Hey, Raphaël!

I'd like to make two quick suggestions.

1. Add support to reproduce folders and not just files; this is very useful when we don't have playlists created and want to just play an album from the Windows File Explorer.

2. When we play a song from the File Explorer, I think it would make more sense to show "now playing" by default; or at least create an option for it if others and yourself disagree :D

Thanks for your amazing work, man!
Cheers!

1. How would that work (just brainstorming, I kinda like the idea). Drag and drop a folder on dopamine?

2. Also a neat idea. I'll see what I'll do (option or by default)

Thanks!

Not sure when it was added, but hte glow around the window in Win10 looks really cool 

A build or 2 ago, when I fixed maximizing. I'm glad you like it. It is optional, as I know people who don't like it :)

Context menu when we right click on a folder containing audio files, just the way Windows Media Player and VLC implement it ;)

Please make the hamburger list drop down track with the song being played...ie if I drop down the list and select a song and hit play...then put the list back up...later when I go to drop down the list have it open where the current song is being played please...

Please try out the Follow song feature. I think it does what you want :)

Installed on a new machine, pointed to music folder on a networked pc, there is quite a long pause before there is any indication that there is anything happening.

Not really a problem, but I suppose a little Please Wait notice would be a nice touch.

I'll log a bug. So I don't forget about it.

With build 273 player gives an error and closes itself. There is no fixed interval error.

Can you send me the logfile? %appdata%\Dopamine\Log

I'm going to violate my earlier "keep it minimal as possible" and wonder if a sound normalization could be added to the process... Probably a long shot, but it would be nice.

I am using Windows 7 and I have the application pinned to my start menu and task bar, as well as a shortcut on my desktop.  Every time I install a new build of Dopamine all 3 of these items no longer work.  When trying to run the application from one of these methods after installing a new build I get a shortcut error saying "The parameter is incorrect".  I have to recreate the desktop shortcut and re-pin the application to the task bar and start menu in order for the shortcuts to work.  Do you know why this would be happening every time I install a new build?

I honestly have no idea. It did that on my computer a while ago, but since a few months my shortcuts remained OK after new installs so I have never looked into. I'll check if I can do anything about it.

In the meantime, Dopamine is getting a Windows 10 makeover (work in progress, note that not all buttons are changed yet):

Maybe. I'll check what this audio lib is capable of.

Oh no. Please keep the current playback control icons. This is what make Dopamine unique. And I think that it's more reachable because of it's size.
