Re: GNOME Music needs you!

Hey,

Music should include files from ~/Music and ~/Downloads only.
If some other files are played - please file a new bug (please 
attach the output of 'gnome-music -d' to help debugging it).

This is how I've been using Music the whole time (no need for any patches), 
seems to work fine for me. The only thing that drives me crazy, is that 
this is supposed to be a music player, yet rather than indexing my music 
collection in ~/Music, it has chosen to index every single audio file it 
can find anywhere in my home directory. Which means when I shuffle all 
songs, it keeps playing random audio files that are not part of my 
collection, and are not songs at all.
