Hey thanks for this great homebrew, its really nice looking and handy.

I know its early in the lifetime, but i was wondering if it might possibly be handy to directly have file information displayed on the main screen, (size, filetype, ect)
Basicly propperties without having to go trough 2 menu clicks everytime to get to it.

Hope to see futher improvements in time

It used to be like that before, but the screens for the 3DS is rather small, so I decided against that.

Release v4.0.1 is up.


Change-log:

• Added touch controls in update menu.
• Added music lock toggle using the Start button. (Prevent skipping with L/R buttons when the lid is closed)
• Properly return to previous directory instead of first entry if you press B and the selector is > 5.
• WiFi icons are back!
• Power off top screen back-light during FTP mode to save battery.
• Finally fixed UTF-16 file names and paths. (Now works fine with accented characters/symbols)
• Fixed milestone updates not being integrated properly. (Should work fine for the next official release builds)
• Fixed crash when trying to use the Keyboard (rename/new folder/search).
• Fixed the progress bar colour in dark theme mode.
• Get album list just once instead of multiple times to avoid random crashes due to multiple calls in a short period of time.
• Fix issue with audio decrementing when shuffle is on.
• Fix 'freeze' when WiFi is not enabled.

is it normal for the cia version to not show up in activity log? a lot of my other installed homebrew shows up.

Loving this amazing project so far, and thanks for everything. This is now my go-to music player for the 3DS.

Quick questions though: Does my cover art need to be a certain size to show up when playing a song? Because my cover art doesn't show up for me, it just shows the music note icon. And does it read cover art from the folder (cover.jpg/folder.jpg), or from embedded in the music file?

Sorry, but there is no cover art implementation currently.

Could there be in the future?

Could there be in the future?

Perhaps one day I'll try to get it implemented.

Not sure if anyone noticed, but nightly builds were down for a month but they're now back up.

@Joel16 you're the best!

just wanted to say a big thank you for developing this application. literally amazing both in functionality and aesthetics! congrats!! this will probably be something I will always keep with me.

honestly excited for it to support txt reading (books, yay!) and maybe one day a couple video formats? really great stuff really.

Text reading will happen at some point but books, probably not. Iirc someone was working on an ebook reader, maybe you can look into that. Thanks for the kind words! I'm always looking to improve.

I meant bc there are books in .txt format
I don't think anyone will make a decent ebook reader so if you support that in the future I'll be happy enough!
no problem friend! good work deserves appreciation and this is great work. you're very talented.

basic .epub support would be more than fine for ebooks. It's the best and most common format out there for any device.

Nice, I was looking for alternative to booting in GM9 all the time, and I love the theme, reminds me of ES File Explorer. Keep up the great work.

I am gonna leave a small request to be chuckled at or pushed to the back pile, ID3 Tag editing.
