Assuming that the root of this issue stems from initiating a MiniBar from the main GUI, then changing the MiniBar status from the tray, then I'd say go for it. It's nice to be able to access all the features from this menu, but it is redundant and does make the menu feel a bit heavy. I rarely see a full feature set included in an applications tray menu.

The work you have done on this script is exemplary; I see how much it's improved since the early betas I'm glad you finally posted it on this forum.

Thanks, Titan, much appreciated. =]

If the cut-down tray menu causes heartburn, by all means, speak up.

I'm having a small problem: although I specified a dash ( - ) for the missing tag in Options, the actual list still shows <missing>. This happens in previous builds; haven't checked b103 or b106 yet.

Have I mentioned a Refresh List option already? Would be good to have, since I often move files around, adding to certain folders and removing from others.

Will try latest build right away.

[EDIT]
Forgot to mention: in Options > Toaster, the 4 color previews (font/background) are using progressbars. However, my system has progressbars skinned and cannot be overridden, resulting in same background bitmap regardless of the settings.

I'd suggest replacing progressbar controls with ListViews (-E0x200 +Border -hdr +ReadOnly). Those should work just fine in all OS versions.

[EDIT 2]
First time I try to change fonts - won't work. Anything other than default MS Sans Serif, s8 would result in microscopic text or completely absent, regardless of the chosen size. I got lots of installed fonts and they all work in other applications. Especially wanted to try Arial Unicode MS for the Unicode tags.

A dash seems to work fine here. Do other custom strings work for you?


There was some discussion regarding this on the DC thread; no consesus was made, however. I did add a "Remove dead entries" a while back.


I'll look into this.


This is a Win9x issue only as it works fine in 2k/XP/Vista. I'll look into it. That being said, I'd be shocked if unicode tags worked in 9x/ME.

Ah, it's not a realtime setting; the playlist needs to be cleared and reloaded. It works that way but it'd really be ideal if it were refreshed with the new setting upon closing the Options panel.

Somehow related, it would look nicer IMHO if the track number (#) and Year columns would have the text centered; currently # column is right-aligned and Year is left-aligned. Just a personal opinion though.

Half usability. It doesn't add new items to the list.

Please don't be shocked; I know my baby can do lots of things that others consider as impossible. When there's a will, there's a way and I intend to find it.

i like the player very much but the tag editing could do some tweaks. currently when i save the edited tags it saves the file with time-stamp changed.

normally i use Mp3Tag which has this option called 'Preserve file modification time when saving tags' where the time-stamp remains unchanged. so i was wondering if this behavior can be included in Trout as well, if it's not too much of a hassle.

thanks

Sure, easily done. Thanks for the feedback.

I have some cosmetic issues with Trout when I click "up" (on the "up-side" of the vertical scrollbar, I get this:



When I click "down", I get this.



I don't get it when I use the scrollbar arrows, or drag the handle.

Win XP, SP3, default font settings, no theme.

One suggestion: Would it be possible to save the column settings? In my case, the playlist is sorted on artist-name and then artist-album (default), which is what I want, but I want to have the title in the second column, so I drag it after Trout has loaded. Now I have to do this every time Trout starts.

Still enjoying your program very much, can't wait for (possible) video support.

Please redownload and add this to your config.ini under the Settings section: Force_Listview_Refresh=1
Please let me know if that helps.


This needs to be done. However, this type of change will require some serious re-working of code. Unless, of course, somebody knows how to programtically move columns.


Thanks. Video support? Man... =] =] =]

Ok, that helped a bit. Now it looks like this:



Yes, video support

Download and try again, please. You may see flickering but I think this is the only way to solve it. Please let me know if that's any better. Now, earlier, you said you weren't running a them but, based on your screenshots, you are running some sort of theme.


Yep, I've seen this. However, I still have a lot to add on the audio side before I even consider video.

@Drugwash: Good to hear. =]
