The chair is dpm. Information about MeetBot at http://wiki.ubuntu.com/meetingology. 12:02 12:02 Available commands: action commands idea info link nick 12:02 o/ 12:02 popey, \o 12:02 let me pull the blueprint 12:02 https://blueprints.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+spec/appdev-1403-scopes-documentation 12:03 here you go.. 12:03 Music App links:- 12:03 Bugs: https://bugs.launchpad.net/music-app/+bugs 12:03 Reviews: https://code.launchpad.net/music-app/+activereviews 12:03 Blueprint: https://blueprints.launchpad.net/ubuntu-phone-commons/+spec/coreapps-1404-music-dev 12:03 General Links:- 12:03 \o/ 12:03 Milestones: https://launchpad.net/ubuntu-phone-coreapps/+milestones 12:03 Burndown: http://status.ubuntu.com/coreapps-14.04/ 12:03 Blockers: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Touch/CoreApps/Blockers 12:03 12:04 yeah, I think rather mine was spam, as I pasted the wrong BP... 12:04 anyway, any updates from you guys on the work items from last week? 12:05 don't think there is any change in the state of work items for me but I have been working on various things 12:05 the Toolbar now uses the Panel component in preparation for the bottom edge 12:05 I think either dpm or popey needs to test my MR that drops QtPowerd 12:06 vthompson, i was going to wait until the fix for the Qt events not being run with the screen off before testing? 12:06 i had a discussion with t1mp and kalikiana regarding how we will do the bottom edge and there is a bug tracking a feature we'll need here https://bugs.launchpad.net/music-app/+bug/1247865 12:07 ahayzen, we could. But removing us from the lifecycle should make music stop within a few seconds 12:07 vthompson: happy to, link me up! 12:07 vthompson, hopefully we'll be moving to the new media-hub soon so then we definitely won't need powerd :) 12:07 popey, ok, will add a WI for you with the link to the MP 12:07 popey: https://code.launchpad.net/~vthompson/music-app/remove-qtpowerd/+merge/210944 12:08 will test once I finish todays dogfooding 12:08 excellent 12:09 vthompson, how are you getting on with the mediascanner2 migration? Are you blocked by the cover art feature in the bindings? I could not quite figure if it had landed 12:09 I don't think it has, but I'm wondering if some other work can happen in parallel or if it's a blocker 12:09 ahayzen, danielholm, you guys worked the URI handler more than I did. Does it seem possible to add a URI scheme handler for playing/search for an album (album://) or artist (artist://)? 12:10 vthompson, i think it should just let me check the code again... 12:10 dpm, I don't think I'm blocked at the moment. I need to check again to see if they have the Qt bindings landed. I'll start working that again this weekend 12:11 vthompson, yep at the moment we are only accepting file:// so we can add in use cases for album:// artist:// :) 12:11 ahayzen, I assumed the same--that's what I told James H from the Mediascanner2.0 team 12:12 vthompson, ok, I'll move the WI to next week, then, does that sound ok? 12:13 dpm, that does--but I assume it'll take awhile to get implemented and fully tested. But we can keep pushing the WI back as we go 12:13 ack 12:14 popey, any word from Andrea on convergent designs? Do we have a spec that we can hand over to the guys? 12:14 Also, I know ricmm from the media-hub team has recently started putting tracklist/playlist support into the media-hub. So we can start working that or see if ricmm will assist to help him test 12:14 he was working on them this week I believe. 12:14 * popey pings him a mail 12:15 popey, can you CC me on that one and I'll chip in? We need to get the designs asap, otherwise there won't be time to implement them 12:15 ya 12:16 cool, thanks 12:16 done 12:16 dpm, popey, So I know Andrea had a Google doc with his original design. Maybe you could have him update that and the team can comment? 12:17 +1 12:17 yes, we'll make sure the doc is up to date 12:17 good point 12:17 +1 12:18 In terms of the other MRs, this one is blocked by the Qt5.2 event swallowing bug: https://code.launchpad.net/~vthompson/music-app/proceeds-to-next/+merge/211851 12:19 ahayzen, has a MR that is very close to landing for reorder: https://code.launchpad.net/~andrew-hayzen/music-app/reorder-support-001/+merge/202172 12:19 very close \o/ 12:19 And this MR is free to review: https://code.launchpad.net/~vthompson/music-app/fix-console-errors/+merge/212832 12:20 I'll take that one 12:20 ok, the other point that I had today, and as part of the core app days, we've been running an initiative to have different tasks of categories to focus on. You already know the tag we use for 'bitesize' bugs to make it easy for new contributors to pick bugs and start coding... 12:21 Enter bacon-dogfooding 12:21 IT'S BACON!!!! 