Show first notification after loading metadata about cog HOT 5 CLOSED

from cog.

This is only happening because metadata is delay loaded. I suppose I could do like foobar2000 and forcibly load all metadata up front when all tracks are added. I wouldn't know the first thing about displaying a progress dialog for that, either, so I'll just sit there doing nothing until the data is loaded, then the tracks will appear and start playing.

Just a thought, what about force loading metadata only on the first track, start playing it, and then add the rest of the tracks and metadata slowly in the background?

Otherwise, waiting for all metadata to be loaded, before starting playback, can take a long time when adding a whole discography to the playlist, and it's better to leave it as it is.

Ooh, a very good idea. I’ll get right on that either tonight or tomorrow.

Seems to be working great so far. Thumbs up and cheers.
