Re: Music app.

 

Hi Diego,

You are very much welcome to join if you like.

I can see that you got pretty far(!) with your UMedia. It looks good. The thing that I'm most concerned about is just moving along Ubuntu's UI guidelines. But the rest looks pretty much like the features and all, that I'd like.

Would you like to help out?

Vänlig hälsning / Yours sincerely,

Hey Michael,
Are you working on a Xbmc remote for Ubuntu Touch? That would be great. Do you have a API to control XBMC? If so could you pass me a copy? Thanks.

    Hey Jouni,

    Would be great to see those. I will most likely port over PlayMee
    too and
    could use some great design. Most likely I can reuse most of it
    for Xbmcremote
    too.

    Cheers,
    Michael

Hi, some time ago i started a project intended to do a Music App to run on the desktop and the phone:
https://github.com/saruneko/UMedia

You can see some videos of the app working here:
http://www.saruneko.org/umedia

I don't know if you were considering something like that, i haven't add some code to that lately because i was busy with other stuff, but let me know if that could be of any use.

Regards!
