i just wanted to say, i just checked out and built from cvs, and its great. the start up seems much faster, and has seemingly improved every time i do a new cvs build, which i've been trying to do every week or so. but the main reason i'm writing, is because the fact the the album art plugin has made it in! this is great. i've been wanting this for quite some time, and since python plugins hit the scene, have been itching to play around with such a thing, but with my senior year in school finishing up this summer, have yet to find to time to hack on it. i jsut got it built, and need to go look at the code to poke around etc. i know that the plugin fetches from amazon, and i know the "doc" had put in support for grabbing images from some thing like .cover.jog (or something to the effect, is there any support in teh works for other files to be used? such as .cover.png/jpg .album.png/jpg .directory.png/jpg or album.png/jpg ? i know those are some "common" methods. also, what about images in the id3 tag? anyone planning support? i've played around in python with writing to the id3 tag where the images go, but am yet to play with extracting them. i must admit, for a little while i was switching back and forth between banshee and rhythmbox. i liked the album cover and ipod support in banshee, but, it was slow (with 10k plus songs, painfully slow), and had no browser. i always ended up going right back to good ol'rhythmbox. now that album art support is in, and the track transfers to an ipod/other mp3 players is comming along, i can see no reason for anything other than rhythmbox to dominate my 4th workspace. its getting faster and faster, and the features seem to be pouring in. great work everyone. -- Matthew Nicholson <sjoeboo sjoeboo com> sjoeboo.com
