Small 5.3.0 Issues

[Roger Mitchell]

I've just installed the latest nightly (23-09) and it does appear to have
fixed the empty playlists problem.

It now seems that I have a system that works more or less fully and I for
one, would like to offer my thanks to everyone that has worked so hard to
bring this about. I'm not going to play with nightlies any more - going to
leave that to the experts - I will wait patiently for the next formal
release and I promise not to "play" (except music of course)!!

Thanks for everything, team,
Regards
Roger, Newbury, UK

check the player settings for brightness. there is an option for auto-dim,
also the screensaver timing.

most likely. the patch is in now, so the nightlies should clear it up.

Thanks for checking on that. The next stable release will be 5.3.1 after a few
more quirks have been cleared out.
