又一個夏天,又一個對整個Amarok團隊來說即平靜而繁忙的夏天過去了。 在這個夏天的每一天,我們都在忙著實現新的特性、修復錯誤,讓Amarok更好用。 無論是海灘上,在火車站,在機場,還是在森林的小木屋裡,我們團隊從來都沒有停止開發。
因些,現在我們可以向你展示Amarok 2.2的beta 1版,代號:白水晶。
你喜愛的音樂播放器裡所有的元素我們都涉及到了。 更新日誌著實是非常多。 現在Amarok可以在左側使用嶄新的瀏覽佈局和視頻片斷小應用(提供來自各種網站的你喜愛的歌曲的音樂視頻)。 新的照片顯示應用可以獲取當前藝術家的照片來配合播放氣氛。 其他許多應用也得到了巨大的更新。
左邊,右邊,中間......是不是有些乏味了。 那麼,現在你可以改變不同元素的佈局了,把它們放置在*你*想要的地方! 你甚至可以把元素都放在頂上,然後使用標籤來切換它們。 那麼是不是嫌工具欄太大而不合您的口味? 那麼,就試試全新的toolbarNG (下一代工具欄)。 當然,我們並沒有停止增強視覺方面的功能。 我們還改善了收藏掃描器和消除了其中的一些錯誤。 你現在可以在收藏視圖上,當前音軌應用上,還有播放列表中直接給歌打分評級。 你有媒體設備? 插上它,它就會顯示在收藏瀏覽器中。 想要播放CD? 只要在您的驅動器,它就會出現在收藏瀏覽器,即可以讓你直接播放,也可以拷貝音軌到硬盤。
播放列表也有許多的新功能提供。 它現在提供了直觀的高級多級排序,全部或部分混排,和改變音軌分組方式的選項。 所有這些不同的播放列表設置可以一起存儲為一個書籤,方便日後使用,例如,如果根據作曲家來分組曲目,應用一個播放列表佈局來顯示作曲家和在組頭中顯示非專集的相關信息等。 說到書籤,無論是內容瀏覽器和播放列表現在有一個非常簡單的接口來存儲和調用書籤;和編輯,分組和刪除書籤,書籤管理器已大大改善,現在可從工具菜單進入管理。
在“保存播放列表”類別中你會發現導入的播放列表文件在掃描時會顯示在收藏文件夾上。 當你在Amarok 2.2中更改文件中,這些磁盤上的文件也會發生變化。
你可以查看下面完整的更新日誌
下載下來,嚐嚐鮮,如果發現有什麼錯誤也請在bugs.kde.org上發個報告,大約一個月後我們即將發布Amarok 2.2版,敬請期待。
