General discussion

Hello!

I came over the word "server" used in the Readme, is this a server that can be played across a network, or controlled via a network?

If not, what does it mean, and are there other good (almost as good as moc) cli players which are controlleable from the network?

Thanks,
Howbag

If I have a large directory listing that cannot be displayed fully on one "page" of the navigator [ie list of directories and tracks], and I do a search the search only searches the "visible" items [the ones that I can currently see] and items below the current view, the items higher on list are not searched.

like if i have

a
b
c
---
d
e
f
g
--
h
i

where the area between the "--" represent the display, and i search for "a" i get no results, but if i search for "g" or "h" I will.

Well, I downloaded this last night, and am thoroughly impressed.

I haven't yet come up with any suggestions on how it could be better, but if I think of anything I'll let you know.

I love the server/client thing too.

Aah, it's so much more than I was looking for, but in such a way that it's easier than I dared dream.

Sorry, rambling.

Yes, I like your program much.

Thanksies

I compiled and installed ffmpeg (svn release, 12 hours old as of writing this post), libmad, libid3tag, libogg and libvorbis. Then MOC 2.4.1 stable.

MP3s and OGGs play fine. However when I try to play a WMA file I get a "FATAL_ERROR: Can't receive value from the server." and a really ugly crash. The blue screen of MOCP stays up with the terminal prompt super-imposed over some of the bottom of the screen. The terminal behavior goes crazy too. I had to restart putty and reconnect to get it back to normal.

I see no MOCP processes running when I do a "ps ax | grep mocp".

As you've probably gathered I'm somewhat new to this Linux business. The main reason I'm messing with this is to learn more about the OS.

Thanks,

hi Damian,

thanks a lot for adding the P option to disable the paths in the playlist!

cheers

Hi, is it possible to sort the folders by date.? I would like to have the newest folder on top and the oldest in the bottom so i easily can find and play the newest stuff.

Thanks for a sweet app!

Hi!

Thanks for the good work on MOC! I'm currently using cplay but MOC is much better - except for one thing: cplay works in tiny terminal windows of only 40 characters width, moc currently does not:

david@chopin ~
$ moc

FATAL_ERROR: The terminal is too small after resizei
ng.

(Note the linebreak after 62 characters.)

What would have to be done to make MOC work on small terminal windows? I'd also like to remove vertical frame lines because my layout will always either show playlist or directory window.

Thanks for any hints where I could look.

David
