See https://quodlibet.readthedocs.org/en/latest for the latest documentation. Quod Libet is a GTK+-based audio player written in Python, using the Mutagen tagging library. It’s designed around the idea that you know how to organize your music better than we do. It lets you make playlists based on regular expressions (don’t worry, regular searches work too). It lets you display and edit any tags you want in the file, for all the file formats it supports. Unlike some, Quod Libet will scale to libraries with tens of thousands of songs. It also supports most of the features you’d expect from a modern media player: Unicode support, advanced tag editing, Replay Gain, podcasts & internet radio, album art support and all major audio formats - see the screenshots. Ex Falso is a program that uses the same tag editing back-end as Quod Libet, but isn’t connected to an audio player. If you’re perfectly happy with your favorite player and just want something that can handle tagging, Ex Falso is for you.

Downloads 7 Ex Falso / Quod Libet, Release 3.1.2 $ cd quodlibet If you want translations, you have to create the gettext translation files: $ ./setup.py build_mo Run Quod Libet or Ex Falso: $ ./quodlibet.py $ ./exfalso.py To update to the latest version, switch to the QL dir and run: $ hg pull --update $ ./setup.py build_mo # (only if you need translations) 1.2.10 Mac OS X sudo port install quodlibet Note: There exists a newer version of this page and the content below may be outdated. See https://quodlibet.readthedocs.org/en/latest for the latest documentation. 1.3 Requirements 1.3.1 Core Dependencies Quod Libet depends on the Python runtime and associated libraries. • Python (>= 2.6) • PyGObject (>= 3.2) • GStreamer (>= 1.0) or xine-lib (>= 1.1): • Mutagen (>= 1.14): Particular audio formats depend on various GStreamer decoding elements, as well as other Python modules. GStreamer splits their downlads into ‘’good’‘, ‘’bad’‘, ‘’ugly’‘, and ‘’ffmpeg’‘ packages, each of which contains elements; you probably want them all. 1.3.2 Additional Features Audio Feed support depends on HTTP support and Universal Feed Parser. Many parts of Quod Libet benefit from D-Bus and its Python bindings. iPod support depends on libgpod. Device support depends on UDisks 1. 8 Chapter 1. Table of Contents Ex Falso / Quod Libet, Release 3.1.2 1.3.3 Plugins Part of Quod Libet’s strength is in its rich array of plugins to extend the base functionality and interface with other systems. Some of these depend on libraries of their own. If you don’t have these, the plugin manager will catch these errors and disable the plugin to avoid errors in QL itself, and present them in the plugins error section. Once you’ve installed the libraries, the plugins should work as expected. Some notable examples: • The auto library update plugin depends on pynotify • Zeitgeist plugin depends on the python zeitgeist bindings Note: There exists a newer version of this page and the content below may be outdated. See https://quodlibet.readthedocs.org/en/latest for the latest documentation. 1.4 Features 1.4.1 Audio Playback • Multiple audio back-ends (GStreamer, xine-lib) • Replay Gain support • Auto-selects between ‘track’ and ‘album’ mode based on current view and play order • Applies clipping prevention whenever available • Configurable default (fallback) and pre-amp values to suit any audio setup • Multimedia key support • Real shuffle mode, that plays the whole playlist before repeating • Weighted (by rating) random playback • Proper ‘Previous’ support in shuffle mode • A play queue • Bookmarks within files (or playlists, with a plugin) 1.4.2 Editing Tags • Full Unicode support • Make changes to many files at once • Make changes across all supported file formats • Tag files based on their filenames with configurable formats • Rename files based on their tags • No ugly %a, %t patterns - more readable <artist>, <title> instead • Fast track renumbering • See full instructions at Editing Tags 1.4. Features 9 Ex Falso / Quod Libet, Release 3.1.2 1.4.3 Audio Library • Watch directories and automatically add/remove new music • Hide songs on removable devices that may not always be there • Save song ratings and play counts • Lyrics downloading and saving • Internet Radio (“Shoutcast”) support • Audio Feeds (“Podcast”) support 1.4.4 User Interface • Simple user interface to Just Play Music if you want • Useful as a small window or maximized, no feeling cramped or wasted space • Album cover display • Full player control from a tray icon • Recognize and display many uncommon tags, as well as any others you want. Especially useful for classical music. 1.4.5 Library Browsing • Simple or regular-expression based search • Constructed playlists • iTunes/Rhythmbox-like paned browser, but with any tags you want (Genre, Date, etc) • Album list with cover art • By directory, including songs not in your library 1.4.6 Python-based plugins • Automatic tagging via MusicBrainz and CDDB • On-screen display popups • Last.fm/AudioScrobbler submission • Tag character encoding conversion • Intelligent title-casing of tags • Find (and examine / remove) near-duplicate songs across your entire collection • Audio fingerprinting of music • Control Logitech Squeezebox devices.

