Well, now you can, again.

I would, but back then I was asked to split the patch into smaller
components, since otherwise it's way to big to read/grasp. A fair enough
request, but also so much work that I never got around to it, and doubt
I'll ever will.

You're welcome and you should :)

Stuart M. and Paul (and others).. any chance Eskil's patch could be
taken in as a one big chunk after 0.21 is out? Then there should be
plenty of time to sort out any issues before 0.22.

It seems that there will be taglib and mythui related big changes in
MythMusic soon.. would it be possible to sort this out before those
changes?

Otto, have you tried it and got it to work? I briefly did give it a go
with a view to possibly merging it after 0.21 is out but all I seemed to
get was segfaults everywhere. I didn't spend any time trying to get it
to work because I just assumed it was not working with current svn.

I don't remember exactly but I tried it something like 7-8 months ago. I
got it working quite well, certainly not segfaulting everywhere. Only
bigger issue for me was that it either required "show full music tree"
option enabled (which I don't use) or that option must be disabled
(which would be problem for other folks).

If MythMusic UI is to be converted to mythui, this UI limitation could
be solved at the same time.

Finally I had to drop using the patch because it became too difficult to
try to maintain it with other changes in MythMusic.

If there is interest to get this patch in, I'm willing to do some
testing either now beforehand or when it is in.

I would love to see Eskil's patch merged with trunk. Like Otto, I had
to abandon it because it was too much work keeping up with other
changes. I use softsqueeze in its place, but aside from it being an
ugly mother, the WAF would be much higher if everything were in one
place.

I also volunteer for testing as soon as it becomes necessary.

I've been using this patch all the way up until the miniplayer was
introduced into mythmusic and it was working just fine. With the latest
patch I get a segfault if I exit mythmusic leaving the stream playing in
the background, otherwise it's still rather stable. This would be a
great addition if included.

I've got that one fixed, I just need to get off my behind and remove
some debugs, update to latest svn and put out the new patch.
