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:

 

2015-03-30 12:18:04.1884|Error|Dopamine.Application.ExecuteEmergencyStop|Unhandled Exception. Exception:

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

 

 

Yes you can report bugs in this thread. Thanks, I'll into it.

First little grievance I noticed is that max,min etc options seem to be hidden, unless I select the track view. I like that its not visible by default, but I feel it should slide down if I mouse hover over the top, otherwise it requires (potentially) more mouse clicks to get back to full or minimised views.

 

These options shouldn't really be needed much, but I fiddle with the view a lot :p

 

I can see this being a personal preference so would be good to see if others find this OK or not?

I was curious how people would react to that :) I'm expecting more feedback. I could restore the behaviour from the previous version rather quickly if it's too annoying.

 

Btw, double click on the album art restores full view. Minimize is not directly available however.

 

What do you think about the list view? Does it display useful details? Btw, I don't show the track number on purpose, because it looks rather weird when more than 1 album is displayed in the mini player.

I've found a reason to need both max and min with it sat there today.

 

The display works for me, I don't have that big of a collection and its a lot of one off tracks rather than albums so track number would mean little to me.

 

In that case, I'll fix it for you :)

My obligitory comment on volume control in mini player :rofl:

 

At it stands now, you need to click the volume icon and then move the mouse into the slider area before the scroll wheel adjusts the volume. Any chance you could have the volume slider appear on mouse over of the volume icon (so I don't have to click it), and allow the scroll wheel to adjust the volume from both the slider area but also the volume icon area. This would reduce the movement/clicks needed to change the volume. Once you mouse over the volume icon, any scroll wheel adjustment adjusts the volume.

Damn you! No, just kidding of course :D

 

You are so right and I'll add it to the next build. Should the popup also close automatically when you stopped scrolling?

I see this is iTunes music. Could there be DRM on it?

I'm seeing the same error on MP3 and M4a files. I had installed the build earlier but didn't have any music in my library. Added that in (awesome improvement in speed on the indexer!) but now I'm trying to play files, no go. Error city.

 

Edit:

Ok, it seems exclusive mode is needed on the output. With it on, files play. With it off, error.

COuld you try disabling Wasapi event mode in the options and try playing again? That was added in this build. When you disable event and exclusive mode, it plays like the older versions. I curious if that is the issue.

I'd like one of those files for testing, as I can't reproduce it with my files. Would you mind sending one to me?

Event mode (I dunno what that is) has no impact. Exclusive mode off (event on or off) ... no playback. Exclusive mode On (event on or off) the files play.

 

I doubt it is a file issue. I tried about 20 different songs (mix of mp3 and m4a) and once exclusive mode is off they don't play. Might be an issue with the PC hardware? If you want a file, no worries. PM me an email address.

Same for me, exclusive mode on, files play, exclusive off, files don't. Thanks for the fix anyway! :)

It sure can be hardware related. Not all audio hardware works will all wasapi options. But still, you were able to play with the older builds without exclusive mode on, so I'm wondering if the audio lib guy didn't break anything :) Maybe your files might help.

