A full function linux control point?

[Pastim]

Very good!

On one renderer (and I'll try the other later tonight):

- it starts even if the renderer is off and asks me which to use. I can cancel, wait for the renderer to start and then change device. Perfect.
- volume control works
- sequential tracks play
- windows can be resized (really useful!)
- but I can't change position within a track - I don't do this very often except when testing sequential tracks

A more difficult problem is one I've been trying to work out with simoncn. As I understand it minimsever presents 'containers' that contain potentially several ways to get at the same tracks (via different tags), and even links to whole albums containing other tracks as well. If I choose such a container in upplay I get loads of duplicate tracks and several I don't want. simoncn told me most control points do this but do not need to. I believe what they should do is just request the container once, rather than inspect its contents and send several separate requests.

I don't know if the above makes sense, but maybe you could pm simoncn for details.

If this makes no sense (and I wouldn't be surprised since I've bashed my head against the wall about it for some time), ask, and I'll try to give a really clear example of what I mean.

It's very close to being very usable indeed for me on 14.04.
