All the bugs I reported earlier are gone too, cheers!
Yeah, I'm not super happy with "Playlist Player" either. Sounds pretty corny. It's more like a "Playing Now Playlist Player". ugh. I guess the function is that it's a cut-down main player, which is best described as "Mini".
I think someone earlier suggested renaming the current "Mini-Player" to be "Micro-Player" and make this one the Mini-Player. That probably makes sense, but I don't like "Micro-Player", because that sounds really really tiny to me, and I don't think of it being that micro.
How about:
"Mini-Player" becomes => "Mini-bar Player"
"Playlist Player" becomes => "Mini-window Player"
Still not super happy with these either...
Something unexpected: I can show playlist player at the same time as mini-player using the hotkey. And close it with the hotkey. But when I click "X" expecting to close playlist player, it quits MB completely.
(I know this makes sense, as X always quits, but when it pops up separately I expect I can close it like in WinAmp or other player that have popup extra windows).
Could there be a view switch button, like in Windows Media Player, to swap between views?
- provides a way to cycle through views.
- small enough to not take up too much space
- same icon on button in all three interfaces to make it recognisable: main player, mini-player, playlist player
- switches to the next view in a defined order.
- could be in the Control bar next to minimise/maximise/close
At the moment I worry for new users this feature isn't intuitive enough
