Issue #343 closed

Hi

First of all I want to thank you for your awesome app and wish you the best. But as a user who use your app for long time I think the time for changing the app interface and add few functionality to app will make it better.

I just suggest one important which I think everybody agree on that (I guess so) and it is to have main interface which let user to add whole folder or multiple file at same time and edit them easily so user don't go and for example add whole season 1 of friends one by one and send them to queue or edit them and add their meta one by one.

Best regards

    Damiano is a single person, who probably develops this free (donation funded) app in his free time (I'm guessing).

    I don't want to be harsh, but a new interface requires a lot of work and thinking and just saying that somebody wants this and that feature, especially a big feature, without providing any help is not helpful.

    Armin, please, sit down and design the new interfaces in all their aspects, but consider they need to be coded, not drawn - you'll have to use standard components.

    Here is a quick (and very incomplete) list of views I can see at first glance:

    • adding files to the app - via the menu and via drag-n-drop
    • having a selected item (file) and not having one
    • selecting different tracks and metadata on each selected item (file)
    • rearranging tracks
    • flagging tracks as enabled/disabled
    • renaming tracks
    • selecting track language
    • editing track's settings and media characteristics
    • adding additional tracks
    • searching for metadata online - selecting movie/tv show result; selecting poster
    • everything else...

    David - I believe you could also help - how do you see that unified window? Could you build a prototype or design one?

    Ivaylo Nobody force developer to do something. It's just an idea that I think and ask it if the developer can do it or not, and all of it depends on developer which didn't even come and say anything. and if he comes and ask for help I will definitely SIT DOWN and design it for him as you said (SIT DOWN). and Im david said what i mean in simple one line sentences. and ivaylo there are tons of sample on the net, and again if developer wants i think there are lots of UX/UI designer would. And yes he is one person doing this great app which all of us love it. and we all wants to improve it, nothing personal.

    Krisstoffer didn't even understand what we said in first place as he like to open 24 windows when he have 24 episodes.

    SO BY NEEDED I MEAN IF POSSIBLE TO MAKE UNIFIED WINDOW SO NO ONE WITH HUGE TV SERIES LIKE ME GO THROUGH THAT.

    I didn't say these words in harsh so don't be mad.

    @Krisstoffer Im pretty well aware of how to use the app and i have lots of my tv series done by subler. but Im still pretty sure you don't get it buddy

    Anyway I ask developer about this proposal no need to come here and tell me if i know how to use the app or not. if i didn't know how to use the app and didn't like it i never come here to ask a question

    when developer not coming and others think you don't have rights to answer simple question this closed

    ivaylo you messaged was not harsh bro, instead this "Buuddy" don't like to hear others proposal and think they are the only one who knows how things works in this world :) and still like tagged. Ok have fun with your tagged, im still using this great app and almost all of my series done by this app but like to see refresh design if possible. THE END
