Idea #21403: .is_audio_player needs new features.

Written by b3t0n the 11 Sep 09 at 13:32. Related project: Banshee Music Player. Status: New
Rationale
If you want to manage the content of your media player in applications like Banshee you either have to get it recognised as media player by default, or create own .is_audio_player file.

Creating file is fairly good solution, but as the pmp advance and now can play not only music, but movies and podcasts, the file doesn't help to manage them. It can only define music directory, cover art, supported media types, but it all comes down to music.

Solution #1: Define a new .is_media_player file.
Written by b3t0n the 11 Sep 09 at 13:32.
With devices like PSP or any other PMP we can now watch movies. However, we cannot manage files in Banshee or other program, because .is_audio_player defines only music players.

What we need is a new file that will be describe f.e.
- movie directory
- supported resolutions, codecs, file formats,
- podcast directory
- maybe audiobooks?
- other things that can be put on pmp.
