There are efforts of writing a xmms2 client that shares music (discussions with one of the daap projects, don't remember which) based on what's inside the xmms2 medialibrary. This will naturally support smart playlists and collections once that has been implemented in the daemon. > That's why I wanted a common music db in order to create shoutcast > playlists or whatever from the database.

Well, you'd be running multiple daemons, but it's easy for a client to handle multiple connections. > Anyways, I will hold off on questions (and probably mail you > privately since it's probably offtopic) Depends on how you look at it. Just a quick response on irc to the thread: [15:58:37][tru]: no, that they are talking about what xmms2 is already :P But ok, I'm not going to discuss XMMS2 here any longer as it is also a player and not just a medialibrary. -- Daniel Svensson, <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
