great

you'll soon be faster than our requests

adding everything to the playlist with the remote works pretty good!
(if somebody reads this and is interested in using a remote control here's how to do it with the Girder software:
- a "find" button to execute the Escape key (in case you typed a wrong number and want to start again), then the keyboard shortcut to bring the Find box.
- an "ok" button to execute the Return key to process the search, then the Escape key to close the find box, then the Space key to add the result to the main playlist.
press "find", then dial, then press "ok"

)
i ran into two problems related to search, would it be possible to restrict searching to the first "n" characters of each nodes?
- when i dialed number 96 it found album number 7 instead because this one was released in 1996. i could disable the display of Year, but there will always be an album with a number in it's name.
- i don't know why, but now when i search for 12 for example, it only finds track numbers while it worked perfectly and it only found album index 12 a few minutes ago. i could disable track numbers but it's the same than for the albums, if a title contains a number it's likely to fail at some point in the future.
it's not important since it works already well like it is, but i noticed that the %overallindex% is numbering like that:
CODE
- 1 All
- 2 - Albums
+ 3 - album
+ ...
+ 233 - album
- 234 - Compilations
+ 235 - compilation
- 1 All
+ 2 - Albums
+ 234 - Compilations
this numbering would look more natural when the nodes are not expanded:
CODE
- 1 All
- 2 - Albums
+ 4 - album
+ ...
+ 233 - album
- 3 - Compilations
+ 235 - compilation
- 1 All
+ 2 - Albums
+ 3 - Compilations
when unchecking "restore tree after search" foobar isn't slow to shut down anymore for me as well.
i found what was causing my slow foobar shutdowns:
when "restore tree after search" is checked and if using search, if i don't press Escape after my first search and erase manually what i typed to do another search, the node selection is messed up (when i click on a folder it doesn't turn blue) and all my next search attempts fail: the Playlist Tree background turns red if i search for a number higher than two digits.
if i close foobar while in this situation, it is quite slown to shut down, while the horizontal and vertical scrollbars from the Playlist Tree eventually blinking up/down and left/right.
if i uncheck "restore tree after search" this behaviour still happens, but it only slows down foobar's shutdown by a very small amount of time.
if i hit the Escape key to close the "find box" everything is back to normal and foobar closes down fine.
if i use the "Playlist Tree Search" toolbar as a column_ui panel instead of the "find box" that pops up in the column_ui panel when i use the keyboard shortcut, hitting Escape goes back to normal behaviour but i experience the slow shut down with blinking scrollbars.
