This software displays the current track being played by Amarok on the Logitech G15 keyboard's LCD screen through a script.
This script is based on Robert Riemann's "G15 Amarok Plugin Plus" v1.0. However, it has been heavily modified and now only updates on track or status change. This solves the issue of Amarok's CPU usage shooting up to about 10% on slower devices when using Robert's script. Additionally, it does not scroll long titles as that would require more updates.
Despite its simplicity, it's an effective script that quickly checks and updates the current playing track's artist, title, album, and length. Keep in mind that you'll need g15composer (which in turn will require g15daemon, both can be found at www.g15tools.com), iconv, dcop, sed, and a running Amarok to make this script work.
Overall, G15-Simple is a convenient and efficient script that makes it easy to view what's currently playing in Amarok without the need to look at your computer screen.
