Can you send me your logfile? I'd like to know what it is trying to do.

You can delete Dopamine.db. You can find it in folder %appdata%\dopamine

Here it is:

Excellent! I saw in your logs that you used build 685 at some point. I made a mistake in the database upgrade in that build. I suspect that it might have caused your issues (I pulled the build after a user notified me of issues, but it was too late).

Not sure if this bug came from this latest build but I added some new albums and it just hung forever trying to add album covers. I restarted Dopamine and those albums still don't have artwork.

 

Looks like the same issue I had. Try deleting Dopamine.db in %appdata%\dopamine , as @Raphaël G. suggested.

I broke the songs screen a bit in build 700. I released an extra build quickly: 1.1 build 702 Preview

 

- [Fixed] Shuffle doesn't perform a loop anymore. It is now possible to manually switch on Loop and Shuffle together.

- [Fixed] Fixed double clicking song on Songs screen only queues the clicked song

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.

Back in April I posted this. I think it was build 640. Back then I had to use Groove to satisfy my needs, so never really cared about using it when in Dopamine. Surprisingly It is fixed in build 700 and I have no problems using my headset. Went through each changelog, don't know what fixed the issue, .NET upgrade, or WASAPI or the Windows 10 AU. Now I don't need Groove at all :D

EDIT: Tried to install the 660 stable release by uninstalling the current version to check when it got fixed, got an Oops error at startup and got this in details.

EDIT2: Back on build 702 and no issues so far. Strange, I thought a stable release had to be... 'stable'

Thanks for confirming this! :) It was explicitly fixed in Dopamine build 694. See change log item:


- [Fixed] Bluetooth headset play/pause button not detected

 

I open sourced Dopamine a while ago, and someone else fixed the bug for me. Good thing, because I didn't know where to start and also don't have a Bluetooth headset to test with.

Oh shoot, didn't see that. Plus this issue of going back to the stable release is there, got the OOPS screen again with build 660:/

What do you mean? You installed build 700, and then reverted to build 660? If yes, the Oops screen is expected. Build 660 is not compatible with the database of recent builds.

You'll have to delete the %appdata%\Dopamine folder if you want to use build 660 again.

Another build was released: 1.1 build 704 Preview

 

Build releases are following each other rather quickly. I'm ironing out bugs fast for the 1.1 release (getting close).

 

This is the changelog:

 

– [Changed] Removed search field on Cloud screen
– [Fixed] Equalizer manual preset values incorrectly saved, causing audio engine crash.

I'll need your help. Could you try out build 708, to check if your headset still works fine with it? You can get that build here

The headset fix broke media keys for other users, and I now attempted to fix it for everyone (or at least for as much people as possible).

Thanks! I got confirmation from a second headset user, and also from someone where keyboard media keys were broken. Everything seems to work.

Another build was just released: 1.1 build 709 preview

 

This is the change log:

 

– [Changed] Adjusted built-in equalizer presets so their effect on the audio is more noticeable

Hi all,

 

Version 1.1 final is almost ready. That means that development on 1.2 will start soon. In 1.2 I'd like to add scrobbling, as it is a much demanded feature. I have no experience with scrobbling, so I'll need some input here.

Do you have examples of how scrobbling should work and which scrobbling features are a must-have?

 

Thanks!

Sorry, i don't use scrobbling, can't help on this one, used to scrobble long time ago with foobar2000 and last.fm.

I have a request, maybe it is already asked : it is possible to add support for DSD files ?

 

Thank you!

Nice work on 1.1. :)

 

This seems like a good time to re-request a feature - a fixed playback device setting. I'd use Dopamine a lot more often if I didn't have to manually change my output device to speakers, then back to headphones, every time I use it.

Thanks!

 

Could you explain a bit more how you use audio players? I can provide a list of available audio devices, but you'll still have to switch the device manually when changing from speakers to headphones.

My setup is as follows; I have my onboard Realtek sound system set to treat my headphone and speaker jacks as separate audio devices. Windows is set to use "Headphones" as the default device, which leaves a 2nd "Speakers" device spare. Most of my listening is done through the headphones (e.g. YouTube, games) which requires no further setup as they are the default device. When I use foobar2000 to play music, it is set to output to the secondary "Speakers" device so that music comes through the speakers instead.

 

Basically, it's all just a way to automate having music play through the speakers, and everything else through the headphones. This way, I hardly ever need to change the default output device, a current exception being Dopamine for example.

OK thanks. That's what I wanted to know. If I give you a list of audio devices in Dopamine, you'll be able to do this.

