PPlayer Backend hosted on SourceForge

I just moved the Backend files of PPlayer to SourceForge due to the bad performance of the other host.
To credit SourceForge I added their Logo onto the SongView-Profile:

The Wiki moved to SourceForge too because WetPaint just had too much adverts…
Its now available @ http://pplayer.wiki.sourceforge.net

The blog will be moved soon (having everything at atleast one point)
I’ll probably add a CMS on SourceForge to make some new features available!

greetings,
Pascal

Wiki updated and now hosted on Sourceforge

I just updated the wiki of PPlayer to match the changes of 0.9.
It’s now hosted on sourceforge as I’m going to merge every platform (Blog/Wiki/Code) on one place. And thats sourceforge:
http://pplayer.wiki.sourceforge.net/

greetings,
Pascal

0.9 alpha now available for testing

Hey there,
I uploaded the latest version of 0.9 alpha for testing. It’s only available trough the autoupdate-system of PPlayer.
I actually don’t want to present as much details about that release, because its sooo much to write…
I’ll make a full changelog about 0.9 when finishing beta status.

The known bugs are:

  1. If you move the slider while listening, it freezes => This bug is actually unfixable
  2. If you Drag’n'Drop an item on the ListViews PPlayer crashes => Unfixable too, waiting for AutoIt-Update

You should use the Bug-Tracker @ Sourceforge to submit bugs. They’re then fixed much faster!
The feature-request-tracker is also opened for ideas for upcoming versions.
(The features coming with 0.9 are completed – just debugging now)

So have fun with this release!
On wednesday I’ll probably release the beta version and next week should come the final!

I just finished working on 0.9.
The alpha version will be released this monday through the AutoUpdate-System of PPlayer.

There are many points to speak about so just wait until tomorrow and you’ll get any info ;)

So far,
Pascal

Working on 0.9

As you can see I haven’t posted anything for around 2 weeks.
The reason is that I’m working on 0.9, a very great release.
I can only tell you one thing about 0.9: One of the new features is the multilanguaged GUI.
My solution doing the translate the GUI isn’t working that way it was meant to.
So I need translators for 0.9 to get the GUI multilanguaged.
Any language except german and english is welcome.
The translation itself is easy. PPlayer works with an ini-file to lookup for the language. So just translate the ini.

Any other feature coming with 0.9 is very secret. I’m actually testing 0.8.9 with my betatesters and then go on to 0.9 released next week or later.

For those who get an “-1 Array”-Error: The bug is still fixed in the new version. The error is related to the SongView. But I’ll release a patch this weekend to fix the error.

So far,
Pascal
