Great idea to fork it, and continue development! 😃
I actually forked it myself the other day because there were a few things that were bothering me. My intention was to do it for personal use, not for the general public.
One issue is that I constantly have to turn on the repeat playlist setting, as it doesn’t stay enabled after quitting the app.
If I get it working when I get to it, I'd be willing to contribute if this is a feature that interests you.
yeah, open a PR and I'd check it out for sure. The playlist functionality needs a lot of love.
Is forward auth from reverse proxy supported in this fork? It isn't mentioned in the README, so I assume it is not
Yeah, I'm not sure. I know a few people who run their servers behind a reverse proxy. I don't think the app cares as long as the response is correct and endpoints exposed properly.
I know there is a PR for basic auth that I have not yet rolled in because I need to test it but perhaps you can test this out and let me know?
Sure, I'll be happy to help
Try it, I'd be curious to see what happens? The release before has a debug version if you want to grab the logs.
I'm a Tempo user, and I love it.
If I'm understanding correctly, you are simply carrying on the dev work from Antonio Cappiello?
Hi non_burgler, I am also a tempo user, it was my daily driver for sure.
Yes, I kept going back to check for updates and got into a issue thread someone else starred to get a status update. I have been through a few apps like all of us have and thought it a shame to see this die.
Tried to get access to the repo but the last update was December 2024, so I forked it and started by merging in good looking prs that were pending.
That was a few months ago now and we've been making forward progress since.
I hope to figure out how to update the logo and change the name a bit to get it into app stores again but the graphic stuff is a challenge for me lol.
The base is 3.9, my releases/changes start with 3.10+
Whoah, good initiative!
If you're looking for any help, I'm willing.
I am, in particular in switching over to a rename/rebrand. That stuff is challenging for me. here';s the discussion https://github.com/eddyizm/tempo/discussions/111
Thank you for doing this. I had not clued in that tempo had stopped development.
When you do get around to changing the graphics, maybe you can ditch the ovaries and uterus look of the logo.

Lmao I hadn't even noticed, but yes, definitely that.
Thanks for all your work on this fork! I use Tempo every day and I'm so glad there's development continuing. Do you already have a new name for the project in mind?
Thanks, yes, I am leaning towards Tempus which is roughly latin for tempo and similar - logo is has some candidates -> https://github.com/eddyizm/tempo/discussions/111
yo! I've been keeping up with this!! Awesome to see you here and seeing tempo get some love!
Thanks! Yeah I'm not sure why I waited so long to join lemmy.
Hell yeah I love Tempo and its great to see it getting updates again. Thanks for your work on this!
same here, i didn't want to see it die!
How's Android auto support? On my app it's broken.
It's not perfect but it's working. What app are you using?
Says Tempo 3.8.1
That's an old version from last year. If you get the latest from github you should have android support, given the caveat that you have to make the adjustments for an unknown app (check out the docs)
The other thing that might hang you up is if you use graphene OS. The degoogled version lacks auto support.
Just tested yours and it works fine ♥️ Many thanks
Fantastic! I just added the heart/like feature there as well and wasn't sure if showed up on android auto.
Need to figure out how to get a test environment for that.
@eddyizm @flightyhobler A lot of us are just using Tempo out of f-droid (which has been stuck at 3.8.x), and would love to have a fork or update available in f-droid. Alternatively, an external f-droid repo.
Hi @Andres4NY@social.ridetrans.it I unfortunately don't have access to that repo so I can't update it there (fdroid) - I have had a chat with the izzyDroid dev and he gave me some tips on what I need to do to get it into his repo and thus fdroid - I am working towards it but I could use some help because I'm figuring this java android app stuff as I go. But I will post here when I do, it will be a new name and a new icon, same app. ;-)
Wait, subsonic is still a thing ? wow.
I don't think it every died. the api is supported across many projects and has been forked to openap
