I gotta go with Nila on this one.
I'd really really really like (need?) to see different icons for different types of files. Audio, Video, and Image.
And I really really think it's time to retire the brown jukebox icon. XP is capable of such nice icons. It's a shame not to take advantage of that.
Three cheers for this suggestion!
It's just weird having the same icon (and filedescription: Mediajukebox.file) for everything that is associated with MJ. Audio, Video, Playlist, and Images
should all have different icons.
I'd love to see an "Association Studio" built into MJ that I can use to customize what icon shows for a given association, as well as what its file description is.
My reasoning for this:
1. As far as the Association Studio idea goes, sure, it could be done via Windows, but then you have to go through ALL of your associations and hope that you find the MJ ones. If MJ's Association Studio only showed the associations that it was capable of controlling, you could edit them all easily right then and there. Plus, you could make little templates that you could apply easily to different filetypes.
2. Do a search of your hard drive for .mp3, .m3u, .avi, and .jpg -- In the results window, sort by "type" -- they're all the same type, "Mediajukebox.file"
3. Currently, when you change one type, they ALL change. Yuk!
The brown icon is, IMHO, not so great. v9 is a great opportunity to "get pretty!"
