Pidgin "Now Playing" for Songbird
I think you guys should work with the Pidgin IM team in order to create a solid "Now Playing" im status that doesn't crash pidgin or songbird (The musictracker plugin often breaks iTunes). I figured since you are doing last.fm integration a pidgin plugin for now playing would be a good idea.

Inappropriate?This works very well for me:
http://pidgin-lastfm.naturalnet.de/ti...
It sets your status based on the last track you scrobbled to last.fm

Inappropriate?It will be very helpful.
Here, even musictracker isn't working (Songbird + Pidgin + Ubuntu 804)
I’m confident

Inappropriate?Hi Matt

I’m scratching my imgaginary friend

Inappropriate?yeah, check us all out with our alternative IM clients. Mind you, wouldn't expect anything less from people round here :)
I’m all about the open source

Inappropriate?running linux mint, songbird and pidgin. would love to have a working "now playing" in pidgin, based on what's playing in songbird!

Inappropriate?Maybe we should be looking to get this going on Empathy rather than Pidgin based on the recent news: http://blog.gunbladeiv.com/2009/06/em...
I’m looking forward to change

Inappropriate?There's a new add-on that gives Songbird an MPRIS interface http://addons.songbirdnest.com/addon/...
In theory this should allow us to use MPRIS plugins in Pidgin to update messenger status with track details. I've not had any luck doing this yet but thought I'd mention it in case anyone else wants to try.
I’m hopefull

Inappropriate?Any possibility of a plugin compatible for Musictracker and Pidgin on a Windows system?
