For example, I played Imaginos by Blue Oyster Cult, but for some reason, Exaile used the cover from Blind Guardian's Imaginations from the Other Side album. Granted, I can easily set a custom cover, but I'm a bit spoiled by gmusicbrowser's offering me a choice of covers.
    You can right click on the cover to try a different search string. I'll have to take a gander at gmusicbrowser.

    Nah, it does it in a default state

    I believe I'll stay with Rhythmbox for now because Exaile visually makes very little sense to me.

    I think it looks nice. It has a very clean, uncluttered layout. I don't understand the metaphors for your tab icons, but overall I think it looks very appealing. If you can continue down the Amarok path without bringing in the (IMHO) clutter that Amarok suffers from, it would make an excellent addition to the GTK media players available. Great start!

    That's cool - I mostly wrote this to fit my needs - which I'm sure are mostly different than everyone elses.

    Yeah... I'm not an artist. I basically just took icons from other apps.

    SO... if you are an artist, and want to help, let me know

    Sadly, no. I'm a techie. My girlfriend says I'm a good photographer, but I think she's way too biased. And that's about as artsy as I get.

    I'd be far more likely to help with the Python coding, but even with that, I'm just beginning. I have some reasonable C/C++ experience, but I'm very rusty, and I'm just getting started with Python.

    I think you'll really like it, especially after using C and C++. I've only been coding in it for ~3 months, and I already know it's my favorite language by far.

    Looks great !, i have a little problem adding my music folders with the library tool, the program say this :

    loading songs
    Running is False
    /home/seccion9/Shared
    /home/seccion9/Compartidos
    /home/seccion9/Incomplete
    File count: 4
    Traceback (most recent call last):
    File "/home/seccion9/exaile/xl/media.py", line 361, in read_tag
    audio = mad.MadFile(self.loc)
    IOError: Object must have a read method
    Traceback (most recent call last):
    File "/home/seccion9/exaile/xl/media.py", line 361, in read_tag
    audio = mad.MadFile(self.loc)
    IOError: Object must have a read method
    Count is now: 4
    loading songs
    Traceback (most recent call last):
    File "/home/seccion9/exaile/xl/librarychooser.py", line 85, in __OnRemove
    del self.items[indexes[0]]
    IndexError: tuple index out of range
    Running is False


    Then, i just chose one folder, Exaile indexed one song (of two possible), and when i try to play the song, the program crash.

    Keep working in this program! looks promising
