Digital playback is scratchy and with periodic pops.
Just tried two same songs from two different cd's with MJ and EAC. MJ played with pops, EAC played them clean.

Yes. All those tabs and buttons didn't really add that much other than clutter. This way you actually get more screen space for the list if you want it. The splitter will also support double-click and right-click. (eventually)
And we plan to add easier display changing in a future version.

1. Cannot see/use user-developed visualizations because they don't show up on the Visualization sub-menus. You have to open the Visualization Studio and open them in there to use them in MJ.
2. All to often, MJ crashes when swithing and/or enabling visualizations and trying to bring up the Visualizaton Studio. This appears to be the most unstable part of all MJ 8.0 releases...MJ crashes about 80% of the time when I attempt these actions. I kringe everytime I click on on them in fear MJ is about to crash (again).

Are you using a Soundblaster Live Card? This popping and scrtatching sound came back a few betas ago, and I had to mute the CD in Mixer properties to get rid of it...

Track Info : Resizing MJ while viewing Track Info (or resizing the pane divider, or the vis window if viewing in a window) causes all kinds of messy refreshes/flashing.
Auto-Expand Branches : None of their respective toolbar buttons cause the branches to auto-expand the way they do when you click on that branch. This goes for Playing Now, Media Library, Playlists, and Devices.
Request : Thank you for adding Play, Send To, etc. to all of the branches beneath Media Library. Can we also get these for Media Library itself? So the actions will be carried out on everything displaying in Media Library? Also, can we get File Properties on all branches?
Request : Currently, we can't Quick Play a playlist group. We also get messy playlist lists such as "Genre Weighted Playlist\Rock - 60". How about handling playlists and playlist groups the same way that Media Views are handled in Quick Play. A Playlist Group will be have branches for each playlist/smartlist inside of it, and if you double click the playlist group, MJ plays that entire group, just like it would for an album if you double clicked the album name in Quick Play.
This way we can play Playlist Groups from Quick Play and we also get rid of the messy playlist names.

Bugs still there:
Focus problems:
Can't tab away from Search field in Media Library.
Keyboard focus is lost on return from full-screen mode.
When you edit Genre (or many other fields) in File Properties and press Return, keyboard focus is lost.
Can't tab out of an IE pane, such as Home or Web Media.
Fast-forward and rewind still don't work in video files.
Help menu remains grayed out when you return from About. This seems to be a general problem with menus and pop-ups.
When you pause a file, the whole status line is replaced with Paused, so you can't see where you are in the file. Given that the position slider changes shape, this seems a bit redundant. Also, when fast-forwarding or rewinding, the time display is intermittently replaced by Buffering... so you also can't see where you are.

If you take a mp3 that has both tags, then use the option to remove the tags, mj reports that the tags are removed.
when you go into properties and check, mj reports id3v1, and id3v2 = No (no tags)
when you now use the option to update all files, mj now saves id3v1 and id3v2 tags and like i said the option to do so is turned off.
i think it also did this in 7.2

1. Using Media File Properties to rename files physically located on a networked drive fails. I used MJ to play (not import) some MP3s on another PC's hard drive. Then, I decided to rename them using MJ. MJ could update the tags, but the renames all failed. MJ popped up the Confirm File Move dialog even though I was not changing the drive/directory location (that's a bug too). Then, MJ displayed the 'MJ failed to move/rename the following files' error dialog. So, MJ has two problems with renaming files on networked drives: 1) erroneous 'Confirm File Move' and 2) rename always fails.

Post by: Udo_1 on February 16, 2002, 09:43:07 am
The one by one method allows a various number of files to be edited (usually two to six). This behavior is common to all versions of MJ. Since it shows identical symptoms on total different machines (only the OS is common:W2K pro) and organizing functions I consider as major items of MJ, I’ll address it again in this thread.
Is anyone out there how has a clue, or is it already focused by dv?
Udo
For more details, I’ve copied the debugger output here. Lines beginning with # are comments, I added.
If you need my test files (24 mp3s), just let me know:
Udo.siegmund@foni.net
Please Note, I live about 7 hours ahead of you, so it might take a little to respond! This is the output of 206, but ver 207 is identical to this, so I was to lazy to redo it

I just found out, that MJ will crash on many files ripped by other software. Ripping the same CD one more time using MJ works fine. So, there must be some kind on incompatibility to those files. Playing doesn’t give you any problems.

