Changes in TritonPlayer

We will have a look at the list of changes in Triton Player 1.1

Localization

Did you know that Triton Player supports German Language in addition to the default English? More localization strings have been added in this version. There was a bug that initially the default language was coming as null. It has been fixed.

Changes based on User Review

Some changes have been implemented from user responses. This includes the playing from the beginning if you switch to shuffle mode being changed to start playing only if any song is already playing. "Hide to tray" when minimized can now be controlled using the settings screen. This is an issue reported in Win 7 versions. By default "Hide to tray" is disabled.

UI Enhancements

On the UI end, we start displaying the File Loaded progress bar as soon as the user has selected a folder rather than once the first file was completed loading. This change should make the users seem the application is more responsive. Some minor UI tweaks also.

Performance Related

Some changes are in the internal workings for performance and following standards etc. This includes using an Item Renderer to display the playlist instead of manually creating.

Attempted Features

Reordering the playlist was partially implemented, but the track numbers were not updating properly. So that feature is still not implemented.

Whats in store

A feature that should be available on most normal players would be a "seek bar". If you noticed that the seek bar on TritonPlayer is not working , well we are working on it. Also lookout for themes in the future releases.