  • Translate's Localization Guide
    Translate’s Localization Guide Release 0.9.0 Translate Jun 26, 2020 Contents 1 Localisation Guide 1 2 Glossary 191 3 Language Information 195 i ii CHAPTER 1 Localisation Guide The general aim of this document is not to replace other well written works but to draw them together. So for instance the section on projects contains information that should help you get started and point you to the documents that are often hard to find. The section of translation should provide a general enough overview of common mistakes and pitfalls. We have found the localisation community very fragmented and hope that through this document we can bring people together and unify information that is out there but in many many different places. The one section that we feel is unique is the guide to developers – they make assumptions about localisation without fully understanding the implications, we complain but honestly there is not one place that can help give a developer and overview of what is needed from them, we hope that the developer section goes a long way to solving that issue. 1.1 Purpose The purpose of this document is to provide one reference for localisers. You will find lots of information on localising and packaging on the web but not a single resource that can guide you. Most of the information is also domain specific ie it addresses KDE, Mozilla, etc. We hope that this is more general. This document also goes beyond the technical aspects of localisation which seems to be the domain of other lo- calisation documents.

    Embedding intelligence in enhanced music mapping agents By MARNITZ CORNELL GRAY DISSERTATION submitted in fulfilment of the requirements for the degree MASTER OF SCIENCE In COMPUTER SCIENCE in the FACULTY OF SCIENCE at the UNIVERSITY OF JOHANNESBURG SUPERVISOR: PROF. E.M. EHLERS SEPTEMBER 2007 Abstract Keywords: Pluggable Intelligence, Intelligent Music Selection Artificial Intelligence has been an increasing focus of study over the past years. Agent technology has emerged as being the preferred model for simulating intelligence [Jen00a]. Focus is now turning to inter-agent communication [Jen00b] and agents that can adapt to changes in their environment. Digital music has been gaining in popularity over the past few years. Devices such as Apple’s iPod have sold millions. These devices have the capability of holding thousands of songs. Managing such a device and selecting a list of songs to play from so many can be a difficult task. This dissertation expands on agent types by creating a new agent type known as the Modifiable Agent. The Modifiable Agent type defines agents which have the ability to modify their intelligence depending on what data they need to analyse. This allows an agent to, for example, change from being a goal based to a learning based agent, or allows an agent to modify the way in which it processes data. Digital music is a growing field with devices such as the Apple iPod revolutionising the industry. These devices can store large amounts of songs and as such, make it very difficult to navigate as they usually don’t include devices such as a mouse or keyboard.

  • Downloaded Wav Files Cant Be Edited Best 4 Methods: How to Edit Wav Tags
    downloaded wav files cant be edited Best 4 Methods: How to Edit Wav Tags. Nowadays, there are some media players in the market having built-in wav file tag editor for user to edit song information, such as title and artist name, but not all of them could always satisfy different needs. What if you have got a lot of music tracks that need tag information at the same time?
