True, but it can be painful to keep the libraries in sync. Hopefully with folder monitoring this is no longer such a problem. Do you think that users should be allowed to set ratings or delete items from the library in party mode? One thing I would find useful is being able to transfer ratings. In iTunes I can create an auto playlist to play only songs rated 4 or 5 stars, or tell it to play higher rated music more often. This makes it more like a jukebox of hits rather than just random playing of all my music, including obscure 1 or 2 star songs from some of my albums. If I'm running Rhythmbox as a different user to use party mode, I think these ratings wouldn't be picked up. Does double clicking on a song in iTunes in party mode queue it rather than play it? I hadn't noticed that feature, but it's a really good idea. _______________________________________________ rhythmbox-devel mailing list [email protected] http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/rhythmbox-devel
