Preview Build Discussion / Unable to get WACUP to properly add OR play an entire folder of music

« on: June 13, 2020, 06:47:25 AM »

I decided to try listening to the artist discography for Five Finger Death Punch.

So, I first right-click on the playlist editor in window-shade mode, hover on "play", then left-click "folder". I navigate to the folder where the music is that I want to play. After I've selected the folder, I click "OK" in the open folder window. For some reason, it brings up the "open file(s)" window, which I don't want, because I want to play an entire folder of music.

Then, I try putting the playlist editor in normal mode. I click on "add", then "folder". I select the folder I want, then click on "OK". The "add folder" window disappears, but the songs don't play.

I'm guessing that neither situation is supposed to play out the way it does. So, just thought I'd let you know.

Resolved Issues / [FIXED] A problem with the newest version (1.0.12.5500)

Apparently, an issue I forgot to mention in the other thread (my apologies for the inconvenience) is that, when I have a bunch of songs loaded in the Playlist Editor, if I execute the "Previous track" feature twice fairly fast through either the keyboard shortcut (as in pressing the keyboard key to go back to a previous track twice within one second) or through the program's main window (as in clicking the "Prevous" button twice within one second), the program will skip past the last song loaded in the Playlist Editor and go to the second-to-last song.

I don't know if that action was something that was intended to be, or if it's something that was missed when the program was being developed. Regardless, just figured I'd let you know about this one as well.

Resolved Issues / [FIXED] problem w/the Playlist Editor for the latest preview build (1.0.11.5456)

« on: May 02, 2020, 10:57:16 AM »

OK, so, back when I was using the most recent stable version of WinAmp (5.666) before I switched to using WACUP, then after switching to WACUP, using the previous preview build for WACUP (1.0.11.5454), whenever I would 1) right-click on the Playlist Editor when it was in windowshade mode, 2) select "Play",  3) select "File", 4) select more than one audio file and, 5) click on the "Open" button in the open file(s) window, the Playlist Editor would load whatever audio files I had selected and begin playing them.

Well, after downloading the installer for the latest preview build, then doing an upgrade installation for WACUP to the latest build (in other words, installing the latest version over the prior one), when I now execute the above instructions for playing audio files, all the Playlist Editor does is show the name of the folder that the multiple audio files are in; it doesn't even play any of the files.
However, if I select a single audio file (rather than selecting multiple ones) when I execute the above instructions, the Playlist Editor loads the song and plays it.

The only way now I can get the Playlist Editor to load & play audio files is if, during my execution of the above instructions, I select "Folder" instead of file, then select the folder that contains the audio files I want to play, then select "OK" and wait for the Playlist Editor to load and then play the files.

Is the new version supposed to be this way? Or, during the changes made from the previous version, did the developers (maybe accidentally?) change some sort of code that now prevents me from loading and playing audio files the way I used to?

Edit: Oh, and another problem that's popped up for me as well: when I use the fade-out feature on a song in the latest build, in windowshade mode, the Playlist Editor registers the song as having been paused; it's only when I actually use the stop feature on a song (again in windowshade mode) that the song completely stops playing.
