New music player - Exaile!

[komodojay]

I love this player! Anyone figured out a way to make exaile the default player for your multimedia key instead of Rythmbox? I've tried to do the GConf-editor but I can find the keyboard shortcuts anywhere like others have suggested elsewhere to try to change the default player.

Has anyone come across this bug while playing MP3s?

If so pls confirm it.

I just removed Rhythmbox and set Exaile as the multimedia app in "Preferred Applications". Everything including global gnome shortcuts work now.

i tried searching, but i can't seem to see anyone mentioning how everytime you load exaile it resets the sound to 70%
this has happened on every machine (x86 or x64) from edgy to gutsy.
i've heard some talk of it being alsa's fault, but no other app does it.
can i get rid of this?

Move the volume slider above your playlist to 100%. It'll stop setting the volume, then you can use alsa to control the volume.

i tried that, but then i just get the same message with 100%
"Changing volume: 100%"

this is ridiculous

is there any way to make exaile read east european characters in the id3 tags? i wouldn't really care about it if i wasn't using audioscrobbler...

and i'm sorry if it was already mentioned, you wouldn't want me to read more than 100 pages now would you

exaile still has a lot of trouble with unicode characters. Try upgrading to the newest version (or even the devel version). If that doesn't fix it, it's probably not trivial to fix.

I have 2 soundcards. The onboard hda-intel I want to use it for movies, browser sounds, headphones, so I gave it index=0 in alsa-base.
The second one, Audigy SE, is connected to my amplifier, I use it only for music. In amarok it was easy to configure the sound output. I can't find something similar in Exaile.

Has anybody found a way to change the sound output? I did some research, but found nothing.

Exaile always uses the default playback device, this is currently not configurable.
