A standalone Java client: FireflyClient

Hm, that’s actually a nice feat!
Do playlists that were created by FireflyClient survive a rescan or full rescan?

Yes, I just did a full rescan and it stayed… This actually is causing me a problem as I reorganized my music. Anybody know how to delete the playlist created by firefly client short of deleting the db?
Thanks,
Craig

Just right-click and select Delete.

Impressive. The GUI looks very professional and just works. Thank you very much!

edit: I’m using svn-1695 on a LinkStation 2 (MIPS) and I’m getting these entries in my log file with your client …well, they don’t seem to harm, but just to let you know:

Just want to report UTF songs name doesn’t display correctly in window title:

also is it possible to implement sorting songs order with clicking column headers such as “Title” or “#” instead of the default seems only based on “Artist”? An option to select track no, artist or titles would also be fine.

Anyway, thank you so much for provide this wonderful Firefly client!

I had a look at it and found that the font used to display window title doesn’t support unicode, which explains those ugly squares! It was a bit hard to find as this font is defined in the skin paks provided. I’ll change it in the next version to an unicode font. Next version should come before july I hope or else in september.

I’m working on it… when I have time ! Single or multi column sorting should be available in next version (with sort order persisted when closing app).

Is is related to sorting system or do you mean something else ?

Yes, if you implement multi column sorting then no need. 🙂

Hi Caribou,

For now I only want to thank you for this wounderful piece of software. I removed iTunes some time ago and this is a more then appropriated replacement! Light and fast. I like it a lot!

This realy is some good piece of software 🙂

it handles 30k items easily, haven’t seen a client that can
handle this much songs so good as Firefly Client!

multi column sorting would be neat!

Also, is there a way to embed this in a web browser? if so, that would be nice!

So, I am trying to use this app to access my mt-daapd library at home from my office at work.

I have Rendesvous Proxy setup, and SSH tunneling to port 3689 set up in Putty. I know it is working because I can get to the mt-daapd configuration page using the web browser, by typing . Port 3689 on my router is closed.

When I start Firfly Client, I go to “New Library” and fill in “Test: as the name for the new library, put “localhost” in and leave the port as-is. It then prompts for a password, so I enter in “******”.

Doing so brings up an “Unable to connect to the server error” and it says “Cause: Unable to connect. Not found (status=404)”

Any ideas? I can access the library using other machines at home, both using iTunes and XBMC, so I know it is working. I also get access using Crossfire on Firefox, but that is not ideal.
