Amarok Full Screen

Yeah, I already gave you a feedback here:

http://amarok.kde.org/forum/index.php/topic,13637.0.html

I only have a few suggestions:

1) Show the year as well

I love to see the year in my id3tag when I play a song.

2) "Cover-Only" option

Sometimes I let my Amarok run and don't have to control it for hours - then it would be nice to only see the cover plus song-info, but not the buttons.

3) Auto-resize font for long Albumnames

I just played a track from Proppellerhead's Decksandrumsandrockandroll album, your script couldn't handle it. Well, the name was cut off. Albums with such a name are rather rare, so that's no big issue, but maybe you could do sth about it? Making the font smaller could be a solution...

(this is not very important)

4) Mache the progress bar clickable

So we could rewind/forward as well! :)

(again, not really important, just an idea)

Love your script, keep it up!! :)

Sorry, a question not related to your script - why can't I see all comments for this app? I tried everything, set the expand level to all and also changed the dropdown menu for the time-periods. It says 10 comments, but I can only see mine, even when I'm logged out. So, how can I see all 10 (now 11) comments? Weird...

this is really wierd. I have the same problem... but this is kde-apps.org related problem.
BTW: I speak fluent german, so don't worry about "mache" and "make" ;-)

Another nice feature would be the start of amarok if it isn't already started...

Great Idea, I would also recommend a kde lirc module addon so that it can be controlled via the remote. Also, I suppose the details being displayed on the screen could be handled by some xml/html file. That would make it possible to customize it easily and also would open up the possibility of having themes, which is always welcome thing.

I tried to run qmake just to be sure and nothing happens. Then I ran make assuming it was ready to go but I get these errors

g++ -c -pipe -march=i586 -mtune=i686 -fmessage-length=0 -D_FORTIFY_SOURCE=2 -O2 -fno-strict-aliasing -Wall -W -march=i586 -mtune=i686 -fmessage-length=0 -D_FORTIFY_SOURCE=2 -O2 -fno-strict-aliasing -DQT_NO_DEBUG -DQT_SHARED -DQT_THREAD_SUPPORT -I/usr/lib/qt3/mkspecs/default -I. -I/usr/include/kde -I/usr/include -I/usr/lib/qt3/include -o main.o main.cpp

I have dcopclient.h installed in the /opt/kde3/include/

What am I missing?

I am running opensuse 10.2 and KDE 3.5.6

You have to open amarokFS.pro and change the path /usr/include/kde to /opt/kde3/include. This should solve the problem.

In the makefile, add "-I/opt/kde3/include" to your INCPATH.

You may have to add the directory to kdecore (use locate) to your LIBS var in the makefile too.

Thanks for the fix. I do in fact need to add my kdecore dir to the makefile. However, I tried to run locate for the first time and it said it was not a valid bash command. I have not setup any cron jobs so its not a big help anyway. Can someone tell me where the directory for kdecore is located on opensuse 10.2? Google didn't really help.

Hi,
kdecore is under /opt/kde3/lib. For locate you need to have findutils-locate installed.

Hi again,
you need to correct paths for qt3 to /usr/lib/qt3 and for KDE to /opt/kde3 in the Makefile. You should also change qmake to /usr/lib/qt3/bin/qmake. Add -L/opt/kde3/lib to -lkdecore. Check even amarokFS.pro for correct paths and -L/opt/kde3/lib. Now it should compile.

Greetings

Thanks so much for your help. Total Linux noob here who doesn't do that well when it comes to compiling. I can now compile just fine, however, there are no buttons or album art. Just text (which is correct) and a working progress bar. Any suggestions. Again, I appreciate your help.

moc_cb.cpp:12:2: error: #error "The header file 'cb.h' doesn't include ."

This is the first error. I use Opensuse 10.2.

Can anyone put for download the Makefile or the executable file, rpm or other?

Thanks, Very good app.
