MusicLibrary2 - Version 2.1

[LilY0da]

Na, I can wait till you test it... I'm not that desperate
You'll have to let me know what you changed in the skin, so that I can update the file for ContourHC

[psycik]

Yeah i've put a seperate section in the change log with what has been modified in the skin. Nothing great.

I'll test it over the weekend, then it's probably ready to go.

I keep getting this error in config.exe....is this fixed in a revised release? I can't get into wiki to grab and check:

Yeah I know what that was, it's to receive event notifications. And yes I thought I'd resolved that in the 3.2 version which should be on the wiki.

It doesn't cause any problems, but if you like nice clean logs.....

Just downloaded this plugin.
Extreamly nice GUI...really like it,
Setup and scan of music directory worked fine, but...
It takes a very long time to start. A minute or so and the when its started it keeps on working on the disk for minutes. Should it be like this?
I have around 30GB music files.

[psycik]

My one takes about 3-5 seconds to start. That's on about 13 Gb. All local disk.

I think I check if files exist, and maybe even re-read the tags.

Might be something I should look at getting rid of.....people seem to have MUCH bigger collections than I do

I just made sure I had 3.2, but still there. But it only seems to happen on load, so that's fine. I thought it kept happening (the initial 2-3 times it loops on open threw me).

[psycik]

Yes it was the starting 2 or 3 times that I fixed. It's still to do with Notifications. I think it's because I don't have an empty constructor which the EventNotifications seem to be using.

[capone]

I thought it was because the path looked off. No worries.

I know this one is outside your plugin, but any idea why visualizations would not work? I mean in WMP...I noticed they didn't work in ML2, so I checked WMP, and they are on, but don't display.

[psycik]

Do they work in Sub's music library?? I had coded for them, and had a space for them. Should be bottom left when viewing the library, and a larger one when in the play list screen (and playing something)

You know you have to switch it from album art to visualisations?? It's in the menu (accessible from the Home key).

If you didn't know, it's another reason for me to take tkgafs suggestion to put an indicator on the screen about the home menu.
