Hi Joey,

in git, ncmpc has improved VERY much in that regard.  It's using MPD's
idle events now to update immediately after an event.  Right now, I
can't tell you a release date.  Most of what's left in the 0.16
release cycle is testing, which you could help with.

Bug#551271: volume display blockiness

2009-10-16 Thread Joey Hess
Package: ncmpc
Version: 0.15-1
Severity: normal

Now when using the left/right arrow keys to adjust the volume,
the volume displayed by ncmpc never updates until 1 second after the
last keypress.

Example: I am connected to a playing mpd. Volume is at 44%. I mash down
the left arrow key, and hear the playing music fade down to zero. But
the volume display still says 44%. I mash the right arrow key, and pump
it up to max. Still 44% displayed. I drop down to a comfortable level
with the left arrow key. Still 44% displayed. I stop pressing keys.
Volume display finally updates to 60%.

Effectively there is no difference, the arrow keys still smoothly adjust
the volume. But this blocky updates makes it *feel* less responsive.
Also I sometimes want to go from 40% to 60%, and now there is no visual
feedback to make that easy to do.
