96667 2005-01-09 21:57:19 +0000 WISH: ability to scan a "Covers" directory inside each song dir from where a cover may be loaded 2009-08-03 11:17:59 +0000 1 1 2 Applications amarok general unspecified Compiled Sources Linux RESOLVED DUPLICATE 176402 NOR wishlist --- 1 carlos_tocha amarok-bugs-null linux 113 oldest_to_newest 301444 0 carlos_tocha 2005-01-09 21:57:19 +0000 Version: (using KDE KDE 3.3.2) Installed from: Compiled From Sources OS: Linux It would be nice if amaroK could scan a directory "Covers" inside each directory containing songs, and if this directory was found, scan it for the covers. I wish this because all of my songs are sorted this way, and it is normal pratice in full albuns downloaded from P2Ps like eMule (aMule). I know I can made a symlink, but it will look ugly... PS: Great app, I started to amaroK today (January 09, 2005) and like it a lot! I even made a audioscrobbler account... 309485 1 tightcode 2005-02-02 18:16:13 +0000 I previously kept also subfolders for the purpouse of non-audio files whether lyrics, covers, personal comments etc... I would find it interesting to have defineable subfolders to search for this information so that it could be tailored to each users preference and not hardcoded to match the most common. At the moment since I have become very attached to amaroK I have just copied in each folder the cover from the subfolder into the main folder with the audio files. 334077 2 yallaone 2005-04-13 10:04:49 +0000 This makes perfect sense for a distributed environment where all clients on various PCs mount their music directory over NFS, and gets the music/albumart as primary source, and ~/.kde/apps/amarok/... as second source) Maybe it could even be expanded to a common lyric naming convention so that lyrics in the same directory with the same name as an MP3/OGG in the parent directory automatically gets loaded? 334825 3 tightcode 2005-04-15 17:18:54 +0000 Halim: And for expanded functionality for those wanting video capabilities in amaroK, perhaps add a link to the music video for the song if it is detected as well in the form of "Click here to view the music video". This wishl item would allow future expansion for albumart, lyrics, videos and anything else which could be particular to a song/album/artist etc.. 398418 4 mdhowe 2005-12-14 12:34:31 +0000 *** This bug has been confirmed by popular vote. *** 509551 5 danny.cabelo 2007-02-16 16:20:17 +0000 Its hard, but its need be fully configurable. I have a large music library very well organized that I use for computer and easy burnable/copyable for dvd players and mp3/mp4 devices. All my covers are in the album folder named like: "front.jpg" and "back.jpg". All my lyrics are mirrored in another directory structure. Sample: /MP3/Electronic/Infected Mushroom/2004 IM The Supervisor/*.mp3 /MP3/Electronic/Infected Mushroom/2004 IM The Supervisor/2004 IM The Supervisor.m3u /MP3/Electronic/Infected Mushroom/2004 IM The Supervisor/front.jpg /MP3/Electronic/Infected Mushroom/2004 IM The Supervisor/back.jpg And my lyrics are at: /Lyrics/Electronic/Infected Mushroom/2004 IM The Supervisor/*.txt/*.srt/*.htm With this structure, I maintain a lyric library (with their html viewable and printable and karaoke subtitles) easily navigable from a website without exposing my mp3s. A library management tool can be useful with use of TAGs variables and a configuration screen. And better, a "Process Library" button to re-organize files based in its configurations. Plus, the cover manager and lyric finder/manager/scripts must be able to put the covers in the previously configured library manager. 803604 6 myriam 2009-08-03 11:17:59 +0000 This is already possible to some extend, see also bug 176402, hence marking this a duplicate *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 176402 ***
