I will keep this update short and sweet. Beta 4 adds tons of new functions (and a few more variables) to now playing and I was able to address most of the playlist performance issues. The playlist details view now is a paginated list (only loads chunks of 50 at a time), and removed some of the file validation. A 25k playlist file that used to take 17 seconds to play should now play in 3-4 seconds.The custom metadata forum post will be updated with all the new capabilities shortly https://gonemadmusicplayer.proboards.com/thread/1066/gmmp-3-custom-metadata-info Here are some screenshots of the new $rating function which will take the rating variable %ra% and change it into a starred rating.3.0 Beta 4 (2020-04-07):New:-Added custom metadata variables for skipcount, playcount, queue position, queue size, and filesize-Added a bunch of new custom metadata functions: arithmetic, logic, control flow, and text manipulation-Added $rating to format %ra% into stars-The color tag for custom metadata now takes any color hex string-Added 'Jump to Library' shared action-Now playing toolbar menu will no longer show actions for any button added to now playing-Playlist details list is now paginatedFixes:-Fixed bug causing the volume to mute after closing volume dialog-Custom metadata list should now correctly refresh after importing from json-Fixed swipe delete in playlist details-Fixed issue that would require a theme reset to fix-Improved large playlist performanceNote: Google Play updates are taking longer than normal due to covid-19 so I do not know when the update will go live.
