EJukebox v5.68 Beta2 w/ShowCase and Shelf3D panning
the Internet Image "ShowCase" right click link stopped working due to server changes. This beta fixes that. this also adds mouse panning for more of
a 3D effect for the ShowCase.
it also adds panning to Shelf3D. if you try this beta please let me know how you feel about the Shelf3D panning.
to install this 5.68 beta2 make sure you have v5.66 or 5.67 installed and then shutdown ejukebox and download and save the attached file to
C:\EJukebox\ejukebox.exe replacing the old file.

Thank you Audiosoft for this new beta. trying it, it seems the shelf 3d is not updated anymore, it is only loaded once then can't be updated for me.
otherwise it shift to left and right when mouse over.
i pasted v5.68beta over the v5.66 exe. it's not a problem thought?

5.66 to 5.68 beta is ok.
i have noticed the shelf stops animating on click and will not update sometimes. it is a crash of flash when allot of albums in shelf. will probably
remove the panning in shelf as it can be annoying but will leave it for the showcase feature.

well sorry Audiosoft, it's OK now: I see the new "vertigo" effect!
maybe it's a bit strange, but not so bad.
I noticed that if i reduce EJ then when i restore it, the shelf don't move anymore (using mouse wheel) until i clicked on a album in it then it's ok
again.

Beta2 is up! it adds an easing effect to the panning in the ShowCase and Shelf3D
so when you mouse-in it pans smoothly to the position instead of jumping immediately to it.
btw i just noticed the lyrics site is down...anyone know of any good lyrics search sites?
also if you don't like the panning on shelf3D and would prefer it work like before please let me know

What site and do you have it integarted into ejukebox?
It would be a nice to have a lyrics screensaver or if could appear on the second monitor. It could use the lyrics found in the tag first and maybe
later a lyrics server specified in EJ.

it currently uses http://lyricsdot.ru/ for the right-click Lyrics link.
need a new one that is as good. lyricsdot.ru was really good. if can find one that works like a xml or an rss feed then we can display the lyrics any
way we want.
thinking about the lyrics screensaver. maybe the screensaver should be fullscreen shelf3d with lyrics scrolling on it. or instead of a screen saver we
could display it in the songlist.
or we could just have a single line lyrics scroller on the now playing maybe where the album name is.
