Jinzora

Paul Westbrook | 29 August, 2005 20:31

I installed Jinzora today.  It looks like it has promise, especially since netjuke is not supported anymore.  (In fact, the web site is not running anymore.)

There are a few things that I like about it are:

  • It can automatically transcode music to support slower connections.
  • It can display a list of similar tracks

There are some things that don't work with it.

  • I was only able to import music when the meta data was read from the folder structure, and not from the tags.
  • You can not remove all of the tracks from the database from within the interface.  I had to drop the tabes, and the recreate them again.
  • I have not been able to figure out how to change the interface.  I set it up in the install wizard, and I am not able to change it.

netjuke and PHP5

Paul Westbrook | 29 August, 2005 10:15

I wanted to get some streams from my netjuke installation, and when I tried I got some php parse errors.  I am sure that this is happening now because I am using PHP5, which I wasn't using before upgrading to Fedora Core 4.

I will look into fixing these problems, but if it takes too much time, I will look into installing Jinzora.
