Viridian (Ampache Front-end)
posted by dave
Check out my launchpad project Viridian (https://launchpad.net/viridianplayer). It is a python/pygtk front-end for Ampache (http://ampache.org)! It is a music streaming app that works with Ampache on the back-end.. You can check its site for the latest updates pertaining to Viridian by following the link below!.
Some of the highlighted features of Viridian:
- Create and save custom playlists in Viridian
- Export playlists created in Viridian to be imported into Ampache
- Download songs/albums from Ampache directly from Viridian
- Viridian caches and displays album art from Ampache in Viridian
- Notify osd messages when a song changes or a song finishes downloading
- Silent re-authentications to Ampache (if your session expires for whatever reason)
- Close Viridian and have it continue running as a status icon
- Seek/scrub songs being streamed
- XMLRPC server for communicating with Viridian

It would be great to see it have a search facility for the catalogue, cant see one at the moment. As a family we have 20K tracks and manually scanning through is a pain, a quick track/album/artist search would be very helpful!
Thanks for the work, much appreciated.

Definitely the search thing is the next thing I will work on, as I have been getting a lot of requests for it!
