New music player - Exaile!

[raintheory]

Enjoying this so far. version 0.2.4

I second the Last.fm radio functionality! That would be great!

I also noticed the about window bug, but hardly an issue since it closes fine with the x.

Great job! I'm looking forward to watching the progress of this!

Exaile 0.2.5b for Dapper(Amd64)

Download package from here. Of course then unpack the archive using file-roller or similiar.

then in a terminal

sudo dpkg -i exaile_0.2.5b_amd64.deb

Giving it a try now- Just switched back to Gnome, and Amarok is being a bit sketchy for me

Seems good so far

Will 0.2.5b be available for Dapper?

hmm, the opening of m3u files doesn't work. It only loads the first track into the playlist. I've reported a bug on the exaile forums.

Howto: Building exaile from source.
Update: All Dependencies should be fixed now.
First
ALT+F2 gnome-terminal, click run then

wget http://exaile.org/files/exaile_0.2.6.tar.gz

Second

tar xvfz exaile_0.2.6.tar.gz

Third

sudo apt-get install build-essential dpkg-dev debhelper libgstreamer0.10-0 gstreamer0.10-plugins-base gstreamer0.10-plugins-good gstreamer0.10-plugins-ugly python-gst0.10 gstreamer0.10-esd gstreamer0.10-alsa python2.4 python2.4-dev python2.4-gtk2 python-gtk2-dev python-glade2 python2.4-dbus python-pyvorbis python-mutagen python-pysqlite2 python-elementtree python2.4-gnome2-extras python-cddb streamripper

Forth

cd exaile*

Fifth

make

Sixth

sudo dpkg-buildpackage

wait for it to build

Seventh

cd ..

Eighth

sudo dpkg -i exaile*.deb

If it does not work when you go to run it. Do this but I didn't seperate everything. Just follow line by line.

wget http://www.sacredchao.net/~piman/software/mutagen-1.8.tar.gz
tar xvfz mutagen-1.8.tar.gz
cd mutagen*
./setup.py build
sudo "./setup.py install"

Has anyone considered in making an XChat plugin for Exaile, so that you can control Exaile from XChat and also announce what's playing on the current IRC channel?

[foxy123]

the package for edgy will probably work

First
ALT+F2 type gnome-terminal and click run

Second

wget http://exaile.org/files/exaile_0.2.5b_i386.deb

Third

sudo dpkg -i http://exaile.org/files/exaile_0.2.5b_i386.deb

if the above does not work do this with the gnome-terminal open

First

wget http://exaile.org/files/exaile_0.2.5b.tar.gz

Second

sudo apt-get install build-essential python python-dev python-gtk2 python-gtk2-dev python-gpod python2.4-dbus gstreamer0.10-plugins-good gstreamer0.10-plugins-ugly dpkg-dev

Third

cd exaile*

Forth

make

Fifth

sudo dpkg-buildpackage

wait for it to build

Sixth

cd ..

Seventh

sudo dpkg -i exaile*.deb

That was a mouthful

Hey, thanks a lot. Edgy package did not work, but making a deb with dpkg-buildpackage was easy. You missed one step though.

tar xvfz exaile_0.2.5b.tar.gz

It may be a good idea to add this small how-to to the first page or did a separate post on howtos forum.

[.t.]

why don't you just set up a repo? its really easy; reprepro isn't exactly hard.

i'd do it, but my upstream's really slow (61KiB/s)
