==== Configuring Phonon ====


'''Phonon''' is the multimedia framework used by '''Amarok'''. It was created to allow KDE 4 to be independent of any single multimedia framework such as '''GStreamer''' or '''Xine''' and to provide a stable API for KDE 4's lifetime. As an added bonus, it simplifies development by providing a simple API that works across different platforms such as '''Windows''' and '''OS X'''.

The result of all this for you, the user, is that you can choose the multimedia framework that works best for you. This is usually pre-configured by your distribution.

On first start, some basic configuration is done; see also Quick Start Guide: Getting Started. But there is more under the hood.

To access the Configuration Menu, go to Settings -> Configure Amarok... and see the following dialog:


General configuration options

Загальне

In the screenshot above, see some General Options you can set. Depending on the distribution, the default settings can vary. When hovering over the options with the mouse pointer, a tooltip will show to explain the individual settings.

Show tray icon Check to enable the Amarok system tray icon.
Automatically retrieve cover art Check to enable the automatic retrieval of cover art from the internet.
Enable context applets collapse animations Check to enable animations when context applets collapse.
Automatically scroll playlist to current track Check to make the playlist scroll so the current track is always visible.
Show Moodbar in progress slider The Moodbar makes it possible to navigate in your music visually. Please note that this feature requires the external Moodbar Generator tool, or a script.
Moodbar style Choose the mood display style.

When you enable the Moodbar, be aware of the following requirements: the Moodbar will only display if your tracks have been tagged with moods. For more about the Moodbar, refer to: Moodbar.

Збірка

This dialog shows your file system in a tree structure, called Collection Folders. Selecting a folder always includes its subfolders. These folders will be scanned for media to make up your collection. You can right-click on a folder to individually rescan it, if it was previously selected.

Імпортування статистичних даних

За допомогою цього пункту ви можете імпортувати статистичні дані, наприклад оцінки або кількість відтворень

  • зі старої версії Amarok 1.4.x (з баз даних SQLite, MySQL або PostgreSQL)
  • з iTunes

Можливості імпортувати дані з бази даних Amarok 2.x не передбачено. Отже, якщо вам потрібно додати дані з бази даних версії 2.x, вам доведеться зробити це вручну.

Metadata

This dialog will allow you to configure the settings for metadata handling. This is a separate page starting with Amarok 2.7

Metadata options:

Option Tooltip
Write statistics to file Check to write play-changing statistics as tags back to the audio files.
Write covers to file, maximum size... Check to write changed covers back to the audio files. This will replace existing embedded covers. Select a value from the drop-down list to set the maximum size of the cover.
Enable character set detection in ID3 tags If checked, Amarok will use Mozilla's Character Set Detector to attempt to automatically guess the character sets used in ID3 tags. If your tags are correct, it is more safe to leave this option turned off.

Statistics Synchronization

This dialog will allow you to keep statistics of your collections synchronized. Make sure to only check collections between which you want to synchronize metadata.

Statistics Synchronization options:

Option Tooltip
Synchronize Rating Check to synchronize ratings between collections.
Synchronize First Played Check to synchronize first played dates between collections.
Synchronize Last Played Check to synchronize last played dates between collections.
Synchronize Playcount Check to synchronize playcounts between collections.
Synchronize Labels Check to synchronize labels between collections.

Відтворення

Playback configuration dialog

Configure the playback options, as well as the KDE multimedia framework Phonon.

Option Tooltip
Fadeout on stop If checked, Amarok will slowly fade the volume of the playing track on stop or at the end of the playlist, or stop playback immediately.
Fadeout on pause If checked, Amarok will slowly fade the volume of the playing track on pausing the current track.
Fadeout duration The length of the fadeout, in milliseconds.
Inhibit automatic suspend if playing If checked, Amarok will prevent the computer from being suspended will a track is playing.
Pause playback on suspend If checked, Amarok will pause playing of the current track when the computer is about to suspend.
Resume playback on start If checked, Amarok will resume playback where you left it the last session -- just like a tape-player.

Configuring Phonon

Phonon is the multimedia framework used by Amarok. It was created to allow KDE 4 to be independent of any single multimedia framework such as GStreamer or VLC and to provide a stable API for KDE 4's lifetime. As an added bonus, it simplifies development by providing a simple API that works across different platforms such as Windows and OS X.

The result of all this for you, the user, is that you can choose the multimedia framework that works best for you. This is usually pre-configured by your distribution.

Playback problems in Amarok are typically not Amarok issues, but rather Phonon issues, as Amarok doesn't handle sound directly anymore.

Device Preference tab

Depending on your OS and distribution, you may need to use ALSA, OSS, PulseAudio, or something else as your default playback device. Find one that works for you with the Test button and apply to all types of output. If you would like different types of output to go with different devices, this is possible as well.

Speaker Setup tab

Should you wish to change the standard speaker setup, here is the place to do it.

Backend tab

Depending on your operating system you may see options such as Gstreamer, VLC, or DS9 (Windows) here. The recommended phonon-backend for Linux users is VLC or Gstreamer.

If you don't see VLC or Gstreamer, install the package for it. For most distributions the package for VLC, for example, would be phonon-backend-vlc.

Each backend comes with its own codecs, so depending on the backend you choose you will need to also download the codecs, as most distributions don't ship them for legal reasons.

Notifications

Notifications configuration dialog


,

Option Tooltip
Use On-Screen Display Check to enable the On-Screen Display. The OSD briefly displays track data when a new track is played. Once checked, the OSD will be visible on your screen and you can drag it to the location you prefer.

Database

External Database configuration dialog

The default database is already set to use embedded MySQL. For most users there is no need to configure an external database, as there is no change in performance. If you want to share your database or use it remotely, you can configure an external MySQL database.

Amarok expects the external database and user account to already exist. The user also requires full access to the database. You MUST restart Amarok after changing these settings.

If your database is not already set up, you can use the SQL commands in the field at the bottom to do so, after replacing the password with the correct one.

Option Tooltip
Use external MySQL Database Check to enable the use of an external database.
Server Enter the name of the existing MySQL server.
Port Enter the port number to access the server. Default is port 3306.
Username Enter the username to access the database with full access privileges.
Password Enter the password for the default user.
Database Enter the name of the database. Default preset is amarokdb.

You can find more information about the External Database here.
