Feedback on new release Phase One Media Pro Version 1.0.1.5
Hi
The first release didn't enable us to catalogue simple jpegs. This version does, but still has problems:
1. Populating the metadata fields below the thumbnails takes a long time, even if the set has already been imported. Basically this isn't usable unless you don't value your time.
2. The colour scheme is ghastly, with the metadata fields in particular very hard to read. Whoever thought white on black would be a good look needs to go back to design school.
3. We tried to change view of the thumbnails (what fields were displayed beneath and so on), but couldn't save our selection as the default, or a named default. It just went back to how it was before.
4. The programme still crashes frequently, something which also plagued Expression Media.
Cheers

I noticed that on the Mac version they didn't change the color scheme in the info section at the bottom. Look at that nice black on white and smile:

Colors, GPS/MAPS/ Face detection......hahaha..I wish my Mpro probs were so simple!
The colors and all these great functions that may or may not work...FOR NOW...lets just get the DAM thing to work with opening and closing, and generating thumbs for PSD, and lightbox being on a 2nd screen without a second lightbox in the browser window, speeding through doings its updating as we can't even use it without this function finished. then getting a good balance of the RAM resources it needs while having PS open even with 16GB RAM with 80% allocated, etc....and 10 other basic functions that are glitchy.....Sure it needs a lift, but likely the programmer that is fixing the serious issues is already working away on the core (i surely hope so)....And while he is at it can make a few quick color updates.0
