This is something for the future but I still like to initiate the
discussions to get some feedback and ideas.
How are other people browsing music in SBS from a computer ?
Are you usually focused on only the SBS interface so it covers most of
the screen or does the SBS only take up a small part of the screen ?
I'm asking because for me there are two different scenarios:
1. I just want to access the controls to maybe skip to next track
or
2. I want to really browse and discover music
In scenario 1 I'd like a very small interface just offering the basics,
since I'm on Linux or OSX the Moose tray icon isn't an option and the
SBS web interface takes up way to large part of the screen in this
scenario.
In scenario 2 I'd love to really use the large screen but the SBS web
interface really have a lot of blank areas that aren't used for
anything, especially if you run it in full screen mode. Would be nice
if some of these blank areas could be used for either information or
images.
I've also recently tried the WinAmp interface a few months ago it it's
more or less completely opposite, its interface is very crowded with
almost no blank areas. In my opinion they have taken it one step too
far but I still feel that they take advantage of the screen a lot
better than SBS web interface.
So what are peoples thoughts ?
Would you like less blank areas on the SBS screen ?
Any ideas how we could make better use of the screen on a modern
computer which I'm guessing most people use when controlling SBS web
interface.
I realize Logitech might not want to spent the resources to do radical
improvements like this but I'm also asking from a third party
development perspective since it's possible to make third party
skins/plugins for SBS. So some third party developer might be
interested in doing something.
