Coreguy Posted February 8, 2006 Share Posted February 8, 2006 funny app it recognizes some of my VBR mp3 as 0:00 in length. but for it's only a preview,all bugs are forgivable I'll stick to iTunes still.

moglenstar Posted February 8, 2006 Share Posted February 8, 2006 yes it is very buggy.. pause function doesn't work, and the ui is a bit rough, even the "alternate skin" .. it could turn into something nice though..

NienorGT Posted February 8, 2006 Share Posted February 8, 2006 I look foward of this... If the main site can come back :pinch: I tested it, and ofcourse it's BUGGY, but look like a decent alternative to the today's market monsters like iTune...

ToneKnee Posted February 8, 2006 Share Posted February 8, 2006 Buggy? Damn right it is! haha! Took 15 minutes to add 60 Albums to the Library, Takes a few seconds to switch to Mini Player mode, took up 60MB's while i was playing a few songs. Apart from the bugs, it is a good alternative from iTunes! :) Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/430191-songbird-01-released/#findComment-587171940 Share on other sites More sharing options...

+M2Ys4U Subscriber¹ Posted February 8, 2006 Subscriber¹ Share Posted February 8, 2006 It's open-source. And damn, it is buggy. Meh, it's 0.1 guess it's to be expected.

CoolCatBad Posted February 9, 2006 Share Posted February 9, 2006 Just a proof-of-concept release, but runs quite well. Has a Profile structure similar to Mozilla, in the same Application Data directory, called Pioneers of the Inevitable. The player uses the VLC engine, which you can find in the Program Files/Songbird/xulrunner folder.
