SongKong 5.4 - With New and Improved Remote Mode

Today we release a new version of SongKong, and we have mainly concentrated on improvements to the Remote User Interface. 

Bootstrap

Have you noticed how many new websites have a similar style, chances are they are using the Bootstrap Web CSS framework, originally developed by Twitter. This provides a series of components that should work consistently in different browsers. Another advantage of this is that is has been designed to work well on different screen sizes such as phone, tablet and computer, known as responsive design. 

The SongKong Remote Mode now uses the latest version of Bootstrap. This means you get a more polished, responsive UI and it means that we can make changes to the web interface much more quickly.  We have not explored all the features of Bootstrap yet but we have now have a very good framework to build on.

 

 

Advanced Options

We know that SongKong's Fix Songs task has plenty of options, but although they are all have their uses most never need to be changed. There are some that are only relevant to a small subset of customers so they have now become Advanced Options in the Fix Songs task. They are not displayed unless you select the Show Advanced button and can be hidden again with the Hide Advanced button

 

Help

On tablet devices, its not very easy to use tooltips so we now provide the help inline beneath each option.

There are over twenty fixes and improvements in this release, and you can view the full list here
