dakn Posted October 30, 2017 Share Posted October 30, 2017 For a little while now I've been having problems opening Dopamine, with the process just hanging and/or just a black screen. It had made me stop using it cos I couldn't figure out why, but I have just discovered it is because it's conflicting with MSI Afterburner. Once I close that Dopamine opens. Has something changed that might have caused this? I was running the latest Release build.

Has something changed that might have caused this? I was running the latest Release build. Hi. Sad to hear that another application caused Dopamine to misbehave. It wasn't my doing though. A bit of searching on the web shows that this is not an isolated case. Other WPF applications also fail to work because of MSI Afterburner/Rivatuner. I have no idea what these tools are for though (overclocking?). It seems it's those developers that would need to whitelist Dopamine or something at least. https://discussions.agilebits.com/discussion/77292/crashes-on-windows-10-creators-update-caused-by-riva-tuner Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/1246136-dopamine/page/112/#findComment-598083226 Share on other sites More sharing options...
dakn Posted October 30, 2017 Share Posted October 30, 2017 (edited) Thanks for the reply mate. It's not a big deal now I know what's causing it. The only reason I thought to check Afterburner was because I had the same issue when trying to use Handbrake (encoding software) and found the solution online. I'll have to see if there is a beta version that might fix it ! Cheers.

ViperAFK Posted November 23, 2017 Share Posted November 23, 2017 Hi Raphael, I believe I've found a bug: With the current 1.5.x release, if the folder that a song is in contains a { or } character, dopamine will just totally lock up when you attempt to play a song from that folder (the song will play, but the dopamine UI totally locks up and you have to kill the process). As soon as I remove { or } from the folder that contains the song (and let dopamine re-index) the songs in that folder work without issue. If I go back and re-add the { character (and let dopamine re-index), if I try to play any song from that folder it locks up It doesn't matter whether the file is played from your music library, or if you open the file in dopamine from windows explorer Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/1246136-dopamine/page/112/#findComment-598109680 Share on other sites More sharing options...
+Zagadka Subscriber² Posted November 23, 2017 Subscriber² Share Posted November 23, 2017 I'm really not sure why, so I'm sorry that I can't present a cause, but after a couple of hours, Dopamine starts getting stutters. Have to exit and restart it, it performs perfectly again.

I just added extra sorting by filename for the songs of the processed directory, as, until now, I just relied on the order in which a standard .NET function fetches the file.

Just Elevation Posted November 26, 2017 Share Posted November 26, 2017 (edited) mine is not working.. I tried to update to the latest version ( 1.5.4) but nothing happen. The Installer is open twice but do nothing. Windows 10 17043 build 64bit. I looked for security/rights for your .msi file . All seems good. PS: never mind, just ignore this reply...I found what is wrong...It's not your .msi file, it's the Windows Installer from my win10....I seems to be somehow not working anymore in this win10 version. I tried another app installer/updating...No working. Bad bad Microsoft Many thanks and congratulation for your awesome app. I'm using every day since you give us the first the opportunity to testing and using it.
