a GUI would be so much better.
***remember: "linux for human beings", before suggesting to leave "as-is"

a GUI that lets you:
1. Select the sound driver you are currently using (ALSA, OSS, Pulseaudio) from a drop-down list
2. Various system-wide options for the driver would be shown below:
You can change the audio buffer using a slider (or numerical value in MB)
You can set-up multiple audio outputs (if you have more than one audio out port that you want to use)
You can set up 2,3.1,4,5.1, and 7.1 surround sound by clicking on a button in the GUI, which brings you to a step-by-step configuration (next, previous buttons included)
it would also include a test page towards the end of the configuration that sends sound through each speaker, to make sure they are all working.

Add all the above settings into the existing sound configuration menu, possibly under a tab labeled "Advanced".

In the Sound Menu bar below or above the volume scroller, place a progress slider.

Simple as that.

Data from the library are (from Vista) on:
"C: \ Users \ nombre_de_usuario \ AppData \ Roaming \ Winamp \ Plugins \ ml"

The data are in "main.dat" and "main.idx", one need only know how to interpret them.

Develop a Hype Machine extension for Banshee.

Private API for Hype Machine (perhaps available via contact Anthony Volodkin)

An ideal solution would be to sync the status of podcasts through Ubuntu One. This would basically be a list of currently subscribed podcasts, and which the current status of each episode.

One thing to mention is that Ubuntu One should _not_ sync the podcast file itself - this would be impractical with a large number of podcasts/episodes.

As an example, imagine two systems, both synced to the same Ubuntu One account. I log into system #1, subscribe to a podcast through Banshee, and listen to the first 2 episodes of the 4 available. Then, I move to system #2, open Banshee, and it starts downloading episodes 3 and 4, having marked episodes 1 and 2 as old. I listen to episode 3, then unsubscribe from the podcast. Back on system #1, the podcast is removed from Banshee automatically next time I log on.

The developer community should start putting aside some time and effort to implement the crossfading support to Banshee.

Mostly in the Gnome Desktop Environment, Gstreamer is one of the principal sound APIs a developer finds at hand. If the developers of this project agree in implementing such feature into the library itself, all the dependencies will have the opportunity to use crossfading themselves.

In fact, because many projects depend on Gstreamer, developers from the abroad might want to contribute to the project.

Reuse the crossfading code from Rhyhtmbox and improves it.

Banshee should be able to know when new files are added to the library directory and add them right away.

Gnome and Ubuntu use Tracker as a file searcher, so why don't other programs use it as well?
Banshee could use it.

There is already a working solution to this: the LibraryWatcher extension.

But I guess that somehow it was bundled disabled.

Ubuntu Brainstorm was updated in January 2009. Since the idea #12111 was submitted before this update, its rationale and solution are not separated. Please vote accordingly, and if you have the necessary rights, please separate the rationale from the solution. Thanks!

This works in iTunes for me very well. (They additionally include translated prefixes for "The" - like "Die"/"Der"/"Das" in german)

Provide an editable list of ignored prefixes. This way, each user can setup the app best for his needs and language issues are taken care of.