I don't know if you also am referring to the ones I brought up, about pops and scratsches playing digital- and now also analog playback from a audio cd...
But I checked the same cd's and songs with EAC, and EAC gave a clear and clean sound, MJ did not.
Another thing, which may or may not have anything to do with MJ, is that my cd-rom drive makes a hell of a noise while playing back with MJ. When playing back with EAC it is much more silent (normal cd-rom noise from the cabinet)

1. You can't navigate the right window in the Visualization Studio with the keyboard. Makes it really diffucult to use having to mouse-click each row of settings. Still, it's harder to even bring up the Vis Studio because it crashes MJ about 80% of the time when I choose Visualization Studio from the right-click menu.

I don't get scratch playback of APE files.
We saw a scratchy playback problem a couple months ago that was solved by reinstalling the sound card driver.
Still, it sounds like it could be a problem with this build. Don't know.

PROBLEM:
Somehow, MJ gets into some state when minimized and/or not the active application that clicking on its taskbar icon or its tray icon does not restore it. Graphically, the taskbar icon for MJ will be depressed (as if it is the active application), but MJ will remain in the background behind all Windows Explorer and Internet Explorer screens. Using
Again, this happens on two PCs I have MJ on (one with Windows 2000 Pro and, now, one with XP Pro). Surely, others have seen MJ exhibit this behavior...I deal with it everyday for the last year now. I also notice this regularly when using Windows Explorer's right-click menu to Import tracks into MJ...MJ tries to become active to display the import totals dialog, but fails to come 'on top' on the running Explorer screen.
REQUEST:
Make the tray icon also minimize MJ to the tray when left-clicked and MJ is currently restored/maximized and the active application. If MJ is not the active application, it should do what it does now...make itself active. I know I can click on the taskbar icon to minimize MJ, but I'd like to just have to remember to click on the MJ's tray icon to do everything (minimize and restore)...like some other cool apps support (no brainer, in my opinion). Right now, if MJ is the active application and you click on its tray icon, it's a wasted click...MJ just refreshes itself...I'd like to see it minimize itself (to the tray, if configured so).

For Virtual Sub and Surround Field -
1. Select the DSP icon and the menu appears
2. Select Virtual Sub or Surround Field and the drop down appears
3. Make a selection from the drop down and the description DOES change to your selection
4. If DSP was off, the action of step 3 WILL TURN IT ON
So far, no problem....
ForEnvoronment, Intelli-Volume and Replay Gain -
1. Select the DSP icon and the menu appears
2. Select Environment, Intelli-Volume or Replay Gain and the drop down appears
3. Make a selection from the drop down and the description DOES'NT change to your selection
4. If DSP was off, the action from Step 3 WILL NOT TURN IT ON

Name - Artist.mp3
Name - Artist(2).mp3
Opened Properties on Name - Artist (2).mp3
Renamed Name - Artist(2).mp3 to Name - Artist.mp3
Clicked Save
Ask to overwrite Name - Artist.mp3 with new one
Clicked Yes
*** Everything is working normally up to this point
Looked in Playing now and was shocked. The Original Name - Artist.mp3 was AXED!
Shouldn't be there as I replaced it with the new one. Both items in playing now are pointing to the same file.
You can play the file but the Artist, Name, Genre, etc keep changing everytime you double click on it.
Artist: X¶
Name: tac
Album: acc
Genre: wma
Type: ogg
Length isn't right
Bitrate isn't right
Opening Properties on this file crashes MJ.
I can reproduce this everytime.

"Xstatic & King,
I don't get scratch playback of APE files."
For my part I was referring to playback of audio cd's being in the drive, not playback of APE or other file formats.

I just tried this at the eMusic site, and it worked like a charm. Thanks. However, some way to monitor download progress would be nice. Freeamp uses a series of progress bars, but a simple symbolic indicator, like the speaker that shows which track is playing, would be sufficient. Or even a running total in the status bar at the bottom of the screen.
Granted that I'm not a heavy user, mostly playing, ripping, and organizing, still I use MJ just about every day and have never had a crash or any other problem. I download and install the new beta every third day.

Also, make a vis full screen, bring up Vis Studio and try to edit an equation (Friendly mode off, of course). When you click on the entry, the top and bottom status bars appear, and you can edit the field, but as soon as they disappear, focus gets lost. You have to keep clicking on the entry and making quick changes.

