Hi,

 

Is there a size limit for Dopamine?
A number of songs not to be exceeded?
When I do a tag modification through the software, I have the following error:

 

2021-02-05 14:02:48.463|Info|App.xaml.ExecuteEmergencyStop|558|### FORCED STOP of Dopamine, version 2.0.5.4000 ###

System.NullReferenceException: La référence d'objet n'est pas définie à une instance d'un objet.
   à Dopamine.App.ExecuteEmergencyStop(Exception ex)

.../...

 

Tell me how to send you the logs.

 

Best Regards

Hi,

 

I've been using Dopamine for a few weeks now and I love the simplicity and the design.

It just hits all the right marks for me.

 

I was just wondering, is it possible to display the comments of an mp3 file on the music player, as I often edit those sections in order to keep track of my music.

 

If not, that's fine as well.

 

Cheers,

Evan

Hey there, I'm back. 

I've been having a bit of trouble with controlling Dopamine using my headphones. They have a touch gesture on them that lets me pause/play and skip to the song forward/backward. These actions haven't been working with Dopamine. I could swear that they were working when I used Dopamine like a month ago but now they are not working. The headphone controls are working with YouTube and even groove music so it probably isn't the headphone's fault. I have enabled external control in Dopamine settings but it hasn't changed anything. Any ideas?

THere is no limit to the number of songs that Dopamine can play. If this issue is still relevant, you can send the logs to [email protected]

Hello,

Thank you for liking Dopamine. No, it is not possible to display comments. Could you tell me in which way you would like to see comments?

Hi!

 

I'm just trying Dopamine for the first few songs. I notice that when playing (in shuffle mode) there is a small fade-in when I skip to the next song. This kind of triggers me :s.

I searched the settings but I can't find anything related to turn it off.

 

Is this correct?

I'm not aware of any fade in. Does it always happen?

Hi

It's me again. I really like this app. This has been my daily driver app for a couple months.

 

I just want to ask that is it possible to display .lrc files? I have downloaded most of my songs with .lrc files which made song to display some karaoke-ish style to sing along the song.

LRC files should be used automatically, as long as they are in the same directory as their audio file, and that the file name is the same as the audio file. Example:

 

amazing song.mp3

amazing song.lrc

Are we expecting Verisia 3 soon? 

Version 3 previews are available since June. We're at preview 3 currently. I release, at least, 1 preview per month. Version 3 is a complete rewrite that adds Linux support. So there is still a lot of work to get feature parity with version 2. But it's already a basic usable player. Previews can be found on the Dopamine 3 GitHub page: https://github.com/digimezzo/dopamine/releases

 

Please not that preview 3 requires you to install preview 2 first (due to a bug that causes a crash after a clean install of preview 3). That will be solved in Preview 4.

Any news on when the next Preview will be released?
Thanks buddy, and keep up the awesome work as always 😀

Omg, I'm so sorry for not replying any sooner. Thanks for your patience. I'll try to be better at this. AS for the delay, for the last preview op Dopamine 3, I wanted to add the playlists feature. It's quite monstrous, as it requires a lot of new logic to be written. It made no sense to release a preview with a half-implemented feature (you'd see no difference). So this took a lot of time. There was also another project that came in between, which stalled Dopamine development for a few weeks. Dopamine 3 Preview 8 was released yesterday, and has basic playlists support. I still need to add drag and drop and smart playlists capabilities. But the basic architecture is done, so adding those extra's won't take as much time. Other features, like rating queuing,... are smaller (code-wise). So I'll be able to release previews much faster again.

No worries, Raphael. I think I read something you wrote about it someplace else. Perhaps on Github?
Anyway, thank you for the heads up and stay well 😄

Excelent work , Raphael! Now I revisited again the github and found that there is a linux version too ;) WOW! Awesome work. It runs flawless.

Thanks you for your hard work on this app.

Oh dear, I did it again. I'm so sorry for the late reply. Thank you for enjoying Dopamine! Indeed, Version 3 runs on Windows, Linux, and Mac too! :) There is still a lot of work to get feature-parity with Dopamine 2, but it's already pretty cool. Dopamine 3 is labeled as "Preview" until all or most Dopamine 2 features have been added. I hope the label doesn't scare users too much, because it's really as stable as Dopamine 2.

Hello! On version 2.0.9 of the cover player, there is a lag in the window movement when a playlist is open.  If I close the playlist there is no problem.

Hi Raphael,

Loving the player as always, now using it on my Linux box!

Quick question, does Dopamine 3 support updating through the app, or do I have to download the latest .appimage on each release?

Thanks! :)

Thanks for loving it! For now, you'll have to download the appimage manually. The app will notify you that a new version is available. A download link will be provided in the update notification.

Last.fm scrobbling makes this finally become an interesting alternative for many people. I'm currently planning to (finally) replace AIMP by something with a cleaner UI.  I'll give it a spin tomorrow.

