Questions / Playing tracks in Mini mode stuck on Track w/ Thumbnail
« on: June 05, 2021, 02:22:37 AM »
A while ago I updated Musicbee to a "patched" version of v3.4 (found here) trying to troubleshoot a different problem, but ever since then the track list in mini mode has been stuck on "Track with Thumbnail" regardless of what layout setting I use.
Today I updated to v3.4.7805 via the latest installer, but this issue still persists.
The panel layout settings work fine in the standard full player, it's only the mini player that ignores the setting.

Is this an issue that only I'm experiencing, maybe because of that patch?
And is there anyway to fix it?

That search bar only seems to look for track names, or what MusicBee thinks the track name is
Which makes perfect sense to me for that panel.
I agree with you on that, but it still leaves me with my problem unfortunately.

…which means I can't search for them, and changes the sort order.
Yes you can.
The field 'Filename' will make that possible.
Ah, it does work in the library search.
I always use the search bar in the 'Playing tracks' list, so I can jump to a track without changing what's playing.
That search bar only seems to look for track names, or what MusicBee thinks the track name is

Questions / Way to change how MusicBee "interprets" filenames?
« on: March 20, 2021, 08:14:31 AM »
MusicBee seems to have a feature that interprets specific filenames as tags, but in my specific use case, it's proving to be unhelpful.
Is there any option to disable this?
I tried looking through the settings myself, but couldn't find anything.

For context, I use youtube-dl to download tracks from SiIvaGunner, and the filename contains the video's title, which is formatted like this:
[song name] - [game name]


However MusicBee picks up on the " - " in the filename, and seems to interpret it like this:
[album/artist name] - [song name]


All it really does is strip the actual track name, which means I can't search for them, and changes the sort order.
I know this could also be solved by manually tagging the tracks and I do plan on doing that, but if there was a way to disable this feature, then I could at least search for tracks in the temporary folder before I do tag them.

Right Click->Panel Layout->Playing Tracks->Track Details
It's already on 'Track Details'. Changing between the 3 options there doesn't actually change anything oddly.

Update to the latest 3.4.x version, apply the latest patch (https://getmusicbee.com/patches/MusicBee34_Patched.zip)
Unrelated to this issue, updating musicbee to that latest patch changed how the song list in mini mode looks.
It used to look more compact like the image on the right, but now it shows the album cover for each track.

I'm not quite sure what you mean but DSP settings
I mean the ones in the list when you go to Prefs->Player->Equalizer & DSP (button);  then below the equalizer you should see a list like the below--uncheck everything.
Ah, I found them.
Everything is already unchecked here.

Update to the latest 3.4.x version, apply the latest patch (https://getmusicbee.com/patches/MusicBee34_Patched.zip), add freshly-imported backup copies of the affected files, then do a "Rescan All Files" from Tools->Advanced->Rescan all Files.  You didn't say whether you had ALL DSP plugins disabled, just the "skip starting and ending silence" setting--check for any others also.
Finally, whitelist all MusicBee folders in any antivirus you may have.  Any change?
I'm not quite sure what you mean but DSP settings, but if you mean these, then yes all of them are off

I've done everything else you said, but the issue still persists.
Interestingly enough, I found out that if nothing else is queued up to play and the troubled track is the last thing to play, it will play the end of the track past when the program says 0:00
So it seems like the issue is that it tries to play the next track a second too early or something.

Maybe the file header is hosed in some obscure way that only MB (or the bass library) reacts to. If it's an MP3 you can check/fix in mp3val if it's not an MP3 I'm assuming there are other tools for other formats.

Other than that I'm out of ideas.
Sadly that doesn't seem to be the solution either.
Neat software though

Check the end time on the files it happens to (on the settings tab of the tag editor) to make sure it's not set to end tracks early.
Otherwise all I can think of is a problem with your output settings and you'd have to trial and error it.

End time doesn't seem to be the cause, it's defaulted to the true ending time it seems, as trying to increase the value automatically puts it back to this.

I haven't touched output settings previously, and the configure button is greyed out for all options.
Also worth noting I don't have any "ASIO devices".

if its not what frankz suggests, could you also confirm you don't have any dsp plugins enabled and that you dont have "skip starting and ending silence" ticked in the Player preferences
That setting is unticked, yes.

This is an issue I've been having for some time now, I thought I solved it by tweaking a setting, but it seems to be back.
It's hard to tell how often it happens, but at least some tracks seem to end up to a second earlier than their actual runtime, cutting the end of the track off.
I've tried playing around with settings, but even adding 3 seconds of silence after each track doesn't fix this, and in fact doesn't seem to do anything at all.

It's not an issue with specific music tracks though, as windows media player correctly plays the full track.
What could be causing this issue, and how might I solve it?
