pickle Wrote:Crossfading seems to have a bug. Previous files aren't fading out when the current file is a net stream.

To reproduce:
  1. Play a file/stream
  2. In the playlist window, double click on a stream
  3. The new stream will start playing overtop the previous file/stream
This doesn't happen when going to a local file, only a stream. Stopping and starting playback removes the previous file & only the current file is played.


Ah thanks pickle!

I'll get this one fixed for the next build!

Yup, initially this will support for a .jpg in the same folder.

I'm currently working on Unicode support. I have several thousand compile errors to get through but I think I'm almost halfway through now!

:shock: I've never seen more than half a dozen errors before... then again, I've not written any code much more than 100 lines. Fortunately, fixing one error seems to eliminate four others.

So in theory we could build a playlist into a main player mode if we have the elements and playlist tags in that file?

Heh the Xion code base is quite large ;)

Yeah its not always the case with these errors. For unicode I need to wrap all strings in _T("Hi") instead of "Hi" and then change all char types to TCHAR. So lots of checking out the code to make sure the change will work, 1 error at a time :|

So far its taken about 8-12 hours fixing compile errors :roll:

I think this is ultimately what we would hope for, we could port over some cPro skins to start off with, then introduce some spangly new ones that would work in both

Essentially you could, yes. The playlist window is resizeable though so some things won't work too well.

I'm working on a new skin (the other 7 ideas will have to wait heheh)
I will be looking at implementing something like this, ideally would be cool to get it in both players

What we're hoping Cliff is if we can port over some cPro skins, as the graphics are done so would need some jigging around to fit into Xion, at least we can try to get a few skins done

Actually I can't remember :( Can you let me know what's going wrong?

Ah yup, I've fixed this one for 108, thanks!

we talked about it first time here (build 85 omg long time ago!)

http://xion.r2.com.au/community/vwtpc.php?t=621

you found ot the answer here:

http://xion.r2.com.au/community/vwtpc.p ... c&start=15

didn´t work again but was solved again here:

http://xion.r2.com.au/community/vwtpc.php?t=665

the problem of last build is similar but not exactly the same.

hope that helps. :)

I can send you a simple skin to check it out if you want...

Ah ok, I think its fixed, but just to be sure, can you send me the skin so that I can double check?

Thanks!

OK Cliff I am constructing a skinned playlist right now, it is proving to be difficult, but it is coming along. Does the playlist not support desktop alpha yet? Is it my understanding that the border is for dragging to resize and edge is expandable but moveable parts? Also, I would love to option to stretch instead of tile for border and edge parts.
