New music player - Exaile!

[Depressed Man]

Hmm I can't get some plugins to install (Exaile will install them but they don't show up, and launching exaile from the terminal shows a couple errors).

Could you post the errors please? It's possible you just need some dependencies or a newer version of exaile.

[Depressed Man]

Sure.

Yep, you need a newer version of Exaile. See the exaile downloads page for instructions.

The repo has moved, remove the current deb lines from your sources.list and follow the new ones on the exaile downloads page.

Wow, do I feel stupid.

This is believed to be a gstreamer issue, it actually drops volume across all ranges, not sure why it only does bass for you. This might be fixed in newer releases of gstreamer, but I don't know. Apps that do not use the EQ shouldn't be affected.

reaco*, as far as I know the volume was affected overall, but I also had to compensate a little more on the bass.

Even so, the first equalizer implementation was much worse than it is right now. I suppose it was done at Gstreamer level, but still, good work going with Exaile!

yeah this is not the newest GST, its a rather old backport. I'm likely going to upgrade to gutsy soon so I'll be able to see if the newer GST in gutsy is affected the same way.

Just wanted to say that I've been using Exaile for a week now, and love it. It loads a lot faster than Amarok in GTK, and it even picked up the media keys without my having to do anything.

One problem, though: it seems to think it's fetched all of the album art, but doesn't display any. Not a big deal, but just thought I'd pass that along.
