TuneNet Testing (V86.66)

-> V86.66 available see page 8

Hi,

Some of you will probably know that a bug fix / PThread-less release of TuneNet was in the works and due for release. Well although most of the work has been completed I've still some issues I need to resolve. So given the long period of absence from me in the past on these forums, I just wanted to let those who are waiting know that it's still in the works and will be released as soon as possible.

Mid next week is the earliest I'm going to be able to get back on my Amiga, so I'll post an update here at the end of next week with another update.

Cheers,
Bean.

P.S. I'll also take a look at the shuffle play that many of you have mentioned is broken.

@bean

Thanks for the update!

Thankyou!

@bean

Great news man!

@bean

Please take a look at the broadcast feature as well. It never worked under SAM / AmigaOS 4.1

@bean

I love Tunenet and it is great to see it developed further. It's used on a daily basis here since... long time ago

@bean

hehe we ain't used to hearing from you, you are spoiling us! :P keep doing it!

Bean's here to get his crown back ;)

@bean

thx for the update!

@Amigo1

Keep up the good work !

@bean

Hurrah! Thanks for the update.

While you're here... when I run TuneNet in SkinFX but minimised mode recently, I find it crashes (and takes out AmiDock and maybe WB with it) when the playlist finishes. You might want to quickly check that before you do a release, in all probability it's either just me, or fixed already.

@Chris

Will do! Lots of code has changed since the last release, especially all the internal task management routines, which I hope will make a difference to stability (and hopefully not for the worse either )

@bean

Thanks for your update, looking forward to try

@bean

Ah,this is sweet music for my ears. Good to have you back,and i'm looking forward to an update,

@bean

Feature request: Add an alpha channel to the skinned display so it blends into the display nicely? :)

@bean

TuneNet is one of my favorite Apps.

Thankyou!

@All,

Quick update;

I've fixed the shuffle mode, it now;

* Works. It was broken beyond belief! Thanks to all who reported it.
* The shuffle state (on/off) is saved if running in GUI mode and will be recalled for the next time you boot into GUI mode.
* The Next and Previous buttons will cycle forwards amd backwards through the shuffled tracks.
* If new tunes / playlists are added then a reshuffle takes place immediately.

Is there anything else people want from the shuffle mode?

@bean

can't wait for new exe :) maybe you in interest to do some betatesting before release ?:)

@bean

Hope I get to check this out before I sell the A1 man.

FuZion.

@all

Ah, almost like the good old, days, Bean back DaveP back, sniff sniff, wonder what happened to poweramiga?
