Uh, can't believe I never noticed before but, is it not possible to sort albums by year? I only see a-z and by date added.

 

Not yet. The question that has been holding this feature off is:

What defines an album's year? Knowing that the year is saved per track. Should I take the year from the track with the most recent year? For regular albums this won't be a problem, because all tracks have the same year. But what for compilations?

Check if it's a real album by querying some online source, and if you can't find it, default to the directory creation date. Or something like that. Unless you already have album metadata of course, in which case you can check that. I suppose it depends on how the compilation is created. If it's done through your program, then you're already in a position to assign it custom metadata.

The way Winamp does it is that if there's different years in the album tracks, it takes the oldest for the ordering and appends the other year(s) after the oldest one in the album view. I think this is a good compromise.

typically I would think that a compilation album would be tagged with the year the compilation was published

Thank you! I never tested on 5.1, but if if doesn't work, it's probably not implemented. I'll add to my task list to check this out.

Edit: quoting is broken sometimes.

I had success with the playlist by inserting c:\ and changing the name in Users. I have no idea why it picked up my name instead of the name Windows gave User (aleks_000).

I would suggest, maybe, something that checks the file path when importing a playlist and gives an error on a track is not found.

Also, I may be missing it, but is there an option to hide the taskbar element while having the player running in nano/micro/cover?

It's correcting the user that most likely fixed it. As I've added support for rooted paths (starting with "\") in the previous build. I'll log a bug that a prompt should be shown when a path is not found. Thanks for the suggestion.

There is no option to hide the taskbar in Mini mode.

Also, a general suggestion... when in Micro mode, the ability to change the mp3 tags would be handy, since so many mp3s have errors in the tagging.

I didn't click anything, it was playing a playlist in the micro mode and crashed in the middle of a track.

OK thanks for the info. Then it's the audio lib that brought it down. I'll see if I can prevent this in the future.

Edit: for tagging in the Mini players: that is coming soon. After the Windows 10 makeover I start working on rating and tagging.

Amendment to that; it works when it loses focus on a normal window, but on a game/media window the generic buttons stops working.

What else do you have open while listening to Dopamine? These other media and game things I'm interested in.

It seems to stop working on SWToR and Rocket League, I'll test other stuff later, but it seems something with a conflict with game media, which is weird, since I was running it all day yesterday without errors.

I just found out I did something silly in my playback service. It might be caused by that. I'll work on that for the next build.

Funny bug this is. If 2 things happen in the same 0.25th of a second, dopamine crashes :) That makes it kind of random.

Is gap-less playback supposed to be working at this point?

Also just noticed that selecting 16 files or more, does not give you the option to Open, in the right click menu. 15 or less is fine.

    • OpenAI is now rolling out Lockdown Mode to more ChatGPT users

      By pradeepviswav · Posted

      OpenAI is now rolling out Lockdown Mode to more ChatGPT users by Pradeep Viswanathan Back in February, OpenAI first announced Lockdown Mode for users who want the most comprehensive protection from potential attacks. At the time of the announcement, the company mentioned that this feature was available to a small set of highly security-conscious users, including executives or security teams at leading organizations. Today, OpenAI announced that Lockdown Mode is now rolling out to all personal ChatGPT accounts, including Free, Go, Plus, and Pro, and also self-serve ChatGPT Business accounts. Users can enable the feature from ChatGPT Settings > Security when it is available for their account. When Lockdown Mode is enabled, ChatGPT limits or disables several features that connect to the web or external services. These include live web browsing, Deep Research, Agent Mode, and more. Here is the complete list of services that will be disabled in Lockdown Mode: Live web browsing: Web browsing is limited to accessing only cached content. Search results may be limited, unavailable, or stale. Image support: ChatGPT may not display images in regular responses or retrieve images from the web. Users can still upload image files, and image generation remains available where it is otherwise available. Deep research: Deep research is disabled. Agent mode: Agent mode is disabled. Canvas networking: Users cannot approve Canvas-generated code to access the network. File downloads: ChatGPT cannot download files for data analysis. ChatGPT can still operate on your manually uploaded files. It is important to note that Lockdown Mode does not completely block prompt injections from appearing in content that ChatGPT processes. For example, a malicious instruction could still be present in an uploaded file or cached web content. However, the mode is designed to reduce the ways such an attack could send sensitive information outside the conversation. Along with Lockdown Mode, OpenAI today also announced that the Active sessions feature is now available across ChatGPT accounts and workspace types. This feature allows users to review where their account is signed in across devices and end sessions if required. A session will have the following information displayed: Device or browser information. First-party app context, such as ChatGPT, Codex, or API Platform. Approximate location. Sign-in date and time. Whether the device is a trusted device. Whether it is your current session. OpenAI highlighted that the Active sessions feature will not be available for accounts linked to an organization’s single sign-on setup, including SAML or OIDC.
