Re: [Rhythmbox-devel] Video?

["Christophe Dehais" <christophe dehais gmail com>]

I would not favor making RB handle videos further than delegating the
jobs to e.g. Totem.

What is lacking is a desktop-wide media library, that would store in a
generic way music tracks, videos and podcasts. Applications like
Totem, Rhythmbox, {insert podcast app here} could browse/update it for
their respective media type and launch/integrate a better suited app
for other types of media.

I would prefer having only one excellent handling of each type of
media than 3 poor/limited implementations.
Then the problem is to seemlessly integrate application components,
e.g. embedding Totem's video window inside Rhythmbox or making a
podcast feed download service available to any application.

Well, that's the architecture astronaut point of view ;
rewrite_what_is_needed plugin-based solutions actually work just fine.
