Bryan,
Thanks for the beta version of 2215 to check out. All of the phm's that I've tested so far and also some of the other brands that was experiencing audio drops have all checked out ok. So far all looks good. Thanks.

Just finished my show and everything sounded great, not even a click where there used to be a big drop :) Thank you!

'Tis music to our ears...
 
So far everyone reporting indicates we nailed the problem. :g

You were made "temporary Beta Testers" since you experienced this problem. Be aware that we are waiting for each of you to post here that you give it your blessing. We need to know that we have fixed your problem before we release.

We would be interested to know if you are running with the Preveiw Display (small karaoke display that appears at the upper left) enabled or disabled?. It can now be moved, resized, and disabled/enabaled in the Tools menu Disable Preview Display command.

Please post that 2.215 is a GO or NO-GO for you.

Hello Admin,

Why in the world did you fellows make the KJ's Display window a separate window? I would suggest you re-attach that little bugger to the main form again. Sometimes during a show I have to move stuff around and I really don't want to have to keep chasing yet another window. I do like the idea of being able to hide or show it though. Maybe you could set it up so it can be docked/undocked from the main form and moved around.

Best,

Roger

Kickkin,
There are a lot of others that really like the window moveable/separate. it is probably a test. remember this is a beta.

Roger, there is a problem with Windows and Tab structure like we use in Hoster. When we disable this window, because it is BELOW the MENU BAR, the window will NOT DISABLE until you start PLAYING! :e :m :m

Also, we have already had very positive feedback from some users with, shall we say, vision imparement. They love the ability to resize the window and move it elsewhere.

If I hear you correctly, you move Hoster around during your show, so the Preview Display window is not following Hoster. Try this:
1. Move Hoster where you what it.
2. Close Hoster
3. Reopen Hoster
4. The Preview Display window will be where it always has been.

We will be stripping the Tab structure from Hoster in version 3.0. However, for now we needed to allow the Disable Preview Display to work. Making it a floating window is the only way we can solve the problem with Tabs, without extensive research (we already spent over 8 hours trying to overcome the Microsoft limitation). :r

We could move the Add Tracks group of controls to the left, and shift the Preview Display window and Show Time field to the right. This also would overcome the problem... and cost me a LOT of time recapturing and processing images, the redoing the manual. :f :r

I didn't get a chance to download the link. Was going to do it tonight and test it. If you can send a link to my e-mail address listed, I'll grab it tonight and try it.

Re: Problems with newer PHM's/2.209
 
Well Admin, that makes since why you did what you did. But that dosen't mean I have to like it :) Any way for the ones that need it leave it as you have it then. I'll just deal with it.

Best,

Roger

Since I never move Hoster around I didn't realize the screen would float, so I played with it a little tonight. It was interesting but it won't cause me any consternation, I did resize it a little to better utilize the space it sits in. Tomorrow I might try putting on an unused part of my desktop so I can make it even larger. I like it.

2.215 is definately a GO in my book.
Thanks again MTU

The windowed settings are session-only persistent, so they are reset when you run Hoster again.

This is a stop-gap feature for the PHM problem that we don't want to put a lot of time into. Once we rewrite the CDG Render code to run faster, disabling the preview display won't be needed. However, we are having a number of our beta testers liking the window and resizeability. Thus, we may change the "Disable Preview Display" into "Make Preview Display Float" command and make the settings persistent. :w

Hi All,

Audio dropouts seem to be solved in version 2.215, however the sweeping of the lyrics is definitely a bit slower than it was in version 2.213 #3. I noticed this especially on SC Eagles, shorus would start and be at the end of the word or at start of next word before sweeping began.

Thanks,
T
