December 22, 2024
After extensive egg nog testing, we managed to fix the issue preventing the new DJ from showing up. It’s unclear if we saved Christmas or just our inboxes, but either way, you’re welcome.
Incredibly frustrating to actually use. It’s like whoever wrote this has never used a proper player before. Won’t restart playlists while driving if you forget to loop it when starting, forcing you to pull out your phone and reselect the list. Won’t play downloaded songs while casting even though music is also on the server. Won’t automatically disconnect from casting even when I’m no longer in range of the player. Can’t understand that not all songs have albums. Doesn’t keep track of podcast episodes played. Can’t figure out how to refresh the media library from the app. Now I can’t even figure out how to make it stop shuffling! If you press shuffle while it’s enabled, that doesn’t mean I want you to reshuffle, it means I want to turn it off, just like it does in any normal app! It’s like someone made a light switch that only turns lights on! I’m sure the option to disable it is buried 5 layers deep in a menu.
