I love the "source reading" options. I would love to be able to have a bigger ramdisk for less disk thrashing, but I'll take whatever I can get!
- One issue is that anytime (since the introduction of this feature, 117 i think) if I set the buffer size to it's maximum, many songs do not play. I double click in the playlist and the player just skips over them. Sometimes multiple times, then it finally starts playing them. This goes away when I set the buffer to a smaller value (400k works fine). I've played around with the other sliders and they have no effect on skipping tracks that I've seen. I really want to set the buffer to maximum and the re-buffering pretty low so that my disk is not used all the time.
- Along with the buffering issue.... how many buffers does QMP have?!? It's got buffers for source reading, a buffer and prebuffer in the crossfading plugin... what do they all do?
- Another issue is that there is no font choice for currently selected track in the playlist. This means that the tracknames continually jump in size and boldness as I select them.
- Could something be done about the "always on top" option?
1. each "window" (ML, PL, main player) has a different way of showing on top status.
2. open replaygain settings, use another program to deselect always on top for that window, and all of QMP loses on top status, but still has always on top selected.
3. I use the mini mode with ML and PL open. Always on top works fine, but everytime I click the player, the ML and PL jump to the front. The reason I don't close them everytime is because I have to reopen each individually. Is there a way to open them both at the same time?
Thanks,
Kevin
