Re: [Rhythmbox-devel] new podcast patch

[Marcelo Oliveira <handful gmail com>]

Hi Everyone,

I'm working with Renato on the podcast support (mainly I will be looking / evaluating / testing the UI ) and I will try to contribute as much as possible.

First consideration : 

> When first viewed the Podcast source shows all feeds, but there doesn't
> appear to be any way to go back to viewing all of them. Is that
> intentional?

No, it just passed =). We going to make it behave just like the normal Rhythm list / browser :

 - an ALL option will list all podcasts from all registered feeds
 - You will be able to selec multiple feeds that you want to hear.

Is there any reason for adding more of our own art, rather than using
GTK_STOCK_YES and GTK_STOCK_NO?

No at all, we placed only for marking out that there's no icon on the default theme to fit them. and the GTK_STOCK breaks the look'n fell. We would be nice to have the icons matching the RB default LF, but if not, we will place the GTK_sTOCK ones.

Another consideration I would like to point is :

The Music menu ( in the main toolbar ) is becoming a little more them music with the podcasting. Is it possible to change it to "Media" or other word that could fill out all the things that the user can listen to in RB? like : not all podcast are categorized under "music" they are just audio posts. If this is not possible another possibility would be to create or place the podcast menu under other category.

I prefer the first one.

The patch has some cvs conflict makers in it, but it's fairly easy to
fix.


A couple more comments/questions:

Is there any reason for adding more of our own art, rather than using
GTK_STOCK_YES and GTK_STOCK_NO?

It would probably be good to show the podcast menu, so you can subscribe
to a new feed, when right-clicking in the empty space at the bottom of
the feed list/browser.

When first viewed the Podcast source shows all feeds, but there doesn't
appear to be any way to go back to viewing all of them. Is that
intentional?

Currently if you quit while it is downloading a podcast, it will have to
restart downloading when you start RB back up again. It would be nice if
it could resume the download, rather than starting again; but I don't
know if you can do that with gnome_vfs_async_xfer, so it might not be
possible.


Cheers,

James "Doc" Livingston
