Excellent. After installing mp3info and mpg321 emms is providing joy.
Does emms cache the file name to track info associations? With
thousands and thousands of tracks I'd rather that emms not recompute all
this data each time I startup my emms Emacs instance. Also, how can I
best discern the functions (and external programs) that emms wants/needs
to support flac format. Maybe I should read the info page and come back
... good idea.

Thanks,

The variable `emms-info-functions' defines which functions run to get
the track info. Emms calls command line tools to get track information.
You can check to see what your `emms-info-functions' contains and if you
have mp3info installed on your system.

You can also opt for using `emms-info-libtag' as your sole provider of
track info. See the comments in the header of lisp/emms-info-libtag.el
for more details.

flac help

2009-12-14T12:46:18Z

I'm trying to setup emms to listen to my flac library but first I
figured I'd get things working with the mp3 library.

I configured emms as:

(require 'emms-setup)
(emms-standard)
(emms-default-players)

(setq emms-source-file-directory-tree-function
'emms-source-file-directory-tree-find
emms-source-file-default-directory "/mnt/data/audio/mp3/")

(emms-add-directory-tree "/mnt/data/audio/mp3")

where the mp3 hierarchy as some 13000 plus .mp3 files organized by
artist/album/track*.mp3

When I type M-x emms it am put into the *EMMS Playlist* buffer with all
gazillion tracks. The tracks are of the form:

/mnt/data/audio/mp3/'Til Tuesday/0J00-80's Pop Hits (disc 1)/12 - Voices
Carry.mp3
/mnt/data/audio/mp3/'Til Tuesday/6A19-Voices Carry/01 - Love In A Vacuum.mp3
/mnt/data/audio/mp3/'Til Tuesday/6A19-Voices Carry/02 - Looking Over My
Shoulder

which I take to mean that the files are not being "grokked" by emms to
the extent that the lines are not being converted to a nice format.

Is this enough information for someone to help set me straight on how to
effectively use emms?

Thanks

emms-lastfm-client.el lives!

2009-12-09T14:33:35Z

Streaming music from Last.fm, showing which track is playing and
skipping to the next track now work in a friendly manner. More
importantly the initial, one-time authentication is now documented in
the file header and relatively painless.

It should be pretty buggy since it hasn't been tested for any
significant amount time. More features, bug fixes to come.

$ git clone http://yrk.nfshost.com/repos/emms-yrk.git

The existing emms-lastfm.el and emms-last-played.el are defunct but are
useful for me to see what features to implement in
emms-lastfm-client.el.

Any objections to me installing emms-lastfm-client.el in git.sv.gnu.org
in the near future?

emms-lastfm-client.el started at last

2009-11-25T13:31:45Z

A while ago we reached an understanding with the Last.fm people about
how to access their new API while preserving the freedoms of the
GPL. Now I've finally started writing the actual code.

You can't play anything with it yet but you can get a session token
(http://www.last.fm/api/desktopauth), which is the end result of their
authentication system and the basis for any and all interactions with
their API.

For the curious, I'll do the development as emms-lastfm-client.el in a
git repo accessible with:

$ git clone http://yrk.nfshost.com/repos/emms-yrk.git

emms-cue.el: Recognize cue sheet file

2009-11-22T05:24:54Z

Hi folks!

Recently I've got some .ape and .flac files. But seems mplayer
doesn't recognize the corresponding .cue file, thus making it
impossible to jump to next/prev tracks inside the .ape/.flac
file. Hence, I've created this elisp to fix it.

I plan to commit it shortly.

streams conflict with tramp?

2009-11-02T02:56:07Z

Hi,

this is my first post on this list, so first of all I would like to say hello to everybody!

I have been using emms for a few years, but recently I've changed computer, distro and emacs version. And after that a little problem has emerged. When tried to run M-x
emms-play-url, after typing my favorite radio url, I've got a strange error:

Process *tramp/scp http* exited abnormally with code 255

All the rest of emms worked fine, so I've tried to google a little, but unsuccessfully. So I've decided to disable tramp mode and check what will happen. And it worked!

I guess tramp for some reasons captures the url. I haven't customized tramp, I'm using emms 3.0-1 and emacs 23.1.1. I'm not using tramp very often, but anyway it would be nice to
solve the problem, so I will be grateful for any help with this task.

Best,

Grzegorz Papaj

Handle missing artist info in emms-info-track-description

2009-10-18T02:33:47Z

Hi,

I'd kindly suggest to let emms-info-track-description handle the case of
missing artist, but existing title information by displaying the title
instead of falling back to emms-track-simple-description.

Rationale:

There are streams outside (e.g. [1]) that seem to put all of the track
information into the title field instead of properly distributing it
among the appropriate fields. For these streams something like

Currently playing: Cryosleep - Zero Beat Guaranteed: Steve Roach - 08 - Altus

is more informative than the current output:

Currently playing: Cryosleep - Zero Beat Guaranteed: url: http://207.200.96.225:8022/

BTW, as an inveterate Emacs user I really appreciate the EMMS way of listening
music — thanks for your work.

(System information: using Debian package emms 3.0-5)

[1] ("Bluemars Cryosleep" "http://207.200.96.225:8022/listen.pls" 1 streamlist)

Thanks for considering, Andreas

emms-lastfm causing the point to jump to the end of the buffer (?)

