Would have thought this issue would also be present in 1.5.2 Anyway, will be fixed for 2.0.1 (already is in 2.0 branch and master)
Also, please use the github issue tracker for bug reports. |

I guess a connection attempt could be made, etc. to make things simpler. I'll accept patches to do this...
Does not affect my use case - where MPD is running on a Pi2
I agree, that MPD is not really meant for local file playback (or at least, that's not its strength). But, it is useful to be able to playback some local files. Again, seeing as my MPD is on another machine, I do use the in-built http server for this use-case (and for playing AudioCDs)
Yes, the HTTP server is in-process, and Cantata should remove any localy served files from the playqueue when it closes. I guess a separate cantata-http helper could be written (like cantata-dynamic) to serve the files... |

Cantata gets its metadata from MPD - so the issue will probably be there. |

Well Cantata *can* playback local non-MPD files - it has a minimal embedded HTTP server which it uses to serve files to MPD. (I use this to play AudioCDs from my laptop out of MPD running on my Pi 2)
And as for 0 config - as long as MPD is using its defaults, then this too can work. Or at the least, provide a system-wide default Cantata config. |

Mar 25 2015 on content Cantata |
Cantata itself does not play any files - files are played by MPD. Any playback issues are issues with MPD, not Cantata.
MPD supplies Cantata with a list of files, and Cantata asks MPD to play certain files - that's basically it. It's MPD that is playing the files.
I've never used DSF, etc. - but do these have 1 file per track? How does one song have multiple sample rates?
I guess, if there is more than 1 file per track (e.g. two files, with different samples rates in each) then Cantata could be adding the wrong file to the playqueue. |

Yeah, I agree this is not optimal. Will be fixed for 1.4.2.
Also, please use the googlecode page to report bugs. |

Aug 25 2014 on content Cantata |
You have used another tool to create ReplayGain tags, and MPD itself is in charge of reading these and playing back the file. So, how is this a Cantata issue? All Cantata does is control which ReplayGain mode (none, auto, track, album) that MPD shoud use. I'd check your version of MPD, and your MPD settings.
As for Cantata, it can read and update the ReplayGain tags. The code used to calculate this is preformed by libebur128. If you start the Cantata ReplayGain dialog with your pre-tagged files, does it show the existing ReplayGain settings? |

What tag format do they use? ID3? Is it supported by TagLib? |

...for 1.5.0, the preferences dialog in Qt-only builds can now be shrunk less than 600px high. This is for Qt only though, not KDE - I /think/ the KDE widget is causing the dialog to be larger... |
| | | Re: Window size
Aug 10 2014 on content Cantata |
I guess you are referring to the preferences dialog. Yeah, this is a bit bigger than that - sorry. Had a quick play to allow resizing to a smaller size, and it didn't work out (it allowed the pages to shrink too small). I don't have a netbook with Linux, so the size is not an issue for me.
Still, Cantata is open source - so if it bothers you that much, I'll gladly accept a patch. |
