Bug Reports / Wrong Art displayed in Mini Player

« on: January 07, 2017, 05:30:59 AM »

When using MusicBee in full window mode, one pane labelled "Track Information" has an image that swaps between Album Cover and in my instance, Artist; being the two images embedded in each mp3 file.

If I switch to Mini Player when Track Information is displaying the 2nd image in the mp3, Artist in my case, then it is that 2nd image that is displayed in the Mini Player.

I would have expected the Mini Player to only display the 1st image in the media file, usually Album Cover, as the image in the Mini Player does not switch at interval.

Many times, I would start an album playing and then switch to Mini Player; and this aspect of displaying the 2nd image would not occur or be noticed.

Also, the image displayed switches to the 1st image when the next track starts.

My attention to this 'feature' only became apparent because of timing of the switch of modes and I have some albums with really long tracks.

Visualizers / Re: Old Sonique for MB

So you had no luck with it either. That's a shame.
My installation does not have this viz.ini file that you refer to, or will MusicBee pick it up if it is there?

Oh well, I may try again sometime. If it does work, I'll add an entry in this thread.
Thanks for letting me know.

Visualizers / Whitecap doesn't work, but it does

« on: October 12, 2015, 06:33:01 AM »

I saw Whitecap listed as a visualiser, and thought, that's good.
But when I tried to use it, Music Bee says that my hardware and drivers are not up to specification.

I do wonder about what criteria this is based on.
I own a copy of Whitecap, and Windows Media Player is quite able to employ it.
And if can employ the one I have installed, I wouldn't have a clue how to "link" it in.

It was interesting seeing some of the old Sonique visuals in place again. Thanks for that. 
I had never seen Rabbit Hole before, so that was interesting to watch.
My favourite, Spec'n'Hopp wasn't there though 
I have the svc for Sonique in my archives, so I did try and put it in, but Music Bee rejected it.

Your conversion process must be more than just following naming standards.
