DBUS Support

[KevinA]

I'm writing MPRIS dbus support for SMPlayer. I've gotten two of the four interfaces up, and i have two questions, one simple, one not so much.

Simple Question:
Does it make sense to implement Tracklist?
I don't think it does, since smplayer doesn't really have a media library.

Other Question:
How are commands passed back and forth within the application?
IE: how do i from my quit, next, or pause methods, send a command to smplayer to quit, next, or pause?
I don't need a complete answer, maybe just a good place to start?

Thanks
Kevin

I know this is late, but I too would support something like this. Not sure how far you may have gotten, but as far as somewhere to possibly start, there are command-line options that can be passed to SMplayer. For example "smplayer -send-action stop" will send stop. Not sure how MPRIS works, but maybe this would be somewhere to start?

I have the two mandotory interfaces written, except 'the QUIT'' method. I am going to implement playlist, i am not going to implement tracklist( no videoplayer i looked at implemented it). But im knee deep in my final semestar, and i dont have the free time at the momment.

Also Im not sure where to submit the patch.

I already got the patch you send me by email, but I still didn't have time to review it. Sorry.

alguna noticia sobre esto?

en el smplayer2 está implementado desde hace un año

https://github.com/lachs0r/SMPlayer2/co ... df78.patch
https://github.com/lachs0r/SMPlayer2/co ... 19fb.patch
no he encontrado más referencias en el repositorio, me supongo que solo es eso

aplicandolos tal cual no va, así que he hecho unas correcciones y he intentado adaptarlo smplayer SVN

(smplayer2 usa cmake en vez de qmake/make)

el parche es este:

http://sl1pkn07.no-ip.com/paste/view/eab7c4d5

compila sin problemas tampoco errores relacionados con la parte mpirs2) en la revision 5306 del SVN de assembla

pero a la hora de ejecutar el smplayer no lo hace funcionar, no da ningun error al ver videos ni nada por el estilo, simplemente no muestra ninguna información, como si no existiera

qdbusviewer tampoco salen referencias de mpris2 ni de smplayer

saludos y perdonad el español, pero como el devel principal es de españa (como yo) es más facil de entendernos

he de decir que no soy programador, ni amateur ni profesional, solo me he fijado en como está contruido el .pro para añadir las sources y aplicar los parches. cual quier cosa relaccionada con codigo no se responder

Has their been any update on MPRIS support? I tried adapting the smplayer2 patch with smplayer a while back, but it looks like they're doing something slightly different (one the files it's trying to patch doesn't exist)

Just curious.

No.

I'll try to add your patch in the future.

Unfortunately there's no kdeconnect in ubuntu precise, that's a problem for me.
