Description Alex Fiestas 2012-09-29 17:44:07 UTC
In the kded KCM there is an option called: Now playing... presence: Enabled which is enabled by default.

Discussed with d_ed about this, he told me that Now Playing won't be enabled even if this option is enabled, that this option enables the option in the contact list.

So, either way:
-In case it enables the actual now playing, it should be off by default.
-In case it enables an option... why do we need that? and option that enables an option?

Reproducible: Always

Actual Results:

The option to in the config to enable now playing is pointless. It doesn't activate until you enable it from the combo box. If this isn't enable you get a dialog telling you to enable this.

Changed title. Set to unconfirmed, and flagged for discussion.

Refactor now playing plugin

Enable option now behaves as "enable on login", and changes at contact
list will be temporary for this login. And use requested presence to
evaluate the new presence by this plugin.
