I got more than enough TTML files, I didn't reply to most people due to time constraints but I saved them all. Thanks. However I'm still looking for SRT lyric files, if you have some, please send them to @FoedusDiscussion

Something is coming ... 👀

Hi everyone,

P.S.: lightsummer233's fork of Accord can be downloaded in @light_summer

An interesting read for audiophiles:

I've since learnt that article contains nonsense, please read https://people.xiph.org/~xiphmont/demo/neil-young.html instead

Hi everyone,

this is just a reminder that we do not have accounts for United Software (or Akane Foundation) or Gramophone on other platforms. Only this channel+group and our GitHub at AkaneTan/Gramophone are related to us.

Cheers,

for anyone waiting for Gramophone Material 3 Expressive...

As of now, I really don't want to

(pic from Google Material Design guidelines)

I want to point out a few things considering the high number of downvotes:

1. The current M3 Expressive concepts are not refined yet. Some issues I found in this example:
- There's no space for other buttons left (sleep timer, repeat, shuffle, cast, etc.)
- "Playing your mix" text has almost no contrast and is hardly readable.
- Album cover must be cropped for that design to work. Some people already get mad when rounding the edges, a design which fundamentally crops the album covers will make many people mad.
- The song noscript font is too wide, for real song noscripts with more than 6 letters it will just keep scrolling forever.
- The squiggly progress weight aren't consistent with notification player.

And personally, I just don't like the totally oversized buttons.

2. The resources for M3 Expressive apps are still releasing, as the announcement was rather recent. Even if I wanted to redesign today, I'd need to wait a while until the tooling is more stable and refined.

3. Just because I don't plan to do a full expressive redesign at the moment doesn't mean I won't integrate any good elements of it, nor that there will be no further redesigns. Google, too, said M3 Expressive is an extension of the M3 design system, not a replacement.
