Resolved Issues / Re: error when updating

« on: November 20, 2019, 06:52:46 AM »

I've a hunch that this was related to the previous issue I had where WACUP wouldn't load sometimes - I can report that that issue has gone away since the device replacement, and given than I'm confident that the updating issues will be resolved as well. Seems like there was something crappy going on in the old machine - I should have tried that windows reset thing but hey, it died anyway so oh well.

Well, I've no idea what was locking it - the only AV on there was the windows default one and there wasn't any other file access type watchdog on there, but that machine died last week, so... let's see how it goes on the new one.

It gets restarted every day, not sure what process would affect it.

I just launched it again and it generated a crash log that I've sent off.

Twice now I've had issues when auto-updating WACUP, the first time I just uninstalled it and did a fresh install of the new build, now it's happening again. It's worked fine on one PC, but on this one not so much. I'm a local admin (and the only user) on both machines and they're both running Windows 10 at the same patch level.

Basically it says that there's an access error trying to write to winamp.exe. Last time I renamed it and it went further, but complained about a couple of other files instead. It's installed in the default installation folder.

Big Bento Modern, and to the title ticker in to the windowshade mode. It does work if I expand the window and drag the folder into the playlist, but that's less useful. It always used to work with the windowshade dragging, now it clears out the existing playlist but doesn't add the new stuff, it just says Winamp 5.666 Build 3516.

Resolved Issues / FIXED] new preview build feedback - drag+drop of a folder on main window fails

« on: August 27, 2019, 04:04:52 AM »

Hi, got the new preview build installed. So far this one has started every time I've launched it, so that's a good start. I have noticed however that I can't drag folders into it anymore to have it play everything in that folder. That worked on the old build. Now I have to open that folder, select everything and drag it in that way - not too big of a deal, but being able to just drag a folder was a nice quality of life option.

I'm happy to run a debug build for a time if you would like more data on it, just let me know! In the mean time I'll continue with launching it as admin when necessary.

@Deacon: I've split your new posts into a thread that I've moved into the beta discussion forum due to some of the data that's been posted.

@pimento: that's interesting if it's better later in the day. though can you have a look in the system event viewer & see if there's any winamp/wacup reported errors (I've a feeling that what Deacon has posted before I split the posts might be the same sort of cause of issue).

Sorry, I explained badly, it's more likely to not open later in the day. I just tried it now and it's failing to open, I had thought perhaps it was related to being docked but I'm on a work trip so no dock here. Anyway, the first time it started the two background tasks as usual and didn't load, I killed them and tried again, that time it didn't even load the tasks but I got two entries in the Application log (nothing in the system log) and then I tried again and it was back to the two background tasks and nothing else. I've attached the details from the two events here.

In my case I don't have any AV outside of what's built into windows 10. At this stage I can't think of any additional factors that might be affecting things, outside of perhaps being that it's more likely to happen if I don't open WACUP up until much later in the day.

This also happens when I run WACUP from the start menu, and at the moment it's happening every time I try to launch it - is there any debugs or something I can take for you before I try a restart?

It's doing it again with the latest public build. WACUP and Winamp (32 bit) are running as backgound tasks in the task manager, but there's no tray icon or window appearing. If I end task on WACUP and Winamp and try starting again (via Start Menu shortcut) it does the same thing, just those two processes starting (not using any CPU or anything) but no program appearing.

If I doubleclick an MP3 file, I get another instance of WACUP starting under background tasks, but still nothing appearing or playing.

Oh.. I tried to open an album's worth of MP3s (select all, right click, Open) and now I have a while pile more WACUP and Winamp instances running there..
