Hi,

gnome-mplayer uses libmusicbrainz3 which only supports the deprecated version 1 
API.  libmusicbrainz5 supports the newer API which works a lot better, in 
particular with multi-disc releases.

Would you consider updating gnome-mplayer to use the newer library and API?

My distro does not include libmusicbrainz5 yet. If you could provide a patch to 
support that I would integrate it in. Otherwise the patch will need to wait 
until my distro has support for it. I'm currently on Fedora 16 and will 
probably be going to Fedora 17 in a few weeks.

Any update on this? Libmusicbrainz5 surely is in Fedora now and gnome-mplayer 
is (together with kscd) probably one of the last users of libmusicbrainz3.

There is partial progress in the debian issue tracker, which wasn't linked 
earlier for some reason:
