  1. For now on I will just use #amberol for playing music. Simple and easy

  2. Open-source music players are beautiful. The colored UI reminds me a bit of . Maybe there's a bit too much text in the UI, but the colors absolutely make up for that.

  4. By the way, the music player I'm using now is , which lets you also stream music and get album metadata from places like Jamendo and 🍭

    Here's me checking out the Fediverse's very own @bluenagoon! If you want to support them rather than just listen, check their profile for ways (and you'll get to be able to use from the other screenshots or other music players rather than just 😉️)

  5. @haeckerfelix
    about Amberol: "support for external album cover images named folder (in both PNG and JPEG image file formats) in the same directory as the songs"

    What? This means that I would have to rename or duplicate and rename all the cover files on my music folders for cover art work on Amberol?
    What is the justification for this?

  6. Decided to finally step off the "zero point something" versioning scheme treadmill for Amberol, and released 2024.1.

    Fixed up a bunch of small issues that were tied up in my attempt at getting "1.0" out of the door, before realising that version numbers are complete fiction, and there's no reason whatsoever for an application to start out of "zero point" and reach the fabled "one point oh" status.

  7. @matt I took a look at more apps that have lists as their integral part. Audio player #amberol has a playlist where its list items would benefit from calculated accessible names. gnome-podcasts looks as if it's already doing what we need the items have all the text from their children. I haven't looked how they are doing it though. Various lists within the gnome control center would also benefit from the accessible name calculation as an alternative to setting accessible manually. For example list of wifi networks is missing state information and signal strength. List of bluetooth devices is missing the state information. List of apps under notifications is missing a status information. List of keyboard shortcuts is missing assigned shortcuts, only action names are part of the accessible name. List of printers has all the details including status, location, description. Actually this might be the only list I am surprised looks about right to me. Hmm, perhaps I shal try to collect all these comments and submit it as a GTK feature request as calculating the labels might really be helpfull it seems.
  8. I wanted to try #Amberol music player, but its main dependence is all the #Rust stuff (almost 500Mb), via AUR packages and then I said.. well, I'll keep my old Rhythmbox music player

  9. If you're wondering what the menu button does…

  10. #GNOME sometimes... I have set the shortcut Super+E to open Nautilus. I just installed #Amberol from Flatpak, started playing some music and now Super+E opens Amberol instead with a long delay. I swear I like GNOME most of the time, but sometimes... :blobeyes:

  11. Empezando ya otro #viernesdeescritorio en mi querida #Fedora 38 con #GNOME 44. En esta ocasión he dejado abierto #Amberol, que es un extraordinario reproductor de música que se integra perfectamente en este entorno de escritorio.

  12. #Amberol 0.10.0 is out! After a tragic mess with a #GNOME run time update, and with lots of fixes accumulating over a development branch, I decided to spin up a release. Highlights:
    - tweaked UI, to avoid confusing the waveform control and the volume control
    - improved scaling of textures using #GTK 4.10
    - ability to restore the last playlist at startup
    - optional background playback

    Plus the usual lots and lots of small fixes, tweaks, and performance improvements.

  13. I already shared this elsewhere, Twitter I think. AMBEROL music player is super simple, super lightweight, super pretty.

  14. Congrats @gnome #Amberol is very #accessible music player! Player controls including volume and skip sliders, playlist view, playlist selection all these features can be used with keyboard alone and screen reader turned on. If GTK issues like inaccessible shortcuts window, role names part of the controls labels will get fixed in the future it would really become fully complete in terms of #a11y.

  15. Amberol GTK Music App Gains New Features, Reduces Memory Usage

    I’m a big fan of Emmanuele Bassi’s Amberol music player and the latest version, released this weekend adds a couple of pretty big new features. Before I get to those, I will point out that this GTK-based music music player has been updated numerous times since I spotlighted it back in April. UI improvements, including relocating the playlist to the left-hand side of the window, have been implemented; there’s now an option to disable UI recolouring; and comprehensive MPRIS support. Amberol 0.8 is the latest release and it lets you search for songs in the playlist/queue. You don’t need to :sys_more_orange:

  16. Acabo de trobar un reproductor de música per #linux que no havia vist mai i m'encanta la part gràfica, la llàstima és que es moooolt senzill.
    gitlab.gnome.org/World/amberol
    #amberol

    De fet no he pogut obrir una biblioteca amb gaires cançons perqué es penjava...

    Perqué no hi ha cap reproductor visualment semblant pero amb característiques més avançades?
    Sempre he trobat a faltar una app així per linux. Estil #musicbee , m'encantava!

  17. New #Amberol release, hot off the presses:
    - lots of UI papercuts fixed
    - better feedback on file and folder import

    Get it on Flathub: flathub.org/apps/details/io.ba

  18. Amberol is Fab No-Frills Audio Player for GNOME Desktops

    Looking for a simple, focused, no-frills music player that fits in beautifully on the modern GNOME desktop? Check out Amberol. “Amberol aspires to be as small, unintrusive, and simple as possible. It does not manage your music collection; it does not let you manage playlists, smart or otherwise; it does not let you edit the metadata for your songs; it does not show you lyrics for your songs, or the Wikipedia page for your bands,” states Amberol’s Gitlab page. That’s to say all this audio player does is play music and …Well, that’s pretty much it! You do get a :sys_more_orange:
