Enhancement Requests / Re: Save / Select Clips.
July 15, 2025, 10:34:33 PM
reading through other feature requests... some can be brought into this concept.
-the clips, in addition to start/duration info could contain tags  (someone had mentioned tags)
-someone could quickly create a situation for a visiting team walkout, and add all clips that have both the "walkout" and "classic" tag

alternatively to the "clips" just being meta data, i guess i could just use a real audio editor to save mp3, which already have all the ability to put meta data in, including tags.  so maybe the GUI that you have to select part of a song has a "save clip" button and creates a small mp3 in a different folder.

Enhancement Requests / Save / Select Clips.
July 15, 2025, 10:12:37 PM
1) creation of clips
It would be nice to be able to save the clip selection as a "thing"

for example, someone saves Thunderstruck to their device.
then they create 3 clips... times are just examples
Thunderstruck Intro Short: 0:10.0-0:20.0
Thunderstruck Intro Long: 0:04.0-0:20.0
Thunderstruck Thunder: 0:30.-0:40.0

now when selecting a song, instead a clip can be selected.  i could pick a clip for players on multiple teams, or even visiting team... save time by reusing clips.

2) clip selection
allow a player to have more than 1 clip assigned to them.  a player might want to change their song for a few games then go back, or maybe allow a kid to have a few and have them cycled

Enhancement Requests / Game Mode
July 15, 2025, 09:58:01 PM
A mode that can be used during the game, more specialized for that purpose.
- larger rows / names
- "Select Song" becomes "Select Clip" (more on this in a different post)
- when a players walkout song completes the next one is highlighted
- a button that is "Up Now" so it plays the current players song (and highlights the next one).  you can keep pressing just one button go through the lineup
- probably still need to be able to enable player substitutions

but the idea is that the UI changes, as I can spend a lot of time setting it up, and then hand off to a parent to run.  its easier to run, and less worry they mess something up.
