<div dir="ltr">Hi Harish,<br><div><div class="gmail_extra"><br></div><div class="gmail_extra">Good that you are interested in the Simon integration. This project will require additions to both Simon and PMC so you will have to closely work with Peter Grasch along with the Plasma team to come up with a proposal.<br>

I find the project "Integrate with Simon" quite interesting and would actually like to work on the same for my GSoC project if possible.</div>

<div>2. Enabling profiles(admin and subversions where an individual can store personal settings) in PMC.</div></div></div></div></blockquote><div><br></div><div>I don't understand this.<br> <br></div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex">
<div dir="ltr"><div class="gmail_extra"><div class="gmail_quote"><div>3. Several basic features like when viewing Pictures, and option to rotate/zoom/crop/add effects would be great.<br>
</div><div> When playing songs, adding basic features like "Shuffle", "Repeat" and fetching lyrics(and subtitles for videos) should be added.</div></div></div></div></blockquote><div><br></div><div>
Keep in mind that a media center should have only basic features. In that way, I'll want to only add rotate and zoom.<br> <br></div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex">
<div dir="ltr"><div class="gmail_extra"><div class="gmail_quote"><div>4. It'd be great if the songs being played can be viewed with the album cover and some basic visualization also being added.</div>
<div> Sorting the list of songs and adding ratings can be included.</div></div></div></div></blockquote><div><br></div><div>Album covers are already shown. Visualization will be a great idea, but you'll have to do some research on how to implement it. I'll be working on sorting shortly after we move to Baloo and same about ratings.<br>

<div> add the source)</div></div></div></div></blockquote><div><br></div><div>I find this pretty irritating in XBMC, and personally don't want that in PMC.<br> <br></div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex">
<div dir="ltr"><div class="gmail_extra"><div class="gmail_quote"><div>6. The current playing track must not be stopped if a picture is opened for viewing(can this be considered a bug?)</div></div></div></div></blockquote>
<div><br></div><div>This is expected behavior. If you want music tom play while viewing pictures, play the music first and then go to the pictures.<br> <br></div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex">
<div dir="ltr"><div class="gmail_extra"><div class="gmail_quote"><div> 7.

<div> cool as well.</div></div></div></div></blockquote><div><br></div><div>Not sure if we want this.<br> <br></div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex">
