Sorry! Just figured out the previous comments. Needed to move the FullScreenView folder to ~.gnome2/rhythmbox/plugins .

Crashes with 12.6, so I guess I join the waiting masses for the new version!

I just checked out the latest with svn, but it hasn’t shown up in my plugins list. Does it work with ver 0.12.6, or are you still working on this one?

AWESOME! this makes Rhythmbox even better!

one small minor feature request – more of a question, really…

is there any way to run Rhythmbox with this already activated – ie not have to push the button? alternatively is there a keyboard shortcut to activate it?

the reason I ask is because I usually control the program with a remote via lirc and would love to implement this on a remote button… (or even better just have Rhythmbox automatically open with it)

regardless, NICE WORK!!

Any estimation when there would be a new version?

and what about a 0.12.6 version?

Hi, I like it. I’d like to use it with a touchscreen, so was wondering what your thoughts are on these features. I can implement them if you would like to include them in the plugin, let me know. (But I’ll wait for the new “Christmas” version !)

* In addition to ESC key, either click the background to exit fullscreen, or include a button in the corner to exit. (Not sure which is better yet.)

* Rather than scroll the list on mouse movement, either drag the list to scroll, with a separate small play button next to each track listing, or add separate buttons to scroll (and keep the same click-track-to-play behavior). On a basic touchscreen, you can’t position the cursor without also clicking. This would be a configurable option.

Quick followup…

The crashes were from another plugin, Internet Radio Browser, I was simply trying to reopen Rhythmbox too quickly as that plugin was still shutting down (or something).

The flicker is only with Last FM, so it’s a plugin compatibility issue, not really a bug.

Thanks again, it’s really a beautiful display.

Thought I’d post what I’m seeing using Ubuntu 9.04 (Jaunty) and Rhythmbox 0.12.0…
The plugin works if I create/put it in ~/.gnome2/rhythmbox/plugins, not in ~/.gconf/apps/rhythmbox/plugins with the other plugins.

It was fussy to get running, causing Rhythmbox to crash the first couple of times I tried to start the player, once even before I had activated the plugin (I think). Now it seems to be working fine.

It’s pulling LastFM covers perfectly, and allowing me to scroll the playlist. Boy, if I could Love/Hate tracks in this mode, it would be amazing.

There is some odd flickering sometimes when hovering over the track listing area. It appears when hovering over the blank space between two listed tracks, and shows as a flash of a white line.

I’m running it with Compiz off, as that’s how I have my desktop. I’ll check it with Compiz on but won’t repost here unless I see some issues.

Thanks for the fine plugin, I hope it continues to develop!
