Debian Multimedia :: Looking For MP3 Player To Import Existing Directory
Apr 28, 2011
I have a directory of about 1500 tagged mp3s (the directory contains a sub-dir for each artist which contains a sub-dir for each album which contains mp3s). What I am looking for at the moment is a player that allows me to import this directory once and then allows me to navigate the mp3 by tag. I have looked at audacious and abraca but either these don't have such a feature. How to me how to achieve what I need? I use 64-bit squeeze

I'm on Debian Wheezy using Shotwell 0.12.3. I have a bunch of .MOV videos that I want to import to Shotwell. I choose import from folder and select copy pictures. The import proceeds and shotwell tells med the .MOV (and some .jpg:s) are imported. The pictures are imported with no problem and placed in an event 2014-10-19 as expected. But videos are placed in an event dated 2004-01-01 and not in 2014-10-19 where they belong. Obviously, Shotwell does not use the files last edit date. I though maybe there was some bad dates in the metadata and opened the files in both Totem and VLC player but concluded there is no such metadata available (as far as I can tell).So how does Shotwell determine the date for .MOV files? Where does 2004-01-01 come from? Seems random.
Then, I tried dragging all movies in Shotwell to the event where it really belongs. That is, where the recently imported photos got placed 2014-10-19. But instead of the videos beeing moved into that correct event, now all photos appears in the 2004-01-01 event.Undo that last step and close Shotwell. Then, instead I manually (in nautilus) copy the .mov files to the 2014-10-19 folder where the picures resides. Open Shotwell again which detects something happened and starts import the videos again. Unfortunatley they still show up in the 2004-01-01 event
Another wierd thing is if I manually (in nautilus) move the Shotwell 2004-01-01 folder away from the Pictures folder (out of reach for Shotwell). Then when I re-open Shotwell the event does not appear anymore - as expected. But If I try to once again import the videos, Shotwell tells me all videos are duplicates and does not import them!?! In other words, manually removing a folder from Shotwell mess up the database. And that database is obviously not used to populate the events tree in the gui.How do I get my video to appear in the correct event? Alternatively; is there a photo/video library in Debian that actually works?

I have problems with a disordered non-alpabeticly list of existing themes in lxappearance. Googling gives a solution to use the stable version of lxapperance and pinning it to stable. This works great, but is there also a solution of using a alphabelictly sorted themes list in the testing (Squeeze) version of this program?

I have my data on an NTFS drive. When I try to import pictures from this drive, I only get an option for the drive. That is, I cannot choose a sub-folder from which to import. I understand I can tell F-Spot to use sub-folders, but I have many sub-folders with pictures, and I do not want all of them in F-Spot. Is there any way to import a single folder with F-Spot?
I have also tried drag and drop, but I have a hard time getting that to work as well.

For some time I have been interested in life without a GUI, not necessarily living that life per-say but "interested" as a child would be about astronauts. So having taken said interest I've began to study it lightly at first, trying CMUS as my music player (A text based music player ran through terminal). I've also gotten a "Basic" (in the loosest of terms) understanding of how to import music through said program. Other than such, I know how to change directory, and see files via ls commands.
[code]...
I will sometimes elude me as to the full boundaries of it's uses; So I come asking this, amongst all of you does anyone live within a text based environment for extended periods? Days? Weeks? Years? What advantage does living a text based computer lifestyle give you against GUI folks?

An existing Windows 2003 Server hosts a WDS pxe role. A networtk shared directory provides some customized OS.
I have to migrate this server without altered the WDS directory. Is it possible to deal with this stack under Redhat with pxelinux ?
Actually, my tests are negative. But I definitively have to deal with as a requirement. Otherwise an update will be made for each alteration of the OS.
POC : Red Hat 5 64bits, Apache2, Samba3, pxelinux, tftp-hpa.
I had successfully boot a virtual pc under Red hat. But I'm alaways game over with the corporate OS. When I load a pxeboot.n12 file there is an invalid file or corrupt error. When I rename this file as pxeboot.0 (to use pxelinue) the next step is a boot menu. I load a BCD file but after a boot.ini file is required but not present. This file doesn't exits in the current directory.

I installed Debian Wheezy on an external server. For my purpose I need to install a graphical interface with the following command
Code: Select allsudo apt-get install gnome-core xorg iceweaselNext I need to install xrdp to connect to the server via Remote Desktop Connection. Code: Select allsudo apt-get install xrdp
After that I installed Oracle Database 12c. It was a bigger effort to get the whole system going than initially supposed. As far as I can see it is working now. Finally to use Oracle Enterprise Manager in the Iceweasel Browser I also need to install the flash player. After modifying the sources.list I did that with the following command
Code: Select allsudo apt-get install flashplugin-nonfree.It installed successfully. Now I started the browser unfortunately it is not working perfectly. Typing in the URL of the Enterprise Manager I can see the site, but there is no text!!! (see the attached picture)

I keep installing Debian Workstation Player on Debian, but it just doesn't open. I think it might have something to do with the VMware kernel modules not being built or something. How can I start troubleshooting this? Also, why isn't VMware packaged? Has no one tried packaging it yet, or is there a more complex reason?

