0.2.8 released, updating is strongly recommended as this fixes a rare crash bug when drawing detects a lost device.
Stay sane, exile.

The 0.2.9 release is dedicated to all the idiots that consider themselves more competent at installing the DirectX runtime than the redist installer.
If you've been manually copying in d3dxN_NN.dll files, don't do that. That's bloody retarded and will lead to glorious explosions. Use the redist like everyone else, gaaaah.

*breathes*
0.2.9 also has a placeholder waveform with all possible channels present, and falls back to GDI more properly on frontend failure.
Stay sane, exile.

0.2.10 has an advanced preference to scan tracks not in the media library. It defaults to the current behaviour, which to analyse everything.

All right, thanks
Long waited, very quickly implemented

Mmh,

why not "Don't store analysed tracks not in the media library" to still get waveform display but without storing them to the database?

Because that's a completely different feature, which would require multiple backends to support the temporary in-memory one then.
That is something that is not trivially implementable, unlike the analysis filter here, which was just a dozen lines or so in one function.
Literally, if (skip_tracks_outside) if (not library->is_track_in_library(make_handle(location))) skip();

Ok, didn't know that. Just sounded more useful to me ;)

Don't actually need these options for me.

It would be nice for the display to scale or have ability to scale per volume. Example all my files are mp3gain scanned so they all "look" narrow ranged or quiet, some of the lower volume tracks or portions of tracks appear as just a line. Scale based on db's would be great then one could set max at 89 db's and that should be close on the range. It would give some control over the look of the wave also. Not really a dynamic per track scale as a constant scale, does that make sense?

@Zao :

bug (according to me)

on playback STOP, the wave seekbar is still displayed, it shouldn't (no sense)

what about it ? could you fix it please ?

Thanx for feedback.

EDIT: i use latest version v0.2.10

I consider it to be a feature that the previous waveform persists, as otherwise you'd get annoying flicker on track changes.

I'm cool with that! I hate flickering.

I don't see what's wrong with that, either.

I'd rather see the waveform of the last track that was played instead of seeing nothing at all.

I think Falstaff's suggestion is backwards, personally. I like it the way it is.

0.2.11 now has a shiny tooltip when seeking that indicates the target time.

Very nice. But it should get improved a bit.


I have foobar at upper right screen corner. Dragging (seeking) mouse cursor out of screen (say above foobar in this case) causes tooltip going out of screen too. Tooltip should switch position to stay in foobar window. Same when dragging to the rightmost screen edge -> tooltip should switch position to the left of the mouse cursor to stay in screen. Also when dragging mouse cursor very far away from the foobar window (so that even the seek cursor gets hidden) doen't hide the tooltip. So you can move the tooltip around the whole screen via mouse drag. Should be avoided.

Already reported and fixed internally.

Just wondering... Is Direct2D incapable of the same effects as Direct3D in this case? What are the advantages/disadvantages?

foo_wave_seekbar

Reply #498 –
I could make the Direct2D mode push the exact same pixels as the GDI mode, but then there would be no need for it.
The Direct2D look is the way it is because it's different and does something (smooth splines) that would be hard to do in the other two frontends.
This is why I do not bundle the Direct3D10 frontend anymore, it doesn't add any value over the Direct3D9 one.

Hello and thank you for the great work.
I have an idea: could you add normalizing of waveforms? It can be very useful for signals with very low peaks
