I should clarify, this is a request for an enhancement. As far as I can tell, the current functionality is not broken, but rather incomplete.
I installed Lucid to a VM and saw the same issue, which leads me to believe I failed at explaining my issue, for this I am sorry. The problem is the GUI for creating an automatic playlist allows you to use all ANDs or all ORs. Ive posed the following example. (Screen-caps included) Example assumptions: I've added 4 fake songs to my library: <Title/Genre/Rating(out of 5)> Song1/Rock/4 Song2/Alternative/5 Song3/Punk/4 Song4/Rock/1 Desired result: An automatic playlist that allows me to add all Rock/Alternative/Punk songs of rating 4 or greater... Observed result: None. Creating a playlist in this way is not possible currently because of limitations of the automatic playlist creation pop- up. Further info: What I'm saying is, using the provided GUI for automatic playlist creation, I can, at best, create a playlist that has all 4 fake songs using the settings set in the automatic playlist creation pop-up. This is incomplete as I can think of several cases where the gui fails to allow me to create specific profiles. Ideally, I would like to create a playlist with several different Genres but only with the best songs. Or rather in this example, an automatic playlist with Song1, Song2, and Song3. (and therefore, more good songs as I add them...) Additional comments: I understand the desire to keep things simple/intuitive for users but that doesn't mean functionality should be hindered as a result. I hope you agree. Thanks for all your time and effort. It IS much appreciated. ** Attachment added: "Screen-caps attempting to explain my meaning" http://launchpadlibrarian.net/50376480/Rhythmbox-Screencaps.tgz -- Automatic Playlist creation doesnt allow for partial ANDs or ORs https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/594135 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to rhythmbox in ubuntu. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
