Can't wait to try the mini player, installing it now

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.

 

 

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

 

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.

Great work Rapha

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

 

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

 

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

Agree with

 

It should fade away after few seconds, if not detect any scrolling or mouse event IMO.

 

Yes this is what I was thinking

Alright. Sounds like a plan.

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?

[jasondefaoite]

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!

Just noticed something on Anarkii's sig. We are both running windows 10 TP. Not sure if this is a possible difference between Rapha

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.

Yes I'm running Windows TP 10049 at the moment.

[jasondefaoite]

Files sent. I'm also on 10049 ...
