Open Beta Version 3.1.0

DickyDutch

Thank you for the latest Beta . Is there a way of restoring a backup from the live St3 into the new beta - there appears to be a restriction. I think It would help testing a lot.

coopdawg

peter are you creating another thread to post bugs, etc., or do we do it on this thread?

DickyDutch

Hi Peter managed to figure out how to restore a backup afterwards so all sorted. I did notice though that before I restored a backup that in the Queue view that the volume slider was referring to the Song Volume not the Queue volume. As soon as I restored a backup (from the live st3) that the volume then referred correctly to the Queue volume. Also can you check if the default lyrics text size function is working correctly- doesn’t seem to work for me but I may be doing something wrong!

Bugs

Please post bugs in this thread. There should be no separate threads for anything beta related.

Importing backups

I forgot to mention that you need to do an in app purchase for the full version feature. This purchase is only virtual to test that functionality. No money is transfered!

DickyDutch Song volume is the default volume mode. You can change it within the player by tapping on the volume value or the volume title.

Default text size and scrolling speed is only used when adding new songs. Existing songs are not affected by this setting as it is an individual value stored for each song.

Can you please add a feature to resize the font of the displayed song Title. When we have a long file name, eg song title plus the backing style then the info is cut-off in the set/playlist.
At least enable some kind of word-wrap?
Hope my request is understandable?

DickyDutch

I’ve noticed that when in the Songs view and you tap on the ‘Filter None’ tab the pop up window does not always open. On many occasions the whole screen just jumps up slightly and the pop up window refuses to open. However it seems to work better once a User defined filter has been added and selected. For clarity do you think it might be a good idea to add the default filter ‘none’ to the pop up list as the first entry?

peter

Good findings so far.

coopdawg Do the songs show up when you refresh the songlist? And could you post a screenshot of the cut off text?

DickyDutch I guess, I could add "None" as an option, or disable the button when there are no keywords defined.

When trying to restore from a backup, all my PLAYLIST loaded with song files attached. However, there are no songs showing on the SONGS page.
Also, on the "Sond Details" page some of the text is cut off (top and bottom)

Just to make sure it wasn’t the backup, I restored the backup to my iPhone (not the beta version) an it worked fine.

peter

coopdawg I can not reproduce both of your issues. Can you send me more details?

DickyDutch

Just to let you know that I used the beta version at a 1 hours gig this afternoon and had no problems- all worked fine. By the way I like the new lyrics text!

peter

Oh, just one more remark: If you report any problems, please always write which iOS version you are using. Some issues might be related to the iOS version.

coopdawg

peter Okay, I found the problem with songs not showing up, the filter was set to a tag I had created but hadn’t assigned it to a song.

As for the cut off text:

coopdawg Thanks for the screenshot. Interesting, I don't see that issue on my device. I will see what I can do.

I guess I should also reset the filter when restoring a backup.

coopdawg

peter okay, In my iPad settings (not ST BETA) I had the font set to a medium size, when I made it as small as it would go the text on the SONG DETAILS page was no longer cut off. It’s definitely easier on the eyes using the larger font.

Beta is amazing Peter. Wow! Two features I really like are: (1) coloring song titles (2) the widget icon in upper right that contains many quick customization features

New beta build 4618

Seems like the beta is already stable. Only minor problems to fix so far. So this might already be the release candidate and I will now start working on the updated user manual for this release.

Changes

Fixed restore purchases spinning wheel not finishing when no purchases have been made
Fixed cut off text in song details dialog when enabling larger font size in iOS settings
Changed color buttons to make it easier to view the selected color
Filter button will only work if at least one keyword is defined
Updated Airturn framework

Perhaps add a feature to the next beta: to the “pop up window” at the upper right, could you add an “edit lyrics” option? I use that a lot.

peter

I thought about that, but decided against it as it could possibly stop the current playback. The lyrics editor has its own player and that would interfere with the main playback. So there should be no options that could disturb your performance in the player view.

I’m still getting a problem with the song filter function. It takes several attempts to open the pop up window. The screen just jumps slightly upwards when I tap on filter and doesn’t open the pop up. But after several attempts it then works. When I then close the pop the problem Return. I’m testing on an IPAD 6th Generation running iOS 13.3.

peter

Make sure you scroll all the way up, if the header is not fully visible, iOS seems to capture the touch and do some kind of scrolling. I have no idea how to disable that.
