Re: [Banshee-List] Open URI from Banshee Extension

[Frank <funtastix googlemail com>]

As far as I can remember (sorry, at the moment in the process of
setting up my environment again) you'd rather have to find the
TrackInfo/DatabaseTrackInfo object in the MusicLibrary source and then
do a TrackInfo.Play()

So say in words of your second example:

Banshee.Collection.TrackInfo currTrack =
ServiceManager.PlayerEngine.CurrentTrack;
currTrack.Play();

...

or create a new DatabaseTrackInfo, which I wouldn't think was much of
a good idea, as you'd want the track to play that is already in the
library, right?
