MusicBee Wishlist / Re: Unintuitive Layout for Nested Playlist Folders

« on: July 03, 2022, 09:41:04 PM »

+1    Hello everyone.

I'm running MB v.3.5.8150 and it looks to me nothing has changed regarding the folder level view.

I made one more mockup to visualize the difference between the current unnatural and a natural layout:

 

I constantly stumble about this thing since a while now.
It would truly be a benefit to see this implemented.

Thank You in advance.
Greetings.

Portable Devices / Re: Playlist Sync not working with Sony Walkman

« on: May 15, 2022, 01:05:58 PM »

Hi everybody.

The solution is ... the playlist storage settings must be:
    Path: "Music\"  (not case sensitive)
    Format: "M3U"
    Relative Path: NO

... and was found here ...
    https://ameblo.jp/ameameameba-30/entry-12683627715.html

Obviously the device scanner only discovers audio files if they are included in any playlist-file. But the playlist-files need to be stored under "Music\" to make them visible for the device internal media-scanner.

It works perfect for my Sony WALKMAN NWZ-E380 Series device.

MusicBee API / Re: Project M Visulizer?

« on: April 15, 2022, 11:00:29 PM »

Thanks Sveakul,

I've tried both versions of BASS_SFX.dll v2.4.2.3, via WASAPI and DirectSound - no success.
MB just instantly crashes when the visualizer become started.

Maybe anyone else can test the plugin and report if it is working, and if so, what is the environment:
- MB version
- version of bass-plugins (BASS_SFX.dll)
- Audio output (Direct Sound/ WASAPI Exclusive/ WASAPI Shared, ASIO)
- Windows Version
- graphic driver version

Greetings.

I made projectM for MusicBee: https://getmusicbee.com/addons/visualizer/360/projectm/

Hi Raul,

thank You for uploading the visualizer plugins.

so far I've tried ...
- G-force
- Geis (4.x)
- Geis 2
- ProjectM

Unfortunately all of the tested visualizers lead to instant crashes of MB on my side!
Could you please provide some advice what we just should check/update?

Thank You in advance.

I made projectM for MusicBee: https://getmusicbee.com/addons/visualizer/360/projectm/

Hi Raul,

thank You for uploading the ProjectM visualizer plugin.
Unfortunately I'm unable to make it work - immediate crash of MB is the result. No matter if run in embedded or full-screen mode.
Could you please provide any support to make it run?
Did you have any suggestions what I just should check?

So far I've tried to replace the BASS_SFX.dll with version 2.4.2.1 from here: http://www.un4seen.com/forum/?topic=9488 ,
but that didn't changed anything from the above described behavior.

Thank You in advance.

Hello, I've just recognized that there seems to be a problem with private SEND-messages: They can't be displayed at all. (at least for me).

That's what I get when clicking on "Send Items":

DATABASE ERROR
Please try again. If you come back to this error screen, report the error to an administrator.

Can anyone have a look please?

Bug Reports / Re: Hangs on Radio Station if Station Does Not Respong

« on: January 15, 2022, 04:36:34 PM »

What "is" the issue? I'm just curious.

I can't explain what exactly the issue is, but I will explain how I fixed it - because I had exactly the same very very annoying issue before:
- updating the file "bass_aac.dll" from 2.4.5.8 to 2.4.5.22
- updating the file "basshls.dll" from 2.4.2.0 to 2.4.3.1

Both files are located right at the MusicBee program directory.
The link to the most recent version of "bass_aac.dll" can be found here ...
https://getmusicbee.com/forum/index.php?topic=23454.0
The link to the most recent version of "basshls.dll" can be found here ...
http://www.un4seen.com/download.php?basshls24

This solved every streaming issues I had before. I hope it helps you too.
Greetings.


Herewith I just would like to suggest to update/integrate the file "basshls.dll" in the MusicBee-Package at least.
I assume the file "bass_aac.dll" can't be integrated due to licensing issues.

P.S.
I can't understand why this obvious issue the OP is pointing on here, is dealt in such indecent way.

Bug Reports / Re: Report Website related bugs/issues here

Hi there,

I'm still getting "Database Error" when I want to view "Sent Items".
In the message list I can see that I have replied to messages (marked with a backward arrow) , but in the "Conversation" view all my sent messages are not displayed.

