Re: XMP 3.0 [solved]

@cha05e90

Ah right, thanks. I just managed to reproduce it. It looks like an issue with the plugin.

The crash seems to occur (at least on my machine) during the "TestPlayer" phase on the "second" TuneNet run. The actual crash points to a function within the XMP plugin called "register_format()" (from xmp_init_formats() within xmp_init())

I don't know if that helps anyone tracking the bug down. I've a lot to do at the moment, but I'll try and get round to releasing the plugin SDK soon. Essentially all the old methods should still work (there are just some better ways of doing things - especially regarding tune information), but I do understand it's never been properly documented.

Cheers,
Bean.

How exactly do you replicate the crash? I've noticed this thread and wanted to investigate, but haven't been able to reproduce yet.

Re: How to delete a single song from playlist ?

Currently the arrow up/down keys and space (to start/restart song) works in the Reaction GUI for both the playlist and the radio list. At least it should!! I should change the space behaviour to pause the current track though..

Hi Guys,

I will make sure that the delete key works in the next version on the Reaction GUI at least.

In the mean time, click the drop down arrow to the left of the tune search bar (on the reaction GUI) and select "Edit Functions". You can now move the tracks around with the buttons and clicking the "X" button deletes a track.

Cheers,
Bean.

Thanks for the file. I realised what the problem was about 2 seconds after loading the file into FileX.

The issue is now resolved and I'll release after running through my test list.

I'm using Tunenet every day. First i wan't to thank you for the first and very stable version of Tunenet delivered with Amiga OS4.1 Update1, known as Tunenet Version 0.92.44.

No problem. Glad you like it.

Quote:

Songend recognition for Modules, TFMX, SID-Files (its really annoying to press "next track" if the song repeats over and over again with correct repeat-settings)

That is really down to the plugin, a plugin can signal a tune end to TuneNet at any time. I remember providing a bit of code to Curty for use in the SID plugin to detect end silence, but that of course is not enough for certain SID's.

Quote:

- Save of the Mixer-Settings for every Plugin-Type (all Modules require for example a +18 Stereomix to be enjoyable with headphones and for tfmx-modules of course 150% Volume-Boost)

- Autoplayback Playlist/last played Song after restart Tunenet

The Autoplayback will definately get implemented at some point, I'll make a note of the mixer settings.

Quote:

I found a small bug in the 0.92.44 version. When playing a shoutcast station, the song info in ENV:TuneNet is only saved once for the first song. Any song info played after that never get written to ENV:.

OK, I'll look into it and get that sorted. I think I know what the problem is.

I have a new version of TuneNet which I'll release as soon at the experimental MP3Cast plugin gets the thumbs up (in the other thread).

Is it just one track, lots, or all?

Once playing does the slider also show 20 odd mins, or does that sort itself out whilst playing?

@centaurz

TuneNet's gapless mode is exactly as it describes. It makes sure that the first sample of the current tune comes directly after the last sample of the previous tune, so there is no gap.

This is fine with formats like AIFF, but with MP3 this is a different matter. When an MP3 is encoded there is (mostly) a small delay added by the encoder, the size of this delay depends on the encoder and settings used. There is also some padding added to the end. To make matters worse when the MP3 is decoded, by something like the mpega.library, a further start delay is introduced. These delays are not always clean either, they can contain encoding and decoding artifacts.

I bought an MP3 Album from Amazon a week or so ago, and the gaps between tracks when playting with TuneNet were enough for me to look further into this.

Cheers,
Bean.

@Jack

The images within music files are handy if you move them about between devices a lot. I will be adding external image support at some point soon.

@Chris H,

Lame supports gapless encoding, your files may already have that info in them!

There is no ARexx interface in the current version, but I am in the processing of adding one in. I'll be sure to add methods to query the playtime and extract the Album covers from the files.

I'll take a look at the cli playlist query.

@All,

Anyone tried the gapless plugin yet? Any luck?

