General tweaks and fixes

Hi I had a couple requests for tweaks and fixes for the RS250a (and all others)

  1. The home screen icons should have an option where they will “dock” and not continuously go through the list as you are scrolling. What I mean is the icon that is first should be docked first, so that if you swipe to go back left it stops at the first icon, it doesn’t scroll back through the last icons. And the same at the end, once you get to the end of the list, the list stops, and doesn’t start back at the beginning. This would make it easier and quicker finding the icon you want to select as it can be anywhere if it’s continuous scroll. This seems like a easy toggle option to add in the settings area

  2. Settings should be a quick button on the top right corner of the screen and not just on the home menu.

  3. The in/out should also be good button on the top right corner of the screen so it can be accessed quickly.

  4. When selecting a music file to play, the Current Playback Screen should pop up automatically. This would be an expected function for the user. Also with rosetube videos, the video should start showing, you shouldn’t have to select the top button to open up the Current Playback Screen.

  5. In the video section, how do you assign videos to certain genres? Genres is a nice filter option but none of my videos are listed under any of the genres and I don’t see an option for assigning a genre to the files

  6. Rosetube needs to be revamped. The home screen lists 5 options. Right now they are “Chamber Music” “Total Environenment Music” “Gogo Penguin” “Billboard Hot 30” “K Pop Hot 30”. These aren’t great selections. I want to search for jazz concerts, country shows, rock shows, rock music videos. Where’s a filter/list that has these curated? Are these 5 the only lists that have curated videos?

Again I love this unit and would like to see continuous improvements!

I have forwarded your request to the software team.
They will fix any areas that can be improved. However, if we do not feel the need for modification, it will not be modified.

In/Out settings are marked INTERNAL at the top of the screen.

Rosehan,

i’m thrilled with the latest software update.

I’ve said before that the biggest software area to address next is Rosetube (which I really like) and its fixed home screen. Not only is the home screen fixed but it is fixed on items which I can’t imagine appeal to the vast majority of Rose purchasers. As Augustaprime correctly points out “The home screen lists 5 options. Right now they are “Chamber Music” “Total Environenment Music” “Gogo Penguin” “Billboard Hot 30” “K Pop Hot 30”. These aren’t great selections. I want to search for jazz concerts, country shows, rock shows, rock music videos. Where’s a filter/list that has these curated? Are these 5 the only lists that have curated videos?”

Like Augustaprime, I have my own list of favorites which are neither what is currently fixed nor the same as Augustprime’s.
Why do people pay so much for a high end streamer? After sound quality which is of course first, it’s customizability.
Please fix this in the next round of improvements. Each user should be able to create a home screen with his own favorite selections.

Thank you for your diligence.
