what do you not like about it other than it's "crappo"? In 1.2 videos were seperated in a completly different section, which is not how it's going to work anymore... Give me some suggestions...Quote:

I have considered adding the slider back in fullscreen...

Probably in here somewhere...how can I get the GPS to work?
Also, if someone could explain how exactly to get the apps to work?
there is no integrated GPS in this version... you need to setup an external application to run the GPS software of your choice...Quote:

but i do agree with Frankino here. video management in CF is very sloppy imho.
edit: heres the post where you mentioned integrated dvd and video in one section)
it's an opinion thing... I had loads of requests to integrate video/music into one section, which is how it's now done, and many people happy with it... The setup is much easier to use with one manager to choose your music or videos... Then with autoplay you can simply insert a DVD, while in the media section, and DVD will overlay ontop... So you essentially never have to leave the one media section, which is the way I like it... You also now have the ability to create video playlists, which you never had before... you can also have a playlist that has music and videos in the same playlist, which is a feature I use daily to load up an artists music and music videos... You only have to learn one manager... there are way more positives IMHO... what exactly do you consider sloppy about the video managment? You can do everything you could before plus much much more and from one location instead of the 4 sections you had to use before...Quote:

Furthermore, and I will warn you this is a big request... it would be nice to be able to make multiple librarys for different things and then shell execute them (like a view for NES games that launches the NES emulator) instead of having to embed external media-browsers. Have you ever used Meedio? This is what I am thinking of.
I like the current Video setup. Dont know what else needs to be done to it.
i tend to agree.. i like the setup as it is...
but then it suits my needs.. it may not suit someone elses..
but you can't please everyone all the time...
(i'm happy so far)
sorry, I meant crappy :PQuote:

By the way I get some errors loading a whole video directory, CF freezes often loading the preview and it seems slow loading my videos; and I have problems with sound, I have to press FF to hear video sound.
I liked 1.2 way because I like to keep music and vids separated, that's all. Maybe you can have both, including video support also into dvd section or maybe changing dvd section in something like Movie section. this is my idea, obviusly if I'm the only one thinking this way I'll manage :)
