Thread: Centrafuse RC4.2 Bugs

I hate to be the first person to post a bug. But the issue i had with Cf not correctly reading the tag info is still present. Its still detecting one album (but only a third of it) and detecting the rest as "unknown album". David, i was thinking. Can you make a little app that uses the same code base for reading the mp3 tags that can open a mp3 file and display all the readable info including album art. I think it would be usefull for not only me, but other people who have had issues with CF not reading tags correctly to see if its there files or not and for you; because if the app can read the mp3 files fine, then you know the issue is somewhere else in your app (maybe).

Theres nothing in your features list about CF being a silent install. After agreeing to the licence and clicking ok to install, the window disappears and it continues to install silently.

Also the playlist eject and counter no longer works (for me anyway).
<EDIT> After a restart of CF, the eject / counter seems to work if you had a list loaded. When ejecting, the timer is still displayed and the song continues to play.

Theres no error log either.

Can you PAHLEEEZE fix this:

1. hibernate from XM favorites screen, on resume loading shows up and hangs application

You've been promising "XM updates in the next release" for a while now, and this single bug is a serious PITA.

This one got missed when I last reported it, so here goes again...

If you use the CLIK-HOLD feature to search a Band Name by LETTER, it does not match the first occurence if band name begins with 'THE'.

So, I have:

The Cars
Counting Crows
The Cranberries
...


If I click Hold, and select letter 'C', it will hilite Counting Crows, instead of The Cars.

New fun/old reoccurring fun:

• If "Taskbar Off" set to ON (so CF suppresses the taskbar) then taskbar does not come back when CF exits
  
  
• XM Favorites not being saved. 100% repro. This was not an issue in RC 4.1
  
  
• Add (music/video) folders dialog broken. (possibly only with single click enabled) e.g. I want to add "c:\data\music",
  • Select Add Music Folder
  • Click "c:\"
  • Click "data"
  • Click "music"
  • Click "save"
  • Nothing happens
  Was also an issue in RC 4.1
  
  
• Previously Reported - XM list entries have confused data elements. e.g. Channels "41" & 48" both reporting as "Bone Yard" (they're not); "41" reporting as class = "Christian" (it's "Rock"); title of track on 48 showing on 41; etc. Will clear (i.e., display will be correct) after one or two refresh cycles.
  
  
• Previously Reported - clean boot after install gives multiple error.log entries of:
  11/25/2006 5:16:45 PM
  Font 'Century Gothic' doesn't support style 'Regular'.
  at System.Drawing.Font.Initialize(FontFamily family, Single emSize, FontStyle style, GraphicsUnit unit, Byte gdiCharSet, Boolean gdiVerticalFont)
  at System.Drawing.Font..ctor(String familyName, Single emSize, FontStyle style, GraphicsUnit unit, Byte gdiCharSet)
  at centrafuse.Plugins.CFPlugin.setlabelskin(String whichlbl, MouseEventHandler clickEvent, MouseEventHandler downEvent)
  This is NOT a skin issue. Skin files are correct, switching to "blue" skins does NOT clean the problem.

The taskbar comes back on all my test systems, I cannot reproduce this nor has it been reported by anyone else...

This sounds like a single click issues, I will get it fixed...

There are known XM issues, I have not done any XM programming in ahwhile... Since XM is a US only section, I am focusing on all other bugs first, which hopefully will not be many...

All your font problems are unique to your system. Does a single other person have this problem? This has never been reported nor can I reproduce... I have tried on three test machines... Something wrong with the fonts on your system possibly, not sure... This is the cause for all the errors in your post below as well, setting up the skin, getting text...

The clearbuffer error is another XM error, again I have not worked on it in some time... I will get back to it as soon as I can...
