The last part of my prior reply is probably the better option to ensure you get the install separation needed.

This is the part you refer to ...

Otherwise make a portable install using the installer & that'll give you the equivalent & you can run as many portable installs as you want to.

... correct?

I want to use the 2nd instance for some very lengthy media (a/v lectures, tutorials, seminars, etc.) that need to be paused at end-of-day pc power off and have the paused locations restored at the next pc power-up.

You can run multiple beta instances like you can do with the preview build (would be a bit silly to restrict that in betas but not preview builds ).

OK - well, when I tried to invoke a new instance nothing happened. I then reasoned that perhaps there is a box or something in the options dialogue that needs to be checked. In Main Menu > Options > Preferences > General > I saw a unchecked box labeled "Allow multiple instances (this can cause data corruption)", checked it and closed the dialogue. The attached image of a popup appeared. I was in no mood for taking this 'leap' and cliked "No".

If there is another way, I am all ears. Maybe doing a separate beta install in another directory (is this what the popup suggestion refers to and is it safe?)? I will defer to your advice.

It has been awhile but when I need 2 media players to run at once, in addition to WACUP, I will fire up my original Winamp5.666 install. I have stopped using WACUP's preview build because there are too many fixes to it in the beta version and I exclusively use the beta. I know not if it can run more than one beta instance. Anyways, as I said, I fired up the 5.666 and the attached image popped up.

Just curious and I did dismiss it.

With all the mp4 discussion of late and not having played videos via this player since this topic was discussed, thought I would give it a go today with today's beta release. The issue looks to be resolved now. Thank you!

General Discussion / Stereo/Surround Sim?

« on: August 03, 2022, 10:27:38 PM »

Sorry if obvious, but does WACUP have a built-in stereo and/or surround sound simulator to enhance mono sources? Or maybe a plugin I not aware of? -thx

Big Clock has had Alt+B added for it & Waveform Seeker has had Alt+R added for it in the pending next beta build. Will mark this as implemented.

here I go again getting all twisted. The screen capture above was from a topic regarding a rare anomaly with non-stream type playback. Since the seeker does not support streaming, I should make clear that this topic is for the seeker to support it and perhaps the 'moving' fill can somehow get hooked to the elapsed time graphically. I know not if the current seeker can easily be enhanced and if not perhaps a new one created?
(I have updated the op with a, hopefully, more appropriate title)

Wishlist / Feature Requests / Waveform Seeker for Streaming

« on: June 20, 2022, 09:26:22 PM »

Because the thread was closed ('Resolved') I supplied a screen capture of a portion relative to this. I agree with Aminifu in that I too desire a 'fill'.
-thx

ok - so the lack of clarity and mention of Waveform Seeker/Big Clock looks to have veered the op off-course. Steering it back to the 'intent' of the op ...

 I would like to be able to define a key or key-combo (my keyboard has a section of user-programmable keys fwiw) that when pressed activates 2 or more windows. e.g. I press a key/key-combo and Album Art and Media Library open. I press another key and they close. As I have used these 2 as examples I would desire this for any of the standard-issue WACUP windows. I have done something similar to this request. I have a key that invokes a shortcut which points to a batch file that contains code that turns on the internet as well a several internet-dependent Rainmeter skins simultaneously and another key/shortcut/batch that turns them off. Therefore, I believe my need would be for a command line that accomplishes the activation/deactivation of both (or more) of these WACUP windows.

(man, another wordy post that I pray is clear)

off topic : from my long-time association here it seems that modern skins 'appear' responsible for more 'pain' than 'fun'. My mind plays with the question would this product be damn-near finished (if not actually finished altogether) if it was strictly 'classic'?