12:21 sounds delicious 12:21 (sorry) 12:21 hah lol 12:21 We've had Jono Bacon dogfood some of the core apps and give us feedback :) 12:21 and we've collected those as bugs 12:22 https://bugs.launchpad.net/music-app/+bugs?field.tag=bacon-dogfood 12:22 ooo we have 8 12:22 these the ones for Music, there are more for other apps (mostly calendar) 12:22 I'll try to finish up this one: https://bugs.launchpad.net/music-app/+bug/1297160 12:22 awesome 12:22 rather than big features, they're polish and usability bugs 12:23 What about this one: https://bugs.launchpad.net/music-app/+bug/1297169 12:23 that are relatively small but have a big impact 12:23 let me have a look... 12:23 I like the idea of hiding the recent when there is no items... what about also listing the Albums on the Music start tab and allow the user to scroll vertically on that tab? 12:24 * popey hugs click-buddy 12:24 that sounds like a good idea 12:24 popey, is click-buddy working with the music-app again? 12:24 dunno, it built a click package 12:24 vthompson, sounds good to me, go for it 12:24 so.. lets see 12:24 hah 12:25 Along those same lines, do we want to try to turn the horizontal list views on the Music tab into a more "carousel" style? 12:25 It would save some space and might be nice visually 12:25 vthompson, that would be very cool :) 12:26 ooh! 12:26 would match the scopes 12:27 how would that work on desktop though? 12:27 vthompson, I think it would make sense, but I'd perhaps start the discussion now and defer the implementation after the release, what do you think? 12:27 more or less, I'm envisioning that we don't hide the titles when they aren't focused 12:27 dpm, either way would work. Implementation wise I think it'd be a simple pathview 12:28 hmm, tried your branch vthompson 12:28 popey, It'd work the same way on the desktop and might even make more sense because the 'clumsiness' of scrolling horizontally on the desktop might be forgiven if it's a carousel effect 12:28 no, click-buddy didnt work 12:28 http://paste.ubuntu.com/7162423/ 12:29 i guess I need to futz the plugin in somewhere? 12:29 popey, yep and sergiusens' hack doesn't appear to work anymore 12:29 Yea, copy the old lib folder from the previous release over 12:29 BUT also remove the qtpowerd lib 12:29 vthompson, ok, in that case, from what you're saying, I'd suggest to put it in the list of post-14.04 features. Even if it's an easy implementation, convergence, mediascanner2 and polish will be big tasks enough to keep you guys busy :) 12:29 ok 12:30 * popey does that now 12:30 popey, we would run this before http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/7162425/ 12:30 dpm, sounds good 12:30 ok, great 12:30 this is wht i've been doing recently to test but i don't mind trashing my click stuff http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/7162428/ 12:31 ok 12:31 but as vthompson said remove ur qtpowerd lib :) 12:31 i have, and rebooted 12:31 time passes... 12:32 ahayzen, ah, I've done something similar to test without confinement by just pushing the source tree to the device, but I see you're more hardcore by pushing directly into the /usr location :) 12:32 oh also.. any idea why i don't see artwork in the app? 12:32 http://popey.com/~alan/phablet/device-2014-03-27-123227.png 12:32 dpm, yeah lol just replacing whatever the current one is 12:32 :) 12:32 vs http://popey.com/~alan/phablet/device-2014-03-27-123248.png 12:33 ok, music playing... 12:33 popey, think there is a difference between what data grilo is giving us to what the music scope gets 12:33 popey, I've been getting the same for the last few months 12:33 popey, i'm hoping it'll be resolved when we move to mediascanner? 12:33 popey, is it not because the scope uses mediascanner2 and we use grilo? 12:33 ^^ 12:33 ah 12:33 okay 12:33 i.e. mediascanner1 12:33 I filed a bug against mediascanner : https://bugs.launchpad.net/mediascanner/+bug/1261059 12:34 * popey adds "That'll be fixed when mediascanner2 lands" to his "shit canonical people say" tumblr ㋛ 12:34 I assume it should be fixed by mediascanner2.0 12:34 vthompson: with your branch music is still playing when blanked 12:34 popey, cool I got the same results 12:35 ship it! 12:35 let's +1 it then? 12:36 dpm, popey should we try to fit some of the bacon-dogfooding bugs into 14.04 as there's time? 12:36 Or should we wait for designs/etc 12:36 Maybe Andrea should try to tackle how those bugs should be fixed? 12:36 vthompson, yes, that's what I was going to say, I'd like to tackle these bugs as soon as possible, although we'll be blocking on some of them 12:37 +1 12:37 We'll get in touch with Andrea today and we'll get the design doc in place 12:37 k, and we'll move forward from there 12:37 in any case, if you guys have been working on a particular feature for long and want a bit of a change, it'd be good if you could pick your favourite bugs from https://bugs.launchpad.net/music-app/+bugs?field.tag=bacon-dogfood and assign them to yourselves if you're interested 12:38 if you see they require designs, feel free to add the needs-design tag too 12:38 k 12:38 cool 12:39 excellent 12:39 ok, so BP updates and bacon was all that I had from my side of things :) 12:40 anything else you guys wanted to discuss? 12:40 I don't have anything 12:40 nothing from me 12:40 ok, cool, so on that note, let's wrap it up and squash some bugs ;) 12:40 \o/ 12:40 happy hacking guys :) 12:40 thanks a lot guys! 12:41 thanks everyone, happy hacking! 12:41 (don't forget to end the meeting dpm) :D 12:41 \m/ 12:41 #endmeeting Generated by MeetBot 0.1.5 (http://wiki.ubuntu.com/meetingology)
