Hi Shantanu,
Thanks for the feedback. I have mentioned a lot more ideas which were categorized by \
different sections like Music, etc. in my earlier mails to Sinny. I hope you went \
through them all. If not, please visit those mails and give me your feedback for that \
as well. For the convenience of reading those emails with ease, I have mentioned the \
word "IDEA" just before the idea is being explained. Thanks and Regards,Saurabh \
Jain

enhancements for<br>> > Plasma Media Center. *<br>> > I recently \
installed the software on my linux system and found this<br>> > project idea to \
be quite an awesome to begin with. The all-in-one<br>> > integration keeps it \
apart from other software. Some additional features<br>> > like implementing a \
search engine which shows all the results irrespective<br>> > of whether its a \
music, picture or video. Using the concept of<br>> > multi-threading, multiple \
files of same type can be executed in parallel.<br>> > Using this feature, if \
the user wants to compare the two files, in case of<br>> > pictures, then \
he/she can do it with ease. Another feature which is<br>> > synchronizing your \
files stored on the mobile device can also be added.<br>> > Sharing of files on \
the social networking site can also be incorporated in<br>> > this software \
which can be done using the concept of socket programming.<br>> > At present, \
based upon my experience in using this software, any file like<br>> > a song \
etc cannot be directly played with this application by just right<br>> > \
clicking on that file and then choosing this application in the "open with"<br>> \
> menu option. Adding this feature will make the user to play the file<br>> \
> directly rather than first opening the software and then browsing the \
file<br>> > in the directory, in case the file is not already present there in \
the<br>> > media center.<br>> ><br>> > Kindly let me know your \
opinions on the above mentioned ideas.<br>> ><br>> > Regards and \
