Hello Chronial

excellent work! This is the best Coverflow I've seen to date!

I have one additional feature request:
I have a huge library with many albums. So to get from one side to the other takes quite a while. Would it be possible to "jump" to the character I type on the keyboard.
Example: I currently play A-Ha - Headlines And Deadlines and want to jump to a R.E.M. album. So I would type "R" and the Chronflow would jump to the first Artist with "R". This would be a great help for big librarys.

So i have got sometimes the error
Image leak texture : 47
or
Image Leak texture : 103

It doesn't change anything but i have the errors which appears when i play with the layout of column ui...
And can you make that the message error with Release OF Rc Failed. (main Win)... disappear when i close foobar ?
Nice component. I wait for the next release.

YES!!!!!

This is just about the coolest thing yet!! It's gotten me back into messing with my config (something I really don't have the time for!!!!) and I am really enjoying watching the covers and seeing the different options for the flow.  Chronflow, this is a really really great piece of work.  Someone is starting something like this as a plugin for Squeezeserver (used to be slimserver), it would be great if there was a way to use your code as a base.  I may suggest he look in this forum and see what you have wrought, for it is good, sayeth me.

Here's to you!

This plugin rocks!!

One thing I would like is more customisability in playing albums.

An autosend playlist [see: Album List Panel] that has a customisable name would be much better than replacing any playlist which happens to be open. Also this way it prevents from accumulating several playlists on each album play. Still, the option of creating a new playlist is useful as well.

Hello, i want that feature too!

Chronial thank you very much for your work! It's one of the best components developed for Foobar after PanelsUI IMO.

Quick question:
Is there anyway of returning the number of tracks in an album, so that it can be displayed as part of the album title?

Tag your albums with TotalTracks and use %totaltracks%

the Auto Track Number function in the properties dialog helps with this immensely

Chronflow

Thanks kanak, I didn't realise it would be something so simple.
And that auto track number function definitely does make things a lot easier

Would it be too much to ask to put a download link in the first post of this topic ? I'm currently unable to find a usable link for the latest Chronflow version... thanks in advance.

Yes, it would. The first post is not by me - this is not my topic.
My component is still under developement. I will create a new thread (and quite likely also rename the component) once it has reached a stable state.

Yep, you're right, or at least close enough.
I removed Omega drivers and installed latest Catalyst (8.3). As a result, the freeze time was reduced to just a second. But it's still there.
Sry - I don't have any idea at all what might cause this.


I have the same problem. Probably has something to do with the catalyst drivers. I have a ati radeon mobility x1400. Hope it gets fixed somehow! Because it's pretty annoying having to wait almost 5 seconds sometimes before the panel is active and it needs to be active to play an album, I can scroll with mouse hovered but not select or play an album.

I'm sorry - I can't fix this. I have no idea what exactly could cause this, and I'm not a software developing company. But if anyone want's to give me a system with a radeon mobility x1400, I'll be happy to fix it .

i can't get this plugin to work, no matter what i do it always displays "no covers loaded"

Did you make sure that the files you are playing are in your library?  I had to make that change.  Not sure if it can be made to follow the current playlist or if it will see any covers without that.  Second, make sure the name that you use for your covers (cover.jpg, album_art.jpg, folders.jpg, %artist%-%album%.jpg, etc) is set.

Greetings

I hope it is not off topic    but what do I do if have some special characters in my album-cover-names?
Like ? or worse ¿
I don't know any code to display them meaning to fix the path-name.
sometimes it is the best, not to say anything

I love your plugin! I'm really looking forward to future releases.



I have one question though: how do I have to change the code so that the aspect ratio is forced to 1:1?

I finally figured out the issue with Chronflow being on top of everthing all the time (it was an error on my part in my code).

One problem that I know is not my fault is the Texture Leak errors I keep getting when I exit foobar. The number seems to change randomly, but I was wondering if it has been fixed yet?

Would you mind sharing what the solution was? I'm having the same problem.

If you post over in the Panels UI thread I am sure your problem can be sorted out (since this topic is for Chronflow, and it's a Panels UI problem, not Chronflow). I have posted my solution over there too .

There is no way to change the aspect ratio of the covers, and I see no reason to implement that, since stretched cover will for sure not look good.

Yes, that's fixed.

I am confused where I can find the latest version? I read through the posts but I am confused(a debug version is mentioned).

It would be cool if a mod could put a link to the latest version in the first post. It would make it much easier to find the plugin.

The latest (beta i think) version, is here:
http://chron.visiondesigns.de/foobar2000/f...flow_v0.2.1.zip

There is no final version yet (as far as i know)

Chronial, do you plan to do some optimizations? (The component is stuttering with my C2D@1.6Ghz..  )
