RadioBOSS 6.0 [beta]

[djsoft]

Ok about the slow network is not, because I tried with another streaming server to discard and in that one connects immediately.

Streaming server does not affect track playback in RadioBOSS - it can't slow it down. But if the music itself is on a network drive, or you use MySQL database that is on a slow network/server this can cause problems.

playlist seems to not play the first track but starts at track 2 and then continues through the playlist leaving the first entry unplayed and no time shows for that first track. in the example screenshots the first track is bee gees stayin alive

The strange thing is that I play the song and it sounds already after I have started. But I will do other tests with another internet to discard. Although as I say, in other services that does not happen even having the same internet.

Today I had the same problem again, the error was reproduced when I gave it play, the volume was low, and I had to give it play again and it was solved... The strange thing is that if I play the song again everything works perfectly. Then it is impossible to detect because the error occurs at random.

Please try if this happens on the latest update. Currently we were unable to reproduce it.

seems that the playlist often keeps a track as a sticky at the top of the list, its plays the below tracks no problem but does not delete that first track even though it played it ok, the playlist is set in queue mode.
screenshot attached

What is amazing is that it worked perfectly with the previous version and I didn't change anything
Is this port 9001 if we have Mysql and Sql Lite or 3306

Good evening
I tested with IPV4, Msqlite, and Mysql and nothing worked.
I went back to version 5.9.4 and without changing anything it works
Good night

in this example screenshot, the track that played at 14:04:49 stays in the playlist, other tracks played after that one do delete themselves automatically, but that first entry just stays there until the playlist refreshes on the hour

seems that when autoamp is ON, it sometimes produces various pops and clicks on playback, especially on station ids, which are computer generated voice mp3 files

[ormston]

[ormston]

how is the tracklist repeat protection supposed to work. screenshot here shows not to repeat artist for 30 minutes, yet earth, wind & fire, george benson and james brown appears multiple times

Hi, Do not play two or more tracks consecutively is not working properly.
If there is a track (that does not play) between two files, because it may not exist or has been deleted, the two tracks are played, not so if these two tacks are together from the beginning and curiously if you do the process if there are more than one.
That is to say
Jingles, Song, Jingles (if song does not exist it does not work)
Jingles, Jingles, Song (if song does not exist, in this sequence it works)
Jingles, Song, Jingles, Jingles (if song doesn't exist, in this sequence it works)

Unfortunately, the screenshot does not provide any information about how the playlist was staerted initially (no log window is seen). Do you still experience this problem with the latest update?

seems that the playlist often keeps a track as a sticky at the top of the list, its plays the below tracks no problem but does not delete that first track even though it played it ok, the playlist is set in queue mode.

Before you said that the track is not played, can you please clarify what happens, it's not played or it's played but not deleted? Does it delete other tracks?

I tested with IPV4, Msqlite, and Mysql and nothing worked.
I went back to version 5.9.4 and without changing anything it works

Does it show you any error messages? Please click Settings->Open Settings folder, open Logs folder and send us the "databaselog.txt" file, this may help understand what's wrong.

in this example screenshot, the track that played at 14:04:49 stays in the playlist, other tracks played after that one do delete themselves automatically, but that first entry just stays there until the playlist refreshes on the hour

Did you start the second track manually or playlist plays by itself?

how is the tracklist repeat protection supposed to work. screenshot here shows not to repeat artist for 30 minutes, yet earth, wind & fire, george benson and james brown appears multiple times

It works only when you use the Track List feature, it doesn't work for tracks in the playlist: https://manual.djsoft.net/radioboss/en/using_track_list.htm

Do not play two or more tracks consecutively is not working properly.

It does not handle cases when the file does not exist. In order for it to work properly, all tracks in the playlist must exist.

We'll check if there are problems with this, thank you.
