Fantastic work
« on: August 10, 2006, 11:23:48 pm »

I'm just playing with MC12 now and I must say I am really impressed. Something I have wanted to see for a long time, is easier ways to do some of the powerful things that MC is capable of. Here are a couple of examples that I'd like to say thanks for:

Putting media schedular inside the program and giving it a wizard.

The "Add folder"  with "watch" functionality. (Nice and easy to use).

Tagging interface (beautiful)

Cleaning up the tree.

And that's just the stuff I've found in the 10 minutes I've had time to play so far.

Great work.

Don't forget the clean, elegant, nice new skin included with MC 12.  I think it really captures the capability of the computer by adding really nice fade features which Vista promises to deliver--I really like the top right button fades.  Transparent menus are great.  Don't forget the extremely fast interface.  iTunes used to be my favorite but it gets really slow really fast.  Thanks for the incredible speed bumps!

I find new features all the time...some were already there, but wow!  MC has a lot of features.

I also like that tags are remembered per media mode. Very nice.

And the little fade up "Tag" link on images. Sweet.

And the big cover art and song info on hover over albums. :o

And the new detachable display as a feature. Cooool. (especially with the play bar and little equaliser up there dancing away)

Just want to speil some more about the things I love in MC12:

Display action window is so funky that I have changed my play options from "jump on play: play full screen (if it has a display)" to "jump on play: none". It's so cool being able to see pics and video while still working in the library. And easily being able to detach when you want to see it bigger is cool too.

Auto import settings and watch folders being unique to each library is fantastic.

The skin and transparency and the way buttons highlight really does feel elegant.
