Screen resolution changes

Thanks for the screenshots @Melbourne

After almost a year since this request/bug report and many others to no avail there is no response or resolution to the problems/request. (windows version)

  1. Screen resolution changes not scaling properly
  2. The ability to properly read the meta-data of flac files, was reported since the beta testing of windows version
  3. My Collection: Powerful playlists management and meta data editing like MAC version
  4. The ability to hide the streaming media source like MAC version
  5. • Sequencer: create instant beats on top of music like MAC version
    • Looper: remix music with up to 48 loops per track like MAC version
    • Beat-matched sequencing of drums and samples like MAC version
    • Extensive content library with 1000+ loops and samples like MAC version
    • Mix videos, visuals, and photos like MAC version
  6. No music match for local files like MAC version
    Also, since the latest update my computer no longer does neural mix stem at 100% anymore only 60% and 80% now for neural mix stem. :astonished:

Hi @Melbourne, thanks for continuing to push the original topic plus the others in your list. I believe part of the issue here is, in the past, there have been several suggestions made in a single topic. This makes it challenging to gauge user demand for individual suggestions and to keep track of them independently. I believe the best path forward, is for us to ensure there is a single topic for each item in your list. Then users can upvote them individually and I can push each of them internally with our engineering and dev teams to make sure nothing slips through the cracks.

  1. When you say “doesn’t scale properly”, can you please clarify what you are asking for:
    a. Do you want the decks area to be higher resolution when scaled up (i.e. less pixelated)
    b. Or do you want the decks area to scale up differently without keeping its aspect ratio, so that the media library gets more vertical room as the window size increases?
    c. Currently the decks UI (above the media library) has a fixed aspect ratio and so it is scaled up with increased window sizes, making the media library shrink vertically. This is currently expected behavior on Mac and Windows, but we understand this may not be ideal for large screen sizes. The challenge for improving this is determining the best way for each djay View Mode configuration to scale up without keeping the aspect ratio, i.e. decide which parts can get stretched wider by keeping their height. When showing just horizontal waveforms it’s pretty easy as you could just make them wider, but, for example, when showing vinyl or jog wheels with vertical waveforms it’s less clear. Long story short, this isn’t a simple fix and the team is still investigating options for this.
  2. Can you please link the Community topic for “reading meta-data of flac files” so we can continue the discussion there? If one doesn’t exist, please create a new one and @Slak_Jaw tag me in your post.
  3. Can you please link Community topics for “powerful playlist” and “meta data editing” so we can continue the discussion there? If these don’t exist individually, please create new ones for each and @Slak_Jaw tag me in your post.
  4. Is there an existing Community suggestion for “Hide streaming media source”? If not, please create one per above.
  5. Please note that the Windows version of djay uses the same sequencer and Looper functionality and content library as the macOS version. If we’ve missed something specific, please create a new topic highlighting the specifics.
  6. Match in My Collection (which can include local files) has been added to the Windows version.

I hope that helps and makes sense. Rest assured that our teams are committed to making djay the best DJ software across all platforms and we consider every piece of feedback we receive from dedicated users like yourself. So, thanks again!

To answer your post

  1. (b) I was more thinking on the lines of not trying to make or keep it touch centric and make it more control base were the suggestion of scaling you mention in (c) is neither here nor there because it is more a representation of buttons on the controller that matter the most. You can’t DJ a set if you cannot see your library. That is a very important part of DJing.
  2. Flac files not being decoded properly in windows - Bug Reports - Algoriddim Community Forums
  3. Taken straight from the MAC OS feature page. Just asking for OS matching features.
  4. Taken straight from the MAC OS feature page. Just asking for OS matching features.
  5. Taken straight from the MAC OS feature page. Just asking for OS matching features.
  6. Yes, that’s what was listed but it not working for me or maybe I have a misunderstanding of how this feature works. But I will try again to see if I am doing something wrong.
    I have been waiting since 2017 for OS matching features. What’s another seven years, not trying to be an A…hole but this is simple just my reality with Djay Pro.

Hi @Melbourne, thanks for the detailed reply.

  1. Noted and passed onto the dev team.
  2. I reopened this topic and have pushed it again internally.
  3. If this issue is important to you, please create a topic for it so we can track it, users can upvote it and I can communicate everything to the dev team.
  4. Same as 3 above.
  5. Same as 3 above.
  6. If this isn’t working for you, please create a new topic for it so we can investigate it further.

Also, please note that I will be away on holidays from Oct 4-14. Thanks!
