La barre d'ambiance (Moodbar)

La Moodbar donne l' "ambiance" (mood) d'une piste, que vous pouvez ensuite utiliser pour signaler que quelquechose d'intéressant arrive dans la chanson.

Pour que Amarok affiche des barres d'ambiance pour votre musique, vous aurez besoin du programme Moodbar (voir ci-dessous pour le téléchargement et les paquetages binaires).

Le paquetage Moodbar nécessite GStreamer et des greffons variés qui dépendent des types de fichiers que vous utilisez (voir les types de fichiers supportés). Vous n'aurez pas besoin du paquetage phonon-backend-gstreamer pour créer des fichiers .mood .

There are two parts to the new Moodbar implementation: the Moodbar package, which contains a program that takes a music file and generates a .mood file, and support code in the Amarok source, which runs the binary and displays the Moodbar. The Moodbar package depends on the GStreamer libraries. Without the Moodbar package, Amarok cannot generate the moodbars for your music.

As an alternative, there is a new script which will create moodbar files for tracks in an Amarok playlist; this is an exception to the above. The script needs nothing but Amarok to work, but it only creates the .mood files as they are played in the Playlist.

Moodbar est le résultat du travail de Gavin Wood et de Simon O'Keefe, qui ont conçus les algorithmes; leur documentation initiale est ici.

Résumé des besoins

Le binaire de Moodbar , dans votre variable PATH (après avoir démarré
```
which moodbar
```
d'une console) — Pensez à configurer le paquetage Moodbar avec
```
./configure --prefix=`pkg-config --variable=prefix gstreamer-0.10`
```

The GStreamer 0.10 library and plugins for the formats you want Moodbar to be able to analyse. A GStreamer 1.0 based fork is also available, see below.

The Fastest Fourier Transform In The West (fftw.org) FFTW library version 3.0 or above (at least single-precision floating point version - libfftw3f) — If your platform does not provide this for you or you need to compile your own version, remember to configure the FFTW package with
```
./configure --enable-single
```

A version of Amarok with a Use moods option in the General section of the configuration screen. This means 1.4.4 or higher in the 1.4 series or 2.2.2 or higher in the 2.x series.

Information

Systems with package managers should automatically install the GStreamer plugins and FFTW along with the Moodbar package; this information is provided mostly for people who want or need to compile from source or manually install packages.

Utilisation

Aujourd'hui les fichiers .mood doivent être générés la main. Amarok ne peut pas le faire pour vous. Pour appliquer cela à votre collection entière, utilisez le Script de génération de fichier Moodbar décrit ci-dessous.

To enable the display of moodbars in Amarok, activate it in the configuration: Settings -> Configure Amarok -> General -> Show Moodbar in Progress Slider. Moodbars should now appear in the track sliders in the player window and Playlist; there will also be a mood field that you may add to your playlist layouts.

Installation

Téléchargement des sources

Latest release: moodbar-0.1.2.tar.gz — this is the Moodbar source package, which contains the Moodbar program (which generates .mood files from music files), and a GStreamer plugin that does the work. The Moodbar package needs GStreamer 0.10.* installed, plus the 0.10.* version of various plugins. Be sure to install the Moodbar package into the same prefix as GStreamer — follow the instructions in the INSTALL file.

As the Moodbar version above uses nowadays obsolete GStreamer 0.10 and the original source code link is dead, sources have been uploaded to GitHub and a forked version supporting GStreamer 1.0 has been developed.

If you find any bugs, please submit a bug report at bugs.kde.org.

Paquetages Debian

A package for Moodbar is now available in Debian unstable. Simply run

apt-get install moodbar

Script de génération de fichiers Moodbar

Here is a simple bash script that will add .mood files to your entire collection. It adds mood files for all files matching the extensions in the current directory and all subdirectories, so it's best run from the base of your music directory.

