Another suggestion : about the ratings

Well, it's not something important, it doesn't affect me, but if you're looking for something new to improve Silverjuke, I maybe have an idea : improve the rating system.

For the moment, if you're not in "list view", it's nearly unusable, since it's kinda difficult to right click on the track to rate it. It's just like when I was using WinAmp : I never rated any (or nearly any) songs, since I never used the library view... But when I discovered iTunes, I started to rate all the songs I was listening to, since it's really easy, and very useful for example when you want to play only your "best" songs.

Well, I think something can be done about it on Silverjuke. And without adding another thing to the album view (since it's just great like it is :-)).

Note that, most of the time, you want to rate a song when you're listening to it (you're just like "waw I didn't think it was so cool :-D" or "pfff don't like it at all :-?"), or just after you listened to it. So, it's not necessary to show the ratings of all songs (that's the purpose of the list view), but only the one you're listening to. It could just be a button or 5 stars next to the prev/play/next buttons, or next to the song title inside the playlist display.

Last thing : an "import ratings from iTunes" function would be cool. Shouldn't be so difficult : just read the "iTunes Music Library.xml" file and import ratings for each song (identified by its filename) in the Silverjuke database :-).

--

It doesn't have anything to do with that, but I wanted to say that I'm just more impressed by Silverjuke each time I launch it ! I don't know why, but the "random selection" is just the best I've ever seen. It just chooses exactly the songs I want to listen to ;-)

iNyar - You have my support!!!
I've tried to categorize my music into different categories again and again.
but the main important thing is: GOOD / OK / BAD, but maybe your friends like this ;-)
So please please please make some skin-targets so i can easily use 5 buttons to rate my songs! (espacially with my touchscreen)
Thanks and have nice holidays...
