moodbar

Analysis program for creating a colorful visual representation of an audio file

The Moodbar is an algorithm for creating a colorful visual representation of the contents of an audio file, giving an idea of its "mood" (this is a rather fanciful term for the simple analysis it actually does). The Moodbar was invented by Gavin Wood and Simon O'Keefe for inclusion in the Amarok music player. This package contains a GStreamer plugin with elements that are used in the moodbar analysis, and an application that actually does the analysis. The package also contains a shell-script (create-moodbar.sh), which will generate the mood files for all music-files (mp3|ogg|flac|wma) in the directory (including sub-directories) where it is being executed