I am using pepperflash and the youtube HTML5 player on Debian Sid, on an amd64 machine. I am having a problem where the video will just black out every so often, like every minute or two, the audio still works and I need to either go forward or backward in the video to get the image back. I have noticed it on youtube videos which I suppose uses the HTML5 player not pepperflash.

I can not watch a DVD video using Movie Player. It gives the message: An Error Ocurred Can not read from resource. What does it want me to do ? Buy a new DVD player ? I have no trouble with this drive in another distribution on the same computer, or playing audio CDs in this very Debian OS. So I don't think there is anything wrong with the DVD drive. VLC won't do anything either.

from the Ubuntu PPA to the Mepis 8.5 community repo, and it works a treat. It would also be installable in Debian Lenny and higher, as long as you have VLC >= 0.9.4 for the built-in player (which is backported for Lenny in another post I had here) I also ported over the nonfree sp-auth deb package which it requires, only for Intel-base 32 and 64 bit CPUs (it's a 32 bit static binary that does the actual P2P). I could roll a Lenny specific package which does not use VLC if you tell it to use an external player such a mplayer or xine; is anyone interested?

Recently upgraded to Squeeze, and have a problem with Devede I haven`t seen before. When I try to convert three avi files to play on a standard dvd player, the finished ISO is still only 2,2 GB. It turns out only the first file gets included in the ISO, even though I can see Devede processing all files during conversion.

I have installed Squeeze with the Gnome desktop and the Totem Movie Player Application. It seems to work ok but it seem there is no way to delete the history. I found one post on the subject with no reply and have read the bug reports and the problem was not mentioned. I tried to find the file containing the history without success.

I've been away from Linux for a while, so I need to get informed about some of the 32- vs. 64-bit issues concerning video players and codecs. So, what is everyone using these days?
More specifically, is it possible to play, e.g., .wmv files with 64-bit Kaffeine (my favorite player) or any other 64-bit video player? If so, then which combination of player and codec should I use?

[URL]So, I want to hear the state-owned Portuguese radio that plays Classical Music, called "Antena 2", by either (1) clicking its website's listening "popup" window - [URL]- or by (2) adding such radio to my Rhythmbox list.
And, I would like to hear such a radio without having to install the proprietary "Flash" plug-in... And, if I'm forced to install any proprietary plug-in, I would rather install some "gstreamer" package(?) instead. But, preferably, what I would like, would be to use a Free Software alternative, if possible.
But, in the meantime, this is what happens...
1. If I click the above-mentioned link, to the corresponding "popup" window ([URL]), I can't hear anything.
2. If I click on a link at the bottom of that same "popup" window, that says "Listen to the broadcast in Windows Media Player" - [URL] - I'm sent to an identical listening "popup" window/page, where I still can't hear anything - and whose difference is that, now, the link at the bottom of the page says "Listen to the broadcast in Flash" [URL]
That is, this radio's website presents me two alternatives. That are, to listen to it
(1) using the "Flash" technology ([URL]), or
(2) using some "Windows Media Player" technology/codec/format ([URL])
The first of which I would very much like to not have to install, and the second of which I suspect there might be some plug-in package for, that I can install, that will make it possible for me to hear this radio.
And, the reason I suspect the latter, is because, if I try to add the link to the "Windows Media Player" page ([URL]) to my Rhythmbox's list of radios, I get the error message: "Your GStreamer installation is missing a plug-in."
So, which package(s) do I have to install, to be able to listen to this radio on the web - or, even better, through my Rhythmbox list of radios?

I have a DVD with a error located at a certain time. Each time I watch the DVD and then come to that point Movie Player (or vlc player) returns a error. Now I want to rip this DVD but all the rippers I tried return a error at that point when they try to rip it. Rippers I tried:
- dvd::rip
- FFMPEG
- Acidripper
- Avidemux
Now I want to know ain't there a ripper which can read over these errors and still make a decent rip?

I want to give some of my directories special folder icons. For example, I have a Projects directory and I noticed that there is a special 'projects' directory icon available in my icon theme; I think that it would be nice to use that icon instead of the default directory icon.Google informs me that the file ~/.config/user-dirs.dirs can be edited to give certain directories special properties, including special icons. However, all my changes to the file get reverted after restarting my computer. Is there a way to make changes to user-dirs.dirs permanent?

This is probably a stupid question, but is there any way to change the location where gphoto2 dumps the photos it downloads from the camera? Right now it just dumps the them in the current directory.
I've looked through the man page and nothing jumps out at me. The only thing I can think of doing is moving the downloaded photos to a new directory via a hook script, but before I go down that route, is there some kind of option I missed?
