I want to start by saying the new Samsung Tizen player (early preview) is MUCH faster than it’s predecessor. However, there are a few things that seem to be missing. I am not sure if these still need to be added, or if they are being scrapped, but these are things I really hope will be carried over from the older app.
As far as movies and videos go, I love the new app version. However, I use Plex mainly for music, so these are a few things I hope will be added before the final release (regarding music):
-
I am not a fan of the way the "playing " screen looks. All you see is album art in the middle, the name of the song and the artist below the art. I love the current Tizen app that shows “Up Next”, as well as some additional artist photos. I also like how everything randomly moves in order to “Save” my screen. The early preview app does not do this, and just looks “boring” to me.
-
Music “List View” is missing (for both folder and non-folder view). I prefer List View over Grid View. Grid View looks way too chaotic and messy to me. I am hoping the new, finalized app will have the option to choose either Grid or List View.
-
The Music UI, in general, just looks “nicer” in the current version compared to early preview version. I can further explain more if needed.
