Related Tool for Rhythmbox

News-Letter — 2012-05-16T12:14:56

Hello All,

I would like to introduce my recent, ready to use project, - “Inmedafit” 
application (http://shvachko.net/my3w/vsh_wares_eng.html#Inmedafit). 
This application can be Related Tool for Rhythmbox.

Inmedafit application is the software client that allows users to obtain 
the detailed information about the network and local media resources, 
process the Rhythmbox database, create and manipulate by playlists.

Inmedafit is the GUI-based application software that implements the 
following functions:
- Reading, parsing and displaying the playlists which were stored in the 
standard pls-format, m3u-format and the Rhythmbox database.
- The manual entering and placing of the individual source items (Media 
Resource Locators, MRLs) to the working list.
- Detecting, processing and showing the actual detailed information 
(album, genre, title etc) about the stated network and local media 
resources (Internet radio, audio files etc).
- Editing the content of the working list and its individual data cells

Looking for the right attributes to write a plugin

Van Dingenen — 2012-05-15T18:54:12

Dear Rhythmbox developers

I want to write my own plugin to log extra data of my listening behavior 
but I'm having trouble to find the right attributes as I call them.
I can find a lot of examples but they don't seem to work on the new 
version of Rhythmbox (2.96).

Can someone tell me how to find basic attributes or functions that give 
me i.e. the title and artist of a specific song entry.
I can navigate through the rhythmbox 'tree' but it is huge and I can't 
find useful functions or I don't know what arguments they need.

Another question. If I type "dir()" in the Python Console, I get ['RB', 
'__builtins__', '__history__', 'shell'].
How can I address the attributes under 'RB' and 'shell' in my plugin?
Where do I find signals in this 'tree' of Rhythmbox like the signal that 
a song has changed whereto I can connect?

To support my questions, I have pasted my draft plugin below.
It may look messy. It is a collection of several snippets.
I'm not yet experienced with programming in Python but I'm working o

Rhythmbox and Squeezebox/Logitech Media Server(and Chumby)

Galadriel — 2012-05-08T19:41:07

Greetings!  I have a chumby, which supports streaming from 
squeezebox/Logitech Media Server.  I have the squeezebox server working 
on my desktop and the chumby working as a receiver for it.  I'm using 
the Logitech interface (http://localhost:9000 on any browser on the 
desktop).

Is there any way to control squeezebox through Rhythmbox, so that it 
will play either my music files or my last.fm stream, and send it out to 
my chumby?  It looks like it might be possible, but nothing I try seems 
to be working.

I have tried coherence, which just seems to be able to receive the 
stream that a squeezebox server is sending.  (Am I doing something wrong?)

I have tried https://github.com/jldupont/rb_squeezebox , but it doesn't 
seem to do anything at all.

I know of the existence of GStreamer but I don't know where to get started.

If this can be done, can someone give me a more solid place to start, or 
even walk me through it?  Thank you so much.

Sort library with Album Artist (TPE2) instead ofArtist (TPE1)

Amr Ibrahim — 2012-05-03T11:52:03

It is better to sort the music library with the field Album Artist (TPE2 
in ID3v2 for MP3s) instead of Artist (TPE1) because a complication album 
could have one album artist and many contributing artists. A similar 
approach can be applied for other tags other than ID3 (e.g. APE tag & 
Vorbis comment).

It sounds like you're experiencing at least one bug in rhythmbox.
Please open a bug report at

how you're reproducing this problem. If you could run 'rhythmbox -D
metadata' in a terminal and trigger the problem, the resulting output

This was an unintentional side effect - it tries to preserve the
permissions and ownership of the original file, but was keeping the
mtime too. I've fixed this so mtime is appropriately updated now.

possible audio file corruption with Rhythmbox

Wolfgang Jeltsch — 2012-05-01T17:18:52

Hello,

Rhythmbox seems to cause data corruption in Ogg Vorbis files under
certain circumstances. I downloaded a video from YouTube using
youtube-dl, which gave me a *.webm file. I then extracted the audio
track using FFmpeg as follows:

    ffmpeg -i $NAME.webm -vn -acodec copy $NAME.ogg

That is, I told FFmpeg to just copy the Vorbis data, not re-encode the
audio. The resulting *.ogg file could be played without problems.

