reflect current track in jabber status

[marc]

I was using banshee media player and really liked the synchronisation of my jabber status message and the current track being played. This is using the dbus message.

Would it be possible to have a plugin for this ? I have no knowledge of listen or dbus, but if nobody wants to do this, maybe I could give it a try if someone helps me with 'listen' internals :)

(btw, listen is really great and light compared to banshee)

Ok, I did a small ugly hack. I saw that svn listen has lots of changes, including plugin stuff, so I'll wait until a stable working new version before trying to write nice code. ATM, this small hack works for me.

See code at http://homes.kataplop.net/~dkm/listen There is a debian package and a tgz with source code. Mainly, I added a dbus_gajim.py, modified widget/listen.py to create a GajimStatus?() object that registers to "new-song".

Gajim would be much more happy, if listen would provide mpris. See http://trac.gajim.org/browser/trunk/src/music_track_listener.py for details. Gajim's svn version supports sending a tune instead of changing the status.
