| Summary | 0002824: Make Auto-DJ more accessible | ||||
| Description | Auto-DJ is currently a fairly well-hidden feature that should get more exposure. One possible way of doing so would be to add it directly to the player as follows: -Move the Equalizer so that it appears when the user clicks the specrograph -Have an Auto-DJ button in place of the equalizer button -Add an Options button to the Now Playing window so that the user can quickly configure the NP options. i.e. List > Options -Change List > Options > ... to List > View > .... | ||||

I'm not sure if Auto-DJ should be that much exposed until it's more clever, i.e. uses some algorithms to make good mixes based on audio properties. Then, I'd prefer to not move Equalizer under spectrograph, this place should be used to switch between visualization modes or turning visualization off. |

Even in its current state it's pretty useful. And without this, the feature is almost completely hidden from most users. I don't really see a downside to this. More importantly, the comment about moving the equalizer button is no longer relevant, since the newest player design includes six buttons (though only 2 in mini mode). So really, all that's now needed is: 1. the ability to control the auto-dj from the player (may already be implemented--I'm not sure) 2. Add an Options button to the Now Playing window so that the user can quickly configure the NP options. i.e. List > Options 3. Change List > Options > ... to List > View > .... |

Assigning to Petr to review whether 1. is possible or implement it. Btw, I think that such a button could automatically have a context menu assigned so that user could right-click, select Options and edit Auto-DJ settings. Feel free to assign 2. & 3. to Ludek or do it yourself. |
