Songbird 1.4.1 Installer

// December 22nd, 2009

As promised, here are the Songbird 1.4.1 installers.

Songbird 1.4.1’s main focus has been on adding new device support, CD rip support, and a new Feather/skin. We’ve included more format/codec support out of the box, improved the media management user experience, and continue to work on performance, footprint, and stability. We continue to listen to your feedback on Get SatisfactionBugzilla, and of course right here on our blog. Please let us know what’s important to you.

You can either remove the old installation and do a fresh install or upgrade the existing one. Please leave feedback on your experience. :)

    Thanks for compiling them, it would seem as though the official getsongbird source is down for 32bit Linux users attempting to download it.

  2. Yunkwan says:

    Hi, I really appreciate that you made songbird deb packages for us!!

    You know, the font hinting problem still occur on linux platform.

    Would you please recompile with this “–use-system-cairo” option? This can fix the issue.

    Thank you so much.

    Thank you so much for the quick packaging! The 64-bit deb installed seemlessly. I did a sudo apt-get purge of the old songbird.

    Comments/suggestions:
    On the first load I received the following message:
    “Updating Library

    Rebuilding library sorting data…”
    I think that this message could be improved. It is kind of repetitive (updating library AND rebuilding library AND sorting data) and ambiguous — what does “sorting data” mean? Does it mean organizing songs? or all data?

    I needed to remove 26,000 songs.. this took about 30 seconds. It would have been nice for there to be a status bar.

    I don’t see why I can’t do other things when importing music or when getting album artwork. Songbird just shows the progress of those tasks and doesn’t let you do anything.

    tools>get album art
    I did not expect this to get album art for ALL of my music.. it should state this, and perhaps offer an option to get album artwork for just one song (sure this is possible with the right click, but I don’t think it would hurt to have a menu option as well).

    command line
    I can’t figure out how to map a key to “next track” “play” “pause” etc. I think that songbird for linux should come natively with some command line options.

    Thank you thank you thank you!!!

    Thanks!

  6. Seb says:

    why can’t this just be on the official songbird page? or in an official repo…. linux for human beings… right… :(

    but thanks so much for doing this! u rock

  7. steve says:

    Thank you for the installer! its so much nicer than what i had to do to get songbird 1.2 working lol

  8. [...] descargar Songbird desde este enlace, la versión 1.4.1 está disponible en paquete .deb gracias a Skyzim y para versiones de 32 y 64 bits. Gracias a la gente de get deb está listo el paquete 1.4.2 para [...]

  9. minime says:

    it still doesent work for me :’( it wont open, it just loads and then it dissapears, what am i doing wrong? i have ubuntu 9.10

  10. Steve says:

    hey, just wondering, is there an RPM install for distros such as openSUSE available or am i SOL until someone who is a part of the pacman repository creates it?

  11. Erich says:

    Hmm nope sorry, no RPM installer. I only build for Debian-based systems because I run Ubuntu.

  12. Edward says:

    Nice one Skyzim, I am new to ubuntu and have been searching for a installer (which i later found what i was looking for was .deb) version of Songbird for a week now. You guys have take away all my troubles, cheers.

  13. Edward says:

    *taken – I do apologise.

  14. It is not installing for me on Ubuntu 9.04. Back in 9.10, it just wouldn’t work when I turned on my computer one day. I spent the entire day trying to get it to work, but to no avail. When I try to launch Songbird installed from the deb here, the terminal outputs “*** glibc detected *** ././songbird-bin: double free or corruption (out): 0xb2d1f220 ***

    I have switched to Rhythmbox, and it is very nice, although I miss some of Songbird’s add-ons (Mediaflow, specifically), although I do not miss Songbird’s slow speed. Rhytmbox is fast!

    Hi,

    What about the new 1.4.3 DEB package?

    Thank you

  16. Erich says:

    Joseph Schwenker: Those errors appear to show a problem with your gstreamer installation. Perhaps reinstalling would remedy the problem.

    Marc: I’m very busy with schoolwork at the moment, but I’ll do my best to get it up in a decent amount of time.

  17. Marko says:

    Thanks, just installed the new version 1.4.1. it works fine.

  18. Vladimir says:

    Thanks for this! Very useful! ;)

  20. Renato says:

    Songbird 1.4.3 installer pleaaase!

  21. Erich says:

    To update 1.4.1 to 1.4.3, simply go to Help > Check for Updates in the Songbird menus to trigger an update; this will download 1.4.3 automatically.

    I would like to include it in the next PureOS release and it would be better with a 1.4.3 DEB package…

    Thanks
