67 2. Installation | |
68 --------------- | |
69 | |
1174 | 70 Audacious requires the following libraries and their development |
0 | 71 packages installed: |
72 | |
2567 | 73 Glib 2.6 |
0 | 74 (http://www.gtk.org/download/) |
75 | |
2567 | 76 GTK+ 2.6 |
0 | 77 (http://www.gtk.org/download/) |
78 | |
2567 | 79 libglade >= 2.4 |
80 (http://ftp.gnome.org/pub/GNOME/sources/libglade/2.4/) | |
0 | 81 |
2568 | 82 mcs >= 0.1 |
83 (http://sacredspiral.co.uk/~nenolod/mcs) | |
84 | |
1174 | 85 If you compile Audacious from a fresh CVS checkout, you will also need |
0 | 86 the following tools: |
87 | |
1427 | 88 automake >= 1.9 |
89 autoconf >= 2.59 | |
0 | 90 |
91 Note that these tools and libraries are bundled with major Linux | |
92 distributions. Use the packages provided with them where possible. If | |
93 those packages are not sufficiently new, you may need to search | |
94 third-party repositories for them. | |

0 | 149 |
1174 | 150 However, you don't need to as Audacious supports archived skins. Audacious |

154 Just copy the archive to one of the skin paths and Audacious will take care |

157 In order to support zipped skins you will need to have unzip. Unzip | |

190 Winamp. |
0 | 191 |
192 - On the top is the window title bar. To the right you will see 3 buttons, | |
1174 | 193 Left button will minimize Audacious. |
194 Middle button will make Audacious only display the title bar. | |
195 Right button will end the Audacious session. | |
0 | 196 |
197 - The area in the upper left part displays the following: | |
198 - Play state: Paused, Stopped, or Playing | |
199 - Time elapsed in the current song or if you click on it, the reversed. | |
200 - Spectrum analyzer of the sound being played. Right mouse click will | |
201 bring up the Visualization menu. Left mouse button will change the | |
202 analyzer to an oscilloscope and/or none. | |
203 | |
204 - To the right of the Spectrum analyzer is the title of the file being played. | |
205 This also contains the length of the song being played, as well as its | |
206 position in the [unsorted] playlist. Right clicking in this window will bring | |
207 up a new menu with some more options that are self explaining. | |
208 | |
209 - In the left part of the Spectrum analyzer you'll have letters (at least if | |
210 you use the default skin) O A I D V. This is known as the | |
211 "clutterbar'. Left-clicking on these will open up menus or perform the | |
212 listed actions. | |
213 O : Options menu | |
214 A : Always on top | |
215 I : File info box | |
216 D : Double size mode | |
217 V : Visualization menu | |
218 | |
219 - Underneath the track title are the following static informational data: | |
220 - bit rate in KBps (usually 128 or 112) | |
221 - Sample Rate in KHz (usually 44) | |
222 - Stereo or Mono channel mixing | |
223 | |
224 - Underneath the informational data are a few controls you can play with: | |
225 - The first slider controls the volume | |
226 - The second slider controls the balance between speakers | |
227 - The button marked "EQ" loads up the graphic equalizer | |
228 - The button marked "PL" loads up the playlist editor | |
229 - The LARGE slide bar moves from left to right as the song plays. You can | |
230 drag this to jump to another location in the current file. | |
231 | |
232 - On the bottom of the console are the standard buttons you would see on a CD | |
233 player: Previous track, Play, Pause, Stop, Next track, eject, shuffle | |
234 and repeat. | |
235 | |
236 - The eject button doesn't REALLY eject, of course. :) It opens up the | |
237 file requester. The File Requester builds a playlist for the current | |
1174 | 238 Audacious session. You can use it to load files, add files to the list, or |
0 | 239 load all mp3s in a directory. |
240 | |
241 - The shuffle button randomizes the sequence of the playlist. | |
242 | |
243 - The repeat button when enabled makes the playlist loop when it reaches the | |
244 end of the playlist. | |

345 using the cursor keys and enter to select song. Pressing the delete button will | |
346 remove the song from the playlist. If your mouse is equipped with a mouse | |
347 wheel, you can use this to scroll up and down. | |

350 -------------- | |
351 | |
352 To access the Equalizer, select the button labeled "EQ" on the right | |
1174 | 353 side of the Audacious console. |

356 and behaves like one as well. Press the button labeled ON to enable the use of | |
357 the equalizer, once you turned it on you use it as a normal equalizer. | |
358 | |

