tough question to answer - it means weighing thre balance between how likely people are to having files with no extension, the time it adds to do scanning, whether people could figure out what i figured out, and how likely people would be to change the filenames. i found the same thing happened with amarok - it expects an extension as well on the other hand, you could just let people add *anything* to the library, regardless of whether it's music, image, executable, or whatever else they're likely to do, and then let mplayer sort out what happens when you try to play a non-audio track - i'm guessing mplayer can work out without being told, what type of file it is? _______________________________________________ Openmoko community mailing list [email protected] http://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/community
