While I find QMP to be an incredibly well developed application, far above and beyond anything else out there, I must admit there are some things missing.

Playlist total time... where is it? Why isn't the total time of all the tracks in the playlist at least listed in the playlist window itself? The ML lists times and such, however the PL window doesn't. This should be added... unless, of course, I'm the only one that wants it!

EQ adjustments. I can't ever adjust them precisely. It generally only lets me adjust the sliders in 1.5-2% increments, which isn't precise enough for my current stereo (it's a quite old and very picky about the input signal -- as am I).

Ripping/Encoding. I use high-quality VBR to rip music, however, every time I restart QMP (using B101) I have to set the quality slider back to 100 (it seems to default to 10 for some strange reason). No matter how many times I've set it and hit "Save and Close" it never remembers. While this may be more of a bug than anything (or not) it's still a request so I figured I'd list it. Oh and this is using LAME v3.96 for the encoding DLL.


Besides these few minor issues, QMP is great. I love the green! Keep up the good work!

Have you tried Pushing stop???? When you push stop... The spot that displays time passed or time left in the current track will be replaced with the total time of the playlist....

BTW... I prefer Flat... I don't like EQ's.... And I've never used lame, I use the Encoder from from QCD 4.51... Only because It runns twice as fast on My computer.... So I can't help you there.....

Also hovering the track time display shows the total time of the playlist.

I believe that the EQ adjustments is being worked on, or was mentioned in another thread. I'll see if I can find the link. They wanted the EQ adjustable to 0.1% precision.

The ripping/encoding bug that you mention I believe has been fixed and should be working as of B102.
