Yep, this build is really good. It works like a charm in Windows 10 14328 as well as in 10586 :laugh:

 

Raphaël, using the spacebar to pause the playback works unless I click on some other control of the UI first. If I do so, when I press spacebar, it doesn't pause the song I'm listening to, but instead it triggers whatever I have previously clicked on. I understand it totally makes sense, but I just want to let you know in case you want to make some changes so as to make sure that the spacebar always works to just pause the playback.

 

Cheers!

Hey Raphael! Great release. But I am having a problem with my Philips SHB7000 wireless headset and Dopamine. When using my headset's media keys, Next and Previous works as expected but Play/Pause doesn't work. Its not picked up by your Keyboardtest. Groove Music has no problem with my headset.
 

^ For Next and Previous. Nothing recorded for Play/Pause.

That one is difficult. Each time this issue is reported, I look it up on the internet, and realize there is no information about it. I'll log a bug and look into it again when I can.

Thanks for reporting that. It indeed makes sense, but is annoying :) I'd like space to toggle play and pause regardless of the UI component which is clicked. I've logged a bug.

I'm confident you'll eventually find a workaround :yes:

Hi Raphael,

 

I'm seeing an issue with the search functionality. It seems like the artist search works just based off of the 'Album Artist' tag.

 

So if I have an album that has an Artist tag, but a blank album artist tag, that album does not show up in any search results (only albums that also have the album artist tag do). see attached screenshot for example

Untitled.png

 

 

Also, on that note it would be nice if on the song list if the Artist was displayed if the album artist tag is blank (rather than showing unknown album artist). I have lots of albums that have an artist tag but no album artist tag, so in songs lists it can be a little annoying to see 'unknown album artist' under the album name for all of them. Or maybe an option to choose whether to display artist or album artist there.

Hi Raphaël,

 

I've been noticing a bug where I click on a genre and no albums show up although the albums show in the list view. Sometimes it might even be that only some albums show, but not all.

What happens when you scroll up? There is a know issue where nothing is shown when you scroll to the bottom of the album list, then select another artist or genre, then albums are not shown anymore until you scroll up.

I've created a bug and task for this. Thanks for reporting.

Hi everyone. In a day or 2 I'll release a new build. No new features, but quite some bug fixes. This is the current changelog:

 

- Added Traditional Chinese translation
- Added Simplified Chinese translation
- Languages are now ordered alphabetically in the language picker
- Fixed a bug in the auto updater
- Fixed window ToolTips not updated when changing language
- Fixed playback starting when switching default audio device even when playing nothing
- Fixed a bug where sorting headers were not updated when changing language
- Fixed a bug where a song, which is in more than 1 playlist, was removed from the wrong playlist.
- Fixed a bug displaying the year in the album ToolTip
- Fixed a bug where the albums list sometimes appears empty even when it contains albums
- Theme selection is changed and translated to the selected language
- Pressing [Space] on the keyboard doesn't start or stop songs anymore. It causes too many conflicts.

Great build coming our way! Thanks for the heads up, Raphaël!

 

I see the space thing is just a pita :rofl:

Yeah I gave up on it. As soon as I made the space pressing a global thing (accessible from anywhere in the application) the search field conflicted with it. Each time you pressed space in the field, songs would play or pause. I didn't want to add ugly workarounds to try to detect the that the user is searching or not.

Good Luck! :)

I'm afraid the deadline is already exceeded :rofl: Would have been great though, if I had a lot of time on my hands :) 

 

So what's next for Dopamine?

 

This build is rather good, quality wise. I'd like to release version 1.0 final as soon as I have confirmation that there are no critical issues left. After the release of 1.0, my focus will shift to the UWP version. Development on the desktop version will continue however. While the current focus is now 100% desktop, 0% UWP, I'd like to shift that to 20% desktop, 80% UWP for a short period of time. And once the UWP version is published, it should become 50% for both.

The 20% for the desktop version will allow fixing bugs and adding small features.

 

The UWP version will start simple and as a phone application only. Because I want to publish quickly, I won't spend time building an adaptive UI yet. The desktop version can fill that gap for now. Adaptive UI will be added later. The app will be polished and dynamic, just like the dekstop version. They will look very similar.

 

I'm having an issue where it will just crash when loading a new song. It happened twice on Friday, after I updated to 650. If I can reproduce it, what information do you want from me so that you can track it down?

 

 

Edit: It just happened again. Here's the last bit of the log.

well, I found that cycling through a list of songs in the now playing view will eventually result in a crash

Can you reproduce it? If yes, what steps did you perform?

