Trying this out and I like the look of it, think you've done a great job. I do however have one issue, for which I have a workaround, but thought I'd mention it anyway.
I'm using the thumb version, but accidentally installed the non-thumb version first and saw the same behaviour when I initially opened it up, so it's in both.
I have a load of ogg files, and it seems that some of them are picked up by the music indexer and named, and sorted correctly by artist and album.
However many aren't (this may also occur for mp3s but I have many more oggs and haven't yet found an mp3 in the list) and instead are lumped into Unknown Artist and Unknown Album.
I'm think that this is a tag issue as I did do a load of re-tagging of files sometime in the past. However, this is the first player to not pick up the information in these files (eg Someplayer sorts and labels them correctly).
Also, when playing, in Entertainment view, the correct artist and album names are displayed.
I don't tend to use playlists much and tend to listen to albums as a whole, so my workaround is to use "Whole Directory" setting and select album folders from a file manager.
Using mediainfo I can't see any difference in the tags.
Any ideas?
