JUkebox with PHP/HTML5

juph's Issues

Songtitle as page title

Set document.title to the song name that is currently played (abbreviated, displayed form).

AJAX-Suche

Einträge die im eigentlichen Namen kein "MLP" enthalten, aber in der ID ein "MLP" enthalten werden trotzdem aufgelistet bei einer Suche nach MLP.

TODO: Suche nur im eigentlichen Namen.

Elaborate on radio feature

-> Add more radio stations

-> Fix playback behavior when clicking on a Radio stream

Wishlist

Add a wishlist functionality, for when you are missing a track. Make it's User Interface similarly navigat-able as an Excel Spreadsheet (tab, newline, arrow keys, etc.). It could later be extended to be a preliminary step for adding some youtube-dl functionality there.

Search pane extension

Add Button 'add all tracks' to the bottom of the search results. When you click on it, open up a menu:

Radio buttons for number of tracks to add:

• currently visible tracks (max. 10)
• result pages XXX to YYY
• all matching tracks (can be thousands!)

Checkbox 'don't add duplicate songs' (i.e. when you already have some classics in the current playlist and enqueue some piano music, make sure, that you will not add the same song to that playlist twice).

Radio buttons for sorting

• by plays
• by name
• by tag (append each track's tags to a long string, sort then by that long tag field string, order tags by order of creation)
• by song length
• by song year (as tagged 'YEAR')

Checkbox for reversing the above sorting, i.e. descending order.

Bottom 4 Buttons:

• Cancel
• Add as first
• Add as next
• Add as last

Use Audio API for MetaData

For fetching MetaData information, use a Audio database like this: https://www.theaudiodb.com/

It allows for automatic fetching of metadata pertaining to a specific song, e.g.

Return track details from artist/track name
searchtrack.php?s={Artist_Name}&t={Single_Name}
Example - theaudiodb.com/api/v1/json/{APIKEY}/searchtrack.php?s=coldplay&t=yellowPatreon ONLY

see https://www.theaudiodb.com/api_guide.php

Ajax-Suche

Searches that net no result, cause a Prompt "Ajax Error", which asks us to enter a password. That should be differentiated from when the authentication cookie has run out, so that password prompt should only appear then.

fix hardcoded value '5'

juph/include/commons.php

Line 21 in ccc23c3

for($j = 0; $j < 5; $j++)

use count($chr_used_grp) instead

Automatic regular Database backups

Automatically perform a database backup regularly.

What songs did it last play?

Last played song unknown (when using random playback)

Suppose the following scenario:

1. I have a very long playlist with over a hundred entries playing at random
2. Now I notice a particular song piking my interest, but I can not abort my current occupation of drilling a hole into a wooden plank to mount it to a box as that would jeopardize my efforts of the past 15 minutes.
3. 10 minutes later I run to the player to look up what song played. But it's already two songs further! - there is no reasonable way for me to look up the song that played 10 minutes ago.
4. User is sad

Suggestions:

A.) Have some kind of 'event log'. Which registers a separate event whenever a new song is being played. --> Each action could be event based, thus also making a remote control feature more easily possible (so we can perhaps implement another feature more easily: synch multiple devices)

B.) Make the random order somehow visible in the playlist. (Maybe with numbering: '+1', '+2' for the next tracks and '-1', '-2' etc. for the previously played tracks.

C.) Add some 'forward' and 'backward' buttons to the player.

Sort by Length

(as an option to search)

File not found

When an old playlist is played and the original entries' ids have been invalidated, they can't be played anymore! (resulting in an unexpected playback error)

TODO: When replying to a playlist request, also fetch the information, if these entries are valid (individually).
TODO: More specific error messages

Add sleep function

Add a button for enabling an auto-stop after a certain time (i.e. a sleep-timer).

More Icons/Emojis`

As JUPH is heavily focused on entertainment (that is, it tries to make a rooster of music easily accessible to an authorized client) - it should heed the general aim of providing entertainment to the client.

Therefore technicalities, like "PL: classic" which is a reference for a playlist containing classic music should be more intuitively recognizable, through e.g. icons or emoticons (could be using e.g. bootstrap icons).

Add 'by-folder' navigation

As you can currently search by plain name and by tags and by folder names it would additionally be nice to have the ability to search 'by-folder' for one's desired music

Playlist creation from folder

Add the ability to add an entire folder to a playlist, thus easing the playlist creation in well organized music archives.

Fancy project presentation+README

Write a fancy project presentation and a README detailing features and showing screenshots of the player in action, so the project can be found by others

Improve music-player-experience

Great for debugging problems with incomplete loading of music songs https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/GlobalEventHandlers/oncanplaythrough
Maybe helpfull to detect song-loading-steps? https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/GlobalEventHandlers/ondurationchange
For displaying song lyrics or subtitles when playing back a song https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/HTMLTrackElement

Export+Import of .m3u-Playlists

Automatically write saved playlists to disc in the music folder (i.e. export).
Automatically import .m3u-playlists found in music folders.

Thus in case of database failure playlists will not be lost.

Use fancy audio library

Use a good audio library, e.g. howlerjs for e.g. fade-support.

Make keyboard commands visible

Similar to #16 make actions that occur more visible.

E.g. when the user presses the space key (which might happen inadvertently) make like a whole screen filling pause-symbol appear and let it fade rapidly within less than a second. It helps the user more easily detect what is going on. And might assist the user in proper usage.

(I made the mistake myself, pressing space key, pausing the current song, multiple times already).

On-Screen-Keyboard

Add a button to show the on-screen-keyboard.
