Hi. Freeamp is a wonderfull player, but it lacks some, in my opinion important features.
In "My Music" * Ability to add directorystructred subtrees of the soundfiles, that works like the IDtag tree, but uses the plain directorystructure instead. And maybe the ability to turn of the id3tag-tree. It's pretty useless (too slow) on a lagre collections of soundfiles located on several different netfilesystems unless all tags are in sync. This also makes it easier to 1. Listen to compilation-albums with songs from several artists 2. Edit bad or nonexistant idtags. This sould be pretty trivial to implement, (except that my c++ abilities are close to nonexistant :-) * Searchfunction in "My Music". A good solution would be to search for a string, and a popupwindow (or maybe a second playlist (split the playlistwindow maybe :-) with a list of all songs that match the string in some sort of way. Some of these song could then be marked and dragged to the playlist. Or maybe even better. The search produces a subnode in the new "My searches" in the "my music" subtree as searhnodes "search for "Paradise Lost"" results as subnodes. Keep maybe 5 of those searchnodes. And you could drag it to the playlist. Searches should match song, artist, album or filename. (maybe regexps :-) This is probably some more work. But would be really great. Unfortunalty, as I mentioned, my c++ skills are nothing to brag about, so hopefully someone that belives these ideas is worth implenting could do the necessary patching.. And then... freeamp would be _THE_ player for all OS'es.
