Re: Music app.

  Thread Previous • Date Previous • • Thread Next 
Hi,
Unless my mail don't get through, I've said, twice, that I do want to contribute this project to become the default music application for Ubuntu Touch. 

So, yes. Default music application. Sorry if I've been inarticulate.

Vänlig hälsning / Yours sincerely,

Daniel,

One thing I haven't seen you mention yet is if you want to do a
separate community music app, or if you want to participate in the
default music app that will ship with Ubuntu Touch?

Hi Diego,

I think that's a great idea! When is a good time for you
to have a meeting? Set a time and those who can attend
will?



Maybe the meeting could be at 3pm UTC time this Tuesday
(12th March), we can meet at irc #ubuntu-touch to share the
hangout link and whoever is there and is interested can
join.



Cheers, Daniel

Hi all,

First, I do think we should move the discussion away
from here, so I'm off to the teams mail list from now
on. I just sent out a mail, which I pasted below.

Michael, I agree with you that we should probably be
talking now first hand and writing it down. See the
mail below.

Zisu, agreed. Its better if we try to work together
instead of having all these different projects. At
least in the beginning. Although I might say that I
want a separated music and video player. But remote
things sounds nice. Using mod this would be easier.

And about Umedia, I'm thinking about reusing, almost
porting, the whole thing for this project. But this is
a discussion for the team.



Hi, I'm the one who did UMedia, so let me know and maybe
i can speed up things if we found another design that
fits better for the phone or something, because i already
know the qml and c++ code of that project, maybe we can
arrange a kind-of-meeting via IRC or hangout or something
to talk about this and move forward.


Mail: Hi everyone and welcome,

I think we should start of my deciding what we want
this application to be. So I propose that everyone,
who'd like, write down what features they want, and
then we discuss these features and if we all agree with
therm, create a blueprint and a goal.

Features for the first release is primary focus, but
features for later versions are welcome too, of
course.

What I want the player to do: * play music tracks of a
diverse container from local device. * pause track, and
use previous and next track. * being able to shuffle *
Scrabble tracks * use slider to move quickly in the
track * download and show album art automatically. *
use playlists,create and edit them. * sort by artist,
album and track * sound menu for global management.

These are the features I could imagine for later on : *
support for upnp * for ampache * groveshark/spotify. *
YouTube support * lyrics

Please share your ideas and create a base of our
development.

Cheers, Daniel

Guys,

I'm really new to QML and am still figuring out a lot
of stuff, so my code is not beautiful..

May I say hold your horses until we find a suitable
architecture for both the backend and the frontend?
Mybalsamiq should probably do it for both, and we can
more easily follow discussions for each over there.

For the backend side of things, I quite like mpd side
of things rather than plugging in to the low-level
gstreamer. We should sketch out a structure for it.

For the front-end side of things, I think we should
probably wait for Canonical to publish their
application and see where we can take it from there,
but we can definetely brainstrom until then.

I see some nice ideas regarding remote control. We
should probably think about integrating controlling
something with the phone and maybe having the phone
plugged into the tv and allowing it to be controller
(maybe a bluetooth keyboard).

Also, we need to sort out the level of integration
between the Music Player and the Video player. I would
quite like to see a very integrated manner. Maybe even
have them as one: Player (like VLC).

Akash, what do you mean by global control? I'm thinking
the same kind of global media buttons as in the sound
indicator, is that what you mean?

Someone asked a really interesting question regarding
global control. The way Ubuntu currently doess it is
through DBus, displaying play/pause and next track in
the Sound menu. However, it seems like they have become
more like settings controls in Ubuntu Phone and I am
not entirely sure how they will look in 14.04. Maybe
someone in Canonical can enlighten us on this issue? My
thought on this is, use the same pattern, as it goes
nicely with the other menus, like Messeging and the
like.

I'm not exactly sure what's the process for setting up

I think there are some interesting ideas in this thread
alread and we should start writing them down somewhere

Also this thread is growing quite big and I agree that
it would make sense to move to a separate mailing

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.


Yes, i agree the UI is not the best, i was

thinking to redo that part

also, i wasn't happy about the UI/UX


Would you like to help out?


Of course, where is the team to join?

Hey Jouni,

Would be great to see those. I will most

PlayMee too and could use some great design.
Most likely

I can reuse most of it

don't you want to design the UI

intended to do a Music App to

run on the desktop and the phone:

You can see some videos of the app working

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.
