Bug Reports / Random autoplaylist doesnt random

« on: May 19, 2023, 11:31:44 PM »

Shortcut to start Musicbee w. random autoplaylist:

Code

"C:\Program Files (x86)\MusicBee\MusicBee.exe" /play /opencompactplayer "C:\Users\*********\Music\MusicBee\Playlists\Random 8 hours.xautopf"

The playlist: Random 8 hours.xautopf

Code

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<SmartPlaylist SaveStaticCopy="False" LiveUpdating="True" Layout="0" LayoutGroupBy="0" ShuffleMode="Random" ShuffleSameArtistWeight="0,5" GroupBy="track" ConsolidateAlbums="False" MusicLibraryPath="C:\Users\*********\Music\MusicBee\">
  <Source Type="1">
    <Description />
    <Conditions CombineMethod="All">
      <Condition Field="ArtistPeople" Comparison="StartsWith" Value="" />
      <Condition Field="FileDuration" Comparison="GreaterThan" Value="1" />
    </Conditions>
    <Limit FilterDuplicates="False" Enabled="True" Count="8" Type="Hours" SelectedBy="Random" />
  </Source>
</SmartPlaylist>

Problem is random isn't random at all, not all times; but 90% starts with the default auto-playlist order when creating a new one.

Choosing the auto-playlist inside the program works fine and shuffles as expected. Problem is starting from the command line or with parameters via shortcut.

Hope that I am clear with this.

Thanks!

Edit: I'm using MB 3.5.8447

Bug Reports / Playing Tracks element and artwork on Compact player

« on: November 09, 2022, 08:06:05 PM »

Hello!



On Compact Player, using PLAYING TRACKS layout, if i enable "track information" element, the playing tracks element appears but minimized. No matter how i resize, it backs to minimized every time I switch between main player to compact player or restart the program. Disabling the "track information" element, playing tracks looks fine, even remembers the height.



This is my Track Information setup. Choosed "show artwork below fields" but on compact player it keeps the artwork to the left. Main player works fine.



Downgraded to 3.5.8249 and no luck.

Thanks!

MusicBee Wishlist / Pin compact player to the desktop

« on: October 19, 2018, 03:09:54 AM »

Really love the borderless and auto-pick panel colors of the compact player!

Could be an option to 'pin to desktop' like Rainmeter to keep that beautiful player permanently displayed even pressing WIN-M or WIN-D?

Thanks.

TheaterMode / multiLine element height

« on: November 27, 2014, 06:34:11 AM »

Hi
I just want to put a multiline at the bottom of the panel with a field which sometimes just one line of text and sometimes 10 lines of text. So, I can't figure how put it with a 'reverse' -y cause the required height property.

<element type="Field" name="extra" id="Comment" yAnchor="Panel.bottom" x="16" y="-140" font="Segoe UI" widthDock="Panel" style="Regular" multiLine="true" height="140" size="9" fg="205,205,205"></element>





How can I do it?  

Thanks.

Questions / Search issue with multiple words

« on: May 02, 2014, 11:29:37 AM »

That's it. I was updated my not-so-old-version and I found the search doesnt work anymore like before when using multiple words. Default search for space char seems to be OR (rolling stones > show items containing rolling OR stones) and not AND (rolling stones >show all rolling stones items) like before

Will need to use wildcards from now?

MusicBee Wishlist / Locate in Windows Explorer

« on: November 24, 2010, 05:12:10 AM »

It is any way to customize the "Locate in Windows Explorer" command to launch an external program and pass the directory name as parameter? Would be useful for use on other file explorers, like Total Commander, in my case.
