Bug#533728: rhythmbox: Manual inaccuracies

[John Goerzen]

Package: rhythmbox
Version: 0.12.1-1
Severity: normal

I went to Help -> Contents.

I was looking at the media player source, and it told me that
Rhythmbox can't write anything to a portable device -- which is quite
untrue, as it's been able to do this to an iPod for some time now.

In the Library source area, it said that it can't write tags out to
files, either.  I guess I need to go test this, but it smells fishy as
well.

If the documentation is going to be so inaccurate, I wonder if it
should just be removed?
