If so, how about showing the settings all the time without having any devices connected?
If so, how about showing the settings all the time without having any devices connected?I've always hoped for a dropdown-style menu of the various devices (and their settings) that had previously been connected and sync'd. Whether or not they are currently connected. And the ability to delete a device when it's no longer in one's possession.
I know this has been requested before. +1, sometimes I want to adjust or look at settings without plugging the device in.Yes. +1
i have made some further GUI rearrangements so the settings are all accessible from the summary panel and i have added the ability to edit settings for offline devices.Great news! I look forward to seeing it. Thanks Steven.

I would like to suggest that once a device is selected and the configure screen is visible, that the device name be present somewhere. If I didn't have such drastically different configurations, I wouldn't have known which device I was working with.are you refering to the edit configure dialog in the preferences/ devices window? The device name is in the dialog header bar
http://musicbee.niblseed.com/V2_5/MusicBee_Exe_Patched.zipFast response. Thanks. But someone else will have to test this before connecting any devices.
to fix the bug reported by phred
are you refering to the edit configure dialog in the preferences/ devices window? The device name is in the dialog header barYes. Like I said, some people (apparently myself included) don't read -all- the words. It's there. I guess it just wasn't were I expected it. IOW in the window itself rather than in the header.
i havent changed anything about the synching itself, at least not intentionally. Does synching all the playlist tracks happen every time?No it doesn't, it is very random. And for instance, I just retried a sync without changing anything neither on the PC nor on the phone since last sync, and this time, just one track got copied (it shouldn't have because it was already there...). The next time, nothing was synced (which was expected).
And what do you mean by "to get them synced properly again" for your playlists?The playlists themselves (the one that are copied at the end of the process, not the songs) could not be copied. I had to remove the lists from the device first (there were already there from a previous sync), then it worked and they got synced properly. And it works since... This was the first time I met this issue.

i have increased the icon size to 96px and should be sharp for all device types now. Also some minor tweaks to how the Sync Preview is invoked.
on-the-fly conversion only appears to be using 1 encoding thread, not the 3 I have set in Preferences> File Convertersnothing has been touched with regards to the actual sync and its working fine for me with multiple encoding threads so i dont think i can help with this

has the actual reporting of the sync now changed to be sequential where it was previously "as-it-happens" ?
I've noticed during a sync that all transcoded files get deleted and then re-converted and copied back to the device.
Would it be possible to add an option to not delete a file if the extension matches the one from the conversion settings?
deletion and file copy should be mutually exclusive in the MB synch logic so that shouldnt be happening for the same file in the same location.
I expect what is happening is you have changed one or more of the tags that affects the file's location, so its deleting the file from the old location.
As a test you could edit one file without changing a naming tag in that file. If you do a preview or a synch, you should see it encodes/updates only.
And if you do the same again, but change a naming tag you should also see a delete action
Also, there was a bug I found. When scrolling up in down in the settings with the mouse wheel the scroll bar on the right doesn't update.thats fixed for the next v2.5 update