Thanks! Let me know if you have remarks. Please note that Dopamine 3 is not feature complete yet. I've listed the features that are planned for the 3.0 final release: https://github.com/digimezzo/dopamine/issues/323

    • Microsoft launches Godot Sample to streamline Xbox PC game development on the engine

      By LoneWolfSL · Posted

      Microsoft launches Godot Sample to streamline Xbox PC game development on the engine by Pulasthi Ariyasinghe Microsoft today announced a new endeavor that aims to make it simpler for Godot developers to get their products into the Xbox PC ecosystem. Dubbed the "XBOX Godot Sample," this is a new public reference for developers using the open-source engine. This is set to serve as an example of how Microsoft GDK, Xbox Services, and PlayFab can be integrated into their projects. The sample is available now on GitHub as a working example. This covers key features in gaming projects that developers may need to release their projects on Xbox PC, with everything from matchmaking and game sign-in to gamepad compatibility with Godot being covered. This release is being called the first step in giving Godot developers the tools to bring their games over to Xbox PC, with more changes to come based on feedback and issue reports. However, the company was clear that this is not related to bringing Godot projects to Xbox consoles. The engine's open development model stops it from accessing console SDKs due to the requirement of NDAs and legal contracts. Here's how it explained this Godot sample project's focus: This is a source-only sample, not a product. It's MIT-licensed at the wrapper layer; the GDK and PlayFab dependencies still require their own installs and license acceptance, consistent with our other XBOX samples. There is no set update cadence for support or maintenance. We’ll watch the repo, monitor issues, and iterate where it makes sense, but this isn't a commercial release. That said, we’re excited to hear your feedback and see any community PRs, as we evolve this together. This is the first step in bringing Godot for XBOX on PC. We plan to evolve it over time based on what the community tells us is most valuable. This sample is built specifically for XBOX on PC. It doesn’t include support for XBOX Series X|S or XBOX One. If you’re already building for XBOX Series X|S or XBOX One, please talk with your XBOX representative. If not, you can get started by signing up here. Game developers can find the XBOX Godot Sample by heading to GitHub over here. Documentation on how to get started with Godot for building an Xbox PC project can be seen here.

      I don't understand the vision. Do people really want to buy a new computer from Dell with 6 browsers installed? We all keep asking for Microsoft to stop having so much junk on their OS, and adding a bunch of browsers seems to go against that. Ideally, we would just be asked what browser we want during OOBE but Google is just going to pay Dell a bunch of money to include Chrome. Additionally, would you want your phones to start including all the browsers too when you get them? The only thing I ever wanted was to be able to uninstall IE or edge and I believe you are now able to. I do agree that microsoft needs to chill with their "are you sure you don't want to try edge before you install chrome" ads when going to download chrome.

      It is notable that around 70% of web browser users choose Google Chrome. However, it is puzzling why anyone on Windows would opt for Chrome when Microsoft Edge is often superior in many aspects and comes pre-installed. Edge collects less data, uses less RAM, and is more optimized for Windows as a native Microsoft product. While some may point to bloat in Edge, much of it can be removed with simple tools, requiring no more effort than installing Chrome. Meanwhile, Chrome reportedly downloads large amounts of AI data (4 GB) without explicit consent. I'm sure you Chrome users love that, or? Here is one example of a tool that doesn't even need to be installed to be able to use: https://github.com/TheBobPony/MSEdgeTweaker Although Microsoft’s aggressive promotion of Edge may be questionable, the browser’s current advantages make it a preferable choice over Chrome today, even if Chrome may have been better in the past.
    • JetBrains rolls out IntelliJ IDEA update with Markdown preview fixes and more

      By David Uzondu · Posted

      JetBrains rolls out IntelliJ IDEA update with Markdown preview fixes and more by David Uzondu Image via JetBrains IntelliJ 2026.1.3 from JetBrains has landed, bringing several highly requested bug fixes that target common UI glitches and terminal rendering issues. If you run tmux inside the integrated terminal, the IDE no longer renders the cursor above the active line. The Markdown preview bug, which was fixed in this release, had annoyed developers for quite some time, as the preview pane failed to render images saved outside the project directory. Instead of displaying the actual image, the IDE simply showed a broken image icon, a problem that stuck around for two years before this update. Over on Windows, developers running WSL can now use wsl.exe to spin up their environments without losing terminal functionality. In previous builds, launching a terminal shell with something like wsl.exe -d ubuntu inside a Windows-based project broke both shell integration and active process detection. Other bug fixes in this release include: An issue where Gradle sync incorrectly reported success as a failure on WSL when using Gradle 9.5.0. A syntax highlighting bug that flagged valid Java for-loop initialization blocks with multiple statements as incorrect. A warning bug that triggered a false non-null local variable alert when using JSpecify annotations. A database generation bug that hid the option to use a DELETE statement instead of a TRUNCATE checkbox. A Kotlin highlighting failure where an assertion error in the Gradle redundant library inspection broke error highlighting. A UI bug where the ComboBox popup lacked a maximum height restriction. A Snowflake syntax error where DataGrip failed to support the "create temp" command. A Svelte syntax parsing failure that incorrectly flagged quotes inside inline expressions. A VCS repository manager deadlock that triggered thread pool exhaustion. A memory leak where the LazyTree component kept all previous versions of a tree in memory. IntelliJ 2026.1.3 is the third bug fix release for the IntelliJ 2026.1 series. The first one landed back in April with a fix for the WSL Python interpreter freeze, another fix for guest participants using Emmet abbreviations, and corrected WildFly server deployment errors.
