I've just finished up version 1.2.2 for Auditorium - a fast local music player powered by Ratatui.

Since my last update, I've added a few new fun features:

  • Optional MPRIS support to allow global access to the underlying music player (pause, play, seek, view album art, and more from your desktop environment!)
  • Album/track sorting based on track number metadata
  • Switched from FfProbe to ID3 crate for huge load time decreases
  • Optional cover art display
  • Made lots of efficiency tweaks to take down CPU usage to < 2% while still running at 60 fps (fast TUI is a good TUI)

Lots of things I still would like to add (and a few issues already underway), so I hope to find time to improve more when I can.

Cheers

actually databases have problems, sqlite and more advanced too, because precise enough file locking is usually not implemented for network filesystems

Good point. I remember a long time ago encountering a problem with Access shared over samba, because the system time of the "server" was off (bad mobo battery). I also found that the mechanical engineers were running Limewire on the server. (I was just working a summer job doing metal fab work, and they new I just started tech school for IT and asked me to look at it).
