CMC Settings page in CCC

Post by Teddyboy » Sun Jan 24, 2021 12:33 pm

Would it be possible to move the CMC settings page to CCC to allow it to have a more client server like function. I see you already have a CMC Users tab in CCC to control various aspects of CMC's behavior. Why not extend that to a settings tab. The setting tab would be global for all htpc's. Once you set up file, remote, and player choices you can push that out as a config file. You could give people the choice of having CMC setting done through CCC or as it is now which could be the default.

I'll think about it, but I'm not sure it makes the most sense.

One of the problems is that a lot of settings might be PC specific, and not global. I've already worried that I may have gone too far in this regard with some user settings, as there are a few things you might want to be PC specific instead of User specific (i.e. backgrounds).

I'm not ruling this out, but it would have to be done in such a way as to not break the ability to allow individual PC tweaks.

There's also a lot of missing functionality in line before I start adding capabilities like this, so this would be pretty low on the deliverables list.

I mostly wanted you to think about it. I figured it wasn’t a high priority.

Definitely thinking about it - in fact I was thinking about it months ago during the design phase.

But yeah, missing functionality definitely takes priority over moving existing functionality.
