Suggestion: newer visual style to file "Information" window
Posted: Thu Jan 05, 2012 6:39 amhi,
For quite sometime now, since SMPlayer 0.67 days and before, I have never been keen on the visual style of the "Information" window.
I like how the text size in this window is configurable via CTRL (hold)+mouse wheek scroll..
..The information displayed is clear enough and comprehensive in SMPlayer's Info window along with the featured colored grid highlighting:
But when I look at the file information presented to me in a default foobar2000 application, along with the font in fb2k, it feels visually pleasing to look at:
So I have created this (below image) mock-up of a more tweaked (fb2k) style incorporated into SMPlayer:
-I've tweaked the text size and layout somewhat plus I have used MediaInfo library info display plus using Segoe UI text font (Win 7). Regardless of audio of video it would IMO have this more tweaked display. Any audio stream could still have remain it's sub-heading too
Thanks for reading.
