Thanks for the reply.
Slide-in menu: yeah, one vote from me
Volume & Progress slider: I also appreciate a change there. As I pointed out before, it happens to me sometimes that I change the volume instead of progress (yes, very funny, if I want to jump to the end of the track...
), because in one view the volume is at the bottom, and in the other view the progress slider is there. The flexibility to handle this, my tiny brain cannot provide...
One and two-finger swipe: I think a good solution
Playlists a song is part of:
Mmh, an entirely new custom field I created within JRiver is shown in JRemote tag view, but the playlists, which are shown in JRiver are not shown in JRemote. So, this would mean that JRiver does provide the track information pretty randomly. I hope they will change this.
However, if I understand you right, then the JRiver API will soon enable adding tracks to playlists. This would be really, really great. But if adding is possible, then removing will too. And for this, you will need to provide a list of playlists, where the song is part of, anyway. So, maybe it is better to wait until the new API is out and if this is implemented into JRemote, my request may be covered with this too.
By the way, I think the slide-in menu would also be a good place for handling adding and removing to/from playlists. But wait, why should I make a suggestion here? You have proved very profoundly, that you really know how to design an excellent UI.
Update ratings:
Is it possible to update only the rated song instead of the whole list? Just thinking in respect to performance and responsiveness. What I mean is, that you update the track info for this one song and then change the rating info in all the views only locally. Or is this what you planned to do anyway?
Maximum Volume:
May I suggest this again? An option to set the maximum volume, where the right end of the volume slider represents this maximum value. The idea came up, because my Denon AVR uses a non-linear volume control. A volume of 7 to 10 is already good enough under normal circumstances. Especially on the iPhone it is very difficult to set the volume. The easiest solution would be to limit the volume. This may also be useful for other purposes, where you want to make sure the music is not played too loud.
