I think some users will probably prefer the old skipping, where anyone can skip after a certain amount of time. It shouldn't be too much work to make this configurable to select between the two.

I am new to mopidy so I am sorry if this is a dumb problem.

I installed mopidy and the mopidy-party extension.

After running mopidy I can see that it is enabled via mopidy config

...
[party]
enabled = true
...

I go to the root of the mopidy http server and see the following

When clicking on the link for party I get a http 404. So I am wondering where am I supposed to see this extension so that I can interact with it?

I looked through your code and noticed here that it looks like the path gets registered as /party which is where I am getting the 404 so I am confused why this isn't working.

Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Hi.
Thanks for your work! I really like the idea, also the voting system (lol).
But i think that i will enjoy even more this if you put lyrics (if synchronized better of course, if not... well amazing anyway).

With my friends and family we like to sign a lot when we get together, so... for us that will be a lot of fun.

Thanks!

Hi,
It would be great if mopidy-party could display artist and album details for search results. Currently I am using Google Music and mopidy-party only displays the track title, making things quite confusing.

This plugin seems to do some conversion on Youtube links, the Youtube backend does not like.

Please vendorize a copy of the version of Mopidy.js you support instead of using /mopidy/mopidy.min.js as bundled by Mopidy.

Mopidy's bundled copy of Mopidy.js will be removed in Mopidy 3.0. For background information, please read mopidy/mopidy#1460.

I've been looking to implement this type of party feature for a while and was excited when I found this.

However, spotify does not seem to work in mopidy=party, but works in other front ends, am I doing something wrong?

(I'm going to create a bunch of issues for enhancements that I'd like to see, none of them are problems with mopidy-party. Let me know if you're interested and I'll try to work on some)

I think it would be cool to have separate artist, album, and song search results. Other frontends do this but they are generally built for desktop use so there is more space (moped doesnt handle it very well on mobile).

One way to do it would be to have tabs for each in the search results. So the current result list is basically multiplied by 3, and you just select which list you want to view.

Most likely a very simple problem,

As to my knowledge I've installed Mopidy-Party correctly, but when I run it and try to connect via a browser at 192.168.0.34:6680/party/ it simply comes up with 'can't connect' and 'refused to connect'

Pretty much a complete beginner so I figure it's an easy fix

Cheers !

It might be nice to be able to search a particular backend, as I've noticed that some services flood the search results at present (mainly lastfm).

#I think should change the operation of the application to be really effective.
-The control of play/pause button should have it only the host.
-Pressing play button player random contents of multimedia folder selected in mopidy and includes user requests.

Sincerely

When scrolling through music selections, browser text box should stay visible at the top. Also, if possible, when entering text in the search bar, display results without having to hit 'enter'. Additionally, iif text box is cleared, all results should be visible without hitting 'enter'.

Small support question: when I add [party] to mopidy.conf, party is not displayed on the mopidy web interface. Is there a specific place to put the [party] config for changes to be made available?

Thanks! This is exactly what I've been looking for for a long time!

It would be great to be able to search and browse local songs as well as online backends, so mopidy-party could be used without an internet connection.

Hi, I was thinking it would be nice to have artist info in the now playing area, as that info is often useful.

Shape of my Heart by Sting (4:40)
rather than
Shape of My Heart by (4:40)

It's only a small modification in controller.js from what I can tell, but I'm not qualified enough to help you with that, sorry 😉

Thanks!

Hi,
Unless I'm missing something, I don't see how to see the queue. Only the number of enqueued items.
Most people at a party would expect to be able to see what is lined up to play next when deciding what music to add to the queue, I think.
Thanks!

Add a simple volume bar that is you can toggle by a config variable. The persons you are dealing the music with isn't in a big party or anything a volume bar can be very helpful to keep a good volume that everyone likes.

Do you think it would be difficult to adapt mopidy-party for the following us case ?

Alice, Bob and Carol want to listen to music together and agree to choose the music played one song at a time in rotation. They each choose their songs, either on separate devices (eg. phones that have access to the web interface), or by passing the device to each other in rotation. A kind of slot based approach.

Whenever I play a song and then pause it, the music stops. But when I press the button again, it does not continue playing.
