Based on your description rat_pizza, you unzipped the patch into the wrong folder and most likely deleted some important files in the process. You need to unzip into the same folder as musicbee.exe, overwriting the files that are there with the ones from the zip and not deleting anything else.

To anyone who can help...I am currently unable to stream any music from SoundCloud.
The following error pops up whenever I try to play a song: unable to open stream (error=BASS_ERROR_WMA_DENIED)
I'm on the latest version of MB (v3.4.7942 P). Thanks in advance.

I can confirm this.  Downloads are not working either.

They did make some security changes in July and also applying the change they stated for api requests to the streaming or download link request doesnt make any difference.
So I am not sure if its something missing in their documentation or perhaps a faulty update on their side. I will give it a week or so and if nothing has changed on their side (documentation or otherwise) then i guess its for the chopping board

This was something I always noticed but could never manage to intentionally reproduce.
I'm able to now and it doesn't seem to be a problem with the skin. It occurs under the following conditions:

- When a soundcloud song is paused and resumed after a minute, the song will restart...but not the progress bar.
- Same thing will happen if you try to seek to a point in the playing track. (song restarts but the track position does not)

I cant reproduce any issues, including the track you are showing. Are you using a recent v3.5 patch version? There was a fix done that is relevant to this issue

That must have fixed it. I was using MusicBee v3.5.8064.28759P when I reported this.
Just updated to MusicBee v3.5.8100 P and it's all good now. Thanks.