#!/bin/bash
 DIR=${1:-.}
 LAST=~/.moodbar-lastreadsong
 C_RET=0
 
 control_c()        # run if user hits control-c
 {
   echo "" > "$LAST"
   echo "Exiting..."
   exit
 }
 
 if [ -e "$LAST" ]; then
   read filetodelete < "$LAST"
   rm "$filetodelete" "$LAST"
 fi
 exec 9< <(find "$DIR" -type f -regextype posix-awk -iregex '.*\.(mp3|ogg|flac|wma)') # you may need to add m4a and mp4
 while read i
 do
   TEMP="${i%.*}.mood"
   OUTF=`echo "$TEMP" | sed 's#\(.*\)/\([^,]*\)#\1/.\2#'`
   trap 'control_c "$OUTF"' INT
   if [ ! -e "$OUTF" ] || [ "$i" -nt "$OUTF" ]; then
     moodbar -o "$OUTF" "$i" || { C_RET=1; echo "An error occurred!" >&2; }
   fi
 done <&9
 exec 9<&-
 
 exit $C_RET

Copy and paste the above into a text file named moodbar.sh in your music directory and run the following commands:

cd /path/to/music
 bash moodbar.sh

Alternatively if the above does not work, you may try:

chmod +x moodbar.sh
 ./moodbar.sh

This may take a very long time for large collections! Note that the moodbars will not appear in Amarok until Amarok rescans the collection. The generated mood files will be dotfiles (i.e., prefixed with a full stop), or hidden files - so keep this in mind if you can't find any generated mood files.

Based on the above script, an alternative for multicore CPUs:

#!/bin/bash
 NUMCPU="$(grep ^processor /proc/cpuinfo | wc -l)"
 
 find . -type f -regextype posix-awk -iregex '.*\.(mp3|ogg|flac|wma)' | while read i ; do
 
        while [ `jobs -p | wc -l` -ge $NUMCPU ] ; do
                sleep 0.1
        done
 
        TEMP="${i%.*}.mood"
        OUTF=`echo "$TEMP" | sed 's#\(.*\)/\([^,]*\)#\1/.\2#'`
        if [ ! -e "$OUTF" ] ; then
                moodbar -o "$OUTF" "$i" &
        fi
 done

Dead Links

The links are not available anymore. I don't know if it should be updated or deleted

There is another script at Github, which shows previews of the generated mood files on the command line while they are being generated. Read more about it at the author's blog.

Dysfonctionnements

If the Moodbar executable gives you a bus error, that almost always means it can't decode (or can't find) your file. Take a look at the supported file types below for ideas on which GStreamer plugins to install. You can also try the command below to test whether GStreamer can decode your file:
```
gst-launch filesrc location=[file] ! decodebin ! fakesink
```

If you are using the ffmpeg plugin to decode mp3s, you may also receive mysterious bus errors. The solution is to stop using the ffmpeg plugin, as it is extremely buggy — use mad instead.

If the Moodbar executable tells you that it can't find an element — i.e., it gives an error message like
```
Could not create element of type fftwspectrum, please install it.
```
— that usually means that you either don't have the required plugins installed (see the plugin list here), or that you didn't install the Moodbar package in the same prefix as GStreamer. If libmoodbar.so and libgstdecodebin.so are not in the same directory, then Moodbar is not installed in the same prefix as GStreamer. Please read the INSTALL file for instructions on how to configure the moodbar package correctly. Alternatively, if you know what you're doing, it may be easier for you to take a look at the GST_PLUGIN_PATH environment variable.

If you're wondering why the Moodbar isn't working, either not working at all or not working for a particular file, run the command below, where [file] is a music file:
```
moodbar -o test.mood [file]
```

If you have multiple versions of GStreamer installed, make sure all of the required plugins are installed for version 0.10.* -- different versions cannot use each other's plugins.

Types de fichiers pris en charge

You will need various Gstreamer plugins to enable Moodbar to analyze your files. Here is a list of the plugins you will need; make sure to install the 0.10.* version of each plugin:

Filetype	Required Plugin	Note
All	gstreamer-0.10.*, gst-plugins-base, gst-plugins-good
mp3	gst-plugins-mad (in gst-plugins-ugly)	ffmpeg plugin has problems; do not use for mp3
ogg	gst-plugins-vorbis, gst-plugins-ogg
flac	gst-plugins-flac
mp4	gst-plugins-faad, gst-plugins-bad
musepack	gst-plugins-musepack
wma	gst-plugins-ffmpeg
