Re: Roadmap - [NO LONGER FIXED]

Aaaaand we're back to all the dates being in the past. Meaning the roadmap is useless, because as far as I can tell, it's not being updated at all. At least, that's what "Scheduled For Release 2017-10-01" says to me.

Does anyone even look at it? Why post it if it's not going to be updated?

Re: Android Auto features [13575, 13643]

I just bought a new car with Android Auto, and I have observations. I would rather see more of my album art, and less chrome. The player controls have way too much white space around them - the bar could be significantly shorter without affecting functionality. Honestly, I'd rather have a layout mor...

Re: 1/2 star Ratings in Android Auto

I would prefer if the stars were simply displayed the way they are on the Android app, so I could both see and set the rating easily, by tapping the correct star. One tap, almost every time (sometimes it's hard to hit that half-star right). I know the horizontal line of stars across the top would pr...

Re: Android Auto features [13575, 13643]

Excellent. Thank you. Though I could wish that more of the cover art is visible, but at least I know.

Re: Android Auto features [13575, 13643]

Is there a screenshot somewhere of exactly what you see on Android Auto? I'm curious, but I don't yet have a car where I can check it out myself.

Re: playlists

You want the three dot button in the lower right - there's an Add to Playlist entry in that menu. Also Find More From..., Properties, Delete, and Share.

Re: Album Art Isn't Visible On Lock Screen & Now Playing

I don't know if it's the same problem, but sometimes my art won't display, either. And interestingly, there are several variations: 1) album art displays in Now Playing screen, then disappears after a few seconds 2) album art is not displayed, but changing orientation of phone will make it return (o...

Re: Roadmap

Well, lookit that! Already released versions have been removed, and there are now future dates for unreleased versions! So much better, thank you!

And boy, having the next upcoming version right at the top of the page is really nice.

Re: MMA and podcasts

MMA is mostly considered a "satellite" implementation of Mediamonkey, for listening and minor editing (e.g., star ratings, add to playlist). Most complex functions are done in MMWin, and then synced to MMA. So there is a podcast browser in MMWin, which you would then sync to your phone. An...

Re: Roadmap

Yeah, I'm just saying that if all the dates on the roadmap are in the past, it looks like it isn't being updated in any way. Which is not reassuring. Change the date for MMA 5 to 2020, that's fine. But a sense that that document actually means something.

Roadmap

I would find the roadmap (http://www.ventismedia.com/mantis/roadmap_page.php) a lot more useful if some of the anticipated release dates were actually in the future. Right now, the latest date on any version is February 2017. Including MMW 5, which says "Scheduled For Release 2017-02-23" C...

Re: [REQ] Display Status from Sync

I, also, regularly see MMA delete a large number of files (often right around 500), and then re-download those same files. I keep my entire library (~5600 tracks) synced, so this isn't swapping out files from an autoplaylist. This just happened again on Saturday. It's not every sync, maybe every 4th...

Re: Switch track with slide on picture ?

So, any chance of the skip track gesture changing? Please consider all the people in their cars trying to get to the next song without taking their eyes off the road for too long. No one needs to see lyrics in the car (well, ok, no one should be looking at lyrics in the car). Personally, I vote for ...

playlists, ratings (and some tracks) disappear

This has happened to me on several occasions: I'm playing along, I hit pause, and when I hit play again, MMA will not play. Skip does nothing. Upon investigation, this is because my Now Playing list is suddenly empty. In fact, every playlist is empty, even though they were all fine the last time I s...

Re: Advanced Duplicate Find & Fix 3.8.2 (2014-01-27)

I've been having an issue lately that my Custom AutoActions won't save. I've configured them a dozen times, doesn't matter, next time I open Mediamonkey I'm back to the defaults. Plus, when I try to use one of the paste actions on a newly downloaded track, I often get "It's not allowed to Trans...
