Powerline breaks Emms Mode line

Open 3marcusw opened this issue 9 years ago • 3 comments

Powerline conflicts with EMMS. Normally, EMMS displays the current song and the song's current time in the modeline, like this, but with powerline, the emms-modeline is completely absent

I even reverted to a totally clean emacs install and added only powerline and EMMS in order to remove any other possible conflicts. Unfortunately, the problem persists.

where is emms putting its information? seems like it probably needs to be added to one of the modeline parameters. someone would probably need to make a pull request or something.

emms appears to be appending to the global-mode-string https://github.com/emacsmirror/emms/blob/master/lisp/emms-mode-line.el

This sounds like an Emms problem. There are shared variables that are more appropriate to modify. But again, I'm happy to entertain any pull requests to address this issue. On Sat, Apr 25, 2015 at 14:28 Marcus W [email protected] wrote:
