Browsing features for Banshee

[GoogleCodeExporter]

playlists, play queue and library

Would be really cool, please!

Remuco uses Banshee's DBus interface to communicate with Banshee. This interface
currently lacks playlist and queue interaction and only provides limited access 
to
the library. I would be happy to implement this features, but at first 
Banshee's BDus
interface needs to be extended. Some month ago I asked for that at the Banshee
mailing list
(http://mail.gnome.org/archives/banshee-list/2009-February/msg00214.html) but I 
got
no feedback so far.

You could post a feature request in Banshee's bug tracker to boost this 
process. (you
may want to check existing DBus related issues in Banshee:

You should file them as separate bugs in BGO [1]. Item 5 from the list
is already there [2]

[1] https://bugzilla.gnome.org/browse.cgi?product=banshee
[2] https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=579754

Suggest you file the bugs, as you'll do it much better than I!

I just checked the banshee gnome project list and found one reply, FYI:
http://mail.gnome.org/archives/banshee-list/2009-October/msg00130.html

Any further news on progressing this, please?

Many thanks,  geoff

The reply is not very helpful as it refers to DBus actions already implemented 
in
Banshee and used by Remuco (basic playback control).

I did not receive any other information on this issue, so it looks like nothing 
has
changed so far. I just can hope someone else works on this as I don't have the 
time
and C# knowledge to work on this :/.

Sorry ...

A little out of topic: Song rating should work now with the next Banshee 
release:

Any progress on this so far? I much prefer Banshee over other library capable 
player, especially with grid view working so nicely. Would be could to be able 
to browse/search the library with Remuco...

cheers! menno

Hi!

No progress yet?

Here is a simple c++ program  with (dbus-)control over banshee's playlist I 
wrote.

Activates a certain playlist if passed as parameter.
Otherwise available Playlists are printed.
Worked fine for me.
