Preview Build Discussion / Re: bugs in version 1.99.45.23528

I think i know what's happening, the lyrics plugin is too slow, it can't keep up if you change songs in a rapid succession, so it starts showing the incorrect lyrics (also in succession)  until it finally catches up to the song you're actually listening to...

hi! thanks for the reply.

For issue no.1, i'm using the default lyrics plugin and that option is checked. Another way to get the lyrics is just clicking once on the song (this way you don't have to start the song over). Looks like when the song changes or you press "next", somehow the focus is lost and the song playing is not selected on the playlist. in a very strange twist, now it's somewhat working (the lyrics change), but after clicking "next" a few times, it starts showing the lyrics for the previous song you were listening to, insted of the current one...
What skin i'm using? an old one for winamp 2.x. Maybe i'll change the skin and see if the bug persists.

as for #2, glad you could figure it out.

I can't wait for the next preview.
cheers!

What are you going on about? m3u8 is just the m3u playlist file format using utf-8 encoding with a different file extension to give programs a potential hint of the encoding that is in no way limited to VLC. Nor is there anything stopping someone from saving such playlist files with the m3u extension (letting the program loading it figure it out) or just naming it using "my_super_spiffy_extension".

Keep in mind that *.m3u8 is reserved to VLC video player - the most distributed video player - on many PCs.
Better use the traditional extensions m3u & pls for audio playlists.

I never use Winamp for videos.

#1, I can't replicate it not updating so is that with the lyrics plug-in wacup provides (if so what skin is being used) or is it one of the 3rd party plug-ins? If it's the one provided with wacup have you changed it to show what's selected in the playlist as that's the only way I can get it to seem like it's not behaving vs forgetting something was selected at the time.

As for the quality of the lyrics there's little I can do with my solution when there's barely any free options available to try to obtain such information online (assuming that it's also not incorrect within the file(s) being accessed as using the local copy is prioritised where possible).

#2, I can replicate but only on the first action after loading that playlist & I still need to look into what's going on to cause it.

[edit] The sorting issue is due to a workaround in place to deal with interacting with the classic skin playlist editor buttons which puts it into a wrong state when the double-click is attempted whereby it doesn't try to determine the item that's being interacted with. It's also possible to trigger playback of the current item when double-clicking in some of the dead space within the playlist window so both of those issues should now be fixed for what'll become the next preview build.

I thought I'd added it to that but seems not with the filename so that'll need to be added in a later build.

The filter selection is coded to be remembered but it looks like when I changed to use m3u8 as the default instead of m3u years back now I messed up the checking to avoid it saving out non-default values which broke it for remembering m3u as the filter selection (m3u8 & pls are being remembered correctly from my re-testing).

Thank you for confirming. I've had a quick look & it seems that a workaround to resolve a WINE related issue when the size of the list contents changes is being incorrectly applied which is causing it to scroll back to the first item of the list. Will look to get that fixed for the next build as it's able to affect any of the list instances be it library playlists or the local library views for example.

Yes. As mentioned above, it happens after I edit a playlist entry. I right-click on an entry, choose "Playlist entry," make my edit to the title or the link, hit OK, then I'm jumped to the top of the playlist. If I scroll down to the entry I was editing, it's still highlighted. I just don't want to be jumped to the top of the playlist after editing.
