I am impressed by AWX. Nice job.

There is however something that every HTTP interfaces misses: ordering of audio files by tracknumber! If I want to playback an Mp3 album, I want it to playback in the original track order (especially live albums).

Is such a thing possible?

Currently the API has problems with the sorting and adding of songs to the playlist (see here). I will use a workaround: Get the album's songs, sort them and add each song to the playlist.
So in the next version of AWX album-songs will be added in tracknumber-order Wink

Does this not work for you (which browser?)?

Not really. I'm with firefox 3.6.10 windows. It seems to give same results with safari and always loads thumbs from the beginning.

I have only just tested this with firefox 3.6.10 on Windows 7. Everything worked fine. Maybe it loads too fast so that you cannot see the loading-process Wink

Here is version 0.2.6: http://www.mediafire.com/?7zxl9bmhbm8lw67

0.2.6:
- Added: Shortcuts for Context-Menu-Buttons (Close, Back, Clear, Search)
- Changed: Text is now automatically selected if search-input gets focus
- Changed: Files starting with "addons://" are ignored in file lists (windows only)
- Changed: Prevent error-box if no player is active and control-buttons are clicked
- Changed: Increased timeout-limit to 10sec
- Changed: Search is not started before the Enter-Key was pressed
- Fixed: Problems with windows-paths
- Fixed: Album-songs are not added to the playlist in tracknumber-order
- Fxied: Errors if no albums/artists exist

Hi, I'm loving the interface! It's nice and clear and good use of ajax so there's no reloads and everything works fast.
I do have a function request, but I'm not sure if it's doable.
Would it be possible to skip the movie by using the yellow progress bar on the bottom?

I'm not that much of a programmer, but if you let the user control the bar, get the width of it and converse it into time, and then use the
Code:
"VideoPlayer.SeekTime",

method to skip to it, that would be great.

Maybe it should already be working, but in that case consider this a bugreport, chrome on windows vista, xbmc on ubuntu 10.04

I had a quick look at this interface, feels great, very smooth.

In my debugging I noticed that in some places your not doing variable checking before specifying a path to the vfs, as such calls are being made to /vfs/undefined

Could you look into this; I'd like to see the issue resolved before adding it to the addon repo, if you submit it that is!

Keep up the good work
