I agree with pondlife here -- what does "Cuesheet support" have to do with playlists? You can play a file with associated cuesheet "without" handling a playlist (remember, users won't notice about the internal dynamic playlist, and I guess most also don't want to care about it). Shuffle and Repeat are play *modes*. last.fm is definitely a playback setting -- it logs what gets played, not what's part of the playlist. If I enable repeat and play the same track all over that gets logged ... I also agree that it would be better to evolve the menus instead of redoing everything the same time. The mentioned inline settings are a nice idea. And to try reviving that again: we had a patch for this some years ago and I quite liked the result, especially the two-lined version (just noticed that the current trigger screen is rather similar to that). From my point of view something like that could also greatly improve the menu "experience". The old thread is http://forums.rockbox.org/index.php?topic=5881.0 and the tracker task is FS#5833. Any thoughts on this? - Dominik Received on 2008-10-31 Page template was last modified "Tue Sep 7 00:00:02 2021" The Rockbox Crew -- Privacy Policy |
