musikcube's Issues

Integrate audioenginge in transportview

I suggest we have some sort of musik::core::Coordinator singleton class
that coordinates the transporter and current playlist ("now playing"). This
coordinator class should have signals that we could hook in the
transporterview.

Support for crossfading

Cross-fading between 2 songs should be possible

mC2 should remember last played song etc...

Issues from mC1, which should be avoided in the following way:

- Remember (= select/highlight) the last played song after stopping
playback or a musikCube restart.

- Show the last used view (e.g. "Now Playing" or the Library) after mC
restart. 

- Remember the selection/filtering when changing from Library to Collected
and back. (Forum source)

Make MetadataFilerView searchable

If a MetadataFilderView is focused, typing anything will filter out matched
metadata. The items should be selected as well.

Indexer.

Improve build time

The build time for a clean build is getting worse, especially for the GUI
(project mC2).  We should investigate dependencies, includes and
precompiled headers to improve the build time.

musik::core::Query::ListBase should callback empty results to send the "clear" flag

Currently the ListSelected will not run callbacks when there is no results.
Therefore the ListView will not be cleared as it should.

Context menu options for browsing library

A context menu like "Show in Library" with "This artist", "This album" and 
"This genre".

Compare wxMusik: http://tinypic.com/52awld
Or the miniPlayer plugin: http://i17.tinypic.com/2hhklrp.png

Research options for translating/localizing the UI

How will we handle translations of the interface?

Which libraries/frameworks/... already exist to handle this?

How can we implement this in mC?

How can we offer easy localization for plugins?

Do we want complete localization or just translation of strings?

No notification of end of song

Transporter hangs after a couple of songs

The calls to the Transporter from the PlaybackQueue hangs after a couple of
songs if I let the songs continue playing.

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Doubleclick on a song in the tracklist (there should be more songs
beneath). 
2. The first song will play, and the second will also play.
3. When the third song should start playing, it freezes.

It seems to be related to that the next song is started within the same
thread that calls the transporters signals.

There seems to be some related issue if I click the "next" button 6 or 7 times.

Automatic scoring and dynamic playlists based on user behaviour

Pressing pause doesn't end playback immediately

Whatever is in the buffer is still played after pressing pause.  Should
look into a way to stop WaveOut output immediately without losing the
position in the file.

Minimize to tray

mC should have a systray icon and not take space in the regular task bar
when minimized

Crash in audio output on exit

Hard to reproduce.  Most likely a threading issue where the audio output is
still running when it really shouldn't.

Genre is not updated in browse view if selected artist/album has no genres

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Filter on artist with known genre
2. Switch to artist with no known genres in files
3. The first list of genres is still visible

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
Genre should be cleared if no genres are found for current filter.

extend core::tracklist::Standard functionality

The tracklists need functionality for copy/add/remove tracks. We should
also need queries for listing playlists and loading/saving playlist and
sorting tracks in a tracklist.

Tagreader should handle more filetypes.

The tagreader plugin should handle all formats that taglib can handle.
Maybe a fallback routine to taglibs simple interface.

All "Playback" options possible on doubleclick ("Workflow")

MC1 offers in the "Playback" context menu five options - "Play Now", "Queue

Play" -, but not all can be set as left doubleclick default action.

Artist name split in two

The Indexer considers AC/DC as 2 artists: AC and DC.

This is due to using SetslashSeparatedValues.  We probably shouldn't do that.

Free text search

We should need a freetext search field somewhere. Although I'm not really
sure what metakeys we should search through. Search all metakeys will be
alot of information to go through.

Strange memory problem

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Start mC2 and let it run.

I think this is related to the indexer somehow. After a while the CPU and
Memory drops at the same time.

It does not appear to be a leak since VLC does not report anything and the
mem is release when indexer is finished.

See attachment for screendump.

Switch Transport volume to 0-100 range

Volume is currently a float 0.0-1.0.  When using it outside the transport
it needs to be converted. Switching to 0-100 integers representing % makes
more sense.

Indexer should recognize moved files.

The indexer should recognize moved files. This can be done in several ways.
The best way should be to look for files with same artist, album and title
and check if any of them are unavailable.

    * Slider

Library not entirely shown after startup

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Remove the mC2 DB
2. Start mC2.  I creates a new DB.
3. Only 2 files from the top level music directory are shown.  Files from a
subdir and 1 from the top level are missing in the mC2 track list.  
4. Use SQLite browser to check DB: all files are scanned.
5. Restart mC2: all files/genres/artists/albums are shown.

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
All files should be visible the first time.

Album art

mC2 should be able to show album art.
The indexer already extract the embedded thumbnails from the media files.
Using boost::gil from boost 1.35 is probably the best idea to read the
thumbnails.
