Bug Reports / Album art viewer can get "stuck" on secondary screen

« on: November 16, 2017, 03:22:00 PM »

The album art viewer (the window that opens when double tapping the thumbnail) seems to open in the position it was last closed, which unfortunately may cause the window to be invisible if it was last closed on a secondary display and then this monitor is removed.

Quite a minor bug, but I am usually affected by it more often than normal because I travel with my laptop and plug it to a external monitor when at home. I am using MusicBee v3.1.6512, Windows 10 x64.

Portable Devices / Lyrics aren't embedded with on-the-fly conversion

« on: October 09, 2017, 01:21:20 AM »

Hello!

I'm having an issue when using the "on-the-fly conversion" option in the synchronisation settings: the lyrics aren't saved into the files tags. It doesn't seem to matter which files types are converted to/from, or even the device type, as long as the on-the-fly conversion is used, the lyrics are lost.

Files sync'ed without the option, though, have their lyrics preserved. Worth noting as well that files converted using "Send to > Format Converter" keep their lyrics.

Questions / Shuffle like Google Play Music

« on: September 10, 2016, 07:22:49 AM »

Hi!

I was wondering if it is possible to have the shuffle function to work like it works on Google Play Music, where when you press the shuffle toggle the Now Playing list changes to reflect the new order? Right now the thing closest to it I can find is the Shuffle List option on Now Playing, but it seems to ignore the shuffle options like bias and album/grouping, and to revert to a ordered play the solution does not seem as elegant as just pressing the "main" button.

Also, the Play Library Shuffled seems to ignore those options as well and only shuffle albums, is this by design?

I'm using MusicBee v3.

Skins / [Sugestion] Add shadows when 'Skin Window Borders' is active

« on: February 06, 2012, 04:14:37 AM »

Yesterday I've updated MusicBee and the SteelAndBee skin came with it. As a beautiful yet original skin, finally I've changed my previous skin (Dark) after months using it as my MusicBee visual style. When using "Dark", I left the default Windows borders option on, but when changing to this new one, it seemed like the default skin borders were more imersive.

However, I've noticed a (very) little visual inconsistence with all the default skin borders: they don't have the Aero shadow around them. I know it may be a little tricky to enable, but looks it's feasible after all, as I've seen in aplications like iTunes or even Steam, and makes MusicBee even more integrated with Windows Vista/7 UI.


(From background to foreground: Default Windows 7 UI, Steam, MusicBee with SteelAndBee skin)

EDIT: I've found one more problem with the said option: there is no Windows 7 Snap gestures (throw window at desktop sides makes it fill half of screen, double click the horizontal borders expand window to the maximum desktop height, etc.).
