The internal data-structures in gnome-mp3 have been (beautifully) rewritten to abstract the local fs away! Check it out!
I have good news!
gnome-mp3 has just crossed over the "hump." Now, no matter what happens in xmms, gnome-mp3 will find out, and then UPDATE ITS OWN LIST ACCORDINGLY!!! Wooo! Hooray!
Added a really cool new featurn, playlist syncing. Now, no matter what you do to your playlist in xmms, gnome-mp3 will hear about and update its own internal list.! Get a fresh cvs copy today!
It turns out gnome-mp3 had a bug in it that caused it to segfault on startup for new users. Sorrry!!!
Gnome MP3 now has a whole slew of new playlist syncronization features as well as a new file Operations. These features include a clear (and customizable) display of the current track playing, and automatic trucation of the ".mp3" in the track name! Download and try it out now!
Gnome MP3 now includes support to display the track names without the pesky .mp3 at the end or the nn- at the beginning, but retains the proper ordering (and doesn't alter the file names on disk.) Also, Gnome MP3 beautifies the names, killing those pesky _'s in it's display while not affecting the local copy.
Enjoy!
The Gnome MP3 is now usable for anybody and everybody who is sick and tired of being sick tired of xmms, and the way it handles directories full of MP3s. So, if you or a loved one has thier MP3s in an Artist/Album/Track directory structure, give Gnome MP3 a whirl. At this point, please get the CVS version. It should build with no problems.
Enjoy!
