I recall this being long-standing AHK issue.  I'm trying to find some older AHK forum threads that discuss this.

also how about a hi-res icon for the alt-tab view instead of the current one (see pic). :)
Hehe, I thought about mentioning that too. :D
Thank you.

new request:
when you exit trout and then restart it, it would be nice if it remembered the last selected/playing song.

this is a cool feature that works even in 'paused' mode. :up: that way you can pause before exiting so that you don't get startled by the music the next time Trout is started.

No, I meant the alt-tab icon issue (which I believe I have fixed).

v1.0.2 build 220
    + When the minibars have focus, the wheelmouse will control volume.  [Thanks, Deozaan]
    + Double-clicking the album art now brings it up in your system's default viewer.
      [Thanks, none exist]
    + Added "Show toaster popup after resuming from a pause state" option under Options,
      Toaster dialog.  [Thanks, Deozaan]
    * Changed up the album art logic slightly to better handle newly added folder.jpg files.
      [Thanks, drugwash]
    * Rearranged the Options, General dialog to accomodate future settings.
    * The Last.fm "Love Track" button is now an option under the Options, Last.fm dialog.
      [Thanks, Deozaan]
    ! Fixed Trout's alt-tab icon to use the proper size.  [Thanks, lanux128]
    ! Fixed (hopefully) the tracks-playing-out-of-order issue.  [Thanks, drugwash]
    ! Fixed a tray icon issue where it wouldn't show if the user didn't have "Always show
      tray icon" checked but DID have "Minimize to tray on startup" checked.  [Thanks, Deozaan]

Small feature request:

(optional) Clicking on the toaster popup will immediately get rid of it.

Two issues with the scrollbars which nobody has remarked so far, maybe it only happens on my pc.

When I click on the scrollbar slider the listview colors get inverted. Also if I press on scrollbar to move quicker throughout the listview content and release the mouse the slider keeps displacing on its own until I move the mouse off the scrollbar.

Does this happen EVERY time?  Can you provide a screenshot, please?

v1.0.2 build 236
    + Added "Enable/disable Last.fm" to the playlist's Last.fm context menu.
    + Added Last.fm icon to the statusbar.  Single-clicking on it will toggle between a red
      icon (Last.fm enabled) and a grey icon (Last.fm disabled).  Right-clicking it will
      bring up the same Last.fm menu as above.
    + Added an option for a configurable number of seconds to rewind when resuming from
      a pause state.  Leave it set at zero (0) to turn it off.  [Thanks, brotherS]

I updated to the latest edition and now "Do not show Toaster when Main Window is Active" will not stay selected in my options. That is, it remains checked until I press the OK button in the Options. But when I open the options up again, the option is unchecked.

But anyway good luck to on the project and have fun  :D  :Thmbsup:

Edit: ps. Good search is the heart of the player to me

Well, I have never intended for Trout to be used with anything close to that amount of files.  I was simply using it as a stress test for my search code.

even though the search looks and feels awesome I would prefer something more convenient and quick  :-[
I'm not sure how how I can make it any more convenient.  I mean, you can set up a local and/or global hotkeys for the search window to pop it up, type a quick search, select a track and play it (all without seeing the main Trout window).  What did you have in mind?
