After reading the post above yours (and maybe even before) I assumed so much...... it would mean way less clicking for all of us who want the newest version!-brotherS (February 23, 2009, 04:12 AM)
a just in case post:-
do you know you can use dcupdater and then update via menu/about ?-tomos (February 23, 2009, 09:19 AM)
if not, search the thread: the setup details are in there somewhere...that's what I feared, so I didn't yet try to hunt them down.-tomos (February 23, 2009, 09:19 AM)
Oh, that's related? Didn't think of that... ok, will have to live with it then.Found 2 more small bugs:I don't experience much flicker at all in the seekbar text. Now, if I add the $time_e/$time_r to the titlebar text, I see flicker (but I warned about this). I'm not sure I can do too much about this.
- when you use the mouse on the seek bar, the displayed time flickers - looks like it tries to update itself too often.-brotherS (February 23, 2009, 04:12 AM)-skwire (February 23, 2009, 05:00 AM)
Only if he adds the installer link to every post where he announces a new version.It would help if you could add the installer link to your signaturebetter to include a link to the trout thread.-mouser (February 23, 2009, 04:16 AM)
Build 154 has your play button in it. I believe this is what you were thinking of.Thanks, perfect!!-skwire (February 23, 2009, 03:39 AM)
v1.0.2 build 153Thanks for adding that feature! Two improvement suggestions:
+ Added a "Play track/beep between tracks" options. This is mainly for listening to audio
books so you can be alerted to chapter changes, etc. You set the options under Options,
General and toggle the functionality using the List menu entry. [Thanks, brotherS & mouser]
Works now, thanks!And another small thing: when the "TE" (elapsed) time is smaller than the set "seek jump interval", Trout will not always jump back to the beginning of the file when that hotkey is used once.Try the latest build (v1.0.2.150)
That's annoying me a bit more today, I hope it's easy to fix!-brotherS (February 21, 2009, 04:14 AM)-skwire (February 22, 2009, 01:39 PM)
Now clicking programs works again, they just still all have the xmplay icon. Not sure if that could be fixed easily too?Thankfully, the "all exe icons are incorrect" problem fixed itself just now when I installed a totally not related program, and I didn't even have to reboot since the problem showed up! No idea why or how, but I like THAT it's fixed.-brotherS (February 19, 2009, 04:26 AM)
+ Added a "Remove track after playback" option to the View menu. This will make Trout actYes, thanks app, and thanks skwire for adding it! I can see this might come in handy.
in a sort of queue mode. [Thanks, app103]-skwire (February 22, 2009, 09:48 AM)
! The $time_r/$time_e tokens now update in realtime. Putting those tokens in the titlebarExcellenct! The counter behaves a bit erratic in the first seconds of a file, but doesn't flicker here.
string may result in flickering. [Thanks, brotherS]-skwire (February 22, 2009, 09:48 AM)

v1.0.2 build 146That doesn't work here. Maybe related to the "Error saving list contents!" error that I get? When I'm moving around files in program directories I sometimes get a message from Vista that I need administrator rights (which I have) to do that.
+ Column orders are now saved. [Thanks, app103]-skwire (February 20, 2009, 07:28 PM)
The rewind/ff with a file being paused now works, thanks!This is not working when I rewind or fast forward with a keyboard shortcut, only with the mouse. I'd like a 'live' update like in xmplay.Re-download and try the latest build. I think it'll act like you're expecting it to. As for the status bar font, it can be done. However, the problem is that the statusbar itself won't resize vertically to fit. Question, are you running at a DPI of something other than the default of 96...120, perhaps?
Also, would it be possible to set a custom font (size) for the statusbar?-brotherS (February 19, 2009, 04:59 AM)-skwire (February 19, 2009, 08:20 AM)
You are right. Yes.Another idea: how about a 'roger beep' that makes you realize that Trout jumped to another file in the playlist? Maybe I'm the only one ever missing something like that, I don't know.I'm guessing that the balloon tip notify or toaster popup don't serve you well in this case? You prefer something audible rather than visual?
Reason why: when I listen to audio books - while not looking at the PC - I like to know when I reached a new file, either for note-taking or to use that to pause listening and to resume at the beginning of a file later.-brotherS (February 19, 2009, 05:16 AM)-skwire (February 19, 2009, 08:20 AM)
Here are your requests, brotherS:Thanks, excellent!
+ Added an option to specify the seek jump interval in seconds. Default is a jump of
one second. Tools, Options, Miscellaneous section. [Thanks, brotherS]-skwire (February 18, 2009, 10:01 PM)
* The statusbar track times (TE: & TR:) now update while a track is paused. [Thanks, brotherS]This is not working when I rewind or fast forward with a keyboard shortcut, only with the mouse. I'd like a 'live' update like in xmplay.-skwire (February 18, 2009, 10:01 PM)
WinHelpOnline have a fix for Vista here. It's simply that XMPlay thought for some reason that it could play .exe files and when you told it to associate itself with the formats it could play, it overwrote the .exe association, a very well know flaw in Windows.Oh, wow, I never heard about something like that happening.
Hope this helps, Ehtyar.-Ehtyar (February 19, 2009, 04:05 AM)

Your script works perfectly for me with Trout.Hmmm...that's odd. I have a similar keyboard move script and it works fine. If you want to PM me your script code, I can try it out on my systems.Will do!-skwire (February 18, 2009, 10:13 AM)-brotherS (February 18, 2009, 10:24 AM)-skwire (February 18, 2009, 10:38 AM)
Yes, the tooltip is helpful, but it only shows up when I use the mouse, not when I use a hotkey.Sure.
Last but not least, I would like a hotkey to skip back or forth a few (definable?) seconds. I'm used to that from players like mp3DirectCut and xmplay. Do you feel like adding that?-brotherS (February 18, 2009, 10:24 AM)-skwire (February 18, 2009, 10:38 AM)
Edit: I found that I can only move the Trout window with the mouse, not with the Windows key + Cursor keys (AHK script), which works for virtually all other programs I use. Any idea why?Hmmm...that's odd. I have a similar keyboard move script and it works fine.

I also saw that the "TE" and "TR" track info (your position in the file) is not updated while a file is paused, you can rewind or fast forward, but only when you resume the file it's being updated. Nothing big, just mentioning it.Yes, the times only update if the track is playing but I should be able to change this. In the meantime, the tooltip should show the current time you're dragging to even if a track is paused. Thanks for the feedback.-brotherS (February 18, 2009, 09:22 AM)-skwire (February 18, 2009, 10:13 AM)
