>=3B >=3B Yes=2C shuffle mode is working well and mistakenly= I pointed it out as

>=3B >=3B I forgot to mention some of the impro= vements=2C which I think=2C can be done
IDEA - =3B>=3B >= =3B in this application. The "open with" menu option which I mention= ed in my

>=3B >=3B in the above menu but due to lack= of functionality provided on the back
>=3B >=3B end=2C the user doe= s not get the desired output response.
>=3B >=3B
>=3B >=3B>=3B >=3B +1
>=3B >=3B I like this idea=2C this need to be impl= emented.
>=3B >=3B
>=3B >=3B
>=3B >=3B Improvements in= following sections can be:-
IDEA - =3B>=3B >=3B *Musi= c* *:-
>=3B >=3B *Search engine (in Songs=2C Album=2C etc.) does= not seem to work at all. I
>=3B >=3B tried searching for a music wh= ich is also there in the playlist but did not
>=3B >=3B get any resu= lts (neither did it respond with search failure nor with song
>=3B >= =3B found). Improving the song search can have an alternative if sorting>=3B >=3B feature is introduced by virtue of which user can sort the a= lbums=2C songs
>=3B >=3B etc according to their names. Player can be= enhanced with modes like
>=3B >=3B repeat=2C shuffle=2C etc. and re= ordering of songs in the playlist is also not
>=3B >=3B there.
&g= t=3B >=3B
>=3B >=3B
>=3B >=3B Ummm=2C For me search works f= ine for Artist=2C Album and songs works fine but
>=3B >=3B yeah=2C i= t doesn't display message when search result is zero.
>=3B >=3B
&= gt=3B >=3B Shuffle works in Playlist. Repeat option can be added.
>= =3B >=3B Sorting of media is needed on the basis of different field like = size=2C
>=3B >=3B date=2C name=2C length etc.
>=3B >=3B
&g= t=3B >=3B
IDEA - =3B>=3B >=3B *Pictures:-
>= =3B >=3B *Again=2C clicking on "All Picture" does not produce any results= . Every
>=3B >=3B time if the user has to view the pictures=2C he/sh= e has to browse the
>=3B >=3B pictures in the folders first and then= load it. Further=2C just like we have
>=3B >=3B the option to selec= t some files and play them only=2C in a similar fashion=2C
>=3B >=3B= we can have option to select some pictures and then view them via slide>=3B >=3B show.
>=3B >=3B
>=3B >=3B
>=3B >=3B I g= uess=2C your Nepomuk indexer is not running or maybe haven't indexed your>=3B >=3B picture directory. Check with that then All Picture will wo= rk fine.
>=3B >=3B
>=3B >=3B Yeah=2C we can think of viewing = selected pictures in slideshow.
>=3B >=3B
>=3B >=3B
IDE= A - =3B>=3B >=3B *Videos:-
>=3B >=3B *The full sc= reen mode toggle button can be added into video section so
>=3B >=3B= that the user can directly watch the video in full screen mode. Also=2C ma= ny
>=3B >=3B a times=2C it happens that the user downloads the subti= tles of the movie
>=3B >=3B which he/she wants to watch as the movie= is not in his/her native language.
>=3B >=3B For eg. if the movie's= name is abc.avi=2C the subtitle's file is renamed to
>=3B >=3B abc.= en.srt in order to view the subtitle along with the movie in media
>= =3B >=3B player. The plasma media center is unable to show the subtitles = when the
>=3B >=3B movie is being played.
>=3B >=3B *
>= =3B >=3B *
>=3B >=3B
>=3B >=3B
>=3B >=3B Earlier Ful= l screen Icon was in Media Player but it didn't fit well there
>=3B &g= t=3B so we moved it into configuration section in HomeScreen.
>=3B >= =3B Yeah=2C Video subtitle doesn't work for all possible subtitles file. Ri= ght
>=3B >=3B now it works only for ffile with filename.srt file. It= needs to be improved
>=3B >=3B to work with all kinds of subtitle f= iles.
>=3B >=3B
>=3B >=3B **Kindly review the points mentione= d above and please give me your

>=3B= >=3B the latter one will be expensive and limited (in terms of Inter-pro= cess

>=3B >=3B mentioned = above=2C a program can run many instants of it at the same time
>=3B &= gt=3B which also share same memory/address space. Further=2C Interthread>=3B >=3B communication is also easily done and inexpensive as well. T= his concept can
>=3B >=3B also be used to compare many pictures simu= ltaneously and then rate it and
>=3B >=3B tag your peers and share i= t (the feature of "sharing on social networking
>=3B >=3B site") .>=3B >=3B
>=3B >=3B I have an experience of working with multi= - threading in Java as I built
>=3B >=3B quite a few applets in my f= irst year of college. So I think above mentioned
>=3B >=3B features = can also be coded in Qt platform.
>=3B >=3B Synchronization feature-= I would like to discuss with you on IRC as I am
>=3B >=3B having so= me queries related to its implementation.
>=3B >=3B I would like to = know whether a scripting language like perl etc be used to
>=3B >=3B= introduce some more features based upon socket programming in media-
&g= t=3B >=3B center?

>=3B >=3B Dear *mam=2C
>=3B >=3B I=2C Saurabh Jain=2C am= a sophomore=2C B.Tech in Computer Science and
>=3B >=3B Engineering= student at IIT Mandi. I would like to participate in this
>=3B >=3B= year's google summer of code 2013 and therefore went through the projects<= br>>=3B >=3B listed by KDE organisation. I explored a couple of those p= rojects
>=3B >=3B thoroughly and hence=2C I would like to share some= ideas and ask queries
>=3B >=3B related to this project with title-= *Improvements and enhancements for
>=3B >=3B Plasma Media Center. *=
>=3B >=3B I recently installed the software on my linux system and = found this
>=3B >=3B project idea to be quite an awesome to begin wi= th. The all-in-one
>=3B >=3B integration keeps it apart from other s= oftware. Some additional features
>=3B >=3B like implementing a sear= ch engine which shows all the results irrespective
>=3B >=3B of whet= her its a music=2C picture or video. Using the concept of
>=3B >=3B = multi-threading=2C multiple files of same type can be executed in parallel.=
>=3B >=3B Using this feature=2C if the user wants to compare the tw= o files=2C in case of
>=3B >=3B pictures=2C then he/she can do it wi= th ease. Another feature which is
>=3B >=3B synchronizing your files= stored on the mobile device can also be added.
>=3B >=3B Sharing of= files on the social networking site can also be incorporated in
>=3B = >=3B this software which can be done using the concept of socket programm= ing.
>=3B >=3B At present=2C based upon my experience in using this = software=2C any file like
>=3B >=3B a song etc cannot be directly pl= ayed with this application by just right
>=3B >=3B clicking on that = file and then choosing this application in the "open with"
>=3B >=3B= menu option. Adding this feature will make the user to play the file
&g= t=3B >=3B directly rather than first opening the software and then browsi= ng the file
>=3B >=3B in the directory=2C in case the file is not al= ready present there in the
>=3B >=3B media center.
>=3B >=3B<= br>>=3B >=3B Kindly let me know your opinions on the above mentioned id= eas.
