PianoBooster version 0.6.4rc and qmake

[CarlM]

Hi Louis,

I built pb with: cd src / qmake / make / make install.
After the following changes in the install section of the pianobooster.pro the make install works fine.

When I compared the final binaries of cmake and qmake I determined file size (after strip command) differences.

cmake: 629764 (519812) bytes
qmake: 432238 (364180) bytes

I will test the 2 binaries later with my midi interface and keyboard.

# install

unix {
 
   isEmpty( PREFIX ) { PREFIX = /usr/local }

   target.path = $$PREFIX/bin

   desktop.path = $$PREFIX/share/applications
   desktop.files = pianobooster.desktop

   pixmaps.path = $$PREFIX/share/pixmaps
   pixmaps.files = images/pianobooster.png

   INSTALLS += target desktop pixmaps
}

Thanks for that committed the code. I cannot explain the differences.

Do you mean double clicking in nautilus?

Yes, double clicking in nautilus.

I think that is what you want:

Ok here is what i did:

I added the line

MimeType=audio/midi;

to pianobooster.desktop and a 'sudo update-desktop-database'.

Now, when I right click a .mid/.midi file 'Piano Booster' is included in 'open with'.

Thanks that works, do you know how to get the icon on the nautilus openwith menu?

Sorry have been away for some days.
I did nothing more. When I do a 'open with' in nautilus the file pianobooster.png located in the directory /usr/local/share/pixmaps is displayed as icon.
