Soma - a dialog internet radio player
For help/usage see soma -h
Soma started off as a way to play .pls playlists from SomaFM but can
also play .ram playlists too. In fact any url playable by mplayer
using the -playlist option should work. Extra stations can be added
in ~/.soma/stations.conf (up to 200).
Soma uses mplayer to play the streams and aplay to detect cards for
mixer so mplayer and alsa-utils need to be installed.
Key commands supported in status window:
( Volume -5
) Volume +5
1 - 0 Volume 10%, 20%, ... 100% (saved)
Space Pause/Play
d Disconnect/Reconnect
a Add schedule
b Station browser
m Mute toggle
s Scheduler
q Quit
There are 3 config files:
~/.soma/themes/*rcrc Specify the dialog colours.
~/.soma/options.conf A few extra options.
~/.soma/stations.conf User station list.
There are also:
/etc/soma/options.conf Default options.
/etc/soma/themes/*rc Dialog configs.
/etc/soma/stations.conf Default station list.
Stations should be added to the user list like this:
Name,URL
You cannot use a comma , in the name or URL
I would be glad of any exra radio urls emailed to me so I can add to
the default list.
NOTES:
The Jack and NAS options for output device will only work if MPlayer is
built against them.
When changing/selecting soundcard output device you must press space on
the option. Just scrolling down and hitting Enter does nothing.
BUGS:
Soma may induce the side effects of general well-being and profound
spiritual satisfaction.

REAL BUGS:
Some people might find screen messes up the dialog colours. If you
have this line in ~/.screenrc:
attrcolor b ".I"
You might want to comment it out and try again as it seems to turn off
the bold attribute.
Please mail me at dave@dawoodfall.net for new radio urls or bug
reports etc.