I moved the *.ogg file to my music folder. I started Rhythmbox and
changed the metadata of the file. When exiting Rhythmbox,
rhythmbox-metadata crashed with a SIGSEGV. When listening to the *.ogg
audio file afterwards, I recognized short gaps at certain positions,
each maybe about 0.1 seconds long. These gaps hadn’t shown up before.
They also couldn’t be heard when playing the file with ogg123.

So I suppose that Rhythmbox had corrupted the actual audio data when
trying to change the metadata. I cannot tell whether the *.ogg file
produced by FFmpeg wasn’t already corrupted in some

Re: building and running rhythmbox for the first time

Ronan Jouchet — 2012-05-01T04:14:16

Harshath JR,

I faced the same problem today and solved it thanks to help from mosh on
IRC. These tips might help you:

1. Suppose you installed RB in /somewhere/rb/ (via autogen.sh
--prefix=/somewhere/rb/). Then prepend your $XDG_DATA_DIRS with
/somewhere/rb/share/, and re-run RB.
1.1. To double-check RB tries to read the files you expect it to access,
use strace: strace -f -eopen ./bin/rhythmbox 2>&1 | grep schema

2. The --enable-uninstalled-build autogen switch might help, too. It
makes RB look in the source tree for the files it needs to run.

Hope that helps! Props go to mosh for the guidance.

Rhythmbox 0.12 on Debian squeeze: no sync button

Óscar Francisco Guajardo Garza — 2012-04-29T08:12:55

Hi there.

First and foremost, thank you for developing Rhythmbox. It's been working great.

I just was wondering what happened to the sync button. I was trying to
syinc my ipod today but the button wasn't there. I sync'd before (not
a month ago) and it was there. As far as I remember there hasn't been
any updates/upgrades concerning rhythmbox on my Debian 6. Can you tell
me what's going on? I'd really like to use rhythmbox as my sync tool,
other programs just don't do it for me. Thanks in advance. Cheers!

Re: Question about updating Rhythmbox

Ronan Jouchet — 2012-04-25T20:43:10

I confirm: the webupd8 ppa worked fine on my Oneiric installation. Be
careful though, you could also totally bork your machine, as happened
to me once with the same webupd8 PPA (with GIMP, I think).

The GNOME3 PPA also packages 2.96:

First of all, PPAs are not official by their nature. :)

Second, this would be a lot of work, depending on the version of Ubuntu.

Rhythmbox depends on a lot of GNOME libraries and other system libs.
If you're on Ubuntu 11.04 or newer (IIRC), you're using the GNOME 2
libraries. Recent versions of Rhythmbox use the GNOME 3 libraries. You
can see the problem: it can be challenging to mix GNOME 2 and GNOME 3
on the same system, particularly if the right versions of the GNOME 3
libraries are not even offered on the system.

That said, I think someone out there -- the "webupd8 team" -- might
have already done this. As you can see, Rhythmbox has a ton of
dependencies that need to be installed along with it in order to
ensure a smooth upgrade experience. This may impact other parts of
your system in unknown ways.

Take a look here: https://launchpad.net/~webupd8team/+archive/rhythmbox

That is the *only* Rhythmbox PPA out there -

building and running rhythmbox for the first time

Harshath JR — 2012-04-24T16:46:10

Hi,

I'm a long time rhythmbox user and a new contributor the this project. I
just checked out the project from git and compiled it today, and am trying
to run the outcome.
I built it by running ./autogen.sh and then "make".

After some hunting, I found the rhythmbox binary in ./shell.

But running that binary gives me this result:

(process:19002): Rhythmbox-WARNING **: Could not load desktop file
'/usr/local/share/applications/rhythmbox.desktop': No such file or directory

(lt-rhythmbox:19002): Rhythmbox-WARNING **: couldn't load fallback icon
rhythmbox-missing-artwork: Icon 'rhythmbox-missing-artwork' not present in
theme

GLib-GIO-ERROR **: Settings schema 'org.gnome.rhythmbox' does not contain a
key named 'show-album-art'
Trace/breakpoint trap

How do I get the binary running? Am I missing any steps?

Grammatical mistake dutch version

Tamara Kiewiet — 2012-04-11T20:37:45

Dear reader,

The Dutch version of Rythmbox contains a grammatical mistake. If the mouse
stands on the button which allows you to play over the list after listening
to all the songs, you see the following sentence: 'Als alle nummers
beluisterd zijn, overnieuw beginnen'. The word overnieuw is wrong, it
should be opnieuw (source: http://taaladvies.net/taal/advies/vraag/639/). I
hope you can have a look at it.

Regarding,

Tamara Kiewiet
