v0.73 beta released

@ALL

Thanks all for your comments. v0.73 beta is just released. Same as the last betas, the "Album View" is still disabled. This version mainly fixed some errors introduced by "Playlist" & now it's possible to customize your favourite music playlist ("On-The-Go") with S2P.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] AboveTheBULL:
Oh nice! Will try right now....

EDIT: :( Songs play just fine if I don't refresh the library (I had v0.70 running fine -- but v0.72 also had this problem). Soon as I refresh library, nothing will play although all the songs appear in the list. Program just highlights song name, pauses 3-7 seconds, and program closes. I'm using a stock Sprint Touch Pro. Any ideas?

EDIT #2: Also, starting it from Programs menu or "Recent programs" in the start menu

while it's already running in the background

still produces a number of "ARM11 FATAL ERROR"s. I'll list them now:

1. oncrpcmem.c line 1062 -- Capture dumps? Yes, No

2. oncrpcmem.c line 555 -- Capture dumps? Yes, No

3. oncrpcmem.c line 555 -- Capture dumps? Yes, No

4. oncrpcmem.c line 555 -- Capture dumps? Yes, No

5. oncrpcmem.c line 555 -- Capture dumps? Yes, No

6. oncrpcmem.c line 555 -- Capture dumps? Yes, No

7. oncrpcmem.c line 555 -- Capture dumps? Yes, No

8. oncrpcmem.c line 555 -- Capture dumps? Yes, No

9. oncrpcmem.c line 555 -- Capture dumps? Yes, No

Thank you A_C for all your hard work, but all the betas 0.70 to 0.73 suffer the same fault on my WM6.1 Loox N560. Pressing all keypad keys to regain the S2P screen after it has switched off the screen brings back the Today screen. This is a pain. I keep reverting to version 0.58 which did not suffer this problem. The Record button does the same thing.

Version 0.73 beta does now correctly function on the joypad and action buttons (i.e. vol up and down, next and last track and stop start play). But all other buttons take you out of the program and back to the Today screen, even though the music keeps playing in the background! Changing the Button settings does not have any effect. Shame.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] syrguy1969:
Keeps getting better + better!!! Downloading now!!! :D
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] littld:
I have problems clicking the button in the top right to show the tracks in an album. It now displays the track slider which then won't go away whatever I do. And sometimes the dpad button can start and stop the track but the play button isn't updated. VGA version OpenGL. 0.73.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] dizzyraider:
This is by far one of the best players available. I do have a question though. S2P seems to be hypersensitive with my touch screen. Often times when I scroll though a list, no matter how slight or slow of a touch, it seems to just fly though and makes it hard for me to make my selection. Is there a way to change the screen/scroll sensitivity?
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] skyler17:
thank you for playlist support!

I have a question though, I've been switching between the VGA and the Open GL VGA version as new releases come out.

what is the difference? they both work on my Rhodium (touch pro 2).

thanks
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] sudermatt:
Anyone else finding it more difficult to actually select a song to play in the 7x versions?

Seems like the Flow is very sensitive and jittery. It takes 5 or 6 tries to get it to play anything?
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] sandronesta:
finally a on-the go feature.. thanks
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] svprm:
'On-The-Go' working properly.

Thanks for hard work.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] oufti.com:
Getting better and better, now what would be fantastic is the possibility of saving these playlist, and opening/editing existing playlist.

It would be heaven.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] A_C:
I don't know what that oncrpcmem.c is about. And I cannot reproduce your said problem. Maybe you can try to set the "DisplayMode" to 1. (Please refer to the README for details)

It's on purpose that I've extended the keys range to minimize S2P in v0.7x.

Please try to provide more specific/details on how to reproduce your said problem, otherwise it's hard to fix.

If you really want to scroll slowly, keep your finger down when scrolling.

It's answered already. Anyway, the OpenGL version will take advantage of the 3D capability to flip the screen more smoothly.

