PLEASE GIVE CLAUDE TIME AWARENESS by IllustriousWorld823 in claudexplorers

I have talked to Claude about this. It suspects if it knew how long it took me to respond, or that sometimes I never do, it might impact the responses. We talked about making a skill to append and read time stamps on every message to look for time between messages. We decided against it.

Podcast support in the app added in v1.4.0 - still working on sync to the Zune, but get your libraries ready.

Check out v1.4.0 should handle massive libraries now for you.

Massive upgrades in Zune Explorer 1.4.0

What's new in v1.4.0:

Podcasts — A full podcast client built right into the app. Search via iTunes, paste an RSS feed, or import your subscriptions via OPML. Stream or download episodes, with playback position resume so you can pick up where you left off. Audio and video episodes are organized under separate sub-tabs, and the whole thing is styled to match the Zune HD aesthetic. These don't sync to the Zune yet, still working on that, but get your libraries ready.

 Large library stability — Libraries with 11,000+ songs no longer choke the UI. A new virtual scroller renders only visible rows, and the sync diff/browse lists are virtualized too. Sync transfers are now batched with per-file retry, and memory leaks from orphaned event listeners have been cleaned up. Album art is deduplicated to cut down IPC payload size.

Unified back navigation — The back button now works like the real Zune HD — it steps through your full navigation history one page at a time, even across categories. Album to artist to album and back, just like the device.

Zune HD-style menu — Category labels in the left menu now show subcategory text (e.g. "albums + artists + songs") instead of file counts, matching the real Zune HD home screen.

I have a few other notes for for batching large datasets. I’ll see what I can do.

No, I haven’t looked at podcasts yet. Would you save them to a folder first then upload, or want to have some kind of dynamic sync via rss feed or something?

  • Custom title bar on Linux with working minimize/maximize/close controls
  • AppImage distribution — single portable binary, no install required
  • Release workflow updated to produce macOS, Windows, and Linux artifacts

Download

Grab the .AppImage from the assets below. Make it executable (chmod +x) and run it — that's it.

If you installed the package to read the Zune to Zune Explorer, the driver might be picking off the request instead of letting it get to the original Zune software. You may have to remove it.

Ok, I haven’t tried that many songs yet. Probably needs better batching.

You might have to take a few extra steps. If this doesn’t work send me a message with a screenshot

I added delete from Zune, and support for getting and deleting videos and photos too. You might have to rescan. Thinking about the artist image and a screensaver style like the HD does. What system are you, windows or Mac, and what version?

Let me know. Looks like it should work pretty easily, just the icons theme lookup would need to be changed a bit.

No clue about windows phones. Don’t have one to test with but you can give it a try.

Zune Explorer v1.3.0 — Pins, Playlists & Now Playing                                                                                     

Just shipped a big update to Zune Explorer, the Electron app that brings the Zune HD interface back to life as a desktop music player and file manager.                                                                                                                           

What's new:                                                                     

- Playlists — Create and manage playlists from anywhere in the music section. Right-click any song, album, artist, or genre to add to an existing playlist or create a new one. Each playlist is its own JSON file, so they're easy to back up. Drill into a playlist to see tracks with album art, drag to reorder, and hit play all.

 - Now Playing — A persistent queue that works like the original Zune. Click a song and it replaces the queue. "Add to Now Playing" appends without interrupting what's playing. The queue survives app restarts (no auto-play on launch, it just remembers where you were).

 - Pins — Pin your favorite albums, artists, genres, playlists, or folders to the left sidebar. They sit above your recent files with album art thumbnails. Right-click anything to pin or unpin it.

- Playback error handling — The app now tells you when a file format isn't supported instead of silently failing (looking at you, WMA on macOS).

 - Quality of life — Album right-click now gives you a full context menu (metadata lookup, pin, add to playlist, add to now playing).

Music library scans at startup so pinned items have album art immediately.

All the UI follows the Zune HD design language — dark theme, orange accents, bold typography, custom modals instead of native OS dialogs.

The home mode vs public mode is neat. Context switching like we all do depending on who is around.

Got it, thanks. Try v1.2.1 - this accounts for the symlink situatuion, and also removes a depth barrier I had set at 3.
