Snakeoil 1.2.2 Beta 1

  • When Firefox set to "not maximised", sidebar is set to icons only. On maximising, sidebar set to icons + description.  However, when selecting networking, disk/NAS etc, the sidebar is reduced to icons only, when it should have icon + description.  A refresh clears it up, but this refresh should not be required.
There's some issues with that side menu bar, that's why it was removed initially. I'll see if I can find a way to fix that from code on my side (without hacking that menu side bar code, which is from a 3rd party).

    Maybe it is me, but I am having issues with Music Player/ Expert.  The enabling/disabling of a music player is confusing.
    • When I click on a disabled player, I have to  click box on right to enable it.  Why not just click to enable, click to disable?
  • When you click on the player, can you click the icon before the name to turn it on? And off? Does that make it better? Ignore the checkbox for now, I'm adding two ways to enable/disable player to see what is the better option.

    As for the click to toggle enable/disable. I tried that initially, it's actually worse. Because when you want to change a setting, you clicked on the player, it'll be disabled again. And you have to click it twice to enable.

    So the idea is:
    1. Click on the player.
    2. If it's enabled, you can start to configure the player options straight away. Or click the power button to stop it.
    3. If it's disabled, you can click the "STOP" button and it will be turned on, and you can configure it straight away
    4. You can also click the stop/power button immediately to turn things on/off.

    This works really well across computer, tablet and phone.

  • And some players require additional information which further adds to my confusion?  
  • Initially, I thought I had to restart players to enable new players.  Perhaps use "restart players" to have a consistent way to enable players ????
  • Will post further comments after more testing...
    You are right. You have to click the "Restarting Player(s)" to save everything. Clicking start/stop for each player tile doesn't start/stop the players immediately. You have to click the button to save it.. I'll rename "Restart PLayers" button to "Save" to make it clearer.

    In previous versions I could select 'Remount partitions' and the share would be added..... now I have to reboot... Sad

    Can this be rolled back ? Smile
    You can roll back to a previous firmware without issue. But clicking the "Save" button should remount them automatically (as long as the NAS has finished loading). What kind of network share are you using? CIFS or NFS?
