Just testing the new beta, the first impression is quite a positive one. Especially the Bento skin with its dark default color theme looks very stylish.

How can I make a view query that shows the artist if the album artist is not filled in?

The Bento skin's "Visualization" tab seems to be incompatible to certain older plugins. For instance, my lyrics one (Joseph's DkE Lyrics plugin v1.0), which uses the vis function for displaying lyrics, can only be opened in a separate window. The internal one doesn't do anything at all in this case.

For testing purposes I had activated the Milk Drop vis (though I really hate these colourful eye-cancer causers), which turned out running fine inside Bento. Switching between window and fullscreen modes also didn't cause any troubles.

This build is solid. My suggestion is that you should be able to scale the album-art + infomation box, it seems a bit squished just in that small rectangle.

Looks like it will be some upgrade. I want to try it out, when it's released. Thanks benski, DJ-Egg, and all of the Winamp team!
