Now and then when i start eJukebox, my settings are gone (background picture in album list, and album list colors etc) until i press "refresh list"...

Ah? I don't have this problem.
I haved lost my settings only the first time after the update, but since i've replaced the default settings by my personal settings, it's OK! :)

Hm, i've had this problem for a long while, ever since i started using eJukebox, in fact.

By the way, the default background pattern filled me with unspeakable horror. Or... well. That might be an exaggeration. But i didn't like it at all. Grey and ugly, and a repeating pattern even...

I'm not saying you should use my Magic Crumpled Plastic Bag (tm) image ;) --- but at least something else than the one that met me after installing the latest version.

Junk, do you know all the personal settings are in the file ejukebox.ini?
Can you see your settings in this file or not?

I notice that the order is a bit different, otherwise it's much the same. :p

Pirk - 10-25-2003 at 02:16 PM

Yes, it's almost the same, strange thing...
i can't guess what cause your problem. :P

The problem is you are clicking the albums button, to load the album list, while eJukebox is still starting up and the album list settings have not had a chance to be read in from the ini file yet.

Just wait a few seconds, after starting eJukebox, before clicking the albums button.


Also we did consider making your Magic Crumpled Plastic Bag image the default albumlist background image... however the only problem with is it is not long enough in height so tiles poorly when eJukebox's height is over 768.
