Changing playback speed in version 2.4

Maybe instead of showing the delete button, the presets could be deleted when long-pressing. Makes it less likely that it is done accidentally. What do you think @keunes?

I think that’s a good idea.

• Simple tap to have an overview with presets and the slider.
• Long-press to have a dialog to manage the presets.

I think the ‘selection’ dialog should have an ‘Add/Edit* presets’ button (bottom-left) to open the ‘manage’ dialog (* depending on whether there are any or not).

Also pondered if (in addition) we might

• display the selection dialog if there’s no presets (allowing users to use the slider)
• simply toggle if there’s one or two presets
• display the selection dialog if there’s three or more presets

But that might just create extra confusion.

If you keep considering users with more complex use cases the app wiil become complex.

Don’t worry. Simplicity is in our ‘charter’, so it’s kept in mind (even if in this case we opt for another than your preferred solution). And we’re listening to your feedback here, having a good discussion with an exchange of arguments.

@Jose_Luis_Borges

Advanced users and complex use cases it is not the same thing.

The user test that @ByteHamster did was neither with advanced users, neither did it involve ‘complex use-cases’. Still it stressed people out.

@Jose_Luis_Borges

I appreciate the discussion, but my point is still valid. Two things that I use often are now more difficult. As a user, that is not good.

I’m still not sure how tapping in a dialog is ‘more difficult’ than tapping an x number of times. How many presets do you have exactly? And what makes it more ‘difficult’? Is it that you have to be precise with your finger movement because of the risk of accidentally deleting the preset?

@gomezz

having a quick access function bar which allows each user to have their own few preferred functions may be a way to go

This sounds like a setting to determine which settings are displayed. Introducing that will open a Pandora’s box with requests to add new possible settings which could all be included in the settings list, because it doesn’t matter if that list gets mega-long. I think that falls outside of the ‘simple but feature packed’ grey zone (on the ‘too complicated’ end of the spectrum).
