Generating the moodbar files manually is like absence of a feature from Amarok
Here you go: http://kde-apps.org/content/show.php?content=125137 Enjoy :) Noy perfect solution (will do it for all files and not for only current in next version), but at least something.

The previous script is deprecated. Here is a different one: http://kde-apps.org/content/show.php/Moodbar+Generator?content=135625 I'm testing it and I haven't found any problem yet. It generates moodbar files for the songs in the playlist.
This wish has been granted.This report should be removed.
Indeed, moodbar is integrated in Amarok now since quite a while.
This bug is about GENERATING mood files by Amarok, not displying them. Please reopen and read bug reports more carefully. Also: don't beleive spammers.
Ouch, my bad, sorry for the noise.
The script posted by Emilio works really well. Though obviously, it has an external dependency, the moodbar binary.
(In reply to comment #18) > The script posted by Emilio works really well. > Though obviously, it has an external dependency, the moodbar binary. Well, this is currently not very high on our wishlist, we certainly don't want to integrate another binary in our code.
