Introducing pleezer: a Deezer Connect player

[roderickvd]

D'oh, bug caused loud pops & clicks when changing tracks or seeking. v0.17.2 coming right up.

[Tim Curtis]

Released v0.17.1 with some refinements to dithering and noise shaping.

Nice :-)

[roderickvd]

Sorry but not sorry for the dynamics, I'm optimizing as we go

Next version will have this in the README:

Code:

Recommendations by content type:
- Podcasts: Level 0 (pure dither, no shaping)
- Most music (rock, pop, metal, EDM): Level 1-2
- Classical, jazz, ambient: Level 2-3
- Vintage/lo-fi material: Level 0 or 1

With default changed from 3 to 2.

If you still got time to change it for 9.3.3, then I think --noise-shaping 2 is a better default middle ground.

No prob I'll make the changes.

For the technically inclined, this is the frequency response of the various noise shaping profiles:

Hello everyone,
there is the possibility to detect when the Deezer render is connected and is in play or stop.
I would really like it to be able to control a program external to moOde (PeppyMeter): similarly to what happens with the Spotify render, when it is connected and is in play state, the content of

/var/local/www/currentsong.txt

is the following:

Code:

file=Spotify Active
outrate=PCM 16/44.1 kHz, 2ch

and when it is in a pause or stop state:

Code:

file=Spotify Active
outrate=Not playing

It could be something like:

Code:

file=Deezer Active
outrate=PCM 16/44.1 kHz, 2ch

and

Code:

file=Deezer Active
outrate=Not playing

Thanks in advance for what you can and will do.
Best regards and thanks,
Francesco
