gmusicbrowser song notification in Gajim

Posted on Mardi, juillet 22nd, 2008 by Mushiro 1 Comment Comments

This howto will let you configure gmusicbrowser and Gajim to display the song you’re currently listening to in your Gajim status message.

Configure gmusicbrowser

There’s nothing really difficult here.

  1. open the Configuration window,
  2. go to the Plugins tab,
  3. make sure the « Now playing » plugin is checked on the left panel list,
  4. insert in the field command the command:
    gajim-remote change_status online %a-%t

Configure Gajim

Just make sure that the command gajim-remote is available in your path, and that remote_control is set to the value « Activated » in the Advanced Configuration Editor of Gajim (« Advanced » tab in Preferences).

That’s all, that should do the trick.

NB.: I’m currently using gmusicbrowser 1.0.1 and Gajim 0.12.1.4-svn.
