that’s whacked

attack of the clones!

half the fun of making an add-on is coming up with the name… so here’s my newest:

Attack of the Clones!

i got tired of replying to all the Songbird posts asking for the ability to remove library duplicates with “it’d be a simple add-on to write”. i finally decided to write it. i also wanted to play with our new media views feature, so i implemented this as media view.

once you’ve installed this in Songbird, go to your library and then click on the Media Views button (button the right of the search toolbar) and select “Attack of the Clones!”. the media items it will show you are all the duplicates in your library. you can select individual ones and the XUL label above the playlist widget will show the full path. simply find the ones you want to remove and right-click to remove them (from the library… i don’t remove from the filesystem)

update: duh. whoops, forgot to actually link to the damn thing. here it is! thanks mark!
