System theme sorts this out. http://addons.songbirdnest.com/addon/...

Would be great if this was finished and made the default theme for our beloved bird.

Hi There. This seems to be a common problem for a number of users. To help get this issue fixed please can you make your comments / click "I have this problem too" on http://getsatisfaction.com/songbird/t...

Hopefully this will help the devs proratise it.

Slate8 reported a problem in Songbird on July 22, 2009 18:45:

Sorting addons by last updated seems to be broken.

Something that I *think* might be an issue; when I sort addons by "Last Updated" at http://addons.songbirdnest.com/addons I keep gettng the same ones. The Ne+ feather has been "Updated about 5 hours ago" for a couple of weeks now.

This is the url generated by the "Order by" form on the addons list: http://addons.songbirdnest.com/addons...

Think there's something fishy going on :)

A comment on the idea "Awesome Library Bar!" in Songbird:

Couldn't agree more. The current library search constantly freezes Songbird. This idea will be a killer feature if it is fast. – Slate8, on July 05, 2009 11:48

Slate8 replied on June 18, 2009 10:25 to the idea "Pidgin "Now Playing" for Songbird" in Songbird:

There's a new add-on that gives Songbird an MPRIS interface http://addons.songbirdnest.com/addon/...

In theory this should allow us to use MPRIS plugins in Pidgin to update messenger status with track details. I've not had any luck doing this yet but thought I'd mention it in case anyone else wants to try.

Slate8 replied on June 18, 2009 09:57 to the idea "Change the default theme. It looks like rubbish." in Songbird:

It's all about the system theme for me (http://addons.songbirdnest.com/addon/...), this would get my vote for being default (if it gets a bit of TLC). What could be more familiar than having Songbird look like your OS's native apps?

Maybe we should be looking to get this going on Empathy rather than Pidgin based on the recent news: http://blog.gunbladeiv.com/2009/06/em...
