Bug#408377: rhythmbox: Please allow rb to open the last read songs after shutting down

2007-01-25 Thread Julien Valroff
Package: rhythmbox
Version: 0.9.7-1
Severity: wishlist

Hi,

I think it would be useful to have an option that would allow rb to remember 
the last
song played before shutting down, and go back to this song/location when 
opening rb
again.

The default location is to open the library, which is not the good choice for 
users who
use rb eg:
  * to listen to radio
  * to listen songs from a DAAP share

Also useful for people with a very large library, this would allow them to know 
when they
stop listening to music, and avoid them re-listening to the same songs.

This option could be integrated in the GUI or implemented as a GConf entry only.

Thanks for your work!

Cheers,
Julien

Indeed, I couldn't find any of these bugs, thanks for letting me know.