    • I don't hate the new menus, I am not a fan of the lack of features and how they went live when they clearly are not complete. The menu itself presents much better than the previous - but what's lacking (IMO) is: 1) Any kind of automated manipulation such as: "this goes on the new menu because you use this feature more often on this filetype" "this is rarely used and will fall back to the old menu" 2) Any kind of user manipulation such as: "a UI to add/remove/order items to the new menu"
    • The biggest issue in this version of Win 11 context menu, from usability standpoint, is the movable row with basic commands. Think of a car analogy...if You turn the week left the infotainment screen will move right and vice versa. With how it works now Microsoft made something forbidden in designing in any UI, software or hardware. I can't grasp who were the morons within Microsoft suggesting it was a good idea and gave it a green light.
    • LibreOffice 26.2.4 by Razvan Serea LibreOffice is the free power-packed Open Source personal productivity suite for Windows, Macintosh and Linux, that gives you six feature-rich applications for all your document production and data processing needs: Writer, Calc, Impress, Draw, Math and Base. Support and documentation is free from our large, dedicated community of users, contributors and developers. You, too, can also get involved! Choosing Between LibreOffice Still and LibreOffice Fresh: LibreOffice Still is a good choice if you value stability, a longer support cycle, and a more conservative approach to software updates. It's suitable for businesses and organizations where reliability and compatibility are crucial. LibreOffice Fresh is ideal if you're an enthusiast or an early adopter who wants to stay on the cutting edge of LibreOffice development and is willing to accept more frequent updates and occasional minor issues. Features: Writer is the word processor inside LibreOffice. Use it for everything, from dashing off a quick letter to producing an entire book with tables of contents, embedded illustrations, bibliographies and diagrams. The while-you-type auto-completion, auto-formatting and automatic spelling checking make difficult tasks easy (but are easy to disable if you prefer). Writer is powerful enough to tackle desktop publishing tasks such as creating multi-column newsletters and brochures. The only limit is your imagination. Calc tames your numbers and helps with difficult decisions when you're weighing the alternatives. Analyze your data with Calc and then use it to present your final output. Charts and analysis tools help bring transparency to your conclusions. A fully-integrated help system makes easier work of entering complex formulas. Add data from external databases such as SQL or Oracle, then sort and filter them to produce statistical analyses. Use the graphing functions to display large number of 2D and 3D graphics from 13 categories, including line, area, bar, pie, X-Y, and net - with the dozens of variations available, you're sure to find one that suits your project. Impress is the fastest and easiest way to create effective multimedia presentations. Stunning animation and sensational special effects help you convince your audience. Create presentations that look even more professional than the standard presentations you commonly see at work. Get your collegues' and bosses' attention by creating something a little bit different. Draw lets you build diagrams and sketches from scratch. A picture is worth a thousand words, so why not try something simple with box and line diagrams? Or else go further and easily build dynamic 3D illustrations and special effects. It's as simple or as powerful as you want it to be. Base is the database front-end of the LibreOffice suite. With Base, you can seamlessly integrate into your existing database structures. Based on imported and linked tables and queries from MySQL, PostgreSQL or Microsoft Access and many other data sources, you can build powerful databases containing forms, reports, views and queries. Full integration is possible with the in-built HSQL database. Math is a simple equation editor that lets you lay-out and display your mathematical, chemical, electrical or scientific equations quickly in standard written notation. Even the most-complex calculations can be understandable when displayed correctly. E=mc2. LibreOffice also comes configured with a PDF file creator, meaning you can distribute documents that you're sure can be opened and read by users of almost any computing device or operating system.

    • Amazon eero Pro 6E mesh Wi-Fi system 2-pack is 27% off by Ivan Jenic The Amazon eero Pro 6E mesh Wi-Fi system is currently $239.99 on Amazon for the 2-pack, down from $329.99.

The 2-pack covers up to 4,000 square feet (372 square meters) and supports 100+ connected devices, which handles the vast majority of home setups without breaking a sweat. Wi-Fi 6E brings access to the 6 GHz band for lower latency across the network, and the 2.5 Gb Ethernet port supports gigabit+ internet plans if your ISP offers them. eero's TrueMesh technology handles traffic routing automatically, so you're not manually managing which devices connect to which node. You set up the entire thing through the eero app, and the entire process takes a few minutes. The system also receives automatic security updates in the background, so once you set it up, you don't have to worry about compatibility issues. If you're covering a larger home or want more nodes, the 3-pack is $329.99 and the 4-pack is $479.98, both at similar discount levels. It's worth mentioning that a newer model exists, which is likely the reason for the discount, but the Pro 6E is still perfectly capable hardware for most homes.
