Ubuntu 10.04: Coming Soon [VIDEO]

I hope you like it :) .

Idea in brainstorm

After many suggestions coming out from the comments in «It would be nice if in Nautilus» post, I posed a new idea in ubuntu brainstorm.

You can find it here:


Please vote and comment the idea if you want see it in the next ubuntu releases.

It would be nice if in Nautilus …

… when you select some Audio/Video files:
nautilus

the information about the file in the Properties window:
file-properties

was also included in the sidebar:
nautilus-info

A simple theme for Gwibber…

This is a simple theme for Gwibber designed to match the Dust GTK+ theme and based on gilouche.

Preview:
gwibber-dust

You can download the code using bazaar:

bzr branch lp:~l3on/gwibber/dust-theme

To install, put it into this directory:

~/.local/share/gwibber/ui/themes/

and pick the new theme from Gwibber’s preferences.

Suggestions are welcome. :)

A simple plugin for Sonata…

This simple plugin uses pynotify to notify on song changes in sonata.

This is when you don’t have the album cover:

no-album-cover

This one shows a preview of plugin when option “Album art” is checked (and mp3 file has some decent id3-tags):

notify-with-album-prew

Download:
You can download it using bzr:

bzr branch lp:~l3on/sonata/sonata-plugins

Then copy notify.py into the plugins directory of sonata.

Required:
* Sonata git
* python-notify package

Suggestion:
For a better result, uncheck: Sonata → Preferences → Extra → Popup notification on song changes

Regards.
