As the original developers have suspended work on this “elegant music client for MPD”
(the latest commit in the official repository is dated 29 Oct 2009), I decided to make some
improvements and bugfixes on my own. And here they are…
IMPLEMENTED FEATURES:
- panel icons for Ubuntu Mono Dark icon theme (see umd-icons branch)
- saving fetched lyrics into mp3’s id3tags (requires python eyeD3 module)
- temporary disabling gnome-screensaver in fullscreen mode
- some improvements for multi-CD albums
- support for MPD “single” and “consume” modes (requires latest development version
of python-mpd, because current stable v0.2.1 doesn’t support these MPD modes; you
can get latest version from jatreuman.indefero.net or thejat.be)
TODO:
- ‘Love’ button for last.fm
- ‘alway start in tray’ option into preferences
- open playlists like directories in playlist tab
- ‘add all from this artist/album/genre’ menu item
- do not show notification if sonata is active/visible
- ability to hide “XX songs, XX minutes” line in artists library view
- automatic feeding playlist with similar tracks from mpd library
- support for composer, conductor and may be some other tags
- playlist of local tracks that are loved/toprated on last.fm (may be as a separate plugin)
- reading artworks from id3tags
