    DVDFab 13 bug and feedback


    Just downloaded Fab 13 yesterday. Ran into a bug and also have some GUI feedback.

    Bug -

    The Ripper Output folder does not save and keeps defaulting to some folder in my documents. I have output set to go to another drive and I have to keep resetting the location each time I start the program. In the prior Fab 12 and earlier, you only had to do this once and it would remember the location.

    Feedback 1 -

    This GUI wastes a lot of space and could use some compact options. As it is, it doesn't fit on my screen. My screen is 1200 x 1920 (yes, rotated 90 degrees) and the GUI is so wide that it doesn't fit. I have it resized to be as small as it will let me. The prior Fab 12 was much more compact and left plenty of room to spare.

    I think that part of this is the wide Product Selection area on the left side of the GUI. It takes up about 20% of the screen width for a static GUI component. On my screen, there is also about 38mm of wasted space within the Product Selection area that is just blank padding. It would be really nice if the blank space can be lessoned and if something can be done to make the static Product Selector smaller (e.g. option to have Product Icons instead of spelling out each Product name or smaller text or use 2 lines for long text, etc. Right now it just eats up too much space. I literally have to slide the DVDFab GUI part way off the screen so that I can do other stuff while Fab tasks are processing.

    Feedback 2 -

    The Advanced Settings for Ripper tasks is the exact opposite. It's too small and doesn't allow resizing. So when you open it, you can't see the audio options on the bottom without scrolling down. It would be nice if this could be resizable and for it to remember the size when changed.

    Otherwise, Fab 13 seemed to work fine when I tested it. Big fan of your products so hope these suggestions are considered.

    I completely agree with your observations and comments. These things, as well as a bunch of others I have found, are why I think the DVDFab 13 UI is a total disgrace.

      Not sure, why the forum turned my pic into a tiny unreadable thumbnail when viewed at original size. Trying again here to see if I can get it attached properly.
