Viridian

Viridian has sort of been on the back burner for now while I finishing up graduating… Hopefully soon in the future I’ll have more time to continue working on it.

Check out the newest version of Viridian in the downloads section.

-Change Log-
* Added localization support (thanks: stefano-k)
* All artists and albums are now pulled when Viridian loads.. way faster now
* Changed the default timeout in Viridian, this should help those with slower connections/servers
* Copy song URL to clipboard now an option when you right click on a song
* Fixed viridian-cli
* A detailed description of authentication failure is now displayed to the user… this is really helpful
* Minor bug fixes to correct and sanitize the data being returned via XML to Viridian
* Full plugins engine implemented! you can write a plugin to execute when the song in Viridian changes

New version of Viridian released today, you can find it in the downloads section of this site!

This version has the following new features:

* Ability to export local playlists to M3U files to be read in by an Ampache Server (thanks: porthose)
* Fixes for crashing related to illegal characters in the XML (thanks: Geoffrey Anderson)
* Support for the newest Ampache Nightly builds (3.6) by correcting the way Viridian requests information from Ampache
* Fixed issues with Viridian when trying to view playlists from a server that didn’t have any playlists
* Default download directory set to ~/Downloads if the folder exists… this should have been there from the beginning
* Added ability to control Viridian with the media keys on your keyboard even when Viridian does not have focus! (thanks: Andrew Barr)

I have been working to add some more features to Viridian for the next version!

Some of the things to look forward to for the next version (after 1.1) are:

• Ability to export local playlists to M3U files to be read in by an Ampache Server (thanks: porthose)
• Fixes for crashing related to illegal characters in the XML (thanks: Geoffrey Anderson)
• Support for the newest Ampache Nightly builds (3.6) by correcting the way Viridian requests information from Ampache
• Fixed issues with Viridian when trying to view playlists from a server that didn’t have any playlists
• Default download directory set to ~/Downloads if the folder exists… this should have been there from the beginning

And finally… my personal favorite which I have wanted from the beginning.

• Added ability to control Viridian with the media keys on your keyboard even when Viridian does not have focus! (thanks: Andrew Barr)

These new features will be in the next version of Viridian which will most likely be 1.1.1… if you absolutely can’t wait and want to be on the bleeding edge you can always pull the newest code from launchpad.net… check out the downloads section for more info!

New version of Viridian finally released, check it out in the downloads section.

A major bug was worked out of Viridian, and the new version (1.1) should be released really really soon!

On a music related note, check this guy out, the whole album is phenomenal.

I’m in the processing of wrapping up the next version of Viridian which boasts a lot more features than version 1.0. I’ll update this site when I finish the newest version, but as always you can pull the newest code from my launchpad site! stay tuned…
