My goal for this program is to give the user the possibility to actually decide what they want to see on their display and what they don't want to see. When using the iMon Manager functionality you simply get what is implemented and if there is something you don't like you have two possibilities:
1. Go to the soundgraph forum, post your request and wait a month or two until you get a response that they consider implementing it (or not). If they actually do it takes another 2 - 3 months until it is in a release.
2. You just forget about it and live with it the way it is.
I want to provide the user with as many options as possible. Up until now there are not many options yet but in this very moment I'm working on an option which will allow you to define a pattern for the text which will display when a movie is being played. This pattern might look like this: "%title% (%year%)" or something simpler or more complex. Currently there are 12 possible values which can be combined in any way you can think of. The same functionality will be available for tv episodes and music songs.
I even want to go as far as letting the user define a list of texts containing these patterns which will then be displayed on the screen in the order they were configured, e.g.
(Whether all of these make sense or not is not the point here )
My point is that I personally prefer to be able to control what I payed for and iMon Manager simply doesn't provide me with that possibility. Anyone being happy with what iMON Manager provides does not have to use my program in any way. It's free to use and free to ignore
