Looks great to me!

yes, the new gui looks spiffy..

skwire · « **Reply #477 on:** February 03, 2010, 08:53 AM »

I suppose I ought to get to actually coding it, eh?

skwire · « **Reply #478 on:** February 04, 2010, 05:21 PM »

v1.0.4 build 1 - 2010-02-04 * Revamped Trout's upper GUI. (Thanks, Lesmo16) 1) Larger, multi-line title text area. Right-clicking on this area will allow you to copy the text to your clipboard. 2) Larger album art. 3) Volume control moved horizontally under the control buttons. + Under Tools, Options, String formatting tab, you can now preview any and all formatting changes easily.

Hopefully, I didn't break anything. =] However, if I did, you can download the older version here:

~~http://skwire.dcmembers.com/apps/trout/trout_setup_old.exe~~

Here's how the new changes turned out.

Hi skwire
Maybe a bug under Tools\Options\Audio notification on new track\Enable--TTS $title as token

On playing new song it gives the last song played.

Thank you, nogojoe. =]

v1.0.4 build 2 - 2010-02-04 ! Text-To-Speech was announcing the wrong track. (Thanks, nogojoe)

An old issue here - apologies if I repeat myself: since I disabled second monitor in Display Properties (doesn't exist physically anymore), Trout's main window remained at coordinates outside the now only monitor. The Options window also opens at old coordinates, far from reach.
Would it possible to add code that checks if saved window position matches the virtual screen boundaries and if not, move it somewhere inside? I know it's easy to edit the config file, but for the sake of professionalism...

Also, after I made the corrections, I noticed the recent changes do not apply correctly on my Win98SE machine: the seekbar overlaps the info window and the volume gets overlapped by the latter; most likely you forgot to apply the changes to the Win9x part of the respective controls.

Have you thought again about making the info area a RichEdit control? I've tested the cRichEdit wrapper some time ago and it works fine in 9x - I've even posted a test script at the AHK forums, in the BASS thread [link]; should work without problems in XP+ too, I guess...

Thanks for keeping it up!

v1.0.4 build 6 - 2010-02-20 ! Fixed graphical screwups under Win9x that were introduced in version 1.0.4 build 1. (Thanks, Drugwash)

Doh! I actually DID have this adjusted under Win9x but I must've reverted those changes before compiling the build. They should be fixed in the above version. Sorry about that.

Extremely unlikely that this will happen.

v1.0.4 build 15 - 2010-03-06 ! Fixed some 120 DPI graphical issues. (Thanks, TT1)

Drugwash · « **Reply #484 on:** March 18, 2010, 09:53 AM »

Thank you for the 9x fix and apologies for late reply - still no Internet connection where I moved to .

Oh and ... Happy belated Birthday!

You're welcome and thanks. =]

DeVamp · « **Reply #486 on:** March 18, 2010, 11:57 AM »

Recently i've come across a "bug".

If "allow internet access" is not checked, but "Enable last.fm support" is checked and credentials are entered, it still connects to last.fm when closing the options screen.
Even when it says <<"Allow internet access" must be enabled >> on the last.fm tab

Just a minor thing, because trout is unresponsive unless it times out probably, but keeps playing :-)

skwire · « **Reply #487 on:** March 18, 2010, 12:07 PM »

Ah...good catch. I'll look into that. Thanks.

skwire · « **Reply #488 on:** March 19, 2010, 10:51 PM »

v1.0.4 build 18 - 2010-03-19 ! Lyrics window wasn't reporting properly when no results were found. ! Some of the Last.fm feature weren't obeying the 'Allow internet access' settings. (Thanks, DeVamp)

Very nice player

Are there any plans for an equalizer ? It sounds nice and clean overall but it would be nice. Nice work

I'll be using this as my audio player for awhile thx.

Oh yeah I found it at http://www.softpedia.com/get/Multimedia/Audio/Audio-Players/Trout-Skwire.shtml

I sent them an updated link for the latest build.

Thanks for the kind words. As for an EQ, it's been on the ToDo since the start but I just haven't gotten around to adding my test code into the main code. If I do add one, it'll be a very simple one...maybe five bands or so. Definitely not a huge EQ since I'm not fond of the CPU hit that they bring.

Thanks, again. They've been methodically adding all my apps over the past few weeks. http://www.softpedia.com/developer/Skwire-Empire-65728.html

Np

Sweet a 5 band would be perfect I'm not a big fan of big EQ's either.If they are more than 5 it seems like you have to mess with them a lot and you never really get a decent sound.I used Jaangle for awhile which is a 3 band I think.Decent player along with Foobar as my main music app. but I'm liking yours a lot

You have a lot of good features that so many players lack.Global keys are huge if you play PC games and I like the way it removes the track from the playlist after you play it

Thx for the quick reply.

Lesmo16 · « **Reply #492 on:** April 05, 2010, 11:19 AM »

Skwire, please have another look at the diplay of the $year tag.
It seems to work porperly for ID3v2.3 but not for ID3v2.4 type.

Solution: ID3v2.3 uses TYER but ID3v2.4 uses TDRC frame.
Perhaps Trout could look for both frames and then display the right one?

skwire · « **Reply #493 on:** April 05, 2010, 11:49 AM »

v1.0.4 build 19 - 2010-04-05 ! ID3v2.4 year tags weren't being read properly. (Thanks, Lesmo16)

Just a heads up: AVG Free just flagged trout.exe as being a threat (some generic downloader). It gave me this link for more information:

http://free.avg.com/us-en/virus-encyclopedia?IDN=MGIxY2Q5Zjc2Njc1NTAwMA

Is it just me or is this link worthless? It just takes me to the Virus Encyclopedia search page but doesn't actually perform a search or tell me what I should be searching for to get more information.

skwire · « **Reply #496 on:** April 07, 2010, 09:32 AM »

That's just great.

Now AVG is flagging executables even when they're not UPX-packed...

skwire · « **Reply #497 on:** April 07, 2010, 09:38 AM »

FWIW, I just scanned Trout via the VirusTotal website:

v1.0.4 build 27 - 2010-04-16 + Added ability to easily go back to the last manual seektime performed. Access this feature via the List menu or by right-clicking the seekbar itself. (Thanks, mouser)
