[release] Isongs 3.1 Public Beta

[alilm]

Hey there,

Download iSongs Public Beta (1.6 MB)

Ok this is kinda weird i admit, many of the beta testers have not heard anything from me and now a versions beign released? Sorry to you beta guys, il be sure you actually get some versions in the future.

This version is just to put some people out of their misery . This version is working fine, playlists, some visuals, search all included, its not 100% finished as you'll tell but a definite taster of whats to come.

And hopefully smeggy will hear its tone

Note: If you find a bug that crashes the app, please report it, but if its just a buttons not working, or similar, I know about it, i just havnt coded it yet.

No read me so i guess youll have to figure out how to work it

Please, tell me what you think, comments, suggestions.

I'm not sure if this is a bug you know about, but when I add songs from the directory to the playlists, the playlist starts blinking rapidly. Am i the only one?

[zpodseven]

nope, happens to me too

[Darth Maul]

Here it is consuming 99% CPU.

When click in the next track button, it closes.

It does not open .m3u files?

Great Work!

[BamBam]

Hmmm I tried to add an m3u playlist so I didn't have to manually do a playlist... it didn't like that and crashed out straight away... also one time it "lost" what was in the playlist and crashed out straight away when I was switching from the visualisation window to the mini version and back to normal full view also the scratchy and popping noises here too

[alilm]

Ok it doesnt support M3U playlists, i never said it would.

To stop the flashing for now.

Save your playlist, restart the app then open it again.

[Nif]

Seems like any more than 10 files in my playlist, and it'll start flickering. It also loses the playlist when I go to the visualization and back. ;

That's about all I can find at the moment. It does take up a ton of CPU, though.

edit: And moving the volume slider all the way to the left doesn't lower the volume all the way. Other than that, it's great.

edit2: Okay, I don't think it's the number of songs that's making it flicker. x_X When I load a directory, the first track never loads, and the playlist flickers until I remove the blank track.

Example

Im pretty sure all of these can be fixed, for one the cpu is high on purpouse, it can go down to 0, il fix the flicker and hopefully the volume.

hey, very cool work, but why is it that its killing my computer resorces, even media player only uses up 3-5% this app is using 75-80%! was wondering if it was a glitch or something.

Anubis, what are your system specs?

Also, make sure you have Microsoft's .NET framework installed on your system. Alilm's apps need it to run.

1. Some refresh problems when adding songs using the 'add directory' feature. The list of songs keeps on flashing on the screen.

2. Some of the buttons also takes time to refresh or show.

3. Display not correct when minimised to small player. Name of song is at the right side of the player.

Keep up with the good work though.

[bolero]

wow amazing.. works great alilm im extreamly impressed

of course i cannot use it until that 100% cpu is fixed.. and like everyone else says i get the flickering but.. i took my time explored through the features and options and i love it!

[doofy]

hmm great job so far but needs alot of work

[smeggy]

I downloaded it and gave it a blast, despite the bugs and unfinished parts it certainly shows great potential. Keep up the good work, I think this has a great deal of potential.

I'm looking forward to the finished release :boob shake:

Nah you dont.

[LoofyGun]

Good work alilm, finally a good itunes clone. I have some bugreporting to do. I'm sorry if these are posted already.

1. When i play and go to visualization and back the song disappeares from the playlist.

2. I can't add a whole directory or multiple files.

I haven't found more besides those that have been mentioned. Keep up the good work.

[alilm]

OK, heres a vastly improved version. Fixed the flickering and the CPU bug.

To add a whole directory you have to make sure to DOUBLECLICK the folder you are adding.

Still got work to do, but this versions good.
