Smart DJ

Amarok 1.x Scripts

5.0
Description:

Smart DJ lets you find tracks based on how similar they sound to each other. It can also automatically add new tracks to your playlist based on how similar they are to what you've been listening to.

In addition to PyQt, this requires songanalysis (0.4.0 or higher), python-commandsplus, python-extattr, python-Observable and python-amarok (these last two are new dependencies) which can be found at

http://rudd-o.com/projects/

(the RPM packages have been linked here for your convenience, and will work if you have Fedora Core 4; the source packages are available at the aforementioned URL, and packages for other distributions may be found in the comments section of this page, thanks to very thoughtful and considerate individuals).

Songanalysis requires the GNU Scientific Library (package named libgsl or gsl, depending on your operating system), mpg321 (package mpg321) and ogg123 (package vorbis-tools).

Hi
i try to run the script, but i get this error:

i think there is a problem with the file’s path, because it’s looking in ./xsober/Musica/Creed/01-Alone.mp3 but the real path is /home/xsober/Musica/Creed/01-Alone.mp3.
is the script running in the /home directory? look that it is, because the path that cause the error is relative to /home , this must be an absolute path…

i using:
Smart DJ-0.6.0
media-sound/amarok-1.4.9.1
media-sound/songanalysis-0.4.0
dev-python/python-amarok-0.1.1
dev-python/python-extattr-0.1.3

thanks for your work!!

When I compiled songanalysis on 64bit it didn't work.
My solution:
Use: ./configure CFLAGS=m32
and then make && make install.
And songanalysis is working great :)
In Amarok, Smart DJś priority queue works, the normal queue doesn't. I'll try to fix that.

Thanks for the software!

What would be the easiest way of installing this script into amarok on ubuntu?

I'm looking at the contents of amarok-show-tempo-1.3.1.diff, and I'm noticing the lines

//check boundaries
if ( bpm > 250 ) bpm = 250;

... which seems to indicate 250bpm is the maximum that can be assigned. My musical tastes run towards jazz that commonly plays up to 280bpm, sometimes even over 300.
Is there any reason I can't change that "250" to a more reasonable :) value, say "400", or is that likely to cause problems with some parts of the script?

I get an error like this :

File "/home/vpanel/.kde/share/apps/amarok/scripts/Smart DJ/songanalysiswrapper.py", line 15, in get_version
if status.command_not_found: return None
AttributeError: 'int' object has no attribute 'command_not_found'

I probably miss a package, but in which one is the "command_not_found" attribute of an int ? Could someone tell me the output of "grep -R "command_not_found" /usr/lib/python2.4/" ?

Thanks

I have made some (primitive but working) Gentoo Ebuilds. No support whatsoever, so please don't bug me about it ;-)

You can get them here: http://files.jordswart.org/SmartDJ-ebuilds.tar.gz

Unpack to your overlay root directory and emerge the contents.

I update presented ebuilds for new version of Smart DJ. You can get it on http://www.zserver.cz/smartDJ_0.6.ebuilds.tar.gz

It works fine for me.

I have one question. In howto is 30s as time for analyse of one song .. but on my computer it is much longer .. about 15 minut and more .. and the mpg321 with songanalysis eat about 50% of CPU .. any suggestion?

I have used your ebuilds for the new version which works much better than the previous one that always crashed analyzing some songs, thank you all.
As for your problems: The analysis of each song takes about 30 secs, so all normal for me here. But the high cpu load you are experiencing is the same for me, but I think this is normal, songanalysis and ogg123 or mpg321 take as much as they can. Maybe some "nice" option would be useful here, just make a feature request to the author.

songanalizis should run with a niceness of 20 by default. At least it does it for me.
BTW, I submitted bugreports at bugs.gentoo.org for the needed programs. I only tested with ppc and x86. Can somebody confirm that this works with amd64 and not with sparc (as stated in the songanalysis-ebuild provided by SupuS)?
I would suggest that you make a comment at bugs.gentoo.org, then

BTW: the songanalysis relies on the sci-libs/sql libraries. I would consider this a pretty heavy dependency. No way you can do this without the dependency?

Hi,
first of all, thank you for your great script, it is working very well with my collection.
However I found that SmartDJ gives an error whenever I try to play a webradio stream.
The error is Javascript: TypeError: Null value

I think that perhaps a protection should be made such that smartdj does not try to analyze streams.

Btw, I also wrote a quick HowTo for Ubuntu. You can find it here:

After fiddling around with the script for a bit I wanted to tweak the slider or tempo/style in order to find similar songs to my liking.
As it stands now, the script tends to choose songs that I don't think sound too similar (for example bringing a rock song after a darkwave metal one). However I don't know what these things stand for.
Furthermore I have no idea what "Editing the tempo" is supposed to do or how it is used (However the calculation of the tempo is always much lower than the original)

Could you write a quick description about those?

Also a suggestion for future versions. If possible, have an option to take the genre of the track into consideration when adding new songs, giving tracks of the same genre a higher priority. In a well-tagged collection it would help for smoother transitions while on a badly-tagged one it could just be turned off.

Now as soon as it starts it asks for the python-observable package. A google search revelaed some link with the python-twisted package but it wasn't that.

There is no log generated for this error (I have deleted it an a new one doesn't appear)

Where can I find that package?
