GUI changes for v3.0

[Orion]

And what about
- a second thumbnail browser ?
- a server feature that would allow one to use create a collection from an audio server (for example Plex, Emby, Minimserver, etc.) ?
Sorry if I ask something that is impossible... I can't know it is if I don't ask.

Noticed the following glitch. Happens in playlists with track view, when I select another track.

well i managed to reproduce it once but i dont know how and havent been able to reproduce since, so i will leave this unsolved.
If you are able to find reproducable sreps then let me know.
The only thing i do remeber doing was switching the active tab and back again

edit:
i can reproduce incorrect behavior if the view is changed between album and tracks and track detail. Its possible it is related so it might be fixed for the next update. When its available could you confirm

Had no problems since latest version, so count this as solved

I came across some weird behaviour with Ratings in the Library Explorer. Only happens when No Filter selected. Column Browser is also fine.

what "Sort By" value are you using (right click on the header)

The screenshot shows Year/Album. But whatever Sort By field(s) I choose, still getting duplicate ratings. THe list can change however. E.g. when I have only Title as Sort By, I get 5 times the 3,5 stars in the list.

with show splash screen on startup in v3.0, it doesn't seem to be displayed on the screen as long as in v2.5.
was a change made to the timing or is Windows 10 really that much faster?

I just noticed that sometimes when I use "Send To > Use File to Replace Another File" I get a confirmation dialog, and sometimes I don't.  I can't tell if there's any pattern to it.  Happens even within the same album.

On v2.5, if you switch from album view to track details view, thumbnail browser immediately displays track count instead of album count. But v3 requires reopening of thumbnail browser to change the displayed count.

MB is much faster starting up

I somehow managed to drag the podcast panel beneath the left sidebar. the most left column (title) is now hidden for the most part:

Confirming that the latest patch fixed this.

Not sure if this is something on my end, but it happens with every skin. When viewing the compactplayer with TM, the panel is compressed severely to the left side and the rest of the panel is completely transparent.


Also, not sure if intentional but to change compactplayer settings, you must navigate to main player>edit>pref>layout2>config. This seems a long way from the compactplayer, It wouldbe nice to access settings from within the player itself as with v2.5.

Still on compactplayer topic, I wish we still had options for display of progress bar (top/bottom), progressbar button, and metro buttons. Just my preference.

Problem solved. I also notice expand buttons are added (or displayed correct now)