361 also import/export from Winamp's preset files. |
0 | 362 |
1174 | 363 If 'Auto' is enabled, Audacious will try to load equalizer presets like this: |
0 | 364 |
365 1: Look for a preset file in the directory of the file we are about to play. | |
366 2: Look for a directory preset file in the same directory. | |
367 3: Look for a preset saved with the "auto-load" feature. | |
368 4: Finally, try to load the "default" preset. | |

478 3.6 Plugins | |
479 ----------- | |
480 | |
2306 | 481 Plugins are what makes Audacious work, by moving most of the code out of |
482 Audacious and into a plugin architecture it's possible to change almost | |
483 everything in Audacious. There are today 8 different types of plugins. | |
0 | 484 |
2306 | 485 However to promote maximum flexibility of the platform itself, we no longer |
486 include any plugins with the Audacious core. | |
0 | 487 |
2306 | 488 You will need to download and install our plugin pack for Audacious if you |
489 expect it to do anything useful (or install someone else's plugin pack if one | |
490 should exist). | |
0 | 491 |
2306 | 492 Additionally, you can find a list of plugins at: |
493 http://audacious-media-player.org/Plugins | |
0 | 494 |
2306 | 495 You should note that third-party plugins are not supported by the Audacious |
496 development team, and that you should report any issues with them on our forums, | |
497 but NEVER on our bugtracker. | |
0 | 498 |
2306 | 499 3.7 Playlist Manager |
500 -------------------- | |
0 | 501 |
2306 | 502 Audacious supports multiple playlists (think foobar2000). For the manipulation of |
503 playlists, we have included a playlist manager tool. | |
0 | 504 |
2306 | 505 It is accessible from the Playlist menu. |
0 | 506 |
507 | |
508 4. Command Line Options | |
509 ----------------------- | |
510 | |
2306 | 511 audacious --help will produce: |
0 | 512 |
2306 | 513 Usage: audacious [options] [files] ... |
0 | 514 |
515 Options: | |
516 -------- | |
517 | |
518 -h, --help Display this text and exit. | |
1174 | 519 -n, --session Select Audacious/XMMS session (Default: 0) |
0 | 520 -r, --rew Skip backwards in playlist |
521 -p, --play Start playing current playlist | |
522 -u, --pause Pause current song | |
523 -s, --stop Stop current song | |
524 -t, --play-pause Pause if playing, play otherwise | |
525 -f, --fwd Skip forward in playlist | |
526 -e, --enqueue Don't clear the playlist | |
527 -m, --show-main-window Show the main window | |
528 -v, --version Print version number and exit. | |
2306 | 529 -H, --headless Headless operation |
530 -E, --enqueue-to-temp Enqueues to a temporary playlist. | |
0 | 531 |
532 You can specify files on the command line, e.g: | |
533 | |
2306 | 534 audacious file1.mp3 file2.mp3 file3.mp3 |
535 audacious *.mp3 | |
536 audacious playlist.m3u playlist.pls playlist.xspf | |
0 | 537 |
2306 | 538 If you do this while Audacious is running, the current playlist |
0 | 539 will be cleared and the files/playlist specified on the command |
540 line will be used instead. | |
541 | |
2306 | 542 To keep the current playlist intact use the -E option, which will |
543 create a new temporary playlist with the requested media, or the | |
544 -e option, which will append to your currently selected playlist. | |

610 If you have a windows partition with Winamp installed, a good idea would be to |
0 | 611 set the SKINSDIR variable to that dir. |
612 | |
1174 | 613 Audacious features some command line options like next/previous songs, those |
0 | 614 things can be binded to a key. I use AfterStep and the useless window keys |
615 for this. Here is an example from my .steprc: | |
616 | |
1174 | 617 Key Meta_R A N Exec "Audacious" audacious -r |
618 Key Menu A N Exec "Audacious" audacious -f | |

620 If you want all your mp3's in one playlist an easy way is: | |
621 locate .mp3 > /path/to/playlistname | |
622 | |
623 (considering you have a fairly recent updatedb, don't blame us if locate don't | |
624 find the file you downloaded 3 minutes ago) | |
625 | |
626 | |
627 8. Bugs | |
628 ------- | |
629 | |
1174 | 630 Audacious is under heavy development and as such, has quite a number of |
0 | 631 bugs. Our bug tracker page is maintained at: |
632 | |
2306 | 633 http://bugs-meta.atheme.org/ |
0 | 634 |
635 It will continue to have bugs as we fix and introduce new ones through | |
636 rewriting and enhancement. Help us along by reporting new bugs, and | |
637 verifying existing ones. | |
