I'm fixing this issue. The LRC format has given me some headaches. But I'm now improving the LRC parser and adding some automated tests which will prevent behavior to change between releases.

I'll soon release a 15.5.14 beta 1, with these fixes. Give me a day or 2, as I'd like to spend some time getting this right.

Thanks man,  I have a possible feature request for a future version.  The download lyrics from section could be a sortable list.  Netease lyrics have timestamps available in some cases and I would like it to search that site first, followed by any others.

 

Another small bug:  my lyrics download timeout is Language_none seconds.  I'm not sure how long that is.

Lately I have been moving a lot of large files from hard drive to hard drive and I notice while doing this that Dopamine starts skipping or having issues playing or retrieving the music file from the hard drive while its copying other files... is there a way to have an option where we can increase the memory cache size for dopamine to alleviate some of this?

 

Thank you!

You could try increasing the latency setting in Settings > Playback. I'm not sure if that will fully solve this issue though.

Hi everyone,

 

Dopamine 1.5.14 Release Candidate 1 has been released today. This is the change log:

 

– [Changed] Updated the Swedish translation
– [Fixed] Further improved scaling for narrower monitors

 

That last entry in the change log seems crazy in this day and age. But I have people using Dopamine on vertical monitors

@Ned How is lyrics support treating you in the 1.5.14 betas?

 

Enjoy!

I'll give it a go, thank you!

Sorry, I don't typically beta test.  How many betas did you release because the last one crashed on me.

 

Two beta's, okay.  I'll try this one out.  I get a crash when I edit lyrics on a song with no lyrics.  Hmm, it's happened once.  Hard to reproduce.

Download lyrics from options are greyed out. I can't select or deselect anything.   Deleting the settings.xml fixed that...annoying.

 

... {after lots of edits}  Looks like if I right click on the lyrics screen too fast after startup it crashes.  Also the file has to have no lyrics in it.

Hi,

Thanks a lot for trying this out! I realized that testing on my computer doesn't make me discover all possible issues. That's why I re-introduced beta's.

I just fixed all issues you mentioned. Sorry for having them in the first place.

As for the lyrics not being found for "Untitled track", I suspect that the title "Untitled" causes the issue. I'm not sure yet. For other tracks NetEase support works fine.

 

Edit: another question: is the white line issue for timed lyrics resolved on your side?

Dopamine 1.5.14 Release Candidate 2 is available. Download + info here: https://www.digimezzo.com/2018/04/30/dopamine-1-5-14-release-candidate-2/

In that particular case the track was untitled I think.  Yep, the issue is fixed in the latest rc.  (The lyrics formating and the crash)

[Nick H. Supervisor]

I just want to say - if I haven't already - this is incredible. I've been using this as my main player since its release and it works brilliantly for me. @Raphaël G.I'm astonished at the work that you continue to put in to this program, and given it was a hobby to begin with I think we can all look to you as a great example of what can be achieved when we put our minds to something that interests us.

Hi @Nick H., thanks a lot for the kind words. This kind of feedback means a lot to me, and is partly what keeps the project going. The other part comes from my inexhaustible need to learn new stuff, to learn better ways to program and to support users. It's challenging, but I need this, apparently :).

Will this be fixed by then?

Yes

 

Edit: however I want to add that the fix will be a workaround for user's which are, essentially, mixing up the artists and album artists tag. There is no AI to detect which tracks are from 1 album. It has to happen based on tag values. Dopamine 1 groups tracks which have the same Album artist and album title. Dopamine 2 will group all tracks which have the same album title. So, I can see the next complaint I'll get: why are tracks from 2 albums which have the same album title grouped into 1 album?

[dakn]

Yep exactly. You're putting in a fix that isn't required because someone can't tag their artists properly! (Don't do it ;))

 

People that have albums titled "Greatest Hits" Won't be happy!

any chance of you publishing an entry on the Window Store now that they allow WIN32 x86/x64 entries?

the extra level of sandboxing would be nice; even for an audio player

I've long postponed "fixing" this, as the current behavior is the only correct one. But the amount of complaints and questions I get about the current behavior is just exhausting. I've spent already too much time explaining this. So the behavior change will happen, for the sake of my mental health  I'm still brainstorming how I can make this optional though. As I smell trouble already.

I can't say for sure. I've attempted publishing Dopamine to the store already, but the process is tiresome and includes contact with a Microsoft support engineer. I abandoned it after a few weeks. Maybe I'll try again in the future. Hopefully the process of adding a win32 app to the store will be more streamlined by then.
