    No.
    Plus a way to sort lists by recently added
    Use a smartlist in iTunes for recently added songs. NBB will show it in the playlists.
    and do you have any way to play videos, tv shows, etc in our libraries.
    No. Try Amp or FrontRow.

    Release 6C

    Public Release 6C-

    Main Application

    New Features: the mouse will now show itself while the command key is held down. Mostly for debugging but maybe others will find it useful.

    Bug Fixes:

    Changes:

    Known Issues: still color changing and scaling issues that have persisted for a while. (I haven't even attempted...)
    Nothing new

    Music Module

    New Features: finished the key bindings as described in the users guide

    Bug Fixes:

    Changes: some control graphics have been changed.
    focus rings now only draw around the button shapes instead of ugly rectangles
    more minor adjustments for higher resolutions


    Known Issues: The filter tray is somthin of a mess still but I cleaned it up a bit
    there are still some residual issues surrounding control focus and resolution that I'm inclined to overlook for the moment

    give me a week and NBB will have a new video module.

    Edit: as for the search by letter NBB has that but only if you have a keyboard. in the future the magnifying glass button will bring up a virtual keyboard for this

    Hey I had a question...Is it possible to map the Apple remote to use with this because I would like the ability if it was possible. I finally got my install done this past weekend and it has been great so far.

    Can't wait to see Neon Boombox grow.

    Public Release 7

    !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
    please read the Known issues for your own good. It will help you avoid an application crash and help me not get a dozen complaints
    !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    Finally Neon Boombox has another module! it is a video player but is not yet fully functional. I am going to create a custom controller much like the one shown when you are watching a movie in quicktime full screen only bigger and more finger friendly.

    I am also going to be making alot of bug fix releases over the next few weeks. My list of known bugs and issues is getting too long. that said it will likely be a while before any new features get implemented, tho I am currently researching XM radio support which should be the next big feature.

    Also i am still looking for some willing volunteers to help me hunt for bugs please PM me if you are willing. Suitable volunteers will receive special "seed" builds to help generate more bug free and stable releases.

    Public Release 7-

    Main Application

    New Features: Added a video module.
    Added notifications to allow other modules to request silence

    Bug Fixes:

    Changes: minor dial adjustments for resolution independence
    window animations are much faster and smoother now (in most cases)

    Known Issues: still color changing and scaling issues that have persisted for a while. (I haven't even attempted...)
    Nothing new

    some minor thread synchronization issues will cause an application crash if certain child threads have not finished before attempting to launch a module. workaround is to wait about 10 seconds after app launch before attempting to launch a module.

    Music Module

    New Features: ability to list by and play podcasts
    ability to list audiobooks. Will not play

    Bug Fixes: addressed some issues with control focus getting lost.
    fixed a long ignored issue listing tracks that have both no artist and no album
    table view now loads initial data as if the user had pushed the first button on the left instead of always being "artist"
    fixed an issue where hitting the space key while a table view containing songs would not play the highlighted song
    fixed a bug where the music module would be rendering the visualizer off screen and completely hog the CPU

    Changes: iTunes library tracks containing video are no longer listed. use the video module to play these.
    General performance enhancements
    uses objective-c 2.0 "fast enumeration"
    expanded Music Module multi-threading
    expose (and presumably spaces) can no longer be used when the visualizer controls the screen in order to prevent crashing
    improved track shuffling

    Known Issues: podcasts must have both an artist and album in order to list
    books must have an artist in order to list
    some windows aren't behaving properly due to some fundamental changes in the works, but won't affect application use
    audio books cannot yet be played due to quicktime incompatibility with the .aa format

    Video Module

    New Features: play TV shows from iTunes library
    play movies from iTunes library
    play video podcasts from iTunes library
    play music videos from iTunes library

    Bug Fixes:

    Changes:

    Known Issues: Not yet fully functional. missing many features including basic playback controls.
    Tv shows without a season will list under season 0
    podcasts and music videos must have artist and album tin order to be listed
    tv shows must be listed with a series in order to be listed

    Ok I have fixed a number of bugs that were present in the last release. I'm rather embarrassed at some of them even seeing the light of day!

    I still have a long way to go.

    Public Release 7B-

    Main Application

    New Features:

    Bug Fixes: addressed the thread synchronization issues that could potentially cause an application crash if the user attempted an action before certain threads had terminated side effect is that user may have to push the music button again to launch the module. other issues with the launch thread remain so it is still advised to wait briefly before attempting to launch the music module

    Changes:

    Known Issues: nothing new

    Music Module

    New Features:

    Bug Fixes: Fixed an issue where the module would shuffle the tracks after choosing a track to play causing a different track to play. shuffling now happens before the tracks are loaded into the table
    Fixed a sorting issue when viewing the library by song
    Fixed an issue where the music module would always load podcasts or books for the first artist in the list
    Podcasts and Books can now be shuffled

    Changes:

    Known Issues: playing a group of songs by double clicking an artist/album etc will not yet sort the tracks accordingly giving a slightly "randomized" feel to the playlist

    Video Module

    New Features:

    Bug Fixes:

    Changes:

    Known Issues: nothing new

    Changes: Browser filter tray is no longer a window of its own

    Known Issues: browser filter tray scaling is not yet 100% accurate. should look fine on resolutions around 800x600

    Not sure if this has been noted but the video module was always playing the first video regardless of which one I selected.
