Latest restricted WACUP beta release is build #18980 (April 24th 2024) (x86 & x64 changelogs) | Latest WACUP public preview is build #18980 (April 24th 2024) (x86 only)


NOTE: Beta testers are added in a limited & subjective manner as I can only support so many people as part of the beta test program to keep it useful for my needs.

Unless I think you're going to be helpful, not all requests will be accepted but might still be later on. Remember that beta testing is to help me & the limitations currently works for my needs for this project.

That action hasn't had any control over the behaviour used nor has WACUP's handling of it changed in a long time so here's what is coded.

If you use the action from the right-click menu or the open action in the main window then it treats it as a play action which'll clear the existing playlist & start playing be it the first item or the first one in the generated shuffle table. That's also why those actions are named / placed where they are.

If you use the add folder option from the playlist editor then that will treat it as an enqueue event & won't change what's playing.

Maybe that menu block could be changed to follow the media library default action (play/enqueue/enqueue & play) with it updating the text for the root of the menu item to then have it contextually be correct.

Using files correctly tagged with albumartist is the preferred option. Alternatively going to preferences -> media library -> local library -> unchecking "Use Album Artist when grouping the Album & Albumart filter results" might in some cases group things in a more expected manner depending on what metadata has been found from the files to start with.

I tag my songs the way MarkRH suggests. I also enable all the filter options on the Preferences Media Library-Local Library-Options tab, except the "Ignore the The ..." and "Use limited associative ..." options. This works pretty well for me.

Someone can correct me if I'm wrong but WACUP groups an album by the Album Artist and Album Title.  If it's some kind of compilation album where each track might be a different artist then what you might need to do is tag each track with an Album Artist of Various Artists and Artist as the particular track artist. 

Right now I'm playing this Woman Trance Voices Vol. 9 album where I made the Album Artist "Woman Trance Voices" and this particular track has an Artist of "Bobina & Betsie Larkin".
Hopefully that makes sense.

I am a new Wacup user and was wondering if there was any way to stop wacup from splitting an album by artist. I can send a screenshot if needed but the folder is not split like it is in Wacup.

Main Menu > Play > Folder

I select a folder, clik OK - folder loads and 1st track begins to play. Forget where I set it so it does not begin to play (until I decide to clik the player's 'play' button). Desire same with play a file. -thx
OK - I now realize this post should be in the 'General' forum. Also, I have been looking extensively in Main Menu > Options > Preferences and still no joy. Perhaps there is no utility/settings for this. If so, I request the admin to move this topic to the 'Wishlist/Feature Requests' forum.


-thank you

Using either of the DSP plug-ins shouldn't make a difference to the behaviour about staying awake or not as it's the playback state which determines things & not the DSP which is just part of the input -> output chain going on.