Again it's answered already. Tap & hold the song for a little while. It's to differentiate the action between "select" & "scroll".
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] A_C:
It's almost already there with v0.73 beta but in a different way:

- you can add any playlists or songs to the On-The-Go playlist then edit it (though the change individual song sequence is not ready yet).

- the On-The-Go is automatically saved as S2P.M3U at the installed folder. You may rename & copy it to your Library folder for future use.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] elementalfusion:
could u add a key remap function so we can skip tracks without taking the phone out of our pockets? It would be awesome!

Thanks!
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] fingerstoo:
Thank you for your reply but can I ask why you did this, please? I liked the fact that the screen turned off (or you could turn it off with one button) then with a touch of another buttoon bring S2P back on the screen. I would prefer to be incontrol of what is displaying than being forced back to the Today screen i.e. minimised. I know of no other application that does this, so why did you make S2P different?

WMP-Playlists

Hello

Thanks a lot for your great work! I have a litte problem though (guess I must be too stupid to figure it out). I have made 3 playlists in WMP for syncing my songs to my Touch HD. These playlistst show up in S2P (0.73) but when I select them, they seem to be empty (although in WMP all the songs show up and play). How do I correctly use those playlists? (they are in a folder called "Playlists" on my storage card and my mp3's are in a folder called "Music" on the storage card).

Thanks again
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] dizzyraider:
Thanks for the reply :) The real problem that I'm having is when I scroll to the item I want to select, the tiniest movement as I'm lifting my finger off the screen will cause the list to start scrolling. Is there a way to adjust the sensitivity? BTW A_C, you wrote a heck of a player!
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] s81:
Hi A_C!!

Will you provide s2p of all the configurable settings in the same program or we will still depend on s2u for some functions e.x. Close s2p when headset is disconnected!

Great work man! Thanks for your effort

s2p v .73

Do I need to uninstall the older version before the newer one?

QA
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] pukhtoon:
um i cant open o.73 wen open it , it open every thing works but wen i click on a song it freezes for a bit before the program just automaticli closes. after soft reset n stuff it still does the same thing.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] sipospeter:
end key

the player looks great, playlist function is just awesome.

but i have an issue here: the end key doesn't send the application to the background. why is that? send key exits like it is described. i have a polaris with wm 6.5 rom, build 23053.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] qanda6900:
Uninstall program, and soft reset.

Try to reinstall.....then soft reset before opening program.

Go to Menu, Refresh the library and make sure to reset the Library path.

good luck. It's a great player!
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] sudermatt:
Currently, the s2p.m3u playlist the only one that it editable?

Will this continue forward?

Will we ever be able to have multiple, editable playlists in the future?

Thanks,

Matt
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] joshzzz2001:
one request please: to have a sleep timer function. i know you can do it in s2u2 settings but it would be awesome if you don't have to do that. thanks for the update!

Bluetooth Headset

Hello again

I have another small question. I have a SE Bluetooth Stereo Headset. While I can listen to music using this headset in conjunction with S2P the controls on the headset (volume, start/stop, skip) don't work (they do work in WMP). Is this not implemented yet or have I missed something?

Thanks a lot
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Vegito168:
Sweet!!! Another release! Downloading now! Thanks A_C!
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] rebecker:
A_C,

Thanks for another great piece of software.

I have a question that I didn't see addressed here. While I can see the album art for all my mp3's, I cannot see art for the newly supported m4a's. Is there a setting I must change? Or is that feature not available for m4a's? If it's currently not available, do you have plans to add that feature?

Thanks again.

-Bob-
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] AboveTheBULL:
It was already set at "01" -- and so I cycled it through "00", "0", and "1", each time soft-resetting and observing the same behavior. So I returned it to the "01" setting, since this apparently has no bearing on the starting-while-minimized problem.

