Mark Kretschmann announces version 1.1-beta1 of the amaroK audio player:
|
In time for the annual KDE developer conference "aKademy", we present amaroK 1.1, the next generation of the leading audio player for KDE.- GStreamer Fully Integrated with KDE : Play from your Samba share with smb:/, or use the fish KIOSlave to play from a remote host.
- Xine support : This easy to install framework can play a great number of media formats and is very reliable.
- MusicBrainz support for tag editing : No voodoo needed for tagging your music, just click the MusicBrainz button and it will get the song information from the online database.
- Album cover support : If you have album covers in your music directory amaroK will automatically load them - better yet, amaroK can automatically download album covers from the Internet!
- Multimedia Keyboard Friendly : If you happen to have extra multimedia buttons on your keyboard, using amaroK is even more fun. Just use KHotkeys to map those special buttons to amaroK's dcop functions (like play/pause/volume up/volume down and many more)!
- Welcome Wizard : For easy configuring at first program startup.
Please note that this beta release does not support the aRts framework. Use the GStreamer or xine backends instead.
