Re: [Rhythmbox-devel] Import last.fm statistics into rhythmbox

[Josh Kupershmidt <schmiddy gmail com>]

Luca,
This looks really cool! I'm a happy user of both rhythmbox and
last.fm, and hadn't learned of libre.fm until now. I'll give libre.fm
a shot now that I know about it.

One fix I have for you is that my rhythmbox.xml file is stored in:
 ~/.gnome2/rhythmbox/rhythmdb.xml
not in
~/.local/share/rhythmbox/rhythmdb.xml
as you have hardcoded in lastfm_stats_in_rhythmbox.py . I attached a
tiny patch to lastfm_stats_in_rhythmbox.py which checks in both
locations for the rhythmdb.xml file. FYI, I'm using Rhythmbox 0.11.6
on Ubuntu Intrepid.

The lastfm_stats_in_rhythmbox.py script seemed to work for me after
the fix. Thanks for sharing this -- I hope it catches on, I could see
this being a handy plugin if integrated properly (e.g. clicking a
button in rhythmbox to handle the sync all in one pass).

Josh
