Hi all,
Though this is the final day of GSoC, I would like to ask the
Rhythmbox Community to allow me one more week (since I started a couple
weeks late). I would like to continue, testing/debugging and making
sure my code is as polished, and clean as I possibly can.
One of the major issues I was working on last week was that, during
syncing the UI would hang for a few seconds (while the databases were
compared). To overcome that I converted the sync function into a
daisy-chain of g_idle_add functions, and I set the
rb_media_player_prefs_update_sync function, to be able to be called as
an idle_cb (to improve UI responsiveness). However, with that, the way
that data is passed between them, and state is preserved became a bit
wonky. That is one of the things that I would like to spend this week
cleaning up.
The other little thing, I would like to fix this week, is to have
the UI buttons for sync grayed out while it is happening, so that it
cannot be repeatedly clicked, leading to simultaneous syncs (a very bad
thing).
moch: If you need my code in ASAP, I can send it to you, but if
there is no rush for the release after 0.12.4, then I would like to
continue working on my code.
Thanks all. It has been a pleasure working with you, and I look forward
to continuing to contribute to the Rhythmbox project in the future.
Paul Bellamy
