Try this and see if it cures anything
shutdown ejukebox
open ejukebox.ini
change the [Track]Current=# to a different number
save the ini
run ejukebox.exe

if it doesn't work please u2u me the right click white error you get, if there is an error, and that path

No difference.
I can't give you the error on the white screen, as EJ has overtaken the overlay, so I just get play song etc...

Audiosoft, maybe this debugger could help me to solve "my" bug too? (display messed up on song changes)

Hmmm...
Even on the internal player it's keeps alternating items.
When I advance songs there is a change, now it alternates the new song cover
A
Cover168
A
Cover313
A
Cover168
A
Cover313
Interestingly, if I right click on the white window and hit 'edit' it still brings me to edit the original song that EJ was playing upon load.
(occasionally I'll also see something like:
A
B
Cover158
Cover313
etc)

Pirk, no not this debugger window...your bug is maybe because the skin is too much for IE9 beta? or too many graphical resources for your win7

i tried with other skins (still IE9..), but the same problem occurs occasionally. surprisingly since i'm running your exe with the debugger, my bug
don't occurred yet!
[edit] well it occured once, just after my reply.. like if as soon as my PC is doing something else than EJ, then it pains to update EJ again.

Pirk, it could be the album list taking up graphical resources. make sure there are no filters in albumscroll.dis.
CiXel this might fix it for you...

well my albumlist was/is closed, but the bug occurs despite this.
I'll try to track the bug in the system ressource monitor:

Audiosoft, Thanks for this exe "without back.jpg".
i'm trying it.. the display frozen once as i skipped the Up Next song manually. so this time when it frozen the now playing song was not changing.
until now no freezing on song changes..
..EJ frozen once on song change: the new song in now playing was a artist with 26 albums. i think EJ frozen while it was trying to load the albums in
the shelf3d.
..twice
I noticed EJ can also freeze when i list the Most Popular Songs: a long songlist requiring too much resources, i suppose!? however with this exe it
seems EJ freeze less often on song changes.
I also noticed some strange ejukebox entries in the windows mixer:

wow that is weird. do you get a new volume for every time the song changes?
freezing is really mostly a problem on long songlists with the shelf open yes?
i'm working on threading the songlist created carousel/shelf3d's loading so it doesn't freeze up
and the songlist shows up faster for things like newest songs

no new volume every time, just the last one is "updated" on song change (artist name).
well effectively sometimes long songlists can be a problem, but as i don't make long songlists very often, that relativize...
to my eyes, the more real problem is when i let ejukebox to work for me (90% of the time..) it suddenly freezes, with the associated display disorder
on song changes while i do not interact. it's like if the jukebox or my PC was outdated, obsolete, or handicapped!
PS: it seems the winter arrives on EJukebox.. guitars are swirling in the falling snow!!

so it is the now playing inactive songlist loading that is causing it?
try this exe...it makes it threaded so that the songlist displays as fast as it does when shelf/carousel are disabled...while the shelf/carousel are
enabled.
should stop ej from hanging while loading the shelf/carousel

well not only.. 100% sure that when EJ freezes it's always while the display is changing, but not always at the same moment or for the same songs or
albums.
-if a specific event frozen EJ, then repeating the same case just after, EJ don't freeze anymore for this animation.
-i noticed that EJ can suddenly freezes on song change even with not many albums to load in the shelf.
-when EJ freezes the ejukebox.exe process don't use the processor at all during around 10 seconds: "flat electrocardiogram!" Not responding. Why???
I don't know... during these 10 seconds the display is messed up always in the same way:
-Each Time i close EJ using the database optimizing option, the compacting database message box is not responding for a while.
Thanks for the shelf/carousel new thread. unfortunately it seems EJ can still freeze in some cases, the same cases than before: sometimes when i
manually skip the up next song, on song change just before the shelf is updated, or even it can freeze while the now playing panel is updated (none
cover, background in back).
-the proportion of freezing is maybe around 1/12 songs.
however with this exe i noticed an improvement when EJ is loading the shelf with many albums. no more freeze in most of the cases. i hope it's not
totally psychological!
it's like if something is blocking EJ, randomly? i don't think so. sure there is a reason: hardware, software? perhaps each time the CIA, KGB or
entitled are looking in my datas?!!
PS: Now you can take a digestive!
NB: if you drink the entire bottle, you'll not able to solve my problem before 1 or 2 days!

since the latest updates, i have 2 miniatures for ejukebox in the windows 7 menu bar. one of them seems to be useless, and invisible when i click on
it!
PS: it seems the invisible box show up only after EJ has frozen once. then this box remains until i close EJ.

with that exe songlists show up faster. things like newest songs and genres benefit more obviously. the songlist loads BEFORE the shelf instead of
after the shelf. that lets you look at the songlist while it is doing the shelf loading part.
Pirk, i wonder if there is any pattern? is that with winamp or internal for audio?
CiXel and Pirk,
right click ejukebox.exe in taskmanager and tell it to run at normal priority
and see if relieves the white square and freezes for you.
I only raised the priority to high by default to stay 'above' the album list preloading but i could make it change it back after done preloading.

i tried to right click on the ejukebox process to set it to normal, but no success: access denied.
i looked into the albumlist menu: preloading is already disabled.
| Quote: | | Pirk, i wonder if there is any pattern? is that with winamp or internal for audio? |
i use the internal player exclusively since a few months.
i wonder why ejukebox stop to respond, what can cause that?
Thanks for the help.
PS: your question about the player pushes me to try to use winamp again: excellent idea! by experience i know winamp is excellent to preserve the
system ressources. maybe media player is my problem...
