SV: [Freevo-users] Ideas for next major release wanted

OK, one thing that I've been wanting to have a long time is to go to any image in the image viewer and select that as my background, just as I would in GNOME or KDE. I think this is very difficult, but that would make freevo more nice, in my opinion. /PS -Ursprungligt meddelande- Från:

I don;t quite think thats what he was asking.. This 'feature' does no exist right now. I'd be happy to help get it started. But it is very complex. Firstly: how to get the options? There needs to be a way for freevo to tell the user (or the plugin) exactly what options are

Hi Mick, I think that Michael got a little bit beyond what I was asking for. For sure, there are options which are difficult to set from inside freevo, as you pointed out. And maybe, it's even right that normal users actually _can't_ do that. But maybe, taking a strict amount of options to

Maybe one could begin with an option screen that lets the user change those options which does not require typing? To undertake all options at one go would probably mean that nothing got done in the end, because it's too complicated. I think it would be much better to have some things to tweak

Hi. New here :) I tried out MythTV for a while, but decided to go back to FreeVo. The FreeVo interface is so much simpler and easier to handle. Of course, its less featurefull compared to MythTv, but it's what you (I) need, when you need it. and usually only 2-3 clicks away. Keep it up :)
