Actually, I haven't noticed >the separate "Music Player" entry for Rhythmbox yet. ;) > No, I didn't mean that. I know it is still in the regular menu as Audio Player, I mean that when you double click on an .ogg file (the icon for which is still not bluecurve), Rhythmbox is what will be playing it. If you right-click on that .ogg file, there is no mention of XMMS - you have to choose Open With => An Application and then add it to the menu there. It should't be that way unless is was that way in TEST 3, and it wasn't. Also, Rhythmbox is too buggy to be the default anything. Many of the methods that are supposed to work for creating playlists do not work (i.e., dragging album or artist names from the browser windows to the source window). Then there is adding genre information to the song properties - a long list of genre pop up, but you none of them stick once chosen. Can't add a genre of your onw either. And then there is the streaming problem. Mp3 support is not included and everyone is quite mum on how to get it - well, mum in terms of specifics - and as for .ogg streams, the ones I tried played at double speed, whereas they worked fine under XMMS - even minutes apart. definitely a Rhythmbox bug. Rhythmbox has no business being the default. That was a sneaky last minute sneak in. It is that idea that upsets me. Why bother beta testing anything, if at the end somebody over somewhere just decides do to what he wants for the masses. That is my beef. rg > > > -- fedora-test-list mailing list [email protected] http://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-test-list
