MusicBee Wishlist / Re: Private stream broadcasts

Oh.  The module is both client and server?  The instructions were unclear on that.  I thought it was either the client or server, not both.

Sort of.  What isn't clear is how I access the server.  Do I treat that as just another stream?

Which machine does that get installed in?  The instructions http://getmusicbee.com/forum/index.php?topic=3620.0 mentioned a drive.  But I don't know how the connection is made.

Due to DRM issues, I can see a requirement that the stream be encrypted with a passcode of some form.

The settings from the other machine are identical except for the number of tracks.  Those are fewer as I need a larger font.

Sorry.  Auto-DJ on both machines.

MusicBee Wishlist / Private stream broadcasts

Any chance we could get a feature where MusicBee broadcasts a stream for other MusicBee instances on the same local network to play?  I don't care if the stream goes out over the Internet.  I'd just like to go from one PC to another and find the same music playing.

Questions / Last play date surprises

« on: August 21, 2016, 11:09:59 PM »

I have two machines.  My main desktop hosts my MP3 files.  The second system is a media PC.  On that machine, MusicBee has it's own copy of the database, but accesses the MP3 files from the first.

Recently, I bought Classic Petra Live: Back to the Rock which has many songs on it from my older Petra albums.  I've seen that the desktop never plays the original versions of any song on the Classic Petra Live album.  Meanwhile, the media PC never plays any Petra songs that are on the Classic Petra Live album—even those on the original album.

Any ideas what's going on?

Bug Reports / Docked miniplayer has wrong position

« on: June 19, 2016, 04:16:06 AM »

I minimize MusicBee into the miniplayer and dock it into my secondary monitor which is to the left of my primary monitor.  It seems to have troubles aligning itself with the rest of the desktop.   The image at http://i.imgur.com/c8BieRF.png shows the issue.

Questions / Re: Version 3.x claims my music files are missing

« on: June 10, 2016, 07:22:51 AM »

What happens if you make it rescan one of the files (Send to> File Rescan)?
If that works, try Tools> Advanced> Rescan All Files command.

Send To/File Rescan ran without output so I assume it succeeded.  So I ran Tools/Advanced/Rescan.  I saw it listing a bunch of albums, but no errors again.  Turn "Check for Missing Files" back on again?

can you make an effort to reply to the questions i asked otherwise i wont be able to help. Also i edited the questions while you replied

I didn't get that far.  It was refusing to play the file with the "check for missing files" switch set.  I didn't notice any ! icons, but didn't think of looking for them either.

It was complaining that it couldn't find any of the MP3 files.

can you explain that some more eg. what were you doing, how did the message appear, etc
or are you saying that you have "check for missing files" set in the library preferences and an ! mark is appearing against every file?

All i did was attempt to start playback after upgrading.

Questions / Version 3.x claims my music files are missing

« on: June 09, 2016, 11:18:34 PM »

I installed MusicBee 3.0 last night.  It was complaining that it couldn't find any of the MP3 files.  On that machine, all of the music (but not the database) reside in M: which is mapped to a remote Windows machine.  That hasn't changed.  I haven't upgraded MusicBee on my other machine (the one with the share hosting those MP3 files) as I'm concerted the same thing will happen there.  Strangely, if you tell MusicBee to not look for missing music files, it plays those MP3 just fine.

What's going on?  Do I need to be concerned?

Questions / Re: I just installed 2.3.5173 and have some feedback on the new mini-player

« on: March 06, 2014, 01:46:26 AM »

Nope.  There's a new larger mini-player option.  Right-click on your mini-player and select Customize Layout.  Then select "Modern Layout".
