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).Last changelog:
- Fixed various bugs - Functionality was split into separate libraries which can be used standalone now

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…

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!

just to let you guys know,
i have all the needed dependecies that dont come with suse by default in http://software.opensuse.org/download/home:/lemmy04/
have fun
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?
Here are the contents of the logfile:

Is this a file I have to create, or does SmartDJ create this file for me?
I get an error like this :

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
Hi
I have big mp3 file - more than 200MB and its analyze kill smartDJ every time. Has anybody same experience? Is it way to limit size of analyzed songs?
I realized this problem is on this one song only .. I tried repair it by mp3fixer but without succes .. So is way to disable analyze this song by smartDJ? Thankx
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.
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?
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.

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.
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.
I get an error whenever Smart DJ tries to append a track to the playlist
Looking at the .log file, this is the relative entry
ERROR:SuperDynamicModeMonitor: Error while running super dynamic loop

DEBUG:SuperDynamicModeMonitor: Event received: 'NoneType' object has no attribute 'lower'
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?

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

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 songanalyzis: http://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=114243 python-commandsplus: http://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=114245 python-extattr: http://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=114246 python-amarok: http://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=118661 python-Observable: http://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=118660
