When you run multiple files that are not in the collection, the load begins to go high. This was the case in previous versions as well. For example, if I run 14 files twice and cpu slowly starts to go high , it is as if the processor is overloaded. And it's not. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

After a while I open more 14 in the same way and it starts to feel slowing down. It's like overloading the processor. But this is not true. I must restart the player.

Darrian 263 Posted October 3, 2019 With the Galaxy Book S and the Surface Pro X on the horizon, are there plans to compile this for ARM, or will it already run natively on ARM without using the 32-bit emulation? 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It will have to be compiled for ARM. I'll have to do some research. At this point, I have no idea if compiling for ARM is even possible.

+Raphaël G. 3,066 Posted October 9, 2019 Hey everyone, Dopamine 2.0 Preview 14 has just been released. Feature-wise, nothing has changed. I did fix a bug and reverted to a lighter version of the audio engine. This is done in an attempt to resolve a high CPU usage bug which plagues some users. Lets see if this helps. This is the change log: - [Fixed] Folders screen doesn't respect order of songs in the folder - [Changed] Removed FFmpeg decoder Download: https://www.digimezzo.com/content/software/dopamine/ Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Would love to use Dopamine on a Windows 10 on ARM laptop if I get one sometime in the future (probably won't be for a few years; waiting for the desktop grade snapdragon chips to mature a little more; the 8cx chip is a large step in the right direction ) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

That would be good news for Dopamine 3.0. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Darrian 263 Posted October 9, 2019 If it's not possible now, I know it will be, but I'm pretty sure it's already available as an option. There's little point worrying about it today, because neither devices are available today, and owners of older, less powerful ARM on Windows devices aren't clamoring for Dopamine (afaik). However, November 5 isn't too far off. I wouldn't expect you to have it ready on day one, but if you could consider compiling for ARM in the future that would be awesome. In the meantime, it should be able to (hypothetically) run the x86 version, emulated, assuming you're not compiling 64-bit only at this point. I really want a Surface Pro X, and I'll probably get one, but I don't expect you to compile for ARM just to make one user happy. I'm also super-excited about the Linux release.

Darrian 263 Posted October 12, 2019 I missed the part about DLLs, though. I didn't realize they were architecture-specific. If it turns out to be too much work, I'm sure running the x86 version will be acceptable. I'm just concerned about performance, but it's just a music player, not a AAA $80 video game.

It's a real pity that, even following these instructions, I cannot reproduce this issue here. I currently have no idea what is going on. Even the code which is executed when performing these actions, is not doing anything CPU intensive. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

+Raphaël G. 3,066 Posted January 5 27 minutes ago, Neyht said: I cant setup media keys in logitech options anymore on beta 2 or 3. Beta 1 works fine. Could you enable the option "Enable default multimedia key support" and see if that helps? Some explanation concerning this new option: To my great joy, there are multiple mechanisms to control media keys in Windows (Why make it easy for developers...). On some computers, only mechanism 1 works, for others, only mechanism 2. Then, last but not least, are those for which both mechanisms are triggered when pressing media keys. Great fun. So, previous versions of Dopamine (until Beta 1) tried to be smart about this (to be compatible with everyone) and supported both mechanisms at once. For the people where both mechanisms work and both trigger media keys, there was a problem. Play and pause would negate each other. Next and previous would be triggered twice. So I had to split both mechanisms up and added the option "Enable default multimedia key support", which essentially toggles between both mechanisms. When this option is disabled, Dopamine listens to low level Windows media key presses. When enabled, Dopamine listens to appcommand media key presses, which are usually triggered by multimedia keyboards and headsets (e.g. Logitech). The name for this options comes from Winamp (I haven't invented it). Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I didn't think to look for an option in settings. One more thing though. There is a visual bug when playing though a smart playlist with shuffle enabled. It goes to the next song in the playlist, then (sometimes) briefly scrolls down to the bottom of the playlist for a split second, then goes back to the playing song. This doesn't effect playback at all, it's just a visual bug. It doesn't happen on a normal playlist. The playlist is a 162 song favorites playlist Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
