Roadmap

this is pretty cool, you guys are working hard, i dunno squat about coding and programming but i'll help in the translation section

Honestly i can't believe Songbird can't simply burn a playlist to a CD Please add this to future development. Otherwise i love the program and everything it offers i just want to be able to burn a CD straight from Songbird edited 23:08, 3 Nov 2009

wma support for songbird under MacOSX ,please!

Full proper eMusic (with full album download support) and Magnatune stores integration!!!!!!!!!!

eMusic should be supporting Songbird instead of/in addition to their own application!

I found this software because it plays FLAC.
It does that fine - but I hate the feature that it loads all the music files on my computer without asking me.

Hi, i love this software because of the flac cd ripping feature that will came with the next relase.
I have mac os x, i expect that the relase will came out soon.

A Warning to all users of Flac-encoded music: When I enabled yesterday the music management feature for the first time, Songbird converted without any further warning all my flac files into mp3s and destroyed the originals. Well done! - Fortunately I was only testing.

Hi. I just noticed (it became evident using the cover-flow add-on) that the library doesn't automatically sort albums with SAME names but DIFFERENT artists as different albums. i.E., when you sort by Album, and come to the section where you have all your Greatest Hits albums (I happen to have a bunch.. tom petty, zeppelin, ccr, etc), Songbird won't differentiate between one album and the next; the Artists appear randomly dispersed, EVEN IF each album has the album-artist identified. This should be fairly easy to fix, and would do a lot to clean up the library.

Cheers -- I love this program; I've been searching forever for a linux-compatible music player to rival iTunes.

Well, songbird is without a doubt the best media player for linux, but I still miss mtp support (on linux) and a better handling of m4a tags, songbird is not able to save lyrics in m4a files nor read the replaygain data (at least for me) while it works with my mp3s (which are only a few percentage of my library though).
Thanks anyway, hope it will be added soon! edited 04:41, 27 Nov 2009

I tried "Manage Music" feature out and annoyingly I saw too late, that Title-Nr. is only 1 digit (if the number has only one digit) - it should consist at least of 2 digits and a leading zero like 09 or 02 instead of 9 or 2 (or better: it should be configurable as %% for 2 digits, %%% for 3 digits or % for minimum digits as possible).

This is very important to order files correct, because 9 sorts after 10 or 11 then, but should sort before (which would be automatic if it were 09)

Also I'd like to order my albums with directory name "<artist> - <album>" and not "<artist>/<album>" - The first one should be possible to configure as well. (The / folder seperator should be exchangable by any other sign)

i' love to see the itouch support... I HAD a first gen nano before this so it's a big leap. most of my music library is in .flac and winamp has serious troubles seeing my ipod as a storage device so I thought i'd browse around for a decent program and I found songbird. LOVE IT so far, but I really wish I could just sync some of my music... i'm in dire need! can we see this before february? yes? PLEASSE ;___;

I will be happy to use Songbird only if it supports wma on Mac!!!!! Make it support all like VLC!!! And not with Flip4Mac cause that sucks. PLEASE make it play WMA!!!!!!!!!!

I think a team-up with pandora internet radio would be awesome. Having a pandora add-on in Songbird would be very handy.

A functionnality that could be really usefull is a "cloud tag" function allowing user to tag a song with words "Cooldanse" and use these tags to filters/research songs like: cooldanse + electro + lenght>3.

That different than playlist (more flexible when searching a song)

wma support on mac,the only request!
