Ok now that playlists are enabled on Dopamine here is a little hint for people who use iTunes to export their playlists. What it does is make your iTunes playlists to m3u! It has worked for me with over 30 playlists with 100's of tracks per playlist. The only thing I am not a fan of is that it requires adobe air for the graphical interface.

I have nothing to do with the site other than find the web site and using it.

Ordering songs within a playlist--to be able to control the order in which the songs are played.

 

Edit: By the way, when I select a song in a playlist and hit play, it doesn't actually play the selected song. It's a bit frustrating.

 

Ok understood. I've added song-reordering in playlists to my tasklist and logged a bug for the pressing-play-does-not-play-the-selected-track issue :) I'll into them as soon as I can.

Thanks! The itunes playlist database seems pretty simple. I might consider adding importing from itunes to Dopamine.

If only you could add support for adding/removing music to iPhones. I'd be in heaven. Ever think about supporting Androids too?

 

Sorry, if I'll ever support a Phone, it'll be Windows Phone.

Are there still plans for the mini player to be a small bar across the screen? I would still love this feature... saw a mockup you did at the start of this project.  I want it! =)  Besides that everything else is awesome! Wonderful job!

 

Probably, I can see Raphael making this as user-friendly and loaded with tricks. :)

Yes absolutely! :) No ETA yet though. I'll try to push it a little :)

    • I think the car analogy is more this: Left hand drive, basic commands on the left side of the infotainment screen. Right hand drive, basic commands on the right side of the infotainment screen. Granted, you're not swapping between the two often so it's doesn't really work. But it's to do with the proximity of you (your mouse, or the driver) to the controls.
    • I mean, the old one was broken and so stupidly complex for many users, so I don't see that as a feasible option. A context menu needs to be simple to use, and for me the Windows 11 style actually worked really well for me, and many others. I used to have to scroll the damn context menu just to get to "file properties" in Windows 10. That was not a good experience, and I'm sure you'd agree. What they're trying to do is make it the best of both worlds, as clearly you'd prefer the Win10 style. I'm curious how they're going to do this.
    • The "Show more options" has its place, as does the simpler context menu, but it should perhaps be a separate fly-out rather than relaunching the entire, old context menu. The old context menu was getting absurd in Windows 10. Often I'd have to make the context menu scroll just to get to "File properties" on my old laptop. Even without much installed, the amount of items was just too much. It's a context menu, not a "do all" menu. Making it configurable is fraught with challenges too, so I'm interested to see how Microsoft tackles this one.
    • I don't hate the new menus, I am not a fan of the lack of features and how they went live when they clearly are not complete. The menu itself presents much better than the previous - but what's lacking (IMO) is: 1) Any kind of automated manipulation such as: "this goes on the new menu because you use this feature more often on this filetype" "this is rarely used and will fall back to the old menu" 2) Any kind of user manipulation such as: "a UI to add/remove/order items to the new menu"
