I just downloaded MJ 8.0.388 and I feel that it is one of the best pieces of software of its kind. HOWEVER I have run into many bugs. Now, I'm not sure if these are specific to me, but I did my best to read through the forum for solutions before posting.
heres what wasnt answered!
1. MJ ALWAYS crashes when I try to acces a cd (either ripping or just accessing in the tree on the left of the screen) It just says "gathering information and updating..." then crashes. Everytime.
2. the black box on the lower left that shows the currently playing file, doesn't clear previous text before displaying new text. so basically, it turns into a garbled mess very quickly.
3. I cannot use skins. it more often than not crashes outright, or buttons disappear, either way it is absically useless.
4. Even when I select CDDB in the prefs, it still accesses YADB
5. the program is just generally unreliable. It'll be fine for a while, and then just disappear, not even an error message, it'll just be gone from my desktop.
Now my system is not out of date, I run WinXP (which I do a clean restore of about monthly with driveimage) and the hardware is more than sufficient.
Any solutions will be greatly appreciated. You can understand my apprehension at putting money down with all this going on.....
