The Favorites function should already work. Start playing any station, then hit "F" or right-click and choose "Favorite station". The heart icon in the status bar should change color, and the station should now appear under the Favorites menu.-tranglos (January 01, 2011, 08:08 PM)
No Favourites, No Memo, No History... but I love it too :-*
Will there be even a more minimal interface option?-Perry Mowbray (January 01, 2011, 07:48 PM)
:Thmbsup: That works!! Don't know why I couldn't think "F" for "Favourites ;)-Perry Mowbray (January 01, 2011, 08:11 PM)
More minimal? :) I haven't thought about it yet. Probably not anything like Winamp's "rolled up" style though, because it cannot be done very well with standard,. non-skinned windows.
I'll talk about skinning later, but the bottom line is, no skins. Standard UI only, that's what works.-tranglos (January 01, 2011, 08:11 PM)
No.. I don't want skins either or visualisations... was just thinking of a smaller window, or more controls in the Task Icon (and hotkeys?).-Perry Mowbray (January 01, 2011, 08:20 PM)

Hotkeys definitely - to bring up the main window, start and stop playing. As for the task icon menu, what else do you think should be there?-tranglos (January 01, 2011, 08:22 PM)
Is it possible to make the volume application specific rather than Global?-Perry Mowbray (January 01, 2011, 10:08 PM)
There's also going to be a way to save and restore volume for individual stations - some play quietly, others are quite loud. It's one of the history-related features.-tranglos (January 01, 2011, 10:27 PM)
More minimal? :)-tranglos (January 01, 2011, 08:11 PM)
For those who want no GUI, why not make all the functions work on a rightclick context menu that runs only in taskbar.-Stephen66515 (January 01, 2011, 11:42 PM)
In regards to muting being global, allow the user to select program mute, or global mute, as sometimes you might wanna mute the software to watch something on youtube for example.-Stephen66515 (January 01, 2011, 11:42 PM)
I was thinking something tiny (but with basic buttons) to tuck away somewhere: (see attachment in previous post (https://www.donationcoder.com/forum/index.php?topic=25068.msg229578#msg229578))-Perry Mowbray (January 02, 2011, 01:18 AM)

I like that! There is some tricker involved in making a Delphi application that has multiple, switchable "main" windows, but I think I know how to make it work.-tranglos (January 02, 2011, 06:37 AM)

Most times it selects a station and starts playing fine. Occasionally after selecting random Ethervane just shuts down. Immediately on the screen and a few seconds later in the task bar.
Anything else I can provide to help figure out why this happens? When I restart it and go to the debug log it's empty.-bob99 (January 11, 2011, 09:48 AM)

Started ER, Esc, search for a station, double-clicled on the entry in the 'Find Radio Station' window... ER just crashed after a sec.-PhilB66 link=topic=25068.msg231420#msg231420
I have tried for several minutes but can't find the download button for the Ethervane Radio.
I love oldies and christian radio and would love to be a supporter but can't find where to start.
Yes, I did watch your help video.

The program doesn't yet have its own web site - that will happen eventually.

The radio station was 'Afterhours'. No problem playing this station with RadioSure (also Baas based).-PhilB66 (January 11, 2011, 07:22 PM)

Tried running it on my Win 7 x64 with "CJFH" station and it also crashed. It didn't just go away like in XP. Win 7 popped up a screen "Ethervane Radio Has Stopped Working" but it did not have a reason why.-bob99 (January 11, 2011, 09:56 PM)
But the CJFH test still isn't even after the config change to False.-bob99 (January 12, 2011, 09:22 AM)
Installing on my Win 7 tonight. Meant to ask before. Should I 1st delete the files in the folder where I placed the earlier version or will they be overwritten after I unzip and copy or move the latest version to the folder? Should I have also deleted the files in the user app data folder before updating?-bob99 (January 12, 2011, 08:25 PM)
I noticed on my XP this morning that even after updating it had still remembered some favorites I had chosen during my random selections with the previous version. Ver 0.1.2b didn't attempt to create the database file like the 1st installation did.-bob99 (January 12, 2011, 08:25 PM)
@tranglos
How do I flush the 'History' listing? I tried to manipulate the ethervaneradio-config.ini file by changin the HistorySpan=o but ER still shows a list of radio stations under the 'History' tab. I also changed HistoryMaintain to false but no help there either, the list is still there.-PhilB66 (January 12, 2011, 09:25 PM)
DELETE FROM [history];and hit F9. This will clear the contents of the history table.
[EthervaneRadio.HistoryMenuOptions]
MaxMenuItemCount=0
This is outstanding.

Just wanted to give my heartfelt thanks for a fabulous little piece of software.
Living near the flood stricken region of SE QLD Australia I found myself safe but without phone, TV, radio or mobile phone reception yet amazing still had internet connection.
Your program enabled me to tune into the local and regional radio stations and get the latest news, and updates on the flood and road closures.
Thank you! :Thmbsup:-iebbed (January 16, 2011, 06:07 PM)

tango argentina- Ethervane Radio will find all stations which contain BOTH terms. This is the same as typing:
tango AND argentina- Phrases must be enclosed in double quotes:
jazz AND "united states"- AND is the default conjunction (operator), but you can also use OR and NOT, as well as parentheses:
( tango OR salsa ) AND ( argentina OR brazil )- Wildcards can be used anywhere in the search terms. For example, if you are not sure whether to spell "Brasil" or "Brazil", enter:
tango AND NOT argentina
bra?ilOr, if you don't want to spell a long name, you can say
tango and arg*- All terms entered as described above will be found in ALL station fields (name, genre, country, region, network, website, tagline, etc.). However, you can also specify that a term must occur in a specific field. To do that, use the full or abbreviated name of a field, followed by colon, followed by the text you are looking for. To find stations from France:
country:Franceor even (using a wildcard)
cou:France
c:France
c:Fr*
city:"New York"
genre:jazz genre:chilloutThis, however, will work as expected:
genre:jazz OR genre:chillout
g:jazzHowever, this will not find stations where genre is "smooth jazz" (or "jazz, smooth"). You can manually add wildcards to find those:
g:*jazz*If "Automatic wildcards" is turned ON, the program will always automatically wrap your search terms in wildcards, so that searching for "jazz" is the same as searching for "*jazz*". This applies to ADVANCED mode only. (In BASIC mode terms are always wrapped in wildcards).
P.S. in what language is this written?-DeVamp (April 14, 2011, 06:42 AM)

If so I would like to offer a suggestion about AAC streams.
I have a low bandwidth impairment and usually listen to 40-48k AAC streams because they tend to not stutter every 5 minutes. My request would be a separation or indication of AAC streams, stream rate would be handy also. I am sure other people would benefit also from these additions.
