New Player Interface and Shuffle Play

[ewcrider 2]

I'm having some issues with the shuffle play/play all options with the new player interface.

1. I need a way to skip to the next file in the queue.  Preferably, it would be a single key on the keyboard.
2. In shuffle mode, the chapters are not loading.  The first file (season 1 episode 1, not the first shuffled file that is playing) is preliminarily loaded, with chapter marks, then shortly the interface switches over to the actually playing episode without chapter marks. In play all mode, chapters are loaded for the first file, but not subsequent files. 

 

On another note, would it be possible/desired to have a two-stage overlay?  First stage would be the current interface, then with a button (perhaps the up key) the overlay would grow and it could display some more information, like the item description. I'm not sure anyone else would want or use that, but it would look neat.

I will look into these when I get a chance but it will be a few weeks.

Most of this should be addressed in the current dev version of MBC (198).

Great, thanks.  Is there a keyboard shortcut associated with skipping as well as the control on the overlay?
