CD Hardware/Software / Re: Ripping CDs on MacOS in 2025

another recommendation for dbpoweramp.  It's not free but does have a Mac version.  In fact latest version allows you to buy a license that can work on either windows install or Mac install.

Opus / Re: Opus gapless and glitchness encoding

I apologize to everyone who used the initial version of Gapless Opus Encoder, I was probably too excited to get it out and didn't spend time to verify that it worked correctly. I had simplified the logic too much when I patched in the RG scanner in last minute and had broken the encoding flow. Files encoded with it may not be 100% gapless and RG results are not right at all.

New version that I uploaded just now is actually verified to function as it should, I encoded my entire music library with it last night and verified the results this morning.
Other improvements are automatic handling of illegal filename characters. Character replacement follows the built-in Converter's modern character replacement setting from advanced preferences.
There's also an option to not overwrite files. Note that skipping some tracks within an album will break the gapless encoding flow as encoder will get reinitialized.
And I added ability to encode albums that have tracks with different specs. Encoder will just get reinitialized if format changes.

Hi Case. I've tried the updated version and converted 9 albums but none of the embedded album art has transferred to the converted OPUS files. All the other metadata has transferred across fine.

0.9.5 released!

  • Fix Columns UI fullscreen within Panel Stack Splitter (PSS) crash and skip GDI drawing when fullscreen. GDI drawing the (transparent) background is pointless because the parent PSS window is not fullscreen'd. So, the fullscreen entry methods are disabled in this context. In addition, even if not prevented, going fullscreen and returning loses the transparent background. I think this is a bug in PSS (or Columns UI) [windows hosting other windows not dealing with the fullscreen gracefully]. Only closing and reopening the player would bring back the transparency.
Are you sure you are not disabling transparency in your code returning from fullcreen regardless of the nature of the splitter type of the parent?
Did an extra test. This time CUI 3.0.0 alpha-2 with just a single JSplitter which holds a VU 2024. No PSS around whatsoever.
Green background is lost after returning from fullscreen.

So PSS has nothing to do with this issue.

What I also noticed is when you switch quickly between fullscreen and no fullscreen, the green background that is painted in the JSplitter is displayed but replaced quickly by a dark background. This also happens when resizing the panel/fooBar window. So what's up?

EDIT: Added the FCL for your own testing purposes. It needs CUI, JS3, JSplitter and VU 2024.

Thx!

Just a quick reaction. In the attached screenshot I'm running 5x VU 2024 instances from CUI/PSS/JSplitter parent.
All instances are set to "Lock ratio on" and therefore don't stretch fill the parent panel they live in and therefore can show transparency of this parent panel. They all run fine and no issues with flickering needles or the like.

Of course I noticed transparency being lost when returning from fullscreen.
I paint background/art from the grandparent PSS panel (all the reddish backgrounds).
For testing purposes I changed one of the direct JSplitter parents to display a bright green background and thus overwriting the PSS painted reddish background/art.
Returning from fullscreen also the green background is lost.
PSS has nothing to do with this since the parent is a JSplitter.

Are you sure you are not disabling transparency in your code returning from fullcreen regardless of the nature of the splitter type of the parent?

Is there a way to make a Style Script conditionally dependent on the active playlist?  By active playlist, I simply mean the playlist I'm looking at regardless of whether a track is playing or not.

I'm using a playlist to edit the genre fields of my tracks and I want the Genre column to have a green background, but only on the "Genres Playlist".

Thanks for any help!

I wouldn't know how even if I wanted to.

Peter's excellent list controls in the SDK do all the heavy lifting. All my code does is fill values/update on queue changes, re-ordering etc. I don't need to know or care about any display related code. It's invisible to me. This is very different from JSP3 where every single aspect of display handling is entirely my own code.
Bummer.

Thanks for the answer.
