It first occurred after playing through a bunch of 6 and 7 second tracks, and again after I skipped around to several different tracks in quick succession. Both times, refreshing the fade skin got it unstuck.
Seems like it's a problem with the skin. Edit the skin and change

Code: Select all

Formula=mFader + 1
to

Code: Select all

Formula=Counter % 6
Then save and refresh.

Thanks. The file you sent works fine here, but there is a limitation with files (corrupted tags/unsupported format) will not display album name with Winamp.

This change appears to prevent the skin from fading.


I've just updated to the latest beta, downloaded Soita, and installed the version of the foobar plugin linked from the NowPlaying page (in case there were any changes). I like the refinements you made for Soita. Very nice. :thumbup:


A million thanks for making this happen, poiru! As a foobar user, it's like coming out of the dark ages after dealing with foo_winamp_spam, http_control, foo_vis_shpeck, etc. NowPlaying rocks! :party:

Great plugin! Have you thought about also adding MusicBee (http://getmusicbee.com/) support. It's a great actively developed music player and manager. The creator is a friendly and outgoing guy in case you might have some issues. Still, that's just a suggestion :oops: But it's really a great player deserving the plugin support.

It seems that MusicBee comes by default with the 'cd art display' plugin for it to work with the CD Art Display application. I'll implement the CD Art Display API, which'll allow NowPlaying to 'fake' that it's CD Art Display, and, thus, work with MusicBee.

Done. MusicBee will be supported in the next beta release :)

This is the song that never ends. It just goes on and on my friends. Some people started singing it not knowing what it was, and they'll continue singing it forever just because . . .

I'll see what I can do about the fade skin.
