Moode 5.0

A couple of UI issues.

After clicking on the playing radio station logo in the player panel at the bottom of the screen, up pops the familiar playback screen.

At the very top left of the screen, there's a very small very dim grey search button, to all intents invisible, as is the bar (top middle, can't see it to tell what it is).

This needs a fix to make them visible.

Android 9 phone, tested in Chrome and Firefox.

Second one, there's a save playlist option in the menu on that screen. A load playlist option would be extremely useful as well.

I still can't get my head around the new UI. Needs a 'home' button on every screen to take you back to the 'now playing' plus playlist screen.

And another thing. Vanishing playlist. In the current track / playlist screen, you can see the playlist. Navigate away and back and lo, no playlist.

Haven't tried from my laptop.

This all seems worse than RC0. I didn't try RC1

I'm not seeing the UI anomalies that you mention. Try posting some screen shots so we can see what u are seeing on your device. Below are a couple screen shots from my iPhone. There are others in the Features section at moodeaudio.org.

I don't quite understand the Home button. Toggling between Playback full screen and Library with Playbar just takes one tap on the cover.

 

The "search" and bar on the top need to be the same brightness as the "m" on the right.  They are too dim to see properly on mobile devices, especially Android 9 phones like mine with over-agressive screen-dimming.

My request for a "take me to home from anywhere" button was prompted by a UI bug which shows up in Android Firefox (but not on desktop Firefox) where the arrow on the top left of a config page does nothing.

A screen shot of a vanished playlist would show nothing, however, this shows the problem:

1: Starting from playback screen, swipe down shows the current playlist (or it's just there on desktop browser).

2: Click the almost-invisible bar at the top (sorry to bang on about this, but it is soooo hard to see)

3: Switch to radio station view.

4: Click on a radio icon.

5: Playlist vanishes, showing only that station. Works perfectly on desktop, but not in Chrome or Firefox on Android 9.

How do you get it back? What should be the default here? Add to current playlist and play, I think, and not create new playlist.

Another bug / annoyance: Attempting to switch between radio channels on my playlist in desktop browser (Firefox) and the "MPD error - decoder failed to seek" message sometimes shows up.

Cheers,
