What single click thingy? My Lilliput does the right click with >2 second hold and it has never caused me any problems.

I don't think that is something he can do. When you click an embedded window, you are clicking that window, not CF. He would have to intercept every mouse-click, prevent all other applications from recieveing it, then decide if it is a left or right click, and then send the appropriate click to the application at the exact same X/Y as the mouse pointer. This is somewhat difficult, very messy, slows everything down, and is not something I would want CF doing to my system.

Request: CF 1.4 still doesn't resume from the previous time (it just resumes from the begining of the previous track).

Also, I wish I could go back further than one track when in random mode. The way we handle random on the PhatBox is that everytime random is turned on, we make an array, randomize it, and then play it in order. This allows you to go back an infinate number of tracks, plus it makes it so you will never hear the same song until every other song has played (I have ~4000 songs and I have definatly noticed that there are a few songs that seem to come up often when in random).

Firstly! congrats on great frontend, looking forward to all the improvements and bug fixes to come.

Secondly my suggestions! :-

A proper shuffle mode. At the moment theres random and repeat modes, can we get a shuffle in there too? wot i mean by that is, 'random' mode works as it does, randomly picking a song out of the playlist ignoring any previous songs have been played.....but a shuffle would take into account the previously played songs and not play them again until the playlists end or mode is changed etc - pretty much like most music players use shuffle. This would also allow you to go back to previous songs played easily (say you skipped a couple of songs too many and wanted to trace your steps back). I know in frodoplayers way of doing in you can manually pick a song and play it, yet it won't interfere with the shuffled playlist - i like that

Multiple ways of sorting songs, say give use two options, first sort of this, then sort by that. e.g. sort by album then artist or sort by directory then tracknumber. If you used 2 multi-choice boxes then people can choose whatever combination they like. Common options i can think of are Artist, Title, Tracknumber, Album, Filename, Directory, genre and also release date mentioned in an earlier post.

A minimize button somewhere...anywhere, even if its hidden in a menu. I've had times ive wanted to drop back to the desktop quickly and have had to exit CF then go bak in again.

Second the resume from same point in a song as in previous post!

Thats me brain rattled for now! keep up the good work!

Your "shuffle" request was in my previous post as well LOL. I've been requesting sort options repeatedly for some time too. I definatly agree there should be a minimize button. It should be right next to the Exit button. If CF is the shell it should launch explorer as the shell and then minimize CF too if possible (just like the exit button does).
