Version : 2.5.1
Release : 1.fc9

Summary : A GNOME panel applet to control various music players
Description :
Music Applet is a small, simple GNOME panel applet that lets you control a
variety of different music players from the panel. Music Applet provides easy
access to information about the current song and the most important playback
controls.
Music Applet is the successor to the Rhythmbox Applet and currently supports
the following music players:
* Amarok
* Audacious
* Banshee
* Exaile
* MPD
* Muine
* Rhythmbox
* Quod Libet
* VLC
* XMMS1 and XMMS2
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Update Information:
Music Applet 2.5.1 contains fixes for the applet hanging after the player has
already closed and invalid album-art display in Rhythmbox "popup" notifications.
Music Applet 2.5.0 adds support for Amarok 2, fixes uncontrolled growth in
applet with long metadata strings (Fedora bug #452420), improves loading of
album art from Rhythmbox, contains fixes for the rating scale change in Exaile
0.2.14 (from 8-star to 5-star), fixes improper entity encodings of song titles
in notification popups, and replaces the deprecated mpdclient2 library with
python-mpd in the MPD plugin.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
ChangeLog:
* Wed Jan 21 2009 Peter Gordon <peter at thecodergeek.com> - 2.5.1-1
- Update to new upstream release (2.5.1), which fixes the applet hanging when
the player is closed, and processing of album art from Rhythmbox so that it
is shown properly in the information tooltip.
* Wed Jan 7 2009 Peter Gordon <peter at thecodergeek.com> - 2.5.0-1
- Update to new upstream release (2.5.0), which adds support for Amarok 2,
fixes uncontrolled growth in applet with long metadata strings (#452420),
improved loading of album art from Rhythmbox, fixes for the rating scale
change in Exaile 0.2.14 (from 8-star to 5-star), fixes improper entity
encodings of song titles in notification popups, and replaces the deprecated
mpdclient2 library with python-mpd in the MPD plugin.
* Fri Aug 22 2008 Peter Gordon <peter at thecodergeek.com> - 2.4.2-1
- update to new upstream bug-fix release, which fixed gradual increase in CPU
on each song change, MPD password handling, and contains an updated Polish
(pl) translation.
* Wed Jun 18 2008 Peter Gordon <peter at thecodergeek.com> - 2.4.0-1
- Update to new upstream release (2.4.0), which adds Banshee 1.0 support,
and an updated Czech (cs) translation.
* Wed Jun 4 2008 Peter Gordon <peter at thecodergeek.com> - 2.3.1-3
- Apply proper fix from upstream, adding a pyexecdir setting to the 'make
install' invocation (following the automake manual for it) instead of
reverting the BZR change. Drop the now-unnecessary patch:
- fix-widgets-destdir.patch
* Wed Jun 4 2008 Peter Gordon <peter at thecodergeek.com> - 2.3.1-2
- Add patch to correct the widgets.so location, which fixes import errors on
adding/initializing the applet. Resolves bug 449105 (Music Applet Crash):
+ fix-widgets-destdir.patch
* Sat May 3 2008 Peter Gordon <peter at thecodergeek.com> - 2.3.1-1
- Update to new upstream release (2.3.1), which fixes an Amarok plugin crasher
and contains several updated translations.
- Drop external Spanish translation and patch (both applied upstream):
- es.po
- add-es-translation.patch
