Hi there, Thanks for keeping up with my lack of manual reading ;-) Anyway, I belive that you as a UI designer will have to make things so simple to use that people can do it intuitively, not through unrealistic requirements of manual reading (or FAQ's for that sake). This is the only thing I really remember from my Human-Machine-interaction course at the Tech. University, some years back (it was Win 98 at that time...).
Regarding your 5-step play thing, it does not really seem intuitive, but perhaps it works. Can you clarify (I am away from my SB currently): Will pressing "Add all" add the songs to the current playlist and then a) Switch to start playing the first song of the added stuff b) keep shuffling only among the stuff just added The above describes the standard "Play button" behaviour in other skins, when pressing the Play buttom next to an artist name. If I wish to add them to the currently playing playlist without disturbing the curent track I would press "add" instead of play. If I could choose two buttons, I'd choose as follows: a) "Add to current playlist w/o disturbing current playback" (the current button, I suspect) b) "Play whatever is selected" - that be, everything from that artist, everything from the current search (!!), song X from the current search, everything from this album etc. Replacing the current playlist with everything covered by what I press "play" for (standard SB interface behaviour + standard skin behaviour) And then I'd like the MusicIP Mix button on the "Currently Playing" track screen. I can live without it anywhere else. If I could choose three, I'd go for having a) Add b) Play c) Mix from CustomBrowse ;-) Would a simple solution be to make make it possible to set in the settings which buttons I wish to have available, and then make the default fit Pippins favorite way (that is, only the Add button)? Then I can add what I wish for, and see if my wife will accept the new remote, so I can throw the old one out :-) Regarding the "hidden functionality". Damn....gotta find it w/o manual reading ;-) I at least found the way to swap tracks in the "now playing-tracklist-window". That works until drag'n'drop becomes an option.
