Bugzilla – Bug 1599
Horizontal digital VU meter
Last modified: 2010-05-07 10:20:20 UTC
I think the Digital VU visualizer would look much better if it would operate in horizontal direction. Another suggestion for the VU meters: They should take into account the current volume of the SB2 (If the volume is low, the VU meter peaks should be low also).

Comment on attachment 678 [details] debian sox patches arghh... wrong bug!
This would be 500 times more interesting than the boring vertical meters, and bring back memories of my 20 year-old Aiwa cassette deck, if done right. Also, the peak hold bar decay rate needs to be a user-adjustable setting. The peak decay is a little too fast in the current small spectrum display (Now playing). And I disagree with the suggestion to change the meter length based on the current volume setting -- if I'm playing at a low volume I'd still want to see a full active display across the full width of the display, based on the current track dB at that instant. Maybe that could be a user preference too. This is probably obvious, but the display should look something like this: L HHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH----[]----------------------- R HHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH-----[]------------------- Extra credit if you can get the right edge of the bars to fade in brightness when they drop down.
I was thinking this would be good too the other day. Not going to make 6.5 though with the Transporter work.
Reassigning Squeezebox firmware bugs to Felix.
All new Squeezebox products are likely to be based on the SqueezePlay platform. We do not plan to implement any further enhancements to the ip3k firmware or which are targeted specifically at ip3k-based products.
