Hi Mathias,

I've tried to use a bit your plugin, and I like how you've implemented it.

However I had some problems:

1. yesterday I was able to set the plugin according to my needs, but 
when I clicked "ok" the windows didn't accept input (so that I had to 
close the window with "x" - altF4 - without saving my choices)

2. today, just in order to give you a better feedback on it, I've 
started rhythmbox from command line "rhythmbox -n -d" but I receive the 
following error when I tried to set up your plugin:

Anyway, as Andrew already told you, someone already implemented a 
similar plugin:

1. alarmclock-1.2.tar.bz2 (http://fabien.carrion.free.fr)
2. rb-alarmclock-0.4 (http://bgarret.free.fr/blog/?page_id=8)

However, the second does not work anymore (at least for me), and  the 
second has some minor problems (like it does not play the playlist you 
have selected, or other).

For this reason, I encourage you - if it's possible, 'cause I'm not a 
code literate at all - to merge your plugin with Fabien's one, so that 
it could became stable and 100% complete (I'm a rhythmbox plugin fun, 
because it's probably the most used application).

Keep fine,

giopas
