"Party mode" ununderstandable and undocumented

Submitted by Johnathon Tinsley

Link to original bug (#572651)

Description

Originally reported on Ubuntu Launchpad, report: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/rhythmbox/+bug/329389

The manual does not explain what "party mode" is. The status bar help text is not helpful at all; when you hover the cursor over the Party Mode menu entry, it laconically says "Change the status of the party mode". (Is that even English?)

I was scared that it would ruin all my playlists and send my email address to the spammers, but I tried it anyway. It seems to toggle a full-screen view. Then why is it not called "Full Screen"? Does it do something more?

The top Google hit http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=694932 seems inconclusive to me. Does Party mode involve changes in how the play queue can be manipulated and/or how the computer can be used?

Minimal fix:

  • Describe Party Mode in the on-line help

Bonus points:

  • Improve the Status bar help text
