RE: Works on a "new" platform: MacOS X 10.1

A quick look back at emails from me will note that I already mentioned this.
:)

On topics mentioned earlier, I agree right on the remote doesn't make sense
for playing. But I also think that when you press play on a song it should
only play that song, and if people want to play the whole album, they should
press play on the directory.

Numbers, like somebody else said, would make good playlist selectors, being
able to save playlists to each button would be good.

Repeat on/off should be TV/Video. It's easy to remember that, and makes it
easy when Sean changes to custom remotes. The display should of course say
that you're switching it on/off.

There also appears to be a bug at the moment with repeat. I like if off, but
when it is, the display doesn't update to display the song it's playing as
it goes through them, it just sticks on the first one. But if repeat is on,
it displays fine. I tried looking at the code to fix it, but have limited
time, and couldn't see it.

The Guide button would be good for MP3 information, length and stuff. An
updating display with the time (elapsed/remaining) would be nice, with FF
and RW skipping through the song in the relevant direction. That's the most
intuitive for somebody who is used to using a VCR and such.
