Euphoria v0.8.0 Written by Tilman Sauerbeck and various contributors. See AUTHORS for details/the complete list. DEPENDENCIES ------------ Euphoria requires the following: Evas Ecore Edje Esmart XMMS2 Ruby-EFL Rake ABOUT ------- Euphoria is an audio player which is based on Ecore, Evas and Edje. It acts as a frontend to XMMS2. INSTALLATION OF EUPHORIA & XMMS2 -------------------------------- To use build Euphoria you will need to first install XMMS2. See http://wiki.xmms2.xmms.se for instructions. Now install Euphoria by running "rake install". At this point you're ready to rock. Start Euphoria but make sure the XMMS2 Daemon is running. RUNNING EUPHORIA ---------------- For the time being (as of this writting) you need to manage your play list using the CLI client. An example session would be: 1) Open an Eterm and start the daemon so you can see debugging information: "xmms2d" 2) Open an Eterm to control XMMS2, use the following commands: $ xmms2 add /path/to/some/files $ xmms2 add http://205.188.234.65:8022 $ xmms2 list (now the playlist has stuff in it) 3) Start Euphoria with no options. REPORTING BUGS --------------- You can report bugs here: http://xcomputerman.com/bugs/ FAQ ------- Q: Will you support WinAmp skins? A: -> Nope.... go use XMMS(1) if you want traditional skins. Refer to the first question. But I will admit that I have considered the possiblity of automating the conversion of WinAmpv3 skins (.wal's) to Edje. It doesn't look hard, and Edje can do everything and more that WinAmp can do with it's interface, but in a far more general way. The problem is really just parsing all that XML (the WA skin config files are now XML). With PERL there could probly be an easy conversion, but if there is one thing I hate parsing it's XML. It would instantly make this audio player the player to use though!
