Insanekiwi and anyone else having problems with it freezing and getting errors try either/both of these:

Uncheck Fade image & Fade notifier in Options >> General

Uncheck Download cover automatically in Options >> Download

I'm using beta 9 build 56 doing both of the above, and am not having any more problems at all. Error 364 only happens when fading is enabled. I don't need the Amazon search much since I have covers for most of my music. Doing a Google Image search is actually better, anyway. Leave that enabled if you want to use the function, it might just be the fade effect that's freezing it up, combined with tags it doesn't like.

EDIT: I just realized Carlos already mentioned this briefly, I guess this is almost redundant...but hey, this is my 500th post on my one year anniversary of joining Neowin, w00t! :p

so you mean wcc might be crashed by a id3v2 tag? because my mp3s have either id3v1, id3v2 or sometimes both. i'll check and watch which songs might crash it.

Yes. There are some ID3v2 tags that can make WCC freeze. But I can adjust if I have the song with those tags... I have lot of songs with ID3v2 tags and all goes fine. It's probably a non standard ID3v2 frame that WCC can't handle.

Remember that you can manually download a cover too. Double click case or using right click context menu...

Congrats about your 500th post!

i've been getting this error a lot while switching songs to different artists/albums, and i'm using beta 10.. it happens and then it gets this little imprint of what i'm listening to up in the upper left corner of the screen and the only way to get it to go away is to quit wcc.. if this has already been reported and i'm ignorant, i apologize.

This is the error due to fade in/out.

I was able to reproduce if I switch the song before the fade in/out ends (during fade in/out).

You can disable fade in/out effect if you want (or wait for it to finish before switch the song). Just go to "Options>General".

    • Is your Apple Watch supported? Check the watchOS 27 compatibility list

      By JayZJay · Posted

      It would be surprising if even 3 year old Apple Watches (and not SE models at that) cannot run watchOS 27. Granted, it doesn't mean it would work as well. We'll see.
    • Apple launches new website for parents and a revamped Screen Time experience

      By Aditya Tiwari · Posted

      Apple launches new website for parents and a revamped Screen Time experience by Aditya Tiwari At WWDC 2026, Apple announced new parental control features for iOS 27, iPadOS 27, and macOS 27 to keep kids' device usage in check and keep them safe online. As a parent, you'll get access to a simpler setup experience, Ask to Browse, Time Allowances, and a redesigned Screen Time. You'll be able to pick exactly which apps your child can access on their device, choosing from just a few essential apps, a curated set, or the apps you feel are appropriate. There will be an option to gradually add more apps. Ask to Browse is a new feature that requires kids to request permission before visiting a new website in Safari on iPhone, iPad, or Mac. You can also turn on a setting that requires your kid to ask for approval before connecting with an unknown contact via Messages, FaceTime, or the Phone app. You can manage your child's screen time more effectively with Time Allowances that work across categories, including Games, Entertainment, and Social Media. You can set time limits based on your kid's age and get suggestions informed by expert research. Speaking of expert guidance, Apple added that it's working with the American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP) to adapt its Family Media Plan to create a guide parents can refer to when using Apple products. Moreover, the company has also set up a new dedicated website, where you can find tools, resources, and answers to common questions around parental controls and child safety. Apple also allows parents to set daily schedules to manage screen time, configuring access to different apps at different times of the day and across the week. Overall, the Screen Time section has been revamped and provides a bird's-eye view of your kid's average device usage and most-used apps. "For example, to help protect important family moments, parents can quickly limit access during meals, outdoor play, and other times that deserve full attention. If kids need a little extra time to finish something in an app, parents can also easily extend access," Apple said. Apart from these, Communication Safety has been updated to block gore or violent content when detected in shared images or videos. The feature already blurs nudity in Messages and FaceTime calls, and is enabled by default for users under 18.

      They already threw the Ultra 1st gen under the bus? It really feels like someone screwed up, and that advanced AI features will only be available on the list above but someone screwed up and said that Watch OS 27 in general will only be available for those models. I think they will pull it back. I did see someone also put a snap shot of their series 9 watch being offered the watch os 27 beta. As the backlash online is already in full swing.

      Right, Google... because that's who this is going to. Google, the company who's entire business model is geared around ad revenue and your personal data.
    • Bluesky COO warns social media regulations could destroy competition from small startups

      That is the natural course for regulations. First to protect the consumer. Then to protect the business/industry from upstart competition. There are countless examples across history.
