 Posted: Thu Jun 08, 2006 8:08 pm Post subject: Exaile - new audio player, similar to Amarok, but for Gtk+ |
 |
|
Hello 
I don't see anything about Exaile on forum, so i place information here
I think some people, who prefers, want to test it - today latest version is 0.2beta, but it's quite stable - i listen to a music on it for a few hours and it works 
Exaile - it is nice, small but functional audio player written in wxPython. It can fetching album art and lyrics, take information about album/artist from wikipedia, have last.fm support and more...
To install it on your Gentoo, you must emerge all dependencies (requirements are on site) from portage:
| Code: | | emerge -av mutagen python gstreamer wxpython pymad pyogg pysqlite imaging mutagen gst-plugins-good dbus |
Then download source from site - http://www.exaile.org/files/exaile-0.2b.tar.gz
Next:
| Code: | | tar -xvvzf exaile-0.2b.tar.gz && cd exaile_0.2b && make && make install |
Then as user, just:
It should open something like this:
[IMG]http://img342.imageshack.us/img342/695/exaile15pn.th.jpg[/IMG]
Try it, maybe you like it as much as i do
Maybe somebode can do an ebuild for this ....

wow, that looks promising :]
i don't think the ebuild would be too hard to make, unless there are some bugs with compilation.

Thanks for the ebuild.
I had to install media-plugins/gst-plugins-gconf as it complained about no "gconfaudiosink" and would not start. Okay after that.

Plays my mp3 files just fine but not able to connect to a stream. Suspect it has something to do with it
not connecting to dbus. Dbus is compiled with the "python" use flag so must be missing something else.

Hi, nesl247 thanks for your ebuild. I noticed one mistake: >=media-plugins/gst-libs-gconf-0.10 should be >=media-plugins/gst-plugins-gconf-0.10.
Thanks |

Did you install by ebuild or by "my way" ?
Did you try to rm -r .exaile ?
Is the same situation on root and user ? |

Where do you see this? I just double checked the ebuild..
No problem for making it for you guys. And as far as the seg fault, it isn't the problem with the ebuild.. Have to remember, this is beta software (according to their site) |

.exaile isn't even created before it segfaults and I tried both root and user. Any tracebacks I can do? |

a have the same problem with dbus apps. the problem is that dbus does not provide any session by default in gentoo.
add this to the beginning of your .xinitrc (if you use startx to launch an X session), or to your startup scripts
| Code: | dbuslaunch="`which dbus-launch 2>/dev/null`"
if [ -n "$dbuslaunch" ] && [ -x "$dbuslaunch" ] && [ -z "$DBUS_SESSION_BUS_ADDRESS" ]; then
eval `$dbuslaunch --sh-syntax --exit-with-session`

Thanks for your reply, but that's script is already part of dbus-0.61-r1 "/etc/X11/xinit/xinitrc.d/30-dbus" that I have installed,
So must be something else. |

Yay, I found out what the problem was: I had to downgrade libsdl. It seems there are some problems with wxwidgets applications and the latest libsdl version. VLC segfaulting was also solved. |

Hi guys,
great program. Even though i was only able to see it once so far...
The first time after installing it it crashed. I tried it again, it worked and took some time to read my files. It wasn't able to play anything though. It kind of said it did, but then i didn't hear anything and the slider and time didn't move at all. Now when i start it, it says this:
| Code: | samuel@stradivari ~ $ exaile
/usr/lib/python2.4/site-packages/wx-2.6-gtk2-ansi/wx/_core.py:13155: UserWarning: wxPython/wxWidgets release number mismatch
warnings.warn("wxPython/wxWidgets release number mismatch")
***** You can safely ignore the above error.
Could not connect to dbus session bus. dbus will be unavailable.

Any help is appreciated, as i don't want to bloat my install by using KDE-apps!!!
thanks a lot

But won't work at all... 
Whent I start exaile, it ends with
/usr/lib/python2.4/site-packages/wx-2.6-gtk2-ansi/wx/_core.py:13155: UserWarning: wxPython/wxWidgets release number mismatch
warnings.warn("wxPython/wxWidgets release number mismatch")

import pygst
ImportError: No module named pygst
Don't know what to do!
I tried to emerge gst-plugins gconf, python-gst wxpython... nothing got it work yet...
Anyway, hope this program will be once in portage... amarok in gtk should rock!!!

Hi!
Exaile is in portage? Well searching exaile via the web page of portage doesn't give any anser... 
I got it work with the help of this link: http://www.exaile.org/forum/thread/34
Thank's anyway!
PS: Yes, happy to use amarok in gtk too!

Heres a slightly updated ebuild for 0.2.3 (just had to change the workdir slightly)
If anyones running gnome 2.16 please let me know as im trying to trace down the cause of a segfault when trying to add new folders to the library and i want to rule out the new gtk/pygtk libs as causes.
