DESCRIPTION

ways to view your audio library, as well as support for Internet radio
and audio feeds. It has extremely flexible metadata tag editing and

ALBUM COVERS
Album covers should be put in the same directory as the songs they
apply to, and have "folder", "front", or "cover" in their filenames. If
you want to store multiple albums in the same directory but keep dis?
tinct cover images, the name of the appropriate image file must contain
the labelid tag value, e.g. COCX-32760 cover.jpg.
TIED TAGS
Many places in Quod Libet allow you to use "tied tags". Tied tags are
two tag names joined together with a "~" like "title~version" or
"album~part". Tied tags result in "nice" displays even when one of the
tags is missing; for example, "title~version" will result in Title -
Version when a version tag is present, but only Title when one isn't.
You can tie any number of tags together.
SEARCH SYNTAX
All of Quod Libet's search boxes support advanced searches of the fol?
lowing forms:
tag = value
tag = !value
tag = "value"
tag = /value/
tag = &(value1, value2)
tag = |(value1, value2)
!tag = value
|(tag1 = value1, tag2 = value2)
&(tag1 = value1, tag2 = value2)
#(numerictag < value)
#(numerictag = value)
#(numerictag > value)
The 'c' postfix on strings or regular expressions makes the search
case-sensitive. Numeric values may be given as integers, floating-point
numbers, MM:SS format, or simple English, e.g. "3 days", "2 hours".
See http://code.google.com/p/quodlibet/wiki/Guide_Searching.
All internal tags begin with a ~ character. Non-numeric internal tags
are ~base? name, ~dirname, ~filename, ~format, ~length, ~people, and
~rating. Numeric internal tags are ~#added, ~#bitrate, ~#disc, ~#last?
played, ~#laststarted, ~#length, ~#mtime, ~#playcount, ~#skipcount, and
~#track.
See http://code.google.com/p/quodlibet/wiki/Guide_InternalTags.
RENAMING FILES
Quod Libet allows you to rename files based on their tags. In some
cases you may wish to alter the filename depending on whether some tags
are present or missing, in addition to their values. A common pattern
might be
<tracknumber>. <title~version>
You can use a '|' to only text when a tag is present:
<tracknumber|<tracknumber>. ><title~version>
You can also specify literal text to use if the tag is missing by
adding another '|':
<album|<album>|No Album> - <title>
See http://code.google.com/p/quodlibet/wiki/Guide_Renaming.
AUDIO BACKENDS
Quod Libet uses GStreamer for audio playback. It tries to read your
GConf GStreamer configuration, but if that fails it falls back to
osssink. You can change the pipeline option in ~/.quodlibet/config to
use a different sink, or pass options to the sink. For example, you
might use esdsink or alsasink device=hw:1.
See http://code.google.com/p/quodlibet/wiki/Guide_AudioBackends.
FILES
~/.quodlibet/songs
A pickled Python dict of cached metadata. Deleting this file
will remove all songs from your library.
~/.quodlibet/config
Quod Libet's configuration file. This file is overwritten when
Quod Libet exits.
~/.quodlibet/current
A "key=value" file containing information about the currently
playing song.
~/.quodlibet/control
A FIFO connected to the most-recently-started instance of the
program. --next, --previous, etc., use this to control the
player.
~/.quodlibet/plugins/
Put plugins (from
http://code.google.com/p/quodlibet/wiki/Guide_Plugins) here.
~/.quodlibet/browsers/
Put custom library browsers here.
