  • Artwork display for CLI music player

    I found kunst for displaying album art while playing music with mpd. Is there a CLI music player that does both (show artwork + playing music)?

    I want my music tab -> tab II to start like this: How can I achieve this? Its two times ncmpcpp & a cover art program called Kunst in the right corner.

    It looks amazing I will definitely give it a try. I've already installed kunst, but I've found it crashes a lot.

    > Yeah making PulseAudio play nice with JACK seems to be tricky.

    for me https://github.com/brummer10/pajackconnect has worked flawlessly... but I've switched to pipewire and I'm not looking back !

  • osx -> linux for personal use (bitwig, vscode, occasional game etc)
    1 project | /r/FindMeADistro | 24 Jan 2021
    Jack + Qjackctl to set things like buffer size has actually been pretty seamless to me using Bitwig. Everything kind of just works once I setup a Pulse Audio -> Jack Bridge via Qjackctl and this script. I can get latency way down low in Bitwig, and then when I'm running normal apps and games the bridge works perfectly. Pipewire is exciting though, it's just pretty new so I haven't seen as much documentation or tools.
