After upgrading to natty and discovering Banshee I basically stopped YouAmp development as Banshee basically fulfilled all my requirements and bringing YouAmp on par to Banshee feature-wise would cost me at one year of work – fulltime.
But recently I got more and more annoyed by Banshees slow startup-times and since I wanted to hack on python again anyway I dug out the youamp sources again. So these are the news in the YouAmp version available in my PPA right now:
- SoundMenu integration (only tested on Natty)
- Shares cover-art library with Banshee, to avoid duplication
- Updated translation from Launchpad
So in case you are looking for something more lightweight than Banshee, you can take a look…