2009-08-10T07:25:42Z

Hi,

I have been seeing a strange bug lately where, in some buffer that is
not currently being used, the point will jump to the end of the buffer.
I think that this is related to emms-lastfm, since it only happens when
a song changes. Has anyone else noticed this?

Cheers,
Chris

I've checked in the fix. It would be also nice to have that use of
find-file-noselect in emms-playlist-mode changed to use the new
emms-insert-file-contents function, but it's not that high priority.

That also does major mode detection (and a whole host of other revert

Can EMMS read aac / m4a tags?

2009-05-15T04:24:13Z

Hello all,

I've got a fair-sized music library that's been ripped in iTunes in AAC
format. EMMS can play the tracks fine but apparently can't read the tags
(for the few mp3 track that I have it reads the tags fine).

I realise that the AAC tag format is proprietary but there seems to be
some other tools that can read and write it, easytag-aac being one.

Is there a way to allow EMMS to be able to read these tags?

Thanks,

David.

Yes, now I've added it to emms-player-started-hook which seems to fit
most of my use cases. Before I tried adding a new hook that is called
whenever the playlist is modified, but I gave up because then synching
was done much to often and made emacs hang.

After setting the language env to utf-8, the problem has gone away.

Chinese file names

2009-05-04T18:22:13Z

Hi there,

I am using mpg123 player in emms and it plays songs with English file
names nicely. However, for Chinese files I can get following error:

,----
| High Performance MPEG 1.0/2.0/2.5 Audio Player for Layers 1, 2 and 3
| version 1.7.2; written and copyright by Michael Hipp and others
| free software (LGPL/GPL) without any warranty but with best wishes
|
| [readers.c:970] error: Cannot open file /Users/Shared/iTunes Music/ & /Unknown Album/ .mp3: No such file or directory

|
| Process emms-player-simple-process finished
`----

as you can see all Chinese characters have been replaced with spaces and
thus mpg123 complains 'No such file or directory'.

I get the above error by re-defining:

(defun emms-player-simple-start (filename player cmdname params)
"Starts a process playing FILENAME using the specified CMDNAME with
the specified PARAMS.
PLAYER is the name of the current player."
(let ((process (apply 'start-process
emms-player-simple-process-name
"*debug*"
cmdname
;; splice in params here
(append params (list filename)))))
;; add a sentinel for signaling termination
(set-process-sentinel process 'emms-player-simple-sentinel))
(emms-player-started player))

The coding system of the above `process' is (undecided-unix . iso-latin-1-unix).

BTW, mpg123 can play those Chinese songs in terminal.

Any idea how to fix this?

Yeah, it's a somewhat tricky problem.

I come across something similar when adding tracks to the end of the
current EMMS buffer while playing it. The tracks only get sent to MPD
after it reaches the last track in the original MPD playlist. Ideally
it would send commands to just add those tracks, without disturbing the
currently-playing track. Likewise for cuts and pastes that don't
involve the current track.

But in the case of shuffle, it seems best to just stop mpd and resync
the playlist using the function you mentioned, perhaps by means of some
hook.

MPD and shuffling playlists

2009-05-03T01:31:23Z

Hi all,

I've recently switched to mpd / emms-player-mpd, mostly because it's
much faster while reading tags. (I don't carry my whole music
collection on my laptop, but frequently copy big parts of it from and to
an external HDD.)

While I'm quite satisfied with mpd, I think I've spotted a little bug.
I added several albums to the playlist and shuffled the tracks using
`emms-shuffle'. After that, the playlist was shuffled, but mpd played
the tracks in the original order and thus emms always showed the wrong
track infos (and submitted wrong informations to last.fm, etc.).

When I noticed it I executed `emms-player-mpd-connect' and the original
order was restored in the emms playlist.

What do I have to do to sync the emms playlist with the mpd playlist
after modifications? It looks like adding
`emms-player-mpd-sync-from-emms' to some hook...

Bye,
Tassilo

Yes, they are different. That's why GNU find is mentioned in the docs
of emms-source-file-directory-tree-function:

,----[ C-h v emms-source-file-directory-tree-function RET ]
| emms-source-file-directory-tree-function is a variable defined in `emms-source-file.el'.
| Its value is
| emms-source-file-directory-tree-internal
|
| Documentation:
| *A function to call that searches in a given directory all files
| that match a given regex. DIR and REGEX are the only arguments passed
| to this function.
| You have two build-in options:
| `emms-source-file-directory-tree-internal' will work always, but might
| be slow.
| `emms-source-file-directory-tree-find' will work only if you have GNU
| find, but it's faster.
|
| You can customize this variable.
|
| [back]
`----

You may try with emms-source-file-directory-tree-internal.

But it this is the cause, you should also not be able to play
non-chinese songs..

Exactly. No error message was produced leaving me clueless.

I wonder if this is related to another quirk. Basically when I do the
following:

(setq emms-source-file-directory-tree-function
'emms-source-file-directory-tree-find)))

emms fails to play any track. I traced down to where it execute the
'find' command, and it returned nothing. Maybe the bsd find is different
from *nix.

I have some songs that don't have any id3 info but it can't be played by
mpg123 either.

Anyway, if this is the case then it is clearly a bug for emms. The major
task of emms is playing songs not displaying id3.

Check the ID3 string of your Chinese songs.

EMMS will skip song when it can't decode the string of ID3.

You can use tool edit ID3 of song, and try again.

Hope this will help you.
