Alright, I found that more than one image should be better. I posted a small video file . It will stream just fine in firefox or msIE if you have any version of flash but will have no controls ; the video will resize to the browser window as well, which is bad under 1280 (F11 will enhance size a bit). Better drag the link to media player classic...
If you want to stay in a browser, you can have 1:1 size AND controls (with scrolling) in msIE only using this page which has loads of javascript. This is lousy html and firefox will not pass the container stage.

The video shows concerns with:

Alt (title) tags. Including wraping issue.
Album comments
Rating graphics inconsistencies with half stars involved

.
I barely edited the file, so sorry for a couple of lengthy parts...

The album comments need to be turned on in the options, going by the settings you posted you didn't.

Code: Select all

' Show album comments
blnShowAlbumCommentCA = 0  '0 No, 1 On top of tracklist, 2 Under tracklist, 3 Under album information

As you can see it allows various positions you can located the comments. This only works for the albumlistings page.

The alt/title field should work for the buttons, maybe something went wrong in the translations page. The column titles and text that isn't a link doesn't containt a tooltip.

Bummer ! I DID check this setting but I passed it when I saw it was set at 0 (which is usually .. yes )

Set at 3 (under album information) : long comments don't fit. At 1, it's a little better for long comments, but still ugly. What do you think of a "...Read more link", after, say... 50 characters?

I tried to revert to en. language. same behaviour.

I'm not a big fan of the read more link as locating the comment with the album is the most logical. Long comments wouldn't work under the album art due to the short width, it does work for short comments.

Longer comments should be located above or under the playlist where I personally consider under the best. If you have suggestion on how to make the text look better when located there I will take that in consideration.
