Hi all,

at the Tomahawk website there is a slogan which states:

"Music is everywhere. Now you don't have to be. A new kind of music player that invites all your streams, downloads, cloud music storage, playlists, radio stations and friends to the same party. It's about time they all mingle."

I don't get any radio station to work. Any advice to this?  

Hey guys!
i hope somebody is reading this the forum seems quite empty...

I just installed Tomahawk on my main ArchLinux machine and noticed that its not showing all album covers.
My library has mostly "cover.jpg" files in the album folders and also the most has a "in file" cover image  tag. I did tagging with picard musicbrainz.

What should i do that Tomahawk recognizes all my album cover images?
what kind of system is used? "in file tag" or image files in each folder?

i want to see my album art!

regards!
peace

I am using Gnome Shell in opensuse 13.2, Tomahawk works fine but it is using a QT GUI instead of GTK.
Someone knows how can I use the GTK GUI?

Thanks in advance

when I scanned my list I got duplicate song lists how do I clear duplicate list

I have been using MPV/bomi as my main mediaplayer for years now, it's way better than the horrible VLC.
after I saw that yarock player (v1.1.2) made MPV as an optional backend I thought it would be nice if someone like tomahawk would also use MPV, at least as optional one.

I would personally love to see MPV as the main backend instead of the horrible VLC, but I have no idea if the MPV API's are good enough.

yes...VLC API's are really good but the codecs are not...(I mean the V/A quality)

few links::

MPV

bomi-player

yarock

also SMPlayer is working on MPV support

I have found the Spotify resolver to crash every time after scanning about 700 songs from a 4000 song playlist. Sometimes it gives me an error warning, sometimes it ceases to show any Spotify links and will not begin scanning again. It does not seem to have any such problems with the same playlist on the Mac OS version. Thank you.

Would there be the potential for a simple Spotify playlist export like these two services provide? I would use them instead, but the accuracy of their Spotify matching is horrendous compared to Tomahawk, and also slow, restrictive and bugged.

Thank you all for your amazing work on Tomahawk so far. It is truly impressive what you've achieved.

I have a question that requires someone with knowledge of the Tomahawk's SQL database schema and how they are used.

I am writing a script in python to read playlists from Tomahawk's SQL database file and copy the songs in those playlists to a specified location (e.g. to my phone via micro SD card). I couldn't figure out how to map the songs to actual song files.

I can read the playlist from the playlist table and the indivdual songs from the playlist_items table; I can get the song files and their paths from the file table but I couldn't some how link the two together.

Items in the playlist_item table have a "guid" associated with them. But the items in the file table have "id" -- there seem to be no linkage between the two. Try as I have to read though all of the tables and all the various indexes and such, but couldn't get a clue as how the two are linked together so playlist items can be mapped to a song file/url.

Can someone shed some light on this? Thanks in advance.

Maybe I'm just overlooking it. It would be great to be able to search the forums for keywords.

Now that Amazon offers unlimited storage for only $60/yr, it would be great to see Amazon Cloud Drive support in Tomahawk
