Bug Description
Exaile Version: 0.3.2.1
Plugin Version 0.9
under the tools>Connect to Daap menu, the only option appears to be "manually." In addition previous entries are not remembered. This forces the user to remember the address of the server and manually type it in each time.
The plugin would be far more friendly if recent shares were at least remembered, drop down style. Perhaps an auto-connect option would be nice as well, for shares permanently available.
Ideally, a system like the one used for radio stations, where a Daap tab appears, and one can add daap shares like they do radio stations would be ideal.
To post a comment you must log in.
If Avahi and its python bindings are installed correctly, and the DAAP server is on the same network and set to broadcast its presence, it should show up as an option in that list. I'd recommend you check your setup to ensure those requirements are fulfilled.
That said, a recently-used list is still a good idea,
