Latest Release

Version 1.2-Release (1/7/2010):

https://launchpad.net/viridianplayer/trunk/1.2-release

Note: Viridian is for Linux only. It might be possible to run it on Windows/Mac if you can get python/pygtk running on them.

Older versions can be downloaded from the launchpad project site.

Dependencies

Viridian depends on gstreamer to stream the music from the server.  This means that it relies on gstreamer to have the proper codecs to understand how to play each file Ampache might have.  If you are on a fresh install of Ubuntu, you will need to download gstreamer plugins for Viridian to work as expected.  Viridian was written and tested on Python 2.6.

Ubuntu 10.10

  1. Install the mp3 extras when you install the OS, or find them in the software center.

Ubuntu 10.04

  1. Go to Applications -> Ubuntu Software Center
  2. Search for ‘gstreamer’
  3. Install ‘gstreamer extra plugins’
  4. Install ‘GStreamer plugins for aac, xvid, mpeg2, faad’ (optional: do this if your music file types vary, and may include iTunes m4a or aac files)

The Code

The latest code will always be available on the projects launchpad page, just click the image below.
