Preview Build Discussion / 1.99.53.24784 (x86) - No playback with "Not So Direct v1.15"

« Last post by sinner on Today at 08:31:21 AM »

Environment
WACUP 1.99.53.24784 (x86), post-release updates applied
Windows 11 25H2
Skin: Big Bento Modern

Problem
With "Not So Direct v1.15" configured as the output plugin (DirectSound configuration: primary sound driver), playback produces no audio at all. Instead, WACUP races through the entire playlist within a few seconds, each track is treated as finished immediately and the next one starts. No error message is shown.
The same behaviour occurs when routing through Not So Neo → Not So Direct.

Working configurations
Other output plugins (YASAPI, Wavery) play back normally, so the issue appears to be specific to Not So Direct.

I think I was on v1.99.52 before updating.

Sorry, I thought this was the same problem.
I will create a new thread.

If the portable install works & the other when updated to use the same version doesn't then it's most likely an odd config problem since the skin shouldn't matter especially if set to a classic one. Other than bundling up the broken installs main set of config files so I can have a look at them I'd rename the winamp.ini to something else & then run it again to see what that does (it'll reset most settings & window positions but is the simplest way to see if it's likely the main config file at fault).

Really this should have been it's own thread as what was reported was to do with a different output plug-in.

There aren't any post release updates related to the notsodirect output plug-in with the build shown. I could also do with knowing the build type & what skin is being used. As under classic skins it may give a reason for the failure in the main window song ticker text. I'd also recheck what the output plug-in prefs page is showing as selected to be used from the dropdown & that there's no errors mentioned. Also if you're trying to use a specific output device or what's set as the OS default device.

I installed the post update and I am on 1.99.53.24784 now, "Not So Direct v1.15" is not working.
It silently skips all songs.

Thank for confirming the sort of workaround works & should save you having to reset it every time.

$char(32) works! It is now saving the preference correctly! Thanks!

The preview box showing text is wrong so that's now fixed for the next build. Otherwise the action is working correctly against what I'd tried to do vs the original behaviour so it'll leave what's in the file as was last set when playback stops instead of clearing it (maybe that needs to be a dedicated mode possibly via another options from the dropdown assuming it actually makes sense to implement that).

A space character not being maintained is due to the handling stripping off whitespace characters when the formatting strings are processed. The simplest way to ensure you will have a space / effectively empty output no matter is to use $char(32) as the formatting string. You could also use $crlf() which just outputs a linebreak & should still do the same as the $char mode.

Also I've only checked this against the current (as of this reply) 1.99.53.24784 build.

Wishlist / Feature Requests / [CHANGES MADE] Play Tracking Preference Not Saving

« Last post by umihimeyokai on August 09, 2026, 12:35:46 AM »

In v1.99.52.24626

Under preferences>Playback>Play Tracking

The Now Playing Tab

The Last field where it says "The following field can be used to specify output when playback stops. If left empty nothing will be output when playback stops. If left empty nothing will be output when playback stops."

Two minor bugs.
1. If box left empty, behavior of text box is left as default when playback stops instead of being empty. Which is probably preferable behavior, but just doesn't match instructions for field.

2. Field doesn't save preference when populated in at least some cases between sessions of WACUP. In my use case, I type a space in the field so that it displays no visible characters when sourced in OBS. Workaround has been to simply retype the space in this field every time I open up a session. Not a big deal, in fact I keep forgetting to mention it. But I finally remembered to give a heads up lol

Version 1.1 is released today with the following changes:

• Drawer properties are now mostly defined in xml without the need to recompile maki.
• Windows now snap to the bottom of the player when the drawer is in, and to the bottom of the drawer when it is out.
