I tried that but I'm really looking for a 'search mp3' function

I have installed eclipse and py-dev and with a little hacking in main.py,
I can now do some step by step debugging in Freevo :-)
That's pretty cool, especially for noobs like me.

I'm still having one issue however. The album_tree plugin fails on the
following line:

import freevo.playlist as playlist #namespaces :( not the playlist-pligin

I get an error message in the console which says:

can't find helper main

There is no problem importing other modules like 'audio' or 'gui'. I
believe the problem is linked to the fast that there is a plugin whose
name is 'playlist'.

Two questions:
1/ Do you guys use such debugging tool for Freevo development ? Or which
one do you use ?
2/ Does anyone know how to fix this issue ? (which doesn't happen when
running out of the debugger). I could certainly rename or remove the
playlist plugin but I'd rather fix the issue in a clean way.

Many thanks
Jean-Francois
