Geoff Grace Posted January 24, 2022 Share Posted January 24, 2022 All of this talk about Invision brings back memories of the sampling company, InVision Lightware, that sold CD-ROM libraries for Akai (and other formats?) back in the ‘90s. I wonder what happened to them. Any relation? Best, Geoff Quote My Blue Someday appears on Apple Music | Spotify | YouTube | Amazon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Morrissey Posted January 24, 2022 Share Posted January 24, 2022 Perhaps others have already mentioned -- but I'm digging that posting to a thread doesn't reload the entire thread page. E.g., I just posted to a thread with a TY video embedded, and I was able to continue watching the YT video while I posted my reply. Slick! The old platform would have disrupted my viewing. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RichieP_MechE Posted January 25, 2022 Share Posted January 25, 2022 This is low priority but just making a note here- On the list of threads, can the number of pages display be changed? Red circle here: On the UBB software, the display would be something like 1 2 3... 9 10 11 I liked being able to click a couple pages before the most recent page to catch up on what I missed Though I am also now realizing that clicking on the thread title instead of page number takes me to the last unread post, so maybe my request doesn't matter anymore! 4 hours ago, MAJUSCULE said: In light of the amazingly smooth migration and the tidy work done since to tailor the new KC to our liking... (And while also reflecting back on some old posts around the time New Bay sold MPN out from under us and we had to set up the emergency backup and all that jazz!) I'm just gonna throw out another plug for the MPN Patreon page where anyone can feel free to kick in a couple bucks to support server costs and the like. As Patron #2, I wholeheartedly endorse this statement! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Docbop Posted January 25, 2022 Share Posted January 25, 2022 Have to say this new platform has really sped up my use of the forum. I'm retired so on my computer a lot all day and night since it is all music tool too. Because of that I check into the site many times a day. In past it would take me awhile to scan the post, decide what to read, and listen to some of the Youtubes posted, then mark everything read (even if I didn't read everything) and move on. With the new platform I'm in and out very quickly and that one click then OK I marked it all read and gone. So performance is much faster, I'm already getting used to the layout, and feeling this new software is a big step forward. Thank you all involved. Last I know I need to lose weight but do you have to label me MemberS. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With the new platform I'm in and out very quickly and that one click then OK I marked it all read and gone. Funny, I do the opposite. I'm really happy the new software doesn't mark threads as read unless I've read them. So, I can take a quick look and see if there are threads that I find interesting, read those, and leave the unread to catch up on later. UBB marked everything as read if I've been to a "subforum" such as KC, and sometimes would randomly mark everything read for reasons I never could figure out. There have been numerous times I didn't visit for a while and everything before a random-seeming date was marked read. It wasn't good for my OCG. 1 Quote "I'm so crazy, I don't know this is impossible! Hoo hoo!" - Daffy Duck "The good news is that once you start piano you never have to worry about getting laid again.

MathOfInsects Posted January 25, 2022 Share Posted January 25, 2022 Brother @Dave Bryce, do you know what accounts for the (apparently unironic) resurrection of zombie threads following the migration? Are some ways of viewing the site feeding those to the tops of some people's view? Not at all a complaint, just curious what the mechanics are that might have resulted in it. 1 Quote Now out!

Dave Bryce Posted January 25, 2022 Author Share Posted January 25, 2022 There are a few different ways to view and sort the forums now. That could definitely be responsible. I had three options for viewing the main forums and a bunch of content posted, one of which especially did not rely on latest posts. I took that one away, so we’re down to two now. dB 1 Quote ==> David Bryce Music • Funky Young Monks <== Professional Affiliations: Royer Labs • Music Player Network Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xKnuckles Posted January 25, 2022 Share Posted January 25, 2022 The post count thing is CRUEL!! I was at 1994 when we migrated...now I am back to 1963!! I was so excited about joining the elite and mysterious cult of the 2000+ (and learning the special handshake etc...) and it has now all been snatched away from me. This might seem just a small setback to most of you, but at the rate I have been posting it will take another 3 years to get there!!

xKnuckles Posted January 25, 2022 Share Posted January 25, 2022 On a more practical note, I find that when I get to the bottom of a page and hit 'next' it does not take me to the top of the new page. It would be great if this small detail could be added to the long 'to do' list... Thanks! Quote "Turn your fingers into a dust rag and keep them keys clean!"