Post by: Udo_1 on February 18, 2002, 06:24:45 am
I have some questions regarding this topic, since I just opened 1100 files in the property sheet:
1. Did the crash occured during opening or during updating those files?
2. Did you record all those files using MJxx?
Reason for this is: before I've started using MJ, I recorded mostly all my files with Real Jukebox. I can change or edit all files, which were recorded using MJ, but I'll get a crash, if I try to edit RealJukebox files. (Mentioned earlier in this thread).

MJ keeps playing, but locks up. Won't react to either mouse or keyboard - only to a ctrl-alt-del
* When playing around with the different track info templates, right clicking in general, makes MJ lock up the above way.
* Some of the track info templates make the cover art too large to fit in window if one wants to see a bit of the playlist. This depends on the original size of the cover art file.
Maybe a functionality in settings or whatever could make it possible for the user to decide how big that cover art should be in track info?
Post by: SeanC on February 18, 2002, 06:54:33 am
Could we add:
o In library, a context menu option to 'Find Artist' or 'Locate file->Find Artist'
o A toolbar button for find artist (even tho this would be the now playing artist, rather than the artist selected in the library view).

1) When player is stopped, the REMAINING_TIME TrackInfo keyword shows "Live", not the total time for the track.
2) When you stop the player, the position doesn't return to time 0:00. It should, since that's what happens when you press Play from Stop. The position acts like you hit Pause not Stop.

This didn't work for me. Just got a select files to play dialog. When I opened downloaded list the files just began to play. Would prefer something similar to the way RealOne and FreeAmp handle this.
Thanks for begining to add this feature though. I'm a heavy user of emusic and download entire albums many times per day.

> 1. Fixed: Multimedia keys should work better.
Still broken, same as 198. I also updated my keyboard driver from Windows Update.
Reiterating my report...
Multimedia keys work fine when MJ has focus.
When MJ does not have focus:
- Play/pause button "blips" playback when MJ is playing, and starts Windows Media Player
- Stop button causes MJ to GPF
- Prev/Next track buttons work fine.

If you're getting from a right click, that's just because a right click anywhere on a window's Title Bar will show you that menu. Try it right in the middle.
If you're not getting that menu from a left click or Alt-Space, then there's either something wrong with MJ8 under 2000, or there's something wrong with your PC.

- On the export playlist dialog, the last 2 groups of buttons act like a single group.
- In file properties, if I change the file name of a song that's playing, it says it can't be updated. But it knows enough to stop playing it. Why can't it rename it?
Thanks,

To one of the above posters, simply open the download manager (under tools) and drag the download album link from emusic into the dl mgr window. Its just that easy!

As reported earlier (by someone else), if there are 20 tracks, 8.0.7 appears to be trying to get the cover 20 times - each time with the track artist.
Looks like it is failing each time.
For compilations, instead of using the track artist, shouldn't you be using "various artists" or the album artist name and not attemping to look up each track?
Post by: BarryD99 on February 19, 2002, 03:49:55 pm
Then while it is playing, try to rip it.
Sometimes you get an error message that the device is in use or busy. Stop playing the CD. Try to get the the info again from cddb.
Sometimes the hour glass goes on and it looks like all the cpu in a tight loop. Running win 2000, I can't even shut down MJ with control alt delete.

Post by: Rusty on February 20, 2002, 08:14:25 pm
I must admit Windows 98 is really starting to give me the #@^%'s lately as it appears you need to completely wipe & re-load Windows at least once a year, if not sooner in some cases. This is a giant BUGGER! as I'm no computer wiz. I know my computer isn't working properly now & it needs doing, but I don't know how to go about it, as I don't want to stuff anything up ... I need this computer for my business. Most of the computer shop dudes around here (I've heard are a bit hopeless &) charge like wounded bulls, but I'll have to do something soon. Hopefully this memeory watch will help too.
Is there a good Microsoft operating system? Is there a good operating system? ... Trouble is that so much of the software out there is designed for Windows etc.
Thanks again - Fingers crossed - Rusty.

I've tried it with 3 different releases of the nVidia detonator drivers.
Another issue...
Songs with extended characters (accented letters, for example) are tagged incorectly and
display as garbage within the program.

Still could be the video driver. Crash <--> Detonator.

If MJ is running with a vis showing and my PC locks itself (It's XP) or a screensaver comes on, or if MJ has been minimized for a time, the vis window just stops displaying the vis. It might be all black, or it might just show whatever is underneath MJ at the time. I have to stop playback and then start it again for the vis window to start working again.
