Re: [slim] Duet Controller Shuffle Behavior
Had a party this weekend and while the guests were impressed by their ability to dial-up all my music on the controller, they were less than impressed by the presence of this shuffle bug (had to explain to 5+ people that it was unexpected behavior and it should work like they expected). Luckily they quickly moved to adding specific songs to the playlist which limited this issue. Other comments were basically that the controller was unresponsive at times (sometimes going to Connecting... and other times just spinning arrow, etc.) and a little sluggish in general. My wireless is solid in general fo other devices, so I'm not sure what the issue is. Also, the feel of the dial is tough to get the hang of - it seems to jump from non-responsive to over responsive. It's not easy to use it quickly based on feel - you have to be very deliberate to not under or overshoot your target. I understand and agree with these assessments. I'm hoping there's focus on cleaning up the code on the controller to be faster and have fewer bugs. It's the front line in the reference sale in the field and it's not where it needs to be yet, IMO. -- thomsens thomsens's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=1352 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=54476 ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss
Re: [slim] Duet Controller Shuffle Behavior
Best I can tell, 6 months have past and this bug hasn't been addressed. I suppose I could track down some nightly, but my current 7.3.2 SC is too fragile as it is. Very frustrating... -- thomsens thomsens's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=1352 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=54476 ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss
Re: [slim] Duet Controller Shuffle Behavior
You guys are killing me...please don't let this fix slip again. I hate using the controller with this bug. -- thomsens thomsens's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=1352 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=54476 ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss
Re: [slim] Duet Controller Shuffle Behavior
Great! Aside from my own frustration, I have had a few occassions to try to explain to someone else why it does that when I've shown them the controller. Needless to say it sticks out to new folks who check the product out in my home. -- thomsens thomsens's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=1352 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=54476 ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss
[slim] Duet Controller Shuffle Behavior
I wish the behavior of the Conroller was different when starting off an adhoc playlist. I think whenever you are on a highlighted song and hit play, that song should immediately play. In the shuffle mode now, I'll go down to the song level within an album and hit play on a song only to have a different song on that album play. I think the behavior should be to play that song first and shuffle the rest. There's already the ability to shuffle an album at the album level or if you select play all so I don't understand why the same thing happens when you scroll to a song. Thoughts? -- thomsens thomsens's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=1352 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=54476 ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss
Re: [slim] Duet Controller Shuffle Behavior
Agreed, that behavior is wrong (and different than the classic Squeezebox player interface).
