Mark Kretschmann: Phonon Bugday, join the fun!

That's actually a xinelib issue, so the answer is no.

There are ways to fix this nicely, as a hint google for "metaflac".

I love 1.4 (and am still using it - it's probably the best media player that I've ever used)

I'm not so sure (yet) about 2, I still prefer the interface in 1.4, so I will continue to use it for now, but I will keep checking back.

Thanks for all the good work!

Ramin: Missing features in Amarok 2

The "delete files" feature is THE reason why I am still using 1.4.10 .
Please provide it in the next version it can't be that hard to implement.

Yes, mood bar! Amarok would be the best player ever if you could also play movies on it!

Digit: Chromium: It really shines

i've yet to come round to being wowed by google's browser. i still prefer, konqueror, firefox, midori, seamonkey, other mozillas (iceweasle, swiftfox, etc), k-meleon, elinks, etc!

but one thing not putting me off is gtk over qt. i cannot stand qt, i utterly detest it. maybe i've just never had it shown to me in a way i like it, but i cannot get my head around why anyone actually likes it. completely baffling, boggling, perplexing... it's just beyond any scope of reason to me.

now thats not to say i love gtk. it can be a real pain in the ass should you ever want to poke your nose under the hood. but at least it doesnt look like some shoddy weekend rush job by a blind programmer with a impaired sense of aesthetics, and has been listing to "ad men" about white space more than geeks about screen space.

so anyways, maybe it's time i gave it another look, maybe i'll be impressed too.

i just wanted to have my say somewhere about the whole "why didnt google use Qt" thing. i think they made the smart move.

It should be pretty simple. You can get raw audio data out of Phonon by creating a Phonon::AudioDataOutput object, linking it to a MediaObject, and then connect something to the dataReady-signal that processes that data.

If you need more help, feel free to mail me or ask in #phonon on Freenode (I'm not there always, but I try to check in at least a couple of times a day).

No need to, we have replaced the volume icon with a small slider now

What about showing a tooltip if one clicks the volume icon? So the user is notified about an easier way to use a feature at the moment when he uses it the "hard" way.

Any idea where I can get information on porting the moodbar generator from gstreamer to phonon?

Having the possibility to jump to the search bar is great, but I am still looking forward for AND / OR support in filters, as it is already available for the collection search. Any idea whether this will come back later?

Kind regards, thanks for amarok

I think Casey was just being a geek and referring to the "stepped up to hash it out" wording of the parent, as 'fingerprinting' and 'hashing' are basically different words for he same thing!
