[QUOTE="msj33, post: 674129, member: 16747"] [b]Re: Rockstar Beta 1.0 - the ultimate online music plugin (Spotify&Grooveshark)[/b] Hi again Seco. Have just tested your Beta of Rockstar, and everything is running great here on MP 1.1 & StreamedMP (1.2 Alpha does not work). Only running grooveshark account(no spotify in Denmark) Have some ideas/ suggestions to your skin layout/design. For the ordinary MP user, the layout and menu navigation is easy and logical, and is learned by using MP in everyday use. But unfortunately this is not the case for users that never or rarely has user MP before. Therefore I have some suggestions to ease the navigation in Rockstar. -Remove the "default" in the naming "Default playlist". There is only 1 editable playlist where the user can add new tracks to, so "Playlist" name says it all. -Rename "Playlists" to "Other Playlists" or "Saved playlists" - Name has to differ from above suggestion. -When navigating to Right pane, the menu disappears - Should always be visible - Non-MP users/guests will need guidance if menu is not visible. Maybe move Coverart/Info to bottom of skin -Easy page switching - Scrolling can be a P*** - Right arrow should be configures to turn 1 page, when in Right pane. Feature requests: - Create project on Google code - Easier to maintain bugfixing & logging than in these forums (Like Moving pictures, StremedMP etc) - A quick Hotkey for Search Keyboard -Option to save created/Edited playlists (seems possible since you can delete tracks from existing grooveshark playlists. -Split view(Search/Playlist) - Being able to search and add new songs, and see existing playlist at the same time is - continous naviation forth and back is time consuming and confusing for non MP users. (Maybe take a look at the split screen view in MPGrooveshark plugin) -Fade into next song - Although buffering runs smoothly and without any big delays - Fading option is nice in "party mode". -Buy song/Album Button that links to Amazon or similar website - Music is in general NOT free to distribute/make - Give the users option to buy the song/album - That may contribute to keeping RIAA away for a while! -Screensaver with configuable timer - Showing big cover/artwork, song/artist/album name, Elapsed time & next song. Hope you can use the feedback - Great Work Seco :-) /Morten [/QUOTE]
