Re: Hoster 5.07 Beta 1 - Test With Us!

Confirmed
- new - Added “hawaiian” Genre

Confirmed
- changed - Words Search Now Allows A Word To Be One Character - In Prior And This Version We Still Allow A Single Character To Be Entered To Search With It As The First Character To Match. Searching For "lady G" Will Now Find "lady Gaga".

Confirmed
- changed - Tools Menu "reset Displays" Command - This Now Forces These Dialogs/screens To Open On The 1st Monitor Along With The Hoster Screen.
- hoster Screen
- search Dialog
- singers Dialog [attached To Search]
- edit Singers Database Dialog
- edit Songs Dialog
- instabuttons Dialog
- show Display Dialog
- show [singers/audience] Display
- background Audio Player Dialog
- marquee Dialog
These Displays Will Always "reappear" When They Get Hidden, Or... When They Were On The 2nd Monitor And It Is Not Attached, Leaving Their "persistent" Location Outside The 1st Monitor.
Ok - Mine Opened Correctly, Didn't Experience This
- restored - Search Dialog - Singers Open Folder Icon - Just Like Before, This Shows Or Hides The Singer Dialog So Everyone Can Be Happy!

Unsure Of This - Does The Same Thing As Selecting Singer From Dropdown List.
- fixed - Volume No Longer Progressively Goes Silent - Wow... This Was A "double-banger" That We Never, Ever Considered Users Would Do!

If You Set A (playlist) Fade Out In Tools Menu > Audio Controls, Then Click; Skip, Stop, Restart, Or The Random Play (yellow Play) Button Before The Fade Ends, The End-of-file Is Encountered Before The Fade Out Computing On These Buttons Finished. This Caused; Crashing, Locking Up, Or Acting Erratically... And Is Now Fixed. 
I Ran The Test As Written And Still Experienced Issues. When Stopped Playing Track And Immediately Hit The Play While Selecting Next Track Still Acted Strangely. Playing Song Did Not Stop But, Display Went Black---faded All The Way To Nothing But, Did Not Start Next Track--acted Like It Was Crashing But Finally Started First Track Playing Again.
- fixed - Tools > Audio Control Now Defaults To "10" - We Fixed The Reason It Was Defaulting To "0" On A New Or Upgrade Install.
Will Test On Another Computer And Let You Know
- fixed - Search & Singer Dialogs Now Restore Correctly - Kod: When I Minimize The Search + Singers Dialogs And Double Click It, It Opens The Singers Dialog By Itself, But You Can't Minimize Or Close It Without Opening The Search + Singers Dialogs Again And Closing Or Minimizing It!
We Changed The Search-singers List So It Now Minimizes To The Task Bar Instead Of Onto The Desktop (hidden By A Full Screen Program.
Ok - Strange Results. If Click On X Does Nothing, If Click On _ Minimize It Flashes And If Hit _ Minimize Again It Does Minimize To Taskbar. Same Result If Hit On Maximize Icon.
note: Restoring Either Search Or Singer Dialog Will Show Both Of Them Again.
Confirmed
- fixed - Crash Running Two Copies Of Hoster - With 2 Databases And Multiple Registry Keys Shared Between Multiple Running Copies Of Hoster, It's A Disaster Waiting To Happen!
You Can Now Only Run One Instance Of Hoster At A Time.
