xmms: sort by track number
Hi. i wonder if anyone can lend a hand with this.
I'd like to be able to sort a playlist in xmms by track number (i.e. from the ogg vorbis tag info). It seems as though this patch http://sources.zabbadoz.net/patches/xmms/ does exactly that. Only problem is, I don't know what to do with it. Presumably I will need to get the xmms source and build it myself, and that will involve this .diff file somewhere in the process. But besides that I'm lost. Thank you Ian |
Ok, I'm going to reply to my own post as I've managed to work this one out.
Copy the .diff file into the same directory as you have unpacked xmms-1.2.7.tar.gz (say ~/Packages). Then execute the command: $ patch -p0 < patch-file-name.diff You should get a message telling you that a number of files have been successfully patched. Then just ./configure, make, make install as usual. Now when you right-click on the playlist you get the added option of sort by Path + Track number. Fantastic! Ian |