    • Microsoft Edge 149.0.4022.52

      By Copernic · Posted

      Microsoft Edge 149.0.4022.52 by Razvan Serea Microsoft Edge is a super fast and secure web browser from Microsoft. It works on almost any device, including PCs, iPhones and Androids. It keeps you safe online, protects your privacy, and lets you browse the web quickly. You can even use it on all your devices and keep your browsing history and favorites synced up. Built on the same technology as Chrome, Microsoft Edge has additional built-in features like Startup boost and Sleeping tabs, which boost your browsing experience with world class performance and speed that are optimized to work best with Windows. Microsoft Edge security and privacy features such as Microsoft Defender SmartScreen, Password Monitor, InPrivate search, and Kids Mode help keep you and your loved ones protected and secure online. Microsoft Edge has features to keep both you and your family protected. Enable content filters and access activity reports with your Microsoft Family Safety account and experience a kid-friendly web with Kids Mode. The new Microsoft Edge is now compatible with your favorite extensions, so it’s easy to personalize your browsing experience. Microsoft Edge 149.0.4022.52 changelog: Migration to improved V2 architecture for Workspaces. Workspaces, introduced in Edge in 2022, allows users to create durable sets of tabs that can be saved and shared with others. In order to improve reliability and performance of this feature, the following changes are being made: Migrating data for saved Workspaces from OneDrive/SharePoint to Edge Sync service Removing the collaboration/share functionality of this feature For organizations who have disabled Sync through policy, the existing v1 Workspace data will still be migrated to the new architecture. New v2 Workspaces created after migration won't sync across devices and will remain local to each device. This update occurs on a progressive rollout beginning in Edge Stable v145 and will continue rolling out in Edge v149. For more information, see Getting started with Microsoft Edge Workspaces. Feature Updates Passkey Sync for Enterprise Users. Microsoft Edge is introducing support for passkey synchronization for enterprise users, enabling secure, passwordless authentication across devices. Passkeys created in Edge can now be synced seamlessly, improving sign-in experience while maintaining strong security standards. Note: This is a controlled feature rollout. If you don't see this change, check back as we continue the rollout. Enterprise WebView2 runtime downgrade via DowngradeVersion policy. Administrators can temporarily roll back specific applications to a previous WebView2 Evergreen Runtime version (N-1 or N-2) using the new DowngradeVersion policy in msedgewebview2.admx. The Downgrade Version policy allows enterprises to mitigate critical regressions by specifying per-application exe-to-version mappings. The Edge Updater installs the target version side-by-side, and the WebView2 Loader redirects targeted apps accordingly. Downgrades auto-expire with each new WebView2 release: apps pinned to N-1 remain on the same version (now becoming N-2) and will auto-update in the next release, while apps pinned to N-2 will revert to the current Evergreen version. The policy applies only to enterprise-managed devices (domain-joined or MDM-enrolled). For more information, see Microsoft Edge WebView2 Policy Documentation | Microsoft Learn. Collections retirement. Collections has been removed in this update. Users can no longer access or use the feature. To keep saved content, users can export it, or move all pages to Favorites before updating to Microsoft Edge Stable 149. For more information, see Organize your ideas with Collections in Microsoft Edge - Microsoft Support. Modern, unified, and updated Look and Feel. Microsoft Edge has updated the Look and Feel to give customers a unified experience across all of Microsoft AI surfaces including Copilot and Bing. This changes multiple elements of the UX such as spacing, corners, fonts, default colors, etc. Clarify choices surrounding third-party cookie settings. Language under Settings > Privacy, search, and services > Cookies are clarified to better describe the choices users have in managing third-party cookies. Custom primary password retirement. Users are no longer able to create a new custom primary password in Edge Settings edge://settings/autofill/passwords/settings. Any users who are still using a custom primary password will be automatically migrated to device authentication. Additionally, the PrimaryPasswordSetting policy will no longer support the WithCustomPrimaryPassword option. For more information, see Keep your saved passwords private in Microsoft Edge | Microsoft Support. Unifying Copilot Chat policy controls. The Microsoft365CopilotChatIconEnabled policy is the standard for configuring Copilot Chat. Previously, this behavior was controlled by blocking the Copilot extension, either explicitly or by using the * wildcard via the ExtensionSettings or ExtensionInstallBlockList policies. Extension and sidebar policies no longer affect the appearance or functionality of Copilot Chat. Copilot address bar suggestions were also tied to extension policy settings. Starting in Microsoft Edge version 149, admins can use the CopilotAddressBarSuggestionsEnabled policy to manage this behavior. Intune MAM Protected Downloads. The protected downloads feature for Intune MAM is now available for BYOD (Bring Your Own Device) devices, which aren't managed by a tenant.

    • Media Player Classic - Home Cinema 2.7.2

      By Copernic · Posted

      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.

      By Jolo · Posted

      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.
