No. It's not ready for the world yet. That's why I have to rollback to code which doesn't contain resizable panes to provide your fix.

You're the best! Have you received the FR translation file i sent you ?

I published build 627 which should fix your issue (it fixes it on my computer :) (that's a classic)): http://www.digimezzo.com/content/software/dopamine/previews/

Let me know how things go. I'll wait before making a public announcement.

Yeah it really fixes the issue! very nice fix, it has never been this fast!

Thank You!

 

Edit: Dopamine freezes when i change track very fast.

Thanks. That's an older problem. I plan to handle it is a audio engine update very soon.

Is it just me or the whole "Now Playing" section has vanished into thin air with build 627?

 

By the way, I need to check the Spanish translation and update it where necessary.

 

PS: Sorry for the absence throught the last couple of weeks, but I had no PC at all for over a month :(

My motivations to change it:

 

- I needed room for the cloud menu item

- I thought it was kind of out of place in the menu above as it is a different screen that the others in that menu

- The mini players also have a "hamburger" menu to show the now playing list

 

But still, these are previews, so further modifications will probably happen.

No problem. The other guys kept me busy :rofl:.

 

Resizable panes are coming along well. Bad news though. Next week I'm on business trip and that usually means next to no programming :(. So the next build will not be next week. I'll release a new build once resizable panes is stable. And after that, I dive into the world of the audio engine. Because I feel it could use quite some improvements.

clicking in the player box to take you to now playing is the best idea I have heard so far =)  Although it looks like there is still plenty of room for Now Playing at the top...

Not on the minimal allowed window size. And I'm not doing any sizing or scaling in that menu, it's rather dumb :) (maybe something for later). And some languages have incredibly long texts for Artists, Albums,...  :)

on the audio front, would it be easy enough for it to somehow show the sound mapper, or choose outputs via whats available via windows settings? 

 

for example, say in playback devices you have 3 sound output options, e.g Main speakers via sound card, possibly HDMI output and USB headphones.

Each one can be a separate playback device in windows, and technically each one could be an output for Dopamine, as long as it just talks directly to say "sound mapper", no point redesigning something windows does anyways. 

 

Ive started using it at work for music while i work via my external drive, so many of my end users have asked me wtf is this dopamine! :D its getting a lot of positive noise. 

 

You deffo have a winner here Raph, but we all know this allready :)

all dopamine has to do is check every heartbeat which sound device is 'default' and switch to whatever device is default if that changes, shouldn't be too hard to implement as every other sound program I use does this automatically.

Thank you for the heads up, guys!

 

Raphaël, I've been reading the latest messages and you're quite right when stating you've been busy. Anyway, I'll try to check the Spanish translation today and see what's missing :yes:

Actually, it's not because others do it, that it is easy to implement :) Otherwise it would be there already. I added polling of the audio device (I listened to a "DeviceChanged" event from windows). What happened when changing the default device, the DeviceChanged event fired multiple times instead of just once, each time passing through another device id. So I had to filter out the correct device id, track if the default device was already passed through and so a next change is not needed anymore. Once I got that figured out, I had to notify the Dopamine audio engine to remember the current track and its position in the track, then stop playing, then start playing the same track on the new default device and then skipping to the correct position. This is the only way to transparently swich to the new audio device. It failed at step 1: stop playback. It seemed to stop during the switching of the audio devices, which is too soon and crashed because of that. So I had to introduce a manual delay. That worked better, but not always. Then I decided to delay this feature for later as it was starting to take a lot of time. I have other work to do on the audio engine (an almost a complete rewrite of playback logic), so I'll take this task back up when starting that work.

 

This is what I'd like to achieve:

 

1. Have a listbox containing a list of the available audio devices and allow the user to choose on which device to play

2. If the default device is chosen, Dopamine should try to continue playing on the default device, even if it changes

3. As soon as the chosen non-default device disappears, Dopamine should continue playing on the default audio device

 

This will cost at least a few full delays of development work. Split over the time I have available for Dopamine each day (2 hours per night if I stretch it), you can imagine it will require some time to get right.

Thank you for the heads up, guys!

 

Raphaël, I've been reading the latest messages and you're quite right when stating you've been busy. Anyway, I'll try to check the Spanish translation today and see what's missing :yes:

Thanks for checking the translation :) I'm looking forward to it.

Just got build 627 and not sure if me or others have this same issue, but when a song is playing it will stutter when I'm selecting different artists in the artists tab.  I have the albums setup as by year and it seems to stutter during a selection of a artist (doesn't seem like it depends on number of albums or songs as I see it for 1 versus 10 albums).

Same here, the album display process is very slow now as it didn't use to be and it makes the music stutter when browsing the albums list =(

Can't confirm. Super fast here.

Same here. But then again, I don't have a precisely slow computer either, so it may not be the best measure reference point, I guess.

I have almost 15, 000 songs.  It seems like it doesn't matter how fast I click a new artist.  If I wait a bit then click or just click between them fast, every so often a stutter happens.
