While Recording Screen - User Interface Discussion - including remotes

<< < (2/10) > >>

Llorean:
It's been pointed out that while it fits nicely on the H100 and H300, you also have the Remote to be concerned about.

As well, the Archos Jukebox Recorder has a smaller screen than the H100, and is incredibly space-limited.

I'm mostly thinking about the remote screens for the iRivers.
At 128x64 the iRiver RLCD is a little tight.
At 112x64 the Recorder LCD is a disaster.

I also do not find it confusing because UP/DOWN will select different lines, LEFT/RIGHT will change the selected value and only SELECT would change the active state of the channels. If a user does not press SELECT they wouldn't even notice any difference.

Also there was discussion in IRC about using icons. I think icons would be even better.
My main point in all of this was to get it to fit better on the RLCD and get the Gain(s) on a single line since the vast majority of all users never need to 'imbalance' their Left/Right Gains.

 ;D

Here are some Simulator screenshots of the WRS while source == Line-In.

Mmmm:
They all look pretty good to me! :)

OK, so on the Iriver remote AGC isn't displayed all the time, I'll give you that.... I suppose it would be better if it was, but I think your solution confuses things too much.

petur:
good luck getting the two values on one line + have meaningfull text in front of them ;)
do check this for Archos...

I'm still for scrolling. The top can stay fixed and below the peakmeters we can put a list with a scrollbar so the user sees there are more items to change on the fly...

Other option is to remove the AGC setting and maybe frequency from the screen as you can still change it on-the-fly by going to the settings menu. And just keep the stuff we _really_ need to adjust on-the-fly on the main recording screen.

Davide-NYC:
For the Archos Recorder screen, assuming we're using chars instead of icons....
Here there is a problem since the line is not labelled. That's bad I agree but here it is anyway:

Volume: -00.0 dB
[<]-00.0|-00.0[>]
44.1 kHz Stereo

I'm of the opinion that once seen in 'action' it all become immediately intuitive.
(The chars should be replaced with spaces so the line doesn't jump around.)


What about number 2?

--- Quote ---AGC max gain setting should be accessed with a SELECT press, not a DOWN.
This way if anything need to be added to the WRS it can be added without modifying the button schema. 

(I'm thinking real-time encoding values in the future)
