How to Pimp the RV Media Player

Holida Sale

I’m not sure how you’ve been using the RV 2.0 media player, but I want to share a few tricks that can make the previewing process uber-efficient. Basically, I want to tell you how to pimp our player ;)

Before you start browsing for good tunes on our site, you might want to resize your main browser window so that you can fit it side-by-side with the media player window. (Unless you’ve got an unusually small screen, this should work ok.) After doing this, you’ll be able to see and use the media player simultaneously while browsing.

Next, I would suggest that you dive into our shop and start browsing through our releases, tracks, or samples (whatever your pleasure). You can browse through all releases, tracks, or samples, or you can browse through them by genre. Next, you can adjust your preferences to view 30, 50, 75, or 100 results per page. You will find a “cue all” button above your browsing results, which you can click to load all of the previews on a page. (This can be really efficient if you’re loading releases, each of which contain multiple tracks.)

RV INSIDER TIP –> After you get the previews loaded in our player, you can start pimpin’ by using the special hotkeys that we created. Here’s a little cheat sheet of commands that will let you avoid having to use a mouse.

* Space Bar : Play/Pause
* ‘M’ : Mute/Un-mute
* ‘P’ : Pause/Play
* ? or ? : Previous Track
* ? or ? : Next Track

It doesn’t get much more efficient than that! With a single click you can load dozens of previews in the player and then play them in rapid fire succession by just arrowing down. We’re adding so much good music to our site right now, you gotta be efficient to get through all the goodies ;)