Still, the oncrpcmem.c problem completely takes a back seat to the playlist problem -- as I stated before, if I select "Refresh Playlist", it will scan the "Music" folder quickly, properly identifying all the new songs added. BUT when I select any song to begin playing, it hangs for 3-7 seconds and then the program simply closes out (crashes). This behavior was NOT experienced in v0.70, but has made both v0.72 and v0.73 unusable.

I'm not sure what changed between v0.70 and v0.72 in the library detecting routines, but something is awry. Just tell me how I can help....

You are not alone, Pukhtoon....

HTC RC E100 control button not working

Possible solution for the AVRCP problem when using Broadcom\Widcomm BT Stack!

@ A_C

Is it possible to have a Windows Media Player AVRCP plugin for S2P, like Conduits offers the WMP Plugin Adapter for there Pocket Player?

Because Pocket Player is so far the only audio player (except Windows Media Player) that supports AVRCP function (play/pause/forward/rewind) for Broadcom/Widcomm BT Stack based WM 6.x ROMs. This plugin solution for the Pocket Player works perfecet for all Broadcom/Widcomm BT Stack based palyers like my LG KS20 and as well many other HTC phones etc.

But the UI of the Pocket Player isn't that kind of finger friendly like you S2P player, especial for QVGA resolutions. Pocket Player has also no support for S2U2, I like also very much.

But without a support of the Broadcom/Widcomm BT Stack AVRCP, S2P is pretty much usless for car stereo and stereo hands free headphones like my Jabar BT3030.

As far as I know S2P uses also the Windows Media Player as base player in the background, like Conduits also did for there Pocket Player. Sa a plugin solution or maybe a build one, like the WMP Plugin Adapter should also be possible for S2P.

Hope to here some comment from you!

Thanking you in anticipation.

Samsung Omnia 2 (i8000)

Hey there guys.

Im going to buy the new Samsung Omnia 2 and Im wondering if S2P is made also for WVGA (480x800) resolution phones, like new Omnia and HTC Touch Pro has. I see that S2U is for WVGA.. but S2P? At downloads it doesnt say. :confused:

Im sorry for my bad English and Im sorry if I missed that because I didnt read the whole post.

thanks
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Zepiii:
A_C, you are so good ! Thank you for work !

1. It would be cool if you had several On-The-Go ;) ! Like that we could make a techno compilation, sleep compilation,...

2. When we are playing a playlist... And if i press the small cover button up right. It show all the song of the singer, and not only the one from the singer selected in the playlist, is it normal?

3. Do you plan adding the lyrics, like on iPhone ?

Thank you, if you weren't existing, we would have create yourself... :D

Hi guys,

I just changed to Samsung Omnia i8000 and has follow issues with S2P:

Whenever I press the artist name in Artists tab, the device hangs.

Any clue?
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Wolfkmann:
A_C,

As always, fabulous! I love the fact that you added asx support, and on-the-go is great. I think it is great that I can creat a "temporary" playlist for the moment, and if I want to keep it, just rename the file and save it. I have a 6800, and I never had a problem with the music cutting out when I hit the power button, until this version, However turning on powertweak makes it work fine.

I have no problems waiting patiently for coverflow and landscape support to return, I think what you have done with this product is amazing.

I do have a few minor questions:

Is it possible/can it be possible to que up the next song you want to hear, without interupting the current song playing? Instead of deciding ahead of time what I want to hear and making a playlist, I sometimes spontaneously decide what song I would like to hear next.

In S2U2 on the topmost bar I can display my carrier's logo and see a digital battery, can this be put into S2P as well?

Thanks,

-Wolf

Windows Media Player AVRCP plugin for S2P

Hi Holy_moly,

I also have a Jabra BT3030 and use s2p on my O2 XDA Orbit2 (aka Polaris).

If you run WMP, start a track playing, then quit and run S2P your buttons will work. Bizarre Huh?

A_C, great software, keep up the great work :-)
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] holy_moly:
Does not work with the Widcomm BT Stack, but check this ...

