Direct shortcuts in OSD to enable/switch subtitles, download subtitles and switch audio track are extremely useful. I miss them in Aura too (especially since Horizon and (fuse)neue skins are not available in Leia)
On the OSD, the speech bubble with three dots downloads/enables/switches subs -
If the movie has subs, it will enable/switch subs. If the movie doesn't have subs, it will open the download subtitles dialog.
You can get to more subtitle options from the options gear icon at the end. I don't want to clutter the OSD with too many buttons, but I can add a direct audio track switch in the options gear menu.
Please don't get me wrong... you're doing great work and the skins are lovely and very appreciated.
However, I don't think adding these shortcuts is cluttering OSD with too many buttons. To be honest, this type of functionality - download subtitles, switch/shift subtitles and switch audio track - cover 99% of what I typically do in OSD. I use these even more often than play/stop/pause/shift because (unlike the above) these are directly bound to buttons on TV remote control.
If the functionality to work with audio/subtitles is "hidden" in a submenu it means that in order to activate it I need to do several *times* more clicks on a remote control to get to it. I.e. adding it to gear (sub)menu will help a bit but is still far from ideal.
I understand the need to keep the design clean but at the same time UX is very important too. After all, Horizon and (fuse)neue are yours too and the OSD in them doesn't look cluttered. I'd love to have a skin with Horizon/fuse-like OSD available in Leia.
BTW are there some statistics available which functionality/menuitems people use the most?
