Rhythmbox : automatically update the music library  
Written by wladston the 9 Mar 08 at 04:42. Global category: Multimedia. New
I have a music folder, and I put all my musics to it. When new music is added, I have to "re-import" my music folder for the musics to get added.

Would be great if Rhythmbox monitored my music folder for new files and automatically added them.

EDIT : There is a way to tell Rhythmbox to do it on the Settings menu - So the complete idea - Either do it by default or at the first run, when asking for the music library folder, have a checkbox for this feature.

OggConvert should support bath transcoding  
Written by wladston the 21 Aug 08 at 21:37. Global category: Multimedia. New
Guys,

OggConvert is a great app, but it can only convert ONE music at the time .... so If I have a music directory with 100 wma or mp3 musics, I would have to convert then ONE BY ONE ...

please fix this, allow the user to specify a directory as a source (with subdirectory search)

Advanced music sync capability for Rythmbox  
Written by wladston the 20 May 08 at 22:40. Global category: Multimedia. New
User should be able to export music in a selective way to an SD card, Music player, or USB drive.

This could be done by creating a dynamic playlist, that can be filled either randomly, or by genre, by artist, and limiting the playlist by minutes/megabytes/tracks (after all you can't always put your entire collection on your music device).

Please, also take some time to read the attached bug before voting (I had the idea before brainstorm was launched).

This is related to Idea #3409 and Idea #3156, but it's not a dupe.

Interactive way to filter music  
Written by wladston the 19 May 08 at 22:05. Global category: Multimedia. New
After playing with this site :

http://musicovery.com/index.php?ct=us

and seeing that it allows to restringe the year the music if from with sliders, and filter dynamically combining calm/energic and dark/positive variations, while also restringing the musical stiles ... AND being alble to choose the tempo ... and being able to mark for "hits" or/and "non-hits" ... I was thinking ... wouldn't it be a good idea if a similar feature were incorporated to Rythmbox ?

I strongly suggest you guys to try the mentioned s

Rhythmbox: Be able to remove/report wrong cover art  
Written by wladston the 13 Mar 08 at 07:56. Global category: Multimedia. New
The cover art plugin is great, but sometimes I have it download wrong cover arts.

There should be a way to remove the wrong cover art- possible an "X" button that shows up when the mouse is over the cover art image.
