Pyjama's Tracks

In any Pyjama version > 0.2.1 Pyjama uses a new track object.

This was necessary since the old track-dicts where very confusing and caused a lot of errors. You can import the new track-object from clGstreamer010: from clGstreamer010 import Track

From now on only track objects can be added to the playlist.

Here a list of fields every track object has to have:

• Track.name
  • Name of this track
• Track.duration
  • Duration of this track in seconds
• Track.numalbum
  • Number of the track in the corresponding album
• Track.id
  • ID of the track
• Track.id3genre
  • space seperated list of id3genres for this track
• Track.album_id
  • ID of the track's album
• Track.album_name
  • name of the track's album
• Track.arist_id
  • ID of the track's artist
• Track.artist_name
  • name of the track's artist
• Track.stream
  • jamendo stream url of this track

There is a new attribute: Track.position_in_playlist is None by default and will be set to an int when the track is actually being played. In pyjama > 0.3 this attribute will be set when the track is being added to a playlist.

The functions clDB.DB.get_multiple_trackinfos() and clDB.DB.get_trackinfos2() now also return Track objects. The new Track object behaves like a dict to calls like Track['name'] but prints out a deprecation warning. You should replace such calls.
