Description Bernd Helm 2010-06-08 02:17:34 UTC
Version:           2.3.1-GIT (using KDE 4.4.3) 
OS:                Linux

signals like trackStop and amarokShutdown seem to be missing from amarok 2.0 Scripting API.

trackStop: sould be emitted if the user stops the track. currently, only a trackChanged (or trackPlayPause, do not remember surely) is emitted, but as the track is fading out at this time, there is no (or i see no) easy way to find out that the track is going to stop.

amarokShutdown: this sould be emitted just before amarok shuts down and give the connected scripts a second to do actions.

sorry if i just missed something, iam new to amarok scripting. i need these kind of notification for a mood script that also change the mood when playback is stoppend or amarok is shut down.

Reproducible: Always

There is also a trackInfoChanged() (or trackMetaDataChanged()) signal missing.

i.e. if you are listening to a internet radio stream, the track info changes every new track, but amarok does not give any script a note about that.

Same for single mp3 files that contain more than one track information.

amarok: END__: void CurrentTrack::dataUpdated(const QString&, const Plasma::DataEngine::Data&) - Took 0.00087s 
amarok: BEGIN: void EngineController::slotMetaDataChanged() 
amarok:   [EngineController] Artist     :  ("") 
amarok:   [EngineController] Album      :  ("Antena Zagreb") 
amarok:   [EngineController] Title      :  ("Madonna - Sorry (Short version)")

amarok:        Applying new Metadata.

Hi there,

please read the information and links in this wiki page:  http://community.kde.org/Amarok/Development/Join. You can get in touch with us in #amarok on irc.freenode.net and subscribe to the amarok-devel@kde.org mailing list.

To hack on Amarok You should build Amarok from source. For a local build please have a look at this guide: http://blogs.fsfe.org/myriam/2009/09/compiling-amarok-from-git-locally-full-summary/