This can be considered experimental, but I've released the Gapless MP3Cast plugin (V1.16) for anyone that wants to try it out.

Please read the readme first for full details and current issues!. Also don't forget to set TuneNet to gapless mode (the default mode).

To see if the currently playing MP3 supports gapless playback check the info window for the words "Gapless MP3".

OK, the plugin link download link is here: www.tunenet.co.uk/download/mp3cast1_16-experimental.lha

You'll need the OS4.1.1 version of TuneNet. A new version is on the way, though I'm not sure when yet.

Cheers,
Bean.

Hi,

This will work if the files come after each other in the list so:

TuneNet mp3:track1.mp3 mp3:track2.mp3 will play them as gapless.
(I've a fixed exe which will be released soon for the -load and relative path issues).

Perhaps some nice new ways to queue tunes using CLI/ARexx port are needed in order to support AMuse etc?

@Vulture

I've just tested with iTunes V7 and V9 MP3's tonight and gapless is working nicely. Basically anything encoded with the appropriate LAME headers or the iTunes standard should work fine, so I'm hoping your tracks will be fine.

I'm going to output the phrase "MP3 Gapless" in the Tune info window under the notes tag so you'll be able to tell if your file has gapless support or not.

Quote:

1. Right now when *tunenet -play* is invoked from CLI and tunenet is already running, if no song is selected in the playlist, nothing is played. Maybe you could tweak it so it plays the first entry in the playlist instead. That's be useful to me as I've configured a button to start tunenet and another for play/pause. So, if you'd tweak it that way I won't have to select something in the playlist, I'll have total control from the keyboard from the get go. If there's another way around though I'd be happy to know! :)

Try: tunenet -restarttune

Works here (though of course I have the latest bin).

Quote:

2. Are you planning of adding any DSP effects? Basic ones, bass, treble, stereo widening would be nice. I have to say I especially miss the stereo widening effect from songplayer.

I'm reading two DSP books at the moment, one specifically on Audio processing. We'll see how it goes.

Quote:

3. Is there a way to snapshot where Tunenet's icon goes while iconified?

Not yet, but I've already fixed the positioning issue of the app icon so now it finds the first available bit of space instead.

Quote:

4. And last, but not least, but certainly most unlikely to happen, is there any chance you add support for mp3pro? I've seen there's a relevant plugin for mplayer on linux that is also open-source afaik. Would that help at all?

I've no plans. But if the mpega library was updated everyone would benefit. A job for someone else I think.

@All,

I'll probably release a "test" plugin tomorrow evening for those who are interested in testing.

Cheers,
Bean.

Gapless MP3's + Streams (1.19)

Posted on: 2010/1/28 23:19 #37

Not too shy to talk

Hi,

I just thought I'd give you guys the heads up that after a little research (and a lot of hacking (with my own code and MP3 files that is - not other peoples!)) I've managed to get the MP3Cast plugin working in true gapless mode for the majority of MP3's. This includes Amazon and iTunes MP3's.

This means you can finally play albums where a track continues from one to another properly without a gap (needs TuneNet to be in Gapless mode). I'm particularly pleased as it doesn't involke any DSP routines and will work with the current mpega library.

Thought I'd share that with you all :) I'll release the updated plugin soon.

Cheers,
Bean.

Hello! Can someone please start a new thread, or individuals PM me with problems? This thread is a bit messy and old now!

Please remember to state the version you are running + remember that you should be able to reproduce the problem with no additional plugins installed, otherwise I don't have a chance!!

Cheers,
Bean

PS I have a new version in dev that helps with a few reported probs.

@ktadd

Hiya, Oh yes, I just noticed that without a full path in front of the song it doesn't load. D'oh!

For example:

Appdir:tunenet 02_Frankenstein.mp3

....won't play the song

appdir:tunenet mp3:02_Frankenstein.mp3

...will work.

I must have broken something prior to release.

I've produced an update which fixes some minor niggles, I'll include in it the fix for this as well.

Cheers,
Bean.
