I must be crazy or something. Instead of spending my last friday in France for this year partying in some bar I satyed home and produced another satyr release. The ChangeLog? Here, have some:

(De)Queueing Songs with the keyboard, with visual feedback.
Remembers window size.
Current song highlighted not with selection but with real color changes.
We can select Songs. Right now useful only for queuing several songs at the same time.
Workaround a bug in PyQt4 with the SeekBar.
Show the filepaths as much as possible in the user's encoding.
Hitting F2 in a cell edits its contents.
Silightly cleaner interface: don't show so many 0's.
bug with perv/next: weren't wrapping around.

Go get it from the Download area! I promise to party double tomorrorw...

satyr in GitHub

After several months thinking about it, and just two requests, I finally decided to publish satyr's code. I decided to use github because I already switched to satyr from hg to git, mainly for testing and understanding it. I think I can live with hg, althought branch management in git seems to be given more thought and a good implementation.

So, without further ado: satyr in github

Remember, it's still a test software, by no means polished or ready for human consumption, and with very low development force. Still, I think it has some nice features, like interchangeable skins and a well defined backend, D-Bus support, quick tag edition, reasonable collection managment, and, thanks to Phonon, almost-gapless playback and things like «stop after playing the current this file» (but not «after any given file» yet).

In Debian Sid it mostly works only with the GStreamer backend; I haven't tried the xine one and I know VLC does not emit a signal needed for queueing the next song, so you have to press «next» after each song. AFAIK this is fixed upstream.
