2.)Vis/ album art to be added as a mode

3.) keyboard shortcuts to have more than one key, ie Ctrl-Alt-G as a keyboard shortcut

Only a few suggestions for the software:

A}Is there a chance you can make it so you can edit what browsing options frodoplayer uses.
I never browse my media by artist or genre or albumn, and it's a hassle to arrow over to browse by folder. All i'm asking is for an option to disable/enable the different ways individually.

B} an option to disable mp3 id3 tags and just have it display the file name.

**liquid_smoke** · 05-12-2004, 01:53 AM

this is more of a question, but if its not already supported then i guess its a feature request.

can any of the items have transparency?

Thanks

I am trying to make my lists transparent. But as they are not standard controls
I have to do a little more work. This is the only planned transparency and I
do not guarantee I can pull it off.

**liquid_smoke** · 05-13-2004, 10:18 PM

sweet, I hope you can pull it off

**liquid_smoke** · 05-13-2004, 10:20 PM

Speaking of the list

Is there a way currently to format the text more. I want to increase the distance between each line of text to be farther apart so i dont click on the wrong line by accident. Look at media engine for an example of what im talking about.
