Before I get to my reason for post I wanted to add a note. As the user who posted just prior to me, I appreciate the NFO output of tMM. I am aware of the users that have/had issues with Kodi as of late, and I think the response from Kodi is disgraceful. As an open source software, it seems very inappropriate to say that the only true or real NFO is generated by their software. So to the team here at tMM, although not always perfect, your intent on staying universal and non corrupting is greatly appreciated.
That said ... I want to make sure I am using the proper version, 3.0 from date 2019-01-14. There have been a great deal of changes from v2 and v3, so I try to look at v3 as a new piece of software vs an update. One thing that I find difficult to work with is the close/minimize/maximizer controls. I know that on v2 they were also located to the right side, but in v3 there are some changes to things like the popup dialog for the filter options that now require a closing vs just clocking off of the window to rid of it. This is awkward for me mainly because my controls are all on the left vs the right, so my natural flow is to go right. My guess would be that since this is very minor and constraints of java that a programming change of sorts is just not realistic. The reason I mention this is to see if there are any ways of making the interface less static. Some other examples of this are I often see new dialogs open under the referring dialog, so if that dialog is smaller in size, it ends up hidden by its parent. Since the dialogs cannot be resized or repositioned, this creates issues. I know this sounds overly picky and minuscule, but I thought it is at least worth mentioning as there is so much work already going into a complete redesign, this would be the time to address such things.
Finally, are there more recent builds of v3 available?
