New MythMusic Theme Design - using 4 bins

parkinpants · Post by **parkinpants** » Wed Oct 05, 2005 5:16 pm

I have designed a new layout for MythMusic which uses 4 bins on the screen. This design is orientated towards people with large mp3 collections of complete albums for ease of manipulation. My main man Mr. Vikas Rangarajan has made 5 patches so far for the MythTv and MythPlugins 0.18.1 source code. Usability is now quite stable. In fact, patch 1 has been accepted onto the MythTv Trac as it fixed a common bug.

Ultimately I want to have all music related features accessible from the one MythMusic screen.... i.e.

1. Play Audio CD
2. Import CD (Rip Audio / import mp3 CD/DVD)
3. Burn MP3 CD/DVD
4. Burn Audio CD
5. Advanced Genre/Year Filters
6. Scan for new music
7. ipod/portable mp3 transfers/synchronisation
8. ID3 Tag Editor

Other aims..

1. Get it all fully numbered 1-9, SKY TV style so that keyboard use is redundant for MythMusic
2. Allow music to keep playing whilst using other Myth features
3. Improvements to ID3 tag scanning

Anyway, a picture speaks a thousand words....