Thanks for the hint, but did not work at all when using the Widcomm BT Stack. :mad:

@ All using Widcomm BT Stack

When using the Widcomm BT Stack you have a change different reg values to enhance A2DP audio quallity. Check this thread for more information, you can find there the neccessary reg tweaks for the Microsoft BT Stack as well.

http://www.smartphonemag.com/cms/blogs/3/you_have_skipping_or_other_problems_with

These are my setting for the Widcomm BT Stack and the Jabra BT3030. Now BT stereo audio sound like the wired headset solution. No more fizzling snake sound! ;)

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Widcomm\Plugin\AV\LineSpeed = 320 (DWORD)

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Widcomm\Plugin\AV\SubBands = 8 (DWORD)

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Widcomm\Plugin\AV\Blocks = 16 (DWORD)

Just add these values to your reg and restart BT to activate. Soft Reset is not necessary, so you can fast test the result when using different values.

@ A_C

Still looking forward to get a AVRCP Widcomm BT Stack fix, or plugin like that one for the pocket player, fo use my BT and all keys to control S2P. ;)
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Sanjay10:
Hi A_C

One thing that bugs me is that when you put music onto your PPC it makes a folder music and then puts all the synced music in there. Maybe if you can try and make the set library able to go into files within My docs or Storage device and then have a select button to say this is my library area. Also maybe have an auto refresh so when s2p loads it automatically refreshes the library.

If you look at pocket player you can see that you are able to manage your music through the taskbar, so you dont need to open up the program. Maybe do something like that. This way it would be a bit more like the iphone.

Last of all Please try and get an equalizer!!!!!!!!!!
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] ILLustRAYt:

Is there a WVGA version planned?
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] bmnaccounts:
Hello guys. Great player. But there is one bug that makes it unusable for me. On my HTC TOUCH HD If I just hide the program and again open it then it will not possible to go to settings using "arrow button", it just doesn't make any response. Could you fix this? Thanks in advance. PS. I use WM 6.5. I guess that is the reason but I am not sure.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] seraphx:
I wish that S2P supports gapless playback...:-(
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] rmanaka:
+1 here on album art not showing for .m4a's (they display in WMP).

I also have noticed a few small bugs in 0.73beta.

Even though I have "AlwaysLoadEmbedAlbumPic" set to "true", if the next song does not change folders, the album picture will not reload if I use the "next track" button. This occurs because I have a few "compilation" folders that have songs from different albums and artists. When the folder changes OR if I go back to library and select the next song the album art will refresh.

With random tracks turned on, every once in a while after setting the library and then selecting a song, the current song list/pointer is not updated and S2P will not "play" until "next track" is selected on my BT headset.

Using an AT&T Fuze (Raphael) with the current RRE WM6.5 ROM and the new Spb Mobile Shell 3.5 (see signature).

Thanks VERY much for the entire S2 series, A_C!!!:p
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] ryomahino:
Hi A_C:

Why do you change the settings registry to binaries values?

I really prefer dword values because to made plugins or panels some programs doesnt support the binaries values.

Do you mind to change that for the non-beta release?
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Jokes On You:
I dont think thats a bug.

I was trying t reproduce but I haven't been able to do it now. I know there is a way to get out of it I just cant figure it out now.Sorry :(
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] bmnaccounts:
why? :confused: BTW sorry for my English, prob. my explanation is not understandable. Should'nt this button work normally after displaying player again? So, how can I go to settings and main menu? What it is if it is not bug?
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Ciddy:
Hey A_C, first of all thanks and props to you for this excellent work.

I have the following suggestion/question:

Right now playlist functionality is only there for locally saved playlists. Since I mostly use playlists for audiobooks and keep them separate from my music (since there would be like 200 audiobook tracks mixed with 650 music tracks - shuffle's no fun then) ;)

I have tried relative playlists inside the library structure pointing outside of it (files listed in /Music/Playlists/example.m3u are located in /Audiobooks/example/) but unfortunately that didn't work.

