iSub iPhone Client - Version 2.0 Released

[wunderbred]

There may be a new settings menu that has changed this, or perhaps this is a bug?

In the previous versions of iSub, it seemed that when a new subfolder was created (I have an x:/My Music/Artists/Album setup), I would see the new folders in iSub whenever I selected the Artist. This has changed now, and I actually have to process all my albums to see any new subfolders listed. Just refreshing the artists tab doesn't see any new albums/subfolders added.

Is this intentional or am I missing something?

It looks like you may have partially answered my question here: http://forum.subsonic.org/forum/viewtop ... 3264#13264

But I don't know if this is something that has changed since earlier versions of iSub, as I never noticed this issue in the past...

Since the song caching I have the impression that songs that are cached and played no longer are scrobbled to last.fm from the subsonic server.
Is there a way to re-enable the old behaviour??

I also requested this... I believe he is planning on doing that.

And yes, there will be a toggle to turn off the automatic caching.

Ok i got a request for a modification to the bookmark function..

I often listen to audiobooks when i am driving but i noticed if i play an audiobook from cache then bookmark it and later go to resume playing it it works fine until the end of the file... then it does not goto the next file. my sugestion would be to make the bookmark function also remember the playlist/queue so that after the end of the file it would goto the next track.

Thanks

I would like to be able to select an artist and to update all of their albums & songs without having to refresh ALL albums & songs

I would like to be able to update all albums & songs without having to play a song!

I would lke to have "now Playing" on the bottom menu so I can get to it from any screen (to see, to mute, etc)

There are some songs in the cache that seem to be incorrectly loaded in the cache.

If I attempt to play them from the cache, I get the message:

"Attempt to play streaming audio failed". and then iSub dies.

This is consistent. Sometimes the message box comes up multiple times before iSub crashes. In every case, iSub does not actually wait for me to press OK on the message box.

My suggestions is that if a file in the cache is "corrupted" or whatever, that you delete it - and give the user the opportunity to reload it from the server (if connected to the inet).

In any case this is an actual bug, as opposed to a feature request.

I am finding that when I am home (i.e. have wifi to my subsonic server) and try to pre-cache huge amounts of stuff - that the behavior is very erratic. Some songs get loaded. Some do not. Some are partially loaded. And, I can't really tell what's what.. (I.e. what loaded and what not, without looking at individual albums in the cache).

I don't see any obvious place to see how much flash space iSub is already claiming, and how much is "left". I would love to see this in "Settings" right near the "Minimum free space" slider. I'd love to see two things: 1) How much space is available. 2) How much space iSub is already using.

[squipple]

The only thing left I really would like to see in isub is in the more tab a "Newest" and a "Recent" area to show the newest things on the server and the most recently played albums on the server.

Also, do you have a changelog for isub somewhere showing what's planned for the next release, etc similar to what sindre has for subsonic?

I've been using bookmarks pretty heavily for podcasts and I've come across another issue. I'm not sure if it's been reported yet or not so I'll just mention it.

Once in a while when I start up iSub and I go to the bookmarks list the are all there but show (null) - 0:00 in the title and of course the bookmark doesn't work.

Sometimes it's all of them. Sometimes it's a select few. Killing iSub and restarting doesn't help but once I had iSub crash on me (try and delete a bookmark that is in this null state) then I restarted and the bookmarks were working again. Later, on when starting up iSub again the bookmark is null. I tend to overwrite the same bookmark a lot (like "p" for my current podcast). I'm not sure if that has something to do with it. So it doesn't seem like the persisted bookmark is corrupted or anything. Because I've seen a bookmark go null and back to normal again and then back to null. It seems to be more when iSub is started and when bookmarks list is loaded.

- Also, resume after making or taking a phone call seems unreliable.

I requested the same thing a page back and more general current playlist context persistence. Good to know I'm not the only one looking for this enchancement.

thanks for the wonderful app Einsteix2! I can't get jukebox mode working, though, is this something you're working on or considering? I understand it's now part of the REST API (since 4.0?) - http://your-server/rest/jukeboxControl.view . That would enable me to use my iPod Touch as a Subsonic remote control and that would be the final use case I'm missing!

Any update on when 2.2.3 should be available? I haven't been able to use the "Update All" button on my phone for 3 weeks because I am holding back from installing 2.2.2 since August.

FYI - spotted key update in App store today
