No fix possible or invalid:
−
* Audio, Visualisation, Goom -> CRASH . Not Qt4 bug
 
−
* Video, Zoom, doesn't have a (default) value selected -- Same in WX, there is no "default" value for this, it would become invalid as soon as you resize [[User:Zorglub]]
 
−
* Audio volume slider "doesn't go where you click" (while the video slider does. Is this still an issue? sliders in preferences don't do this either). I considered this as better for "normal" sliders. It can be changed easily. What do you think ? [[User:Zorglub]] Should be left as is IMO [[User:Dionoea|Dionoea]]
 
  
 
Fixed:
 
Fixed:
−
* Preferences doesn't have an apply or save all yet either
 
−
* Tools, Preferences, "All", select the Advanced tickbox -> CRASH. Seems to happen when no item is selected yet at the options.
 
−
* "No suitable decoder.." too small popup boxes without any cancel buttons or additional information  -- Interaction support is far from complete [[User:Zorglub]]
 
−
* Mouse click/location in Messages window is treated as new insertion/start point for following debug messages
 
−
* Quick Open, "All files" -> doesn't show -any- files
 
−
* Location and name/duration first character slightly overlaps border/rectangle. Shift one to the right?
 
−
* Tools, Preferences, doesn't show "All" but "Basic" by default
 
−
* Video, Zoom, CRASH
 
−
* Tools, Preferences, CRASH (incl. the Advanced option in "All" mode)
 
−
* Selection in menu doesn't work:
 
−
** Video, Fullscreen is always "selected" but in fact shows normal video. Functional but select icon doesn't follow status properly
 
−
** Video, Always on top is always "selected" but not functional
 
−
** Video, Deinterlace modes are not "selected" but are functional
 
−
** Video, Aspect ratio modes are not "selected" but are functional
 
−
** Audio Track, Device, Channels and Visualizations: no default "selected"/shown
 
−
* No VLC icon in titlebar and in taskbar (also not when Preferences, Stream info window etc. open seperately)
 
−
* Rightclick in playlist, CRASH
 
−
* Tools, "Preferences" or "Messages" window opened will not be destroyed when main player is closed.
 
−
* Tools, Information doesn't have a close button.
 
−
* Tools, Extended (GUI) -> CRASH. This will happen when no clip has been played yet (so at least on startup).

Prefs Icons

Icons needed:

  • "Video"
  • "Audio"
  • "Input and Codecs"
  • "Playlist"
  • "Interface"
  • "Subtitles"

Playlist

  • Finish Popup handling **

Open dialog

  • Generic stuff **
  • Acquisition tabs

Preferences

Streaming

Profiles

Issues

Some current issues being worked on or looked into.. latest reference svn-16791.

Bugs:

  • Add a file to the playlist, drag and drop to the left panel on Playlist or Media library icon, double click on that icon (that will expand it and show the element just added), double click on the element -> CRASH
  • Tools, Interface, Console (problem only applies to this option), File open file, play, close with X -> continues playing (while the vout is destroyed, audio goes on) until the Console window is "selected", then the clip really "quits".
  • Height consistency on Tools, Preferences, "Basic". The Video, Audio etc. option text consists of about 4 lines height. On "All", the Advanced is only one line, while the expanded options like CPU features, Filters etc. are 2 lines again.
  • File location of playing item in Windows shows forward instead of backslash (also in playlist items) -- Hum ? Looks like a core issue ? User:Zorglub -- CRASH issue when opening a 2nd file. main debug: adding item <garbage>. Does not happen in WX. When media files are in the default folder (Application Data?) then no problems occur since no path needs to be selected. Also qt4 in gdb refuses to open a file User:Trax


Unreproducible (in linux):

  • Preferences, All, Audio, Filters, select Headphone then Equalizer, the show settings (to select Basic or All) and the whole left section suddenly becomes very wide/stretched. Same goes for selecting Filters, parametric equalizer right away.
  • Interface, Main Interface, Skins, 2 entries of enable transparency effects


Missing stuff:

  • File, Open .. think there should be a "All media types, or all supported types" listed which is default. (Also some File type listings have a space in front of them).

No fix possible or invalid:

Mockups

Since I (pherthyl) am (going to be) helping with the Qt interface, I thought I'd keep a page of mockups for new UI ideas. While there are some things we need to copy from the wxWidgets interface, there are also lots of non-optimal bits of UI in the old interface that I think we should improve. Since the Qt interface isn't out yet, now is the time to make changes like this.
