Revised capitalisation patch and bug fix
While playing music today, I noticed a bug in display of album names. They were displayed without capitalisation changes. The problem is in md_pp_capitalize(). It creates a local variable called mdalbum instead of modifying md.album. Here are two patches: one to fix that bug, and another to apply on top of that, instead of the first one I sent a couple of hours ago. Both against svn version 282.

Thanks for catching that.

There is a small problem with that one, though: If you don't use the C locale, string.letters may also contain non-ASCII characters and then "s in string.letters" fails for any Unicode string. In the present case this means it fails always. This seems to be one of the cases where Python's unicode support is still lacking... Cheers, Jörg

Yes, I hadn't thought of that. Does string.punctuation suffer from the same problem? Are there punctuation characters in Unicode outside the ASCII range? (That question may reveal that I don't fully understand the problem...) I'm going to leave the patch in the version I run, though, as all my .oggs have ASCII tags at the moment. :) -- Russell Steicke -- Fortune says: There is no such thing as fortune. Try again.

No, you're question is fully right and in fact, I had the same idea. Maybe a better solution indeed would be to replace the logic in that way. I also don't know, though, whether string.punctuation lies always in the ASCII range (but it's definitely more probable).

I guess it's more that you run with a C locale. The PyTone version in the SVN repository internally uses Unicode strings for all tags. And this definitely fails:
u"123" in chr(130)

I now checked in a patch based on the use of string.punctuation. Wheres this is not optimal neither, it should still work most of the time (tm). Btw, did you test the SVN version a bit. I'm really interested in some feedback, because so far there was not so much... Anyway, I'd like to release the new code rather soon. Jörg

I can give it another try next week and test the SVN version ...

Hi Jörg, as promised I tested the latest svn-checkout and I have to say that there are not so much changes regardings the problems I have :-/ OGG-format is now supported indeed but the parser is still not able to read special characters like á, é, í, ñ (2.3.0 was prefectly able to do this). The chars are not shown in the filessystem list nor in the taginfo. I'm using UTF-8 on my systems btw. ... It seems also that capitalized letters after a / or ! (did not run against other letters but still possible of course) will be converted automatically to small letters. I'm commented out #postprocessors = capitalize strip_leading_article add_decade_tag since I used "tags_capitalize = false" in 2.3.0 ... What's add_decade_tag btw? The biggest no-go for me is still the handling of playlists :( Of course they are supported internally but I simply *need* an export function to be able to use the playlists I create on my mp3-player as well. Stop. Thank you for your great work and efforts Stefan -- Stefan Wimmer <swimmer@xs4all.nl>
Hmpf - I forgot completely that the bug with my second soundcard (https://www.luga.de/pipermail/pytone-users/2006/000357.html) still persists as well :-/ Sorry about that Stefan ========================================================= My very personal wishlist for Pytone - just ignore it ;-) ========================================================= * Pause between tracks * Some sort of replaygain * Extended search function -- Stefan Wimmer <swimmer@xs4all.nl>
