Stop Button

<< < (3/3)

Charlemagne 8:
It seems that only the "Noire" skin lacks an actual Stop button. The others have one but also offer the "double click to stop" option on the play button.
I like the "Noire" skin. Less cluttered is better.

Every piece of audio and video equipment I have ever owned always had a Stop button and I really don't see a reason to get rid of it. Pause is not the same as Stop.

There many reasons for having direct access to both the Stop and Pause buttons, some of which have already been mentioned.

I'm going to be getting a Touchscreen very soon and it would seem that not having the Stop button on the interface would make using a touchscreen more cumbersome.

And lastly, how does removing this one button from the interface really help make it less cluttered?

jgreen:
Switching back and forth between Noire and skins that have a stop button, I've decided that I like the Noire system better--no stop button.  I think a play/pause/stop convention as in Noire is much simpler once you get used to it.  If you want to make it plainer, make the main button even bigger.

Mr ChriZ:
One problem with the new system.
It's now even more difficult to get a freeze frame than it was already!

Everytime you double click the play button it stops, instead of moving
slightly onward.

I guess it would be useful if you could tell MC to go to a point on a track numerically?
Someone else mentioned that somewhere the other day.
