Purple Haze Posted May 28, 2005 Share Posted May 28, 2005 Is it the notifier? Otherwise I have no clue. :huh: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rbet Posted May 28, 2005 Share Posted May 28, 2005 yeah it is the notifier... how do I fix it? edit: got it... somehow the default file sizes were 875 and 625! :laugh: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Carlos11 Posted May 28, 2005 Share Posted May 28, 2005 Really big fonts!! But, the default ones are 8,75 and 6,25. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Carlos11 Posted May 28, 2005 Share Posted May 28, 2005 If everything goes fine WCC beta 6 will be officially (*) released next week! (*) with full setup installer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rbet Posted May 28, 2005 Share Posted May 28, 2005 yeah, font sizes. Well, everything's peach now! :happy: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Carlos11 Posted May 28, 2005 Share Posted May 28, 2005 By the way, how the font issue happened? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rbet Posted May 28, 2005 Share Posted May 28, 2005 I have no idea... when I try to set the font to the default sizes you mentioned, it gives me a dialog box saying 'Font size must be a number'. I think that explains it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Carlos11 Posted May 28, 2005 Share Posted May 28, 2005 Sorry, I was not clear. The default size fot title is 8 and for artist is 7. However, in the settings.ini you will not see 8 and 7 (the system interface values) but 8,75 and 6,25 (the system internal values). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rbet Posted May 29, 2005 Share Posted May 29, 2005 (edited) OK here is something I noticed when using it... for Ogg Vorbis files, see the following example of a song. Title: Synergy - Hello Strings Artist: Armin van Buuren Album: Universal Religion 2004 (Armada at Ibiza) In the notifier, the title should appear as shown above, but all I can see is Synergy (it seems to ignore everything after 'Synergy') Hope you can fix it! ;) Edited May 29, 2005 by rbet Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Carlos11 Posted May 29, 2005 Share Posted May 29, 2005 rbet, I've uploaded a new build that has a workaround to deal with this kind of title (with "-") and Ogg Vorbis files (WCC reads tags directly from mp3 so the "-" is not an issue anymore). The upcoming beta 7 will probably read Ogg Vorbis tags directly too. Please, try it: http://www.closetosoftware.com/wcctheme2.zip Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Church Posted May 29, 2005 Share Posted May 29, 2005 Hey Carlos. I have beta 5 installed with the 6 as well (copying exe files) but for some reason the cover doesnt automatically update. I always have to double click in order for the cover to update. If it dont click it it'll just show the "escape is my reality" cover.Here's a screenshot to show you the problem. before i double click after i double click Also, in my main music folder (where winamp plays from) I dont see a folder for my covers.

Carlos11 Posted May 29, 2005 Share Posted May 29, 2005 It seems that you have one folder with a lot of songs. Anyway, try to change the "Read cover" setting. Go to "Options>Read cover" then: 1) remove any setting from the right list 2) select "Artist - Album.jpg" from the left list then press "Add>" button 3) select "Any image" from the left list then press "Add>" button If you use ID3v2 tags to store covers add "ID3v2 tag" too. Now you can download covers and they will be saved following the same pattern of "Read cover" ("Artist - Album.jpg"). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Church Posted May 29, 2005 Share Posted May 29, 2005 Thank you very much Carlos. That got it to work. Initially I have to double click it, but after that every time I play the song it just pops right up.Thanks again! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rogue` Posted May 29, 2005 Share Posted May 29, 2005 Only 1 of the skins seems to work for me....I get this error after I click apply (chooseing Aero, Case or Milk): Error occured: 380Description: Invalid property value Module: frmBack Function: Form_Load Happens with Foobar and Winamp. But the skin Glow doesnt do that and displays the Album text properly... (I installed Beta5 and then used the updated files from the .zip u have given) :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rbet Posted May 29, 2005 Share Posted May 29, 2005 (edited) I can confirm Rogue's experience; I am getting the same error on startup. Using beta 7 of WCC and Winamp v5.092... EDIT: I found that in Skin Manager>Text, the 'Reduce Size By' Field was by default at 33333 pixels... I reduced it to 33 pixels and I no longer get the error (using the Case skin). And, the hyphen problem is gone! :D Edited May 29, 2005 by rbet Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rogue` Posted May 29, 2005 Share Posted May 29, 2005 I want a port to foobar :( :o :yes: 585952314[/snapback] It works with Foobar2000 (0.8.3 not the beta), but u need the winamp spam component (Winamp API Emulator or somat). Works fine here anyway :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sane404 Posted May 29, 2005 Share Posted May 29, 2005 Anyone know if there's anything like this for WMP? I'd use Winamp, but I want to play my Music surround sound which WMP supports. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Carlos11 Posted May 29, 2005 Share Posted May 29, 2005 rbet and Rogue, Due to your great feedback I was able to track the bug. WCC internal converter (from twip to pixels) was not considering values with comma (e.g. 33,33). Now it read them properly and you can freely use such values to make fine adjustments. Thank you very much! You can download the new build here (as always): http://www.closetosoftware.com/wcctheme2.zip Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have some users asking for it and maybe your solution can help them. Thank you in advance! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rogue` Posted May 29, 2005 Share Posted May 29, 2005 Rogue,Can you explain how to use Winamp CD Case and foobar? I have some users asking for it and maybe your solution can help them. Thank you in advance! 585985965[/snapback] Sure, all they need to do is download this and extract it into Foobar2000/components/ and then restart Foobar. It then creates a process called Winamp.exe and all the info about songs go to that, and this program and many others use that info :) I got it from using a mIRC script, but ive found it works well with allot of other programs :) (u can also configure its output via the components window in preferences in foobar) Hope that helps :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
