[Rhythmbox-devel] Update : Download and show albums covers

[Marc Pavot <m pavot laposte net>]

Hi,

I have made a lot of changes in my arch branch for the support of the 
album covers. It now works like this :

*When you play a song :
- It search a cover in ~/.gnome2/rhythmbox/covers
- If none is found, it search a cover in the directory of the song
- If none is found, it search a cover on amazon.com
- If a cover is found in one of this place, the cover is displayed and 
saved in ~/.gnome2/rhythmbox/covers.

*When you launch the cover manager (screenshot :

- It now shows all the covers found in ~/.gnome2/rhythmbox/covers with a 
tree structure (Artist/Album)
- You can :
      - Automatically get all the covers of an artist (or of all 
artists) from the directory of the albums.
      - Automatically download all the covers of an artist (or of all 
artists) from amazon.
      - Download a cover from amazon and select between different 
covers and different sizes if you only select one album.
      - Choose a cover for an album on your hard disk if you only 
select one album.

All your comments, ideas and bug reports are really welcome.

Marc
