[Desktop-packages] [Bug 45520]
Hi, are there any news on this? will it ever be supported? -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to amarok in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/45520 Title: wish: add individual tracks from .cue files into the collection Status in The Amarok Music Player: Unknown Status in “amarok” package in Ubuntu: Invalid Bug description: Binary package hint: amarok Hello. This is a wish for Amarok. Any listener of classical operas (e.g. La Traviata, Die Walkuere) will have this problem and is stuck with MS Windows for this reason. PROBLEM --- Currently Amarok (and any other linux program I know) does not allow to listen to classical operas in a reasonable way. Two cases are possible: 1. if I rip my CDs one file per track, I hear a brief silence as the track changes and Amarok is loading the next track. This breaks the continuity of the music. ( this is not related to the notorious mp3 bug. The silence happens on any format, like flac, ape, wv, mpc, ogg, wav, and is due to Amarok loading the file) 2. if I rip my cd with a single file per CD, I hear no gap but there is no easy way to move among tracks. POSSIBLE SOLUTION One possible solution is to do what foobar2000 does on windows: understand cue files. When I click a cue file, Amarok should read the track names and times from it, and then load the corresponding audio file in the same folder. The corresponding file is a big single file (~650 MB) with an extension that can be ape, ogg, mp3, wv, flac, mpc, or wav. Amarok would then allow me to move quickly within the big file, by simply clicking a track name on the playlist. This would be the ideal solution because virtually all classical music lovers have their music in APE + CUE format. More seldom they have FLAC + CUE or MPC + CUE (just ask around). Another possible solution is to make Amarok read ahead the next track, so as not to produce silence between tracks. This is what winamp does on windows. That is not ideal, because classical music lovers should reconvert their music to be one file per track.

Bart, I don't have that much knowledge about the cue sheet support. I guess it's not enough for the collectionscanner to just report a cue sheet as a normal song, is it? -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to amarok in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/45520 Title: wish: add individual tracks from .cue files into the collection Status in The Amarok Music Player: Confirmed Status in “amarok” package in Ubuntu: Invalid Bug description: Binary package hint: amarok Hello.

(In reply to comment #43) Bart, I don't have that much knowledge about the cue sheet support. I guess it's not enough for the collectionscanner to just report a cue sheet as a normal song, is it? The first step is reporting the .cue. The collection then has to create individual Tracks for each of the parts, with metadata read from the .cue. To make it all work those tracks need to be time-coded and it has to work automatically in EngineController. It might work with the BoundedPlaybackCapability, but I was thinking of just adding a query argument to the playableUrl that the Engine can interpret. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to amarok in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/45520 Title: wish: add individual tracks from .cue files into the collection Status in The Amarok Music Player: Confirmed Status in “amarok” package in Ubuntu: Invalid Bug description: Binary package hint: amarok Hello.