The latest build is working really well so far.  Had some audio stuttering on the previous builds.  That seems to be gone and I've been using it for a few days now.  Awesome work.

I indeed worked on that. I gave the audio engine a higher priority.

Just cycling through songs in now playing mode will eventually cause it to crash for me.  Different tracks. Not reproducable on any particular track.  Don't know it it will do it if I don't hit the next button and just let it play on its own. Going to try that out for a while.  It only happens on the now playing view.

I'm not able to reproduce it. But I see where the bug happens and added a safeguard for the next build. That should fix it.

I found that it only happens when the spectrum analyzer is enabled and again, only in the now playing view.  I may be wrong, but it seems very hard to reproduce with it off.

That's what I was thinking when looking at the logs. It's trying to calculate the spectrum shape, but fails because an object is null. I couldn't reproduce it though. I'm not sure why. However my fix will catch this and prevent a crash.

    • Doom: The Dark Ages Revelations expansion gives the Slayer a brutal Chain Spear by Pulasthi Ariyasinghe Last year, id Software released Doom: The Dark Ages as a prequel to its reboot series, offering a look at the legendary Slayer character during an ancient war between Hell and Heaven. Today, at the Xbox Games Showcase, id Software returned with a new announcement that unveiled Doom: The Dark Ages Revelations as its first story expansion. The expansion will see the Slayer being betrayed and cast into a "merciless purgatory only escapable by confronting haunting truths." Somehow, there is one ally in all this chaos seemingly attempting to help our protagonist escape his fate. Players will be ascending this prison and fighting plenty of new demons and abominations as they work to free the Slayer's followers. One new aspect of the expansion will be the Chain Spear. This new weapon is described by the studio as a "uniquely satisfying combat system that rewards mastery with a potent combination of power and mobility." Check out the trailer below to see the new weapon in action, where the Slayer is seen using it to even pin enemies to walls. id Software is also preparing a free update to all owners of Doom: The Dark Ages that will land alongside the new paid expansion. Dubbed the Ripatorium 3.0 update, this will add more customization options, an improved pass code generation system, and preset options for players diving into the game's arena challenge mode. Expansion buyers will also receive additional maps, demons, and new weapons to use in this mode in addition to the story levels. Doom: The Dark Ages Revelations expansion is out on July 7 across PC, Xbox Series X|S, and PlayStation 5 with a $19.99 price tag. Those who own the Premium Edition or the Collector's Bundle will receive the expansion for no extra cost as well.
    • Hyped for this. Replayed the remasters recently and they're so well done, and Crash 4 was great too. I trust this team to deliver.
    • Ninja Theory's new Hellblade game is action-focused and set in Purgatory by Pulasthi Ariyasinghe Ninja Thery has been building its award-winning Hellblade series since 2017, delivering Senua's Sacrifice and Senua's Saga since then. Today at the 2026 Xbox Games Showcase, the studio had a brand-new installment announcement featuring Senua again, but this time, she is in a version of purgatory, and the focus is on the action. Simply named Senua, this new entry is described as a "full-on action-adventure" experience, delivering an expanded focus on combat, puzzle-solving, and freedom of exploration. The developer says that it is keeping the same high production values and storytelling features of the previous games while giving what players have been asking for in the gameplay department. The entirety of Ninja Theory is now working on Senua, giving the project much more manpower than ever before, while also letting the team draw on its action roots from Devil May Cry and prior titles. However, the studio also confirmed that its previously announced Project Mara horror experience is no longer in development. Alongside snappier traversal moves, Senua will be able to take stealth and direct combat routes. She has access to her own sword, plus any enemy weapons as well, with dual wielding also being an option for most dropped melee swords, axes, and other weapons. Outside of melee combat, Senua will be able to use special abilities that let her alter the reality around her. The world is said to be about twice the size of Hellblade 2. While this won't be an open-world experience, the linear story will let players explore their surroundings further than before. The story of Senua will be set after the events of previous Hellblade titles, with our protagonist being stuck in her own version of Purgatory. The series' well-explored psychosis themes will return as well. "She’s trapped between life and death on a quest to reach the afterlife and be reunited with the ones that she’s loved and lost," adds the studio. "Her belief is that by healing the wounds of her life, she can find the peace that is the key that unlocks the gate to the afterlife." Senua is releasing on Xbox Series X|S, PC, and PlayStation 5 sometime in 2027.
    • Windows has had it, it's called camera frame server. I recall when it was first introduced in an early Windows 10 release it caused issues and there was a registry entry to disable it. Seems like they disabled it by default at some point. Windows 11 brought that toggle to the settings app (not just registry) a while ago.
