With some of my playlist stuff in the "merge" branch (it isn't in cvs yet) adding paths as a criteria to automatic playlists is fairly trivial. You'll probably want to have it monitor the folder for new songs - which is something that RB doesn't do (yet). > 2. When I add extra songs to a playlist, the song which was playing, > stops. Annoying. This also happens on moving around the song which > is playing in a playlist. This will happen when you remove a song, but having it happen when you add a song is definitely a bug. It also shouldn't happen when you move a song in a playlist, but I can hazard a guess as to why it's happening. I've also just realised that one of my unreviewed patches in bugzilla probably make this worse with automatic playlists - I'd better go take a look at fixing it. > 4.

The merge branch also has a button to clear the filters. Making the search entry a combo-box, with recent a drop-down of recent search could be handy. > A little id3-editing would also be nice (I know EasyTag does the job > really well, but sometimes, well, it'd be nice to just quickly fix a > misspellign). CVS has (experimental) support for writing tag for MP3 and FLAC files, I'm not sure on the status of other types, such as oggs, though. Cheers, James "Doc" Livingston -- In God we Trust.
