General discussion

I think it would be cool to have something like --info in an endless loop, producing output as things change. Calling 'mocp --info' every second is inaccurate and needs too much system resources.

How much effort would it take to implement something like xprop's -spy option, which prints out things that have changed? Just printing the --info screen would also be great.

Efficient scripting would be easy in any language.

My music library is organise with symbolic links which points to mp3 files, is there anyway that moc could recognize a link and play the corresponding file?

Thank you

Hello. Is it correct to use patch from here http://moc.daper.net/node/397 to add equalizer in MOC 2.5.0-alpha3 or I need to find something special? I've tried moc-equalizer_r2099.patch, but it crashed during compilation with error:

interface.c: In function 'menu_key':

Please explain what I'am doing wrong? Is it problem of Debian buildpackage tool or problem with patch?
Thanks for your answers.

Probably the one with the FormatString is a bug but it could be a missing feature, anyway I wanted to make a nested check on a property, something like: "%(A: \(%A%(a: - %a:)\):)" but moc just crashes and obviously ruins the term. So well, just asking if I'm failing somewhere and if I'm not noticing you that there's this bug :)

The Theme bug is pretty weird, I wanted to change the color of the [time|type] thingy but in the default themes there wasn't anything that did it, so I checked the sources and found:


{ "selected_info", CLR_MENU_ITEM_INFO_SELECTED },
{ "marked_info", CLR_MENU_ITEM_INFO_MARKED },
{ "marked_selected_info", CLR_MENU_ITEM_INFO_MARKED_SELECTED },


I tryed to use them but:

{ "empty_mixer_bar", CLR_MIXER_BAR_EMPTY },
{ "filled_mixer_bar", CLR_MIXER_BAR_FILL },
{ "empty_time_bar", CLR_TIME_BAR_EMPTY },
{ "filled_time_bar", CLR_TIME_BAR_FILL },


Disappeared (as in the elements in the interface went trasparent (or completely black)), am I still failing somewhere or is it a bug?

Thank you, bye.

I found about MOC on Full Circle Magazine and immediately installed it to try out. Have been loving it since and takes less than 10% memory of rythmbox. Cool! There is just one feature that I am missing and that is global hotkeys. I am used to moving to next song in the playlist (while say browsing on Firefox) using global keyboard shortcuts in other music players. Is this feature available in MOC. Thanks.

I am running MOC in a screen session and want to disable moc changing the title of the screen window to the current song. Is this something I can turn off in the moc or screen config file?

I've already tried setting "SetXtermTitle = no" and that doesn't work.

Good day!
What about adding a new feature in mocp: browsing folders on ftp-servers and adding ones(folders and it's items) into playlist by "a"/"A"? :)

Thank you. Scit.

hello!

i've just installed 2.5.0-alpha3 and got this message
i found older topic with same problem, but there wasn't any practical solution, but "reinstall"
so i got back to ./configure stage and found:


MOC will be compiled with:
Decoder plugins:
OSS: yes
ALSA: no
JACK: no
DEBUG: yes
RCC:
Network streams: no
Resampling: no


no decoder plugins at all?
proper directory and content exists
somehow it can't see plugins directory?
how to fix it?
