Location of iTunes XML file is hard coded

[RAFFI TEA]

This bug has already been reported to mixxx-devel mailing list! I put it here for the sake of completeness.

================BUG DESCRIPTION===================
The hard-coded iTunes XML path in Mixxx assumes an English version of Windows.
Attached you find patches for itunesfeature.cpp, itunestrackmodel.cpp and itunestrackmodel.h.

I removed the corresponding DEFINES and wrote a static method ITunesTrackModel::getiTunesMusicPath() which reads "HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\User
Shell Folders" from registry to obtain the path of the music folder.

Kind regards

Tobias

Thanks Tobias -- I'll get to this soon.

Hey Tobias,

I added your code to lookup the library path using QSettings to our trunk in revision 2295. Could you please try it out to make sure that what I committed works as desired?

Thanks,
RJ

Hey RJ,

Thanks for the commit. I just tested revision 2295 and it did not work.

Reason:
Your changed my
 #elif defined(__WINDOWS__)
to
 #elif defined(__WIN__)

I claim you looked at Albert's original DEFINES. However, __WIN__ is
nowhere defined in SConscript, but __WNDOWS__ :-)
