Thread: Centrafuse 1.1 Bugs

Nitpicking here, and definitely not a 'bug', but I tried changing the icon for the new 'MINIMIZE' action, by putting a file called 'minimize.png' in the icons folder.

This had no effect over the MINIMIZE action icon on the main CF page.

I see elipsis appearing in the title, but I see no elipsis whatsoever in the actual song list. Why o why?

I am notigincg (in my home computer) that if I make the album art etc fullscreen, as soon as I switch back to regular mode (non fullscreen), the CF application is no longer frontmost.

If you have a Window open in your desktop, for example, that will become frontmost, and CF is sent background. Or if I have another app open (like MSIE, it will bring that one forward.

Also pressing the volume buttons occasionally stutter mp3 playback.
Using the minimize icon even without the hide taskbar option on causes my desktop not to appear (only the wall paper appears),I tried with a keyboard and ctrl-alt-del it and switch back to cf but i get a .net error and cf only partially appears.

I cannot reproduce this... Does it create an error.log?

About 1 out of 10 times when turning up or down the volume, the volume dialog box will not close. Then about 15 seconds another dialog box shows up behind the volume dialog box, with the title "setup error".

At this point, Centrafuse becomes unresponsive. I have to open task manager, and close it.

Also, when using a keyboard/firefly remote to select songs via up/down keys, if you change the volume, the song selection no longer responds. You then have to click on the list with the mouse/touchscreen to regain focus, which defeats the purpose of using the keyboard/firefly remote in the first place.

Does it create an error.log file? This must be the thread not getting closed when you issue the command from the hotkey, therefore running non-stop and causing the error...

I cannot reproduce, I just sent the hotkey from the keyboard over and over and it will not popup... I also use a powermate to send the hotkeys in my personal car and have used it for 3 months and never seen this...

does it create an error.log file? If so please post it...

• Good Stuff
  • Large MP3 file playback start is nice and fast. Thank you.
  
  
• Bad Stuff
  • XM won't connect to the XMDirect box. CF reports "Unable to open COM1" (error log below) but the error is bogus. Using a serial port monitor, CF _does_ open the port, it just never talks to it. RC5 installed on the same system works fine. AIMEE works fine. Hyperterm works fine.
    
    Error Log:

    ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
    (etc for a total of 8 attempts)

  • I connected my H10 (MP3 music player) via USB and started CF. As CF loaded, it browsed the device, imported tracks, and then started playing them. That's a fun feature for those who want it, but (as we've talked about before) it doesn't make sense to me. I don't want CF browsing every USB device that I happen to plug in.
    
    Can you PLEASE make an option to stop CF from looking at what I have plugged in?

That is strange about the XM error, I didn't even open the XM files for this release, literally.... Sure no other programs have the port locked?

You can easily make it not open your USB ports by disabling Auto Play in Settings...
