Feature Requests

i dunno if you guys are taking feature requests but i'm gonna make a couple anyway, eventually someone will add my features to their frontend or i'll have to code my own

First of all ive got all of my cds ripped as ogg files to ensure they are gapless between tracks, so i was hoping for completly gapless play between audio files, and also some way of making sure that the files are in the correct order, i have a m3u in most directories so if the program could just read the playlist when loading a particular folder and put them in the correct order, or alternativly it could look at the track number in the audio file itself.

Secondly i would love to have the ability to add bass and treble up/down buttons to the player screen, this is one of the things i miss most since not having a head unit.

Thanks!!

Sorry i have'nt seen this thread..
As for now, the 07 beta is playing gapless between tracks on my system

For the playlist function, just wait a little (

)

For the bass / treble buttons, it's not difficult to make so when i have finished the new equalizer code i will add this

He IS the man! And I have a hunch the playlist function is going to be beautiful

(as long as you don't use my skin that is)

Netsuo

First of all i must say excellent work! This looks to be the most promising front end so far.

Just some feature requests:

1 Option to sort tracks by artist, genre, album etc.
2 Search for file by title or artist
3 Save custom presets in EQ
4 Access EQ in video module
5 Switch between day/night skin

With these features i think NMC would be the best front end out there

1. unable to made this until i decide to switch to a database managed system
2. i will look to make this
3. this is allready possible (but i need to completely recode equalizer for the 07..)
4. i cant find how to make this at the moment
5. this will come

Thanks for your reply.

i see that it is possible to save EQ presets. I meant could you make it possible to save and also select presets in NMC, not only NM.

This would mean that you could adjust sound to suit a particular song or movie as you are listening to it and save it. Also if you wanted to switch between saved presets you could easily do it without adjusting each slider or going in to NM.

Thanks

This is what i say.. i only need to add a "create preset" function with the OSK and it's ok

spaceman · 11-03-2004, 05:09 PM

Excellent!!

Well, for one, the filesystem is the most efficient database...

but really, there are pros and cons... i'm not sure i prefer a database... maybe it would be possible to keep it this way, but adding an index for searching/sorting... dunno if it would work out or not...

Is the next version compatible with MP3 id3v2? If not could you pleeease add this?
