usability
by Ben Crowell - Jun 21st 2005 08:31:51
I had some major usability issues with xmms. The little text labels on the
interface are in fonts that range from microscopic to merely too small to
read. One little block of white text looks like it's about four pixels
high. And even when I leaned up to the monitor and squinted so I could
spell out the letters of some of the stuff that was in
less-incredibly-small fonts, I couldn't make much sense out of it. For
instance, "OAIDV" doesn't mean anything to me. The contrast on
some of the controls is also low, and the 3-d highlights on the luscious,
shiny-black surfaces are easier to see than the controls. It looked like
there was a number 4 at the upper left corner, but I couldn't tell what
that meant. It violates the normal UI conventions of my WM (fluxbox) by not
having the [.] [_] [ ] [X] stuff at the top. There is no built-in
documentation that I could find, and the About... window doesn't tell me
anything, not even the URL of the web site. The blurb on freshmeat says it
can play CD audio, but I couldn't get that to work.

The problem with usability is that the interface was made to
resemble Winamp's. It's a plus that people used to
Winamp's GUI can switch over to XMMS easily but for new
users it's a pain.

xmms's unsmooth track switching
by Stybanez - Mar 9th 2005 07:59:51
Why is it that all players create a big hole of no sound between two
tracks? This is very annoying especially when live albums are played. I'd
switch to linux if xmms solves this problem!

mp3 files have silence at the beginning them ALWAYS. There's nothing you
can do about it. Rip your live albums into 1 mp3, rip them as some other
compressed audio, or just live with it.

wrong, if the mp3 is ripped correctly, thare are _NO_ blank added
for the playing part, use the crossfade plugin, which has a 'gapless' mode
, of course this will work only for correctly ripped files ..

winamp
by Plutoid - Jun 18th 2003 22:24:50
Do you think you will ever try to take market share from winamp? I use
xmms on my linux box and love it, but I hate how big winamp is getting for
my windows machine.

no URLs?
by wishes - Jun 1st 2003 19:14:06
Ive had issues with not being able to use Locations (http urls etc) to play
streaming.
I thought perhaps it was a debian bug so i removed the debian package and
compiled from source and still having the same problems. Is this a known
bug? fixable?

I've use streaming just fine for a long time now, both over the internet,
on my lan, and off a LOCALHOST proxy.
What kind of issues are[were] you having?

ID3V1 Vs. ID3V1
by sandolo - Feb 6th 2002 06:54:51
I can't understand if XMMS supports ID3V2...
It seems that in the playlist XMMS display ID3V2 song names and author,
but when you click on the INFO button, only ID3V1 are shown..
Hey, developers, look here! :P

Playlist font...
by Thomas Nilsson - Jun 21st 2000 14:23:54
Start XMMS, press ctrl-p, go to the options tab, and choose another
playlist font. That should do it for now.

http streams like WinAmp has..

xmms 1.2.0 problem
by ccms - Jun 14th 2000 15:22:40
Hi!
I just installed the new xmms to mandrake 7.1
and it compiles fine from both rpm and tar.gz
source, but when it starts it complains that
the playlist font cannot be found and it doesn't show
any songnames in the playlist. Is there some bug in the
version because the 1.0.1 works fine.

http redirect patch (for live365 etc)
by Virago - May 21st 2000 18:56:49
As of xmms 1.0.1, the HTTP redirect codes are not handled. Here is how I
added support for it.
In file Input/mpg123/http.c, find http_buffer_loop() at line 320.
1. Add 'retry' label after decls at line 331:
struct timeval tv;
retry:
url = g_strstrip(url);
2. Add check for redirect at line 454:
if (status[1] == '2' || status[1] == '3')
3. Add this block of code at line 473 between the while loops:
if( status[1] == '3' )
{
/* redirection -- get location and retry */
while (going && !eof)
{
if (http_check_for_data())
{
if (mpg123_http_read_line(line, 1024))
{
if( !strncmp(line, "Location:", 9 ) )
{
url = line+9;
while( *url == ' ' ) url++;
close(sock);
goto retry;
}
}
}
}
status = g_strdup_printf("Couldn't connect to host
%snRedirect to unspecified location", chost);
show_error_message(status);
g_free(status);
}
4. Enjoy!

I must be missing something...
by Jacob Luna Lundberg - Apr 2nd 2000 19:00:34
All I get when I go to
http://www.xmms.org/ is somebody's lame
"here's my server" page. If it were still yesterday I'd think it was an
April Fools thing. Does anybody know where they went?

low CPU usage?
by dbt - Feb 16th 2000 16:28:40
Your version of top(1) probably doesn't understand multithreaded apps. Use
time(1) for a more accurate benchmark of CPU usage.