Is there a plan to integrate relative playlists and if so, any hint of when there might be a version?

Mortplayer has a very cool way to deal with it but the interface of S2P is just soo much nicer. Maybe you guys can hook up and combine? Could be kick-a$$. ;)
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] AstarteSV:
Me too =( galpess playback support would make this thing perfect :)
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] SSJVegetto:
I'm trying the application now (0.73 Beta), however i noticed that the album art is not changed when the song is changed (different album ofcourse). When i press more and select 'set album' the cancel button does absolutely nothing.

Isn't there a function to delete playlists and create new ones?

Some album names are just screwed up.

Can't find options button when i press more, would be easy if there are options they could be altered in an easy way.

The artists tab is not displaying the artists at al just the songnames and the same goes for the albums tab.

I also find the songs tab to different from the albums and artists tab since at the songs tab you have the list of songs (all songs) while artists and albums tab you can select a folder (which is a very very nice option!)

For the rest i love the program its just that these things makeit unuseable for me!

I'm using the HTC Touch HD.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] mike2nl:
Hi A_C,

at first from me too: That is a very good player for mp3.

Your version(s) will be better and better. Some questions

i have...

Do you plan a list of grafics for skinning?

Do you need the dutch language?

Do you planning lyrics for the player?

- Like in other ones

Do you planning a sleep and wake up timer?

- Something like in Power Radio from 6Fg8

Also i will support the s2p with skins from my

misc dusk stuff series. I have skinned now many

apps for that. And i hope, all the time in one line

with george ;-).
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] baddar:
Hello everyone

First i would like to thank A_C for the wonderful program.... i mean i use to use audiomanager but it sucks compared to this n its compatibly with s2u2 which is perfect :=)... well i jst wanna ask if other ppl have this problem, when u press shuffle on the on the go playlist it will play each song once in random order but then it will start to play all the songs.... i would like it if it would play the same playlist again, as in a repeat all function :=)......
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] st40611:
I have the same problem, and so once I start to listen to a song I can't go back to the list of songs.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] A_C:
Probably not in the near future.

Copy those playlists to your "Music" folder.

Those settings are more reliable when controlled by S2U2.

No.

I doubt it's caused by your 6.5 rom.

Probably not.

Have you paired your BT Headset before starting S2P?

Could you send me (info{at}ac-s2.com) 1 or 2 m4a with embedded album pic for testing?

I don't know as I didn't change that part.

The real problem is I used to have a P535 which has Widcomm BT module, but now it's gone. So I don't have any Widcomm BT device for testing.

Just use the VGA version.

1. After creating a On-The-Go playlist, you can copy it (S2P.M3U under the installed folder) to the library folder; set the library again to rescan the files.

2. That's normal.

3. No.

What's the file structure of your library?
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] A_C:
For the carrier's logo, it's already implemented in the 0.7x. Just follow the instruction of S2U2.

Use the VGA one.

Again, I think it's caused by your custom WM6.5.

Not sure yet, but I'll check the "AlwaysLoadEmbedAlbumPic" again.

Which plugin or panel that don't support binaries? Binaries is used because it's faster (theoretically) & smaller.

I think all your files are stored in "Storage Card", right? Actually, relative & absolute paths are already checked by S2P. I may add one more checking with the root of the library.

1. When "Set Library" is pressed, it takes time to rescan the folder. The "Cancel" is only used for canceling the "More" sub-menu.

2. Again, to make use of the "Artist/Album" tab, refer to the FAQ for the file structure requirement.

1. All graphics under GFX folder are editable.

2. Not at the moment, though multi-language support is already there.

3. No.

4. Sleep function is already there with S2U2.

I think your second "start to play" is pressed by your BT Headset or remote, right? If yes then it's on purpose.
