La collezione musicale

Il riquadro Fonti multimediali

Il riquadro Fonti multimediali è il posto dove navighi e visualizzi la tua collezione completa di musica. Include le tracce sul tuo disco fisso locale così come quelle su qualsiasi dispositivo o supporto multimediale esterno connesso al tuo computer, come CD audio, lettori multimediali, dischi di rete o fonti internet.

Impostazione di una collezione

Hai tracce musicali in formato mp3, ogg o FLAC sul tuo computer? Inizia dicendo ad Amarok dove trovare questi file così che possa cominciare a creare la tua collezione. Nel menu in alto: Impostazioni -> Configura Amarok -> Collezione.


Viene mostrata una vista ad albero della tua cartella Home. Fai clic sulla casella corrispondente a dove si trova la tua musica, di solito ~/Musica. Poi scegli Scansiona nuovamente l'intera collezione. Questo richiederà un po' di tempo, dunque non allarmarti se Amarok sembra lento per un po'. Una volta che la scansione è completa è meglio chiudere Amarok utilizzando il menu Amarok in alto o Ctrl + Q e quindi riavviarlo. La musica appena aggiunta dovrebbe essere mostrata nella sezione Collezione locale.

Tip
The set of multimedia formats recognized by Amarok is not restricted to those mentioned above; is controlled by the Phonon back end.


Aggiunta di dispositivi multimediali alla collezione

Underneath the search bar near the top of the Media Sources pane you see the different devices and/or content categories within the Content Browser. If you insert an Audio CD in the CD drive it will appear in the Media Sources pane, along with media players, thumb drives, and other USB devices. After an external device has been mounted, it will show automatically within the Media Sources pane.

Below is a screenshot showing three connected sources with music: Audio CD, mp3 player, and the Local Collection.

Ripping a CD into the collection

If you don't have any music files on your computer, it's easy to rip them (copy the tracks from your CDs to your collection). Just pop in a CD, and right-click on the banner of the CD device in the Content Browser to play, or copy to your collection, which will rip and tag your tracks (see image below). If you copy music from an audio CD to your Local Collection, the message bar at the bottom of the Amarok window will indicate that it is busy copying. The ripping may take several minutes. Once the rip is complete, the message in the message bar disappears and the music appears in the content browser of your Local Collection. If the ripped music does not appear in your Media Sources pane it's best to quit Amarok from the Amarok top-level menu, or Ctrl + Q, and then restart it. Now you should see your collection in the left pane. The screenshot below shows how you move tracks from your audio CD, iPod or other device to your collection, using the right-click menu.


In the above context menu, you can also see the the choice to Edit Track Details. Use this option if you have a track that needs a tag edited. This becomes important when you rip music to .WAV format, losing some of the tags. If quite a bit of your collection needs tagging, consider dedicated tagging software, such as

Correct tagging is important to help Amarok show your tracks in the appropriate albums and proper sort order. Learn more about ripping and tagging.

Accessing other media sources

You might have wondered why the Media Sources pane is not called the 'Collections' pane. Amarok gives you access to much more music than just your collection -- Internet shops, audio books, podcasts, music files stored outside your collection, and previously stored playlists. The Amarok breadcrumb navigation is the key to all of this. The starting icon for the breadcrumb navigation is the home folder icon at the extreme top left of the Media Sources pane. This icon expands and contracts as you browse through the Media Sources pane, allowing you to easily navigate your collection by clicking your desired folder in the breadcrumb bar.


If you click the Amarok home folder you see the Media Sources pane on the left below, containing icons to available resources. If you click the Files icon (left image below, second item from the bottom), you will see something similar to the image on the right, below. Notice how the breadcrumb bar expands and how the content of the selected folder is shown in the Media Sources pane (right image below). Clicking the > symbols among the breadcrumbs allows you to view the folders available at that level of the folder structure. The Amarok file browser gives you access to your entire file system, even outside your Local Collection.

Media Sources pane Files icon clicked


Le funzioni delle icone nella cartella Home di Amarok (sopra a sinistra) sono:

Icon Name Action
Local Music Your Amarok collection
Internet Internet shops such as Magnatune, Jamendo and Last.fm. First configure your internet resources in: Settings -> Configure Amarok -> Internet Services
Playlists Saved playlists -- see also Playlists. Also playlists on media devices
Files Your file system
Podcasts Access to Podcasts via RSS feed

Clicking the Local Music icon above or on the Local Music folder in the breadcrumb bar returns you to your collection, showing you a list of all the available resources, artists, albums and tracks that you have previously defined as part of your collection. The breadcrumb bar indicates that you are viewing your Local Music.

Streams and Podcasts

There are two ways to listen to streams. If you have a favorite station, get the stream URL and add it: Playlist -> Add Stream. You'll be able to find it again in Playlists, as a Saved Playlist. Otherwise, browse through the scripts available in our Script Manager (Tools -> Script Manager). There are some excellent collections available, which will show up in the Internet section of your Media pane.

Podcasts have their own section in the Media Pane, above. If you have an RSS or Atom feed URL, click the green + and add it there. If you have an OPML file to import, that choice is available also. Use the context (right-click) menus to Add to playlist, Configure, Remove Subscription, Update Channel, or mark an episode as New. If you are interested in browsing through a large collection of podcasts, check out the Podcast Directory available through the Script Manager, referred to above.

Using the Content Browser

The hard disk of your computer, audio CDs, external devices and the Internet are the basic resources for your collection. After your collection has been set up, it is likely that your collection will hold a large number of albums and tracks, much more than can be shown on a single window.

How to change the display of your collection, below:

Hiding or expanding information

The area of the Media Sources pane below the search bar is called the Content Browser. Three media sources are indicated in the image of a Content Browser below: CD, Local Collection and a Media Player:


Clicking the banner for a device (the blue bar for the Sansa above) shows or hides the content of that device. The direction of the arrow on the right indicates whether the contents for that device is hidden or shown. The content on a particular device can, in turn, be hidden or shown using the same principle, clicking on the appropriate artist or album. An arrow pointing down on the left of an artist or an album indicates that the contents has been expanded. An arrow pointing right indicates that more content for that category is available but currently hidden. In the image above, the information for Mike Oldfield - The Songs of Distant Earth CD has been expanded, showing the individual tracks. On the other hand, the albums and tracks in the Local Collection are hidden. By clicking these arrows you also can expand or hide information.

Changing the order of tracks and albums

The order in which tracks are sorted in the Content Browser can be customised by using the Sort Options button at the top of the Media Sources pane:


The sort order is indicated on the top left of the Media Sources pane, just below the Search text box. The default order is Artist / Year - Album. The display order of the Content Browser can be temporarily switched between the user-defined sort order (described above) and a Merged view in which which artists are listed alphabetically, no matter on which media the music is stored. To toggle the Merged view, click the Merge icon at the top right-hand of the Media Sources pane:


To search your collection, type your search term into the search bar at the top of the Local Music section. Not only can you search by artist, album or track name, but any part. You might create a nice playlist by searching for winter, for instance, or merely find a track when you only remember one word of the title. You can also search by rating, playcount, even filetype. See Amarok Insider Issue 14 for more details.

Deleting items from the collection

Warning
Use this option with care; the tracks will be deleted from your hard drive, not sent to the Trash.


You can delete any item from your collection by right-clicking on it and choosing the bottom item Delete Tracks. A confirmation dialog will appear, preventing the accidental deletion of any tracks. More than one item can be selected with Ctrl+click.
