Dear Rhythmbox devs, I finally finished something I started a long time ago. The idea is to make better use of the screen when the computer is playing music and no one is close by: We still want to know what's playing and what's coming next. In the meantime Banshee created another full screen mode, and that should be reason enough in itself, right? :)
Presenting: FullscreenView It's a little bit bling, but still sober. I like the idea of being able to skip a track while not leaving the full screen mode. I leave the general music management to the Rhythmbox UI, well aware that an alternative full screen "party mode" is already available. The plugin is in my SVN. I don't expect it to be totally bug free, but playing around with it, I didn't find any showstoppers. The most severe issue right now, is that queued tracks are not detected. But by now I'm pretty eager to premiere it... http://overtag.dk/wordpress/rhythmbox-fullscreen/ Please leave comments by mail or on the above page. And thanks to moch on IRC for giving tips yesterday night. I had to make a patch for the python bindings to make it work, though. So at the same time I'd like to direct attention to this bug: http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=568688 All the best, Benjamin _______________________________________________ rhythmbox-devel mailing list rhythmbox-devel@gnome.org http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/rhythmbox-devel
