Purity Media Flags & RD XBMC Icon

Nice, thanks for the ss.

How about media flags for surround audio files? Does xbmc even distinguish between surround and non-surround audio files?

I don't know if I understand correctly, anything in 4.0 channels or higher is surround, the channels tells you the audio is "surround".

As far as I can see in the MyMusic__.db xbmc doesn't keep track of how many channels a song has. I would love to have media flags for surround flacs, surround oggs, etc, but if xbmc doesn't distinguish between surround and non-surround, it would be rather pointless. Am I wrong?

First, there isn't such thing as flac surround per se, flac only states for the compression method not the channels, for the channels you have the channels flag.

Anyway I can see and understand what you say, I for one know what albums and songs in my collection are in "surround" or more than 4.0 channels because they are indexed in a separated folder that specifies so, but, knowing how many channels the tracks have could be nice.

Besides what I previously said XBMC doesn't index in the DB the number of channels for the music files but could do it as it does read it when is it playing, so if the skinner support it (if it is coded in the views of the skin) you could see the number of channels, with a flag or whatever when you select (play) a song.
