IMHO it would be nice to keep the layout between portrait and landscape as close as possible. Having a title bar at the top that doesn't cut the titles of the song/album/artist is on of the nice things about landscape mode. Here is what I mean:

You don't need the title bar to take up the space at the top. Mine only take up half of the space allowing you to display large art image. That is the purpose of my idea...allowing to display large art image even in landscape mode. If it can not be done...then forget it.

First of all, great work on instinctiv, peter! I last used it a few months ago, but recently reinstalled after updating to pr1.3 (which fixed the stuttering audio everytime it switched between regular portrait & dashboard landscape modes, big turn-off that it was). The other great improvement ive noticed has been with the playlist creation. its quick and easy now. thanks a LOT for that!

I second billybobjones' idea for making the album art as large as possible in landscape mode. (i couldnt edit the screeshot above, but id suggest removing the blank half of the "home > albums > epicon" bar to make even more space). also do something with all that empty space in list view while scrolling!

next (not sure if anyone already asked this, i think they did...) , could we have an option to lock the player in either portrait or landscape mode? (like we can with the phone app...although it reverts to landscape when th kb is open or when viewing the dashboard, but thats fine now that the audio doesnt skip)

third, about scrolling large lists: could you implement a quick, alphabetical scroll on the right hand side as is done on the ipodtouch/iphone? its prehaps the only quick yet accurate touch-sensitive scroll i can think of, and id like to be able to locate songs for adding to a playlist with out thumbing on and on and on...and then back...

besides that just one minor visual issue: the image you are using as the gray gradient in th background of the now-playing screen seems a bit off... it shouldnt show those bars like it is (something to do with too few colours or dithering i think?). it does that in both portrait and landscape. replacing that with a smoother gradient image would complete the silky-smooth feel of the app :D

i wouldnt mind paying for an itunes-integrated version...or at least a windows version that can sync playlists from an itunes library file. once again, great work!

I tried identifying some musics that were playing on TV but it never identifies them, is it just me being bad lucked with the specific musics i tried not in your database or is it somthing else?

I realize this is an unfair question but you don't by any chance know any of the songs we failed to identify, do you?

Does the identify function work from file yet? Last I checked it was mic only (not around any music).

Nope, sorry, they all were music that played during a program that i wanted to know what they were and remembered Instinctiv had that function so i quickly fired it up and tried to identify the song.



edit: i tried just now switching to the music channel on TV and so far it has recognized 4 out of 4 i've tried; perhaps the music during the programs and on openings were modified way more than i assumed?

Also possible to enable the fm transmitter in Instinctiv . . . would like that! Makes it the perfect player for the car!
