Unless I'm misunderstanding the question, I just copied a music folder to my OneDrive folder, added it as a synced folder and I can see the song in my library and play it.

 

Yep. Thats what I am talking about. Awhile ago I tried MusicBee and it couldn't read any of my music in onedrive.

Do you perhaps have the tracks only available online? Other than that I can't think why it wouldn't but Dopamine certainly worked OK for me, but it was available offline.

I'm talking about volume ... and yup, it is supposed to :rofl:

 

ohw volume! Don't know why I had play next/prev in my head. It's because of such question which was posted a while ago.

Yes, at the moment volume can be controlled by mouse scroll when the volume popup is opened. Should I allow scrolling to change the volume when the mouse is anywhere inside the mini player?

Hi all,

 

What do you think of this? The "playlist" view might still change, I'm not completely convinced. Any suggestions are welcome.

 

 

Edit: video was broken. It should now work.

Is there an option to specify the sort for albums under artists view? It looks to be alphabetical but was wondering if you can specify, say year instead?

 

Also, is it possible to deselect all selected albums in that same view?  It seems once one is selected, you can't deselect it to see all the song listings on the side unless you go to another artist first, then come back.

 

Thanks, and keep up the great work!

does your player support replaygain, if not any plans to support it?

 

I'd like to. But I still have a lot to learn before even considering this.

Sort for albums is not possible yet. I want to add it though, but I'm currently stuck at limitation of the control which I use to display the albums. I'll have to create a new control and use some trickery. So this feature is delayed until other basic features are implemented.

 

Deselecting can be done in 2 ways:

 

Option 1: ctrl+click

Option 2: click the "Artists" or "Albums" titles above the artists and albums lists

I have a suggestion if this has not already been suggested.

 

I just hooked back up to my NAS so had to do a rescan - not a problem, but when I chose to play an album with the autoscan running, every time it refreshed, it took me out of the album view.  So, I had to hunt it down again to get to the next song. 

When you click on playlist ... the text animates up from the bottom over the album art 

 

The animation may (and I mean 'may') look better if the album art moved down and faded out, to reveal the static text list behind it. You did ask for suggestions  :shifty:

 

Indeed I did ask :) Suggestion very welcome. I'll probably try it after release of the next build. I want to get this out the door asap, but still have to fine-tune the indexer.

It has been suggested indded and will probably be disabled in the next build. I'd like to do some kind of update of the lists, without reloading them completely. However that probably be for later.

Not sure if you want bugs posted on here, but I happened upon a crash.  I was just going through the artists tab and when I selected an album with one song, it didn't display anything.  I clicked the album and it crashed.  Here is the log entry for that time:

I reloaded the app and went back to that artist and everything worked from then on out.

    • Media Player Classic - Home Cinema 2.7.2 by Razvan Serea Media Player Classic - Home Cinema (MPC-HC) is a free and open-source video and audio player for Windows. MPC-HC is based on the original Guliverkli project (which is no longer maintained) and contains many additional features and bug fixes. As the continuation of the original Media Player Classic, MPC-HC isn’t flashy but it works with nearly any media format. MPC-HC uses DXVA technology to pass decoding operations to your modern video card, enhancing your viewing experience. And MPC-HC supports both physical and software DVDs with menus, chapter navigation, and subtitles. Overview of features A lot of people seem to be unaware of some of the awesome features that have been added to MPC-HC in the past years. Here is a list of useful options and features that everyone should know about: Dark interface Menu > View > Dark Theme When using dark theme it is also possible to change the height of the seekbar and size of the toolbar buttons. Options > Advanced Video preview on the seekbar Options > Tweaks > Show preview on seek bar Adjust playback speed Menu > Play > Playback rate The buttons in the player that control playback rate take a 2x step by default. This can be customized to smaller values (like 10%): Options > Playback > Speed step Adjusting playback speed works best with the internal audio renderer. This also has automatic pitch correction. Options > Playback > Output > Audio Renderer MPC-HC can remember playback position, so you can resume from that point later Options > Player > History You can quickly seek through a video with Ctrl + Mouse Scrollwheel. You can jump to next/previous file in a folder by pressing PageUp/PageDown. You can perform automatic actions at end of file. For example to go to next file or close player. Options > Playback > After Playback (permanent setting) Menu > Play > After Playback (for current file only) A-B repeat - You can loop a segment of a video. Press [ and ] to set start and stop markers. You can rotate/flip/mirror/stretch/zoom the video Menu > View > Pan&Scan This is also easily done with hotkeys (see below). There are lots of keyboard hotkeys and mouse actions to control the player. They can be customized as well. Options > Player > Keys Tip: there is a search box above the table. You can stream videos directly from Youtube and many other video websites You can stream videos directly from Youtube and many other video websites Put yt-dlp.exe or youtube-dl.exe in the MPC-HC installation folder. Then you can open website URLs in the player: Menu > File > Open File/URL You can even download those videos: Menu > File > Save a copy Tip: to be able to download in best quality with yt-dlp/youtube-dl, it is recommended to also put ffmpeg.exe in the MPC-HC folder. Several YDL configuration options are found here: Options > Advanced This includes an option to specify the location of the .exe in case you don't want to put it in MPC-HC folder. Play HDR video This requires using madVR or MPC Video Renderer. After installation these renderers can be selected here: Options > Playback > Output Ability to search for and download subtitles, either automatically or manually (press D): Options > Subtitles > Misc Besides all these (new) features, there have also been many bugfixes and internal improvements in the player in the past years that give better performance and stability. It also has updated internal codecs. Support was added for CUE sheets, WebVTT subtitles, etc. Media Player Classic - Home Cinema 2.7.2 changelog: Updated LAV Filters to version 0.81-23-g6fadb Updated MPC Video Renderer to version 0.10.2.2540 Updated MediaInfo DLL to version 26.05 Updated MPC Audio Renderer Several crash fixes, bug fixes and small improvements.

    • No problems here using the new Outlook. In our company we started to default installing to users on new computers or when we're reimaging. But, if the user needs/ask for the classic one, we install it. Low reject rate at this point.
    • Yeah it's my only home/business computer. The Surface Pen magnetic Storage is on the left side, but it doesn't charge the Pen. I do the charging once every 6+ months by interchanging between 2 rechargeable AAAA batteries and charging the other via a USB A battery charger.
