Crosspost; I felt this should be in here too :)


Ok, here is what I'll call V1.0 Beta.  Have at it, tell me what you like/dislike, or want added or removed.
Thanks, I see you really got into it! :)

Here are my thoughts:
- make the "Load Servers" window resiszable or at least bigger, it now shows only 4.5 streams at once.

- in the "Load Servers" window, hide the "#EXTINF" lines

- add the "enable" checkmarks again?

- running the .exe again while cause to load a second copy :-/

- if you could, make it check if it's exe is already running when it's started: if it's...
  ...already running but minimized to the tray make it open the window
  ...already running but runs in window mode minimize it to the tray
  ...isn't running already start it up in window mode

- add something like skrommel's *great* "watch for song titles or artist names" idea (see above)

- make the main window more customizable:
  - let the user change the size
  - let the user change what kind of info that window should show
  - I would prefer a much smaller window, where I could have just the info most important to me visible,
    I like skrommel's approach here
  - allow the user to give the streams 'nick names', so that one knows *which* stream is "NA" (see #3 in screenshot)
  - allowing 'nick names' would also help to prevend problems with extremely long stream names (see #4 in screenshot)

ShoutCast Concierge v1.0 Bug Reports


Hmm, I wonder if we should use a new thread just for dev talk about ShoutcastConcierge?

Would it be possible for you to email me the .m3u file that is showing the #EXTINF lines in the Load Server window?  You can just put in fake http streams if you'd like.




Thanks

Since the playlist is just a text file I'll just send you a forum message with those - please don't spread it ;)

Another idea: add an "mark stream if stream title contains..." option and let the user define a few words for which ShoutCast Concierge checks the titles.

Example: live --> that would highlight/mark those streams playing live shows right now.

This is kinda related to that suggestion to change the playing stream in Winamp when it contains a certain word, but instead this should only somehow mark the stream where the title contains one of the specified word.
