JuK love

June 26th 2007 07:51 pm

As a parting gift to the KDE 3.5 series, I’ve gone and finally fixed a few annoying bugs in JuK. This includes bug 116181, which prevented the internet image search feature from working for most people (and then prevented it from working for everyone), bug 126032, which caused the last item in the Play Queue to play twice before shifting back to normal playback, and bug 131238, which resulted in right-clicks in the History playlist showing the wrong column names.

Of course, all of these fixes have been forward-ported to KDE 4. The KDE 4 version of JuK also includes a few minor touchups to the internet image search dialog. I’d like to thank the coders at Yahoo for providing a very easy to use interface to their image search API. Amazon also provides a nice image search API (which is specialized for cover art no less) but the terms of use were not really what Scott and I were willing to add.

    Hi Michael,

    Even though I am an Amarok user myself, I appreciate the work you are putting into JuK. Should I ever decide to switch, it will be to JuK. Can’t wait to see it on KDE 4 :)

    I’ve been using JuK every day for about 4 years now. It’s my favorite music software for Linux by far, and I just wanted to say thanks for all of the work you’ve put into it!