I've just found out that in my message settings "Save a copy of each personal message in my sent items by default." was disabled.
It looks to me that this could be the reason, but enabling it didn't change anything for still getting the above mentioned "Database Error".
Maybe I need to send again a message to have a look whats happen.

Just a thought: could it have something to do with that my profile username differs from my display name?

Thank You already.
Greetings

Visualizers / Re: Milkdrop Visualiser Support

« on: June 22, 2021, 09:23:48 PM »

Hello Everyone,

I strongly start to belive there is a systematic problem with the Milkdrop 2.2 plugin in connection with the recent Windows and / or graphic driver updates.

In 90% case I get the following errors here (and random others too) followed by subsequent crashes of MB:





I'm sure I tried every solution approach which was mentioned in this thread here.
Unfortunately I had no success .

Currently I have several burning question:

1. Is anybody out there who got solved these issues in a reproducible way?
2. Who is the maintainer of the modified milkdrop-plugin which can work with MusicBee in general?
3. Can anybody confirm my theory that the almost ancient milkdrop-plugin is becoming incompatible with newer Windows or graphic driver versions just right now?
4. If the 3rd question must be answered with yes - can we all just only hope now to find a new maintainer for the open sourced milkdrop-plugin to heave it on a new level to be compatible with modern graphic APIs?

... in that regard, someone obviously did just that already and implemented the Milkdrop enigine into WebGL2:
    https://getmusicbee.com/forum/index.php?topic=35008.0
    https://butterchurnviz.com
The result just works rock solid and fluid as well    - but in browsers only  

I really would appreciate any constructive answers.

Thank you all.

MB: 2.4.7826
AMD Radeon: 21.4.1
W10: 21H1

MusicBee Wishlist / MilkDrop Visualizer Fresh-Up : Butter Churn Viz

« on: May 30, 2021, 02:31:51 AM »

Hi there,

I love the original Milkdrop visualizer a lot, but struggle with the old fashioned plugin, which started working unreliable recently and causing constant crashes for me nowadays.
Right now - I just found Butter Churn Viz (https://butterchurnviz.com/)

"Butterchurn (2018) is a web implementation of the original source code of Milkdrop released on the WinAmp forum in 2007."

https://webamp.org/ Butter Churn in Action!
https://github.com/jberg/butterchurn/ Butter Churn SourceCode
https://www.wikiwand.com/en/MilkDrop



Immediately I tried to find a way to use it with / respectively getting it implemented into MusicBee somehow.
Since it can be displayed in a browser natively, I just wonder if it could get loaded/displayed into MusicBee as a Website somehow too ...

"Butterchurn v2.6.7.1e-complete (2020-08-20) is easy to implement with example webpage and extended functions and implementation manual."

There exist a Butterchurn Chrome Extention as well.

Otherwise, it's maybe just an inspiration but also a reminder to focus the attention again onto a very beautiful aspect of musical enjoyment - Visualization - and the support of these kind of plugins.

Plugins / Re: Logitech LCD

« on: April 11, 2021, 05:18:28 PM »

Hi pitkon,

there is a very good chance for that.
You will need ...

- Logitech GamePanel Software 3.04.137 (should be the latest built of Version 3)
This should be used if ONLY LCD drivers are required to install. Otherwise you should install the latest drivers of your keyboard.
https://ftp.lp0.dk/pub/archives/ftp-sites/ftp.logitech.com/pub/techsupport/keyboards/
https://ftp.lp0.dk/pub/archives/ftp-sites/ftp.logitech.com/pub/techsupport/keyboards/lgps304_x64.exe
(Just run the Setup. The Installer contains the "Windows SideShow Driver for Logitech monochrome devices")

- MB Logitech LCD Plugin
https://github.com/jimmyd-be/MusicBee-Logitech-applet
https://github.com/jimmyd-be/MusicBee-Logitech-applet/releases/tag/2.4.2

Hope that will help you out.

Bug Reports / Re: 3.1.6512 Many Milkdrop command keys broken

« on: April 10, 2021, 05:46:11 PM »

Hello phread, Understood.
Unfortunately, I didn't bother to check OPs status.

Sorry to say this, but your answer make me feel uncomfortable. Is there anything wrong in your eyes to provide a solution to a problem that's potentially not only helpful for the OP but also anyone else who come across this thread and to make him/her happy to find a solution?
Otherwise, what's the purpose of keeping an unanswered post in here?

No offense. Have a nice Day.
Greetings.
