Music Choice like Script Beta

Sorry for the delay, but here it is, the script I was hyping earlier.  It is certainly a beta, and if you can make it better, great!  It is released under the WTFPL license, which if you don’t know what this license is, I suggest you read it.

XBMC Script

XBMC Music Script

XBMC Music Script (click for full size)

If you don’t know what XBMC is, well, go .  XBMC is a media dream, it plays everything, gets tons of data off the internet to make your movies, music, videos, shows, etc easy to find, sort, play, you name it.  I love it!  One thing I thought was missing was a good music player that would show band information, and pictures of the band/singer.  The really cool thing about XBMC is that not only is it open source, but supports Python Scripting!

I am currently finishing up a rather simple script that simply pulls the information from Last.fm, sorts it out, then puts it on the screen for the song that is currently playing.  It will slideshow through all the pictures found, and cycle through the biography of the artist as well.  It will also allow simple controls, play/pause, previous/next, etc.  I still have some cleaning up to do, but hope to release it later this week for testing.  Since it is a script, it will be released open source, and I hope someone with better Python skills than me will clean it up!

RadarLove News

Just wanted to give a quick update, sorry it’s been so quiet.  I’ve been working on RadarLove a bit (and Email Scheduler, more on that later) and have added some pretty cool things, and am working to include a few more.

Here are things currently done, or close to it:

Added a warning overlay (shows current warnings in the radar area)
Added a “Find Radar Site” piece to the settings.  You can now type in your city, state or zip code and it will select the radar for you. (85% done)
Improved the drawing of the images drastically!  Radar now supports full transparency, no more white-outs.  Images are cleaner, crisp, and I also improved loop drawing times, ie the loop will run faster.
Added a setting to change the Status Text Color — 6 choices, no more hard to read blue (unless you want it).
More Code improvements

Planned additions, not yet implemented (percent done):

GPS integration.  Program will pick the radar site based on your gps data. (35% done) 
GPS Location icon.  Will put an icon on the spot of your GPS location, or the location of the city, state you put in. (25% done)
Visual Sat. overlay.  Overlay to show current cloud conditions.  (0% done)
Local Forecasts.  (0% done)

I hope to get this out within the next week or 2.  I will post some screenshots early next week of the new design.  We have had over 8,000 downloads of this thing, but only a handful of donations.  Come on people, give me some incentives! 

Thanks

Email Scheduler Update and Some News

I just wanted to let you know that I have started using nuevasync for my personal push email solution (I do still use the schedule piece of it).  Email scheduler will have one more release, the schedule piece of it will be a final version, and imap idle will be considered an unfinished beta.  I have worked on the connection piece a bit, but have really hit a dead end.  I really want to focus on my other projects (RadarLove, GolfGPS, and a new text message to email program).

I plan on making Email Scheduler open source.  Once I get the website updated to handle an open source project, get permission from a friend that helped on the project, clean up the code enough to make it readable, get my license in order, etc,  it will be available.

FYI, if you haven’t looked at nuevasync.com, you might want to.  It uses the activesync protocol to simulate an exchange server for any imap idle server.  So far, it has worked great, and is using the phone the way it was designed to be used.  The push email feature is not a free service, but is dirt cheap at $25.00/year.

Thanks

Update

Just wanted to let everyone know why I have been so quiet lately. My Verizon Titan died a couple of days ago, and I am in the process of replacing it. In other words, I am smartphoneless. Since the emulators mustly suck, I have to use a real device, and since I don’t have one right now….. I am looking at getting the touch pro. I wish the touch pro 2 was out on Verizon, but of course, they are the last to get anything, then they cripple the shit out of it. So for right now, I am just going to get the touch pro, this will allow me to play with the accelerometer! Anyone have some ideas for it?

Also, the Forum is much better now, check it out.

EmailScheduler 1.0.2beta

Loads of changes, fixes:

One big change is the way I handle seecure sockets, before, I wouldn’t allow accounts that were using unknown, or expired certificates.  However, some users that have their own server may not pay for a legit cert, so this program will accept ALL certificates.  For most users, this shouldn’t be an issue.

Also, I noticed I was trying no matter what to secure the socket, even if you don’t want that.  To make it easy, port 143 is always a NON-secure connection.  All other ports, including 993 ARE secure.  I could have another option for this, and if you bitch to me enough, maybe I will add it, but again, the majority, this should work great.

I am still not fully happy with how I check to make sure the socket is ok, but I think it is better.  Let me know of any other issues.
