  • How do you use a chromebook?
    2 projects | /r/chromeos | 30 Apr 2023
    Not that I need to prove anything, but for anyone curious, here's a composition I created using the music notation software I help develop and support on my Chromebook. If you hit the play button on the composition, you'll hear the multitrack recording I created on my Chromebook as well, with my students singing the various parts. The piece was created for my online course teaching counterpoint, developed completely on my Chromebook. Here is a video from my most recent - the video is done from the Chromebook and the software managing the multicamera layout and screen share is software I developed on my Chromebook. And here is the online community I manage from my Chromebook.
  • Crash when attempting to place a note in place of, or simply select, a particular rest.

    Sorry to hear you're having trouble! Definitely, we'd need the MSCZ file to be able to investigate. Normally we ask that people first post to the official Support forum on musescore.org to get confirmation before opening an issue on GitHub to report a bug formally, but it sounds like you've got things pretty well figured out in terms of having precise steps to reproduce the crash reliably, so I would encourage you to just go straight to the issue tracker on GitHub - https://github.com/musescore/MuseScore/issues
  • My Chromebook can't open MuseScore anymore since the last update

    If you installed some way other by downloading the AppImage from musescore.org and running it with the "install" option, you should remove whatever version you have now - third party builds are often problematic - and get the official version.

    I install it trought commands and not from musescore.org because I have a 32 bits Chromebook. So I don't know what to do. The problem is that I can remove it. It doesn't show me the "delete" button. Even trought Terminal.

  • How come Musescore 4 isn’t a GPL violation, and is their mixed-proprietary model a long-term threat to other GPL software?
    3 projects | /r/opensource | 21 Jan 2023
    According to this thread, MuseSounds isn’t even a separate process, but it’s loaded dynamically. That settles the shared-memory discussion since they operate as one program in a shared address space.

    I looked into the source, and from my perspective it looks like the only purpose of the dll API (it's inside libhandler.h) is to avoid releasing the source. There is only ONE implementation, the dll is ONLY used by Muse Score, and there is also no documentation on this API... The lib, MuseSamplerCoreLib.dll, is installed to Windows/System32. The sample format is proprietary I guess, but internally uses the open source opus codec (so sample data can be extracted by just using opusdec.exe from opus-codec.org) Here is some feedback from the team on the issue: https://github.com/musescore/MuseScore/issues/15706 https://musescore.org/en/node/340466

    Under the GPL they don't owe you specifications. Under the GPL they don't owe you documentation. Under the GPL they don't owe you a build how-to or integration instructions. Per the GPL, all they owe you is the code, and that's here. If the interface you are talking about is in that repo, then they've met their obligation. The GPL doesn't say they have to make it easy to use their interface or explain what it does, it says they owe you the code that implements it.
  • Show HN: PipeScore – FOSS Bagpipe Notation Software
    2 projects | news.ycombinator.com | 9 Jan 2023
    I've been working on some version of this since May 2019. It is a web app that allows writing out music for the Highland bagpipe.

    While it uses the same notation as normal music, bagpipe music tends to have a greater focus on gracenotes (embellishments). Most music software does not deal with this very well (e.g. MuseScore just displays a list of every single possible embellishment, of which there are hundreds [1]). PipeScore instead takes advantage of the fact that the form of many embellishments is dependent on the notes adjacent to it, allowing it to reduce the number of options down to just 13.
