Hello,
I absolutely LOVE being able to search and request from the app. I think this is a fantastic addition to already wonderful software. I have found some issues with it and they are listed below as well as Rotation issues.
In regards to that I've found something that I think needs to be taken care of immediately. When you add songs from the portable system it duplicates the names in the QUEUE rather than using the Current one that is in the rotation. An example of this would be adding songs for Singer 1. If you add 1 for Singer 1, then add another, a separate 'Singer 1' is created in the rotation RATHER than advancing the number of songs for 'Singer 1'. Seems that some type of logic needs to be devised to check if the 'Singer' indicated by the app is currently in the rotation. This seems like a major problem using the phone / tablet app during a show.
Another issue I've seen is how the rotation works. I've tried the following scenario and it seems there is definitely a problem.
Add Singer 1 song
Add Singer 2 song
Add Singer 3 song
Add Singer 4 song
Singer 1 is the first in BUT instead of Singer 2 being second, Singer 4 is the next queued up. Perhaps I am missing something but I'd think the rotation, or addition of singers / songs, should be in the order in which they are received UNLESS the singer / song is currently in the rotation then that singer's songs should be advanced by 1.
As you can see Singer 1 is first then 4 then 3 then 2 .. why is that??? Shouldn't it be Singer 1, 2, 3, 4?
Please let me know if you require additional information.
