I'm running windows XP SP2, Winamp 5.32 and no errors. gen_cue.dll is in the plugin directory.

Humm never saw any message box. In the meanwhile I've restarted the computer and no messages box or whatsoever appeared.

I assume you are talking about notepad, and changing it from UTF8 to Unicode in the save options. Unicode in notepad is in fact UTF16 or at least some kind of 2 byte unicode. UTF8 should load the files but will be unable to show them properly. I haven't come across any 2 byte cue-files, but if you all think it is frequently encountered I could add it to the todo list just after making the entire plugin unicode-aware. Currently only the FLAC-part uses wide-strings but it must convert back to whatever encoding I use when Winamp queries.

I use Editplus but I think it uses a similar method while saving. And as you said, UTF8 loads but does not show the right symbols. 2 byte unicode files seem to simply be ignored. Since I listen to some Japanese music it would be a nice feature. But still.. In the other day I tried to add unicode to an old program I had made and it wasn't that simple...

Yes, it caches.

No hurry, is not something that crashes my computer!

In that case: a clear cache button would be great!

Native cue support will be the best thing winamp does for their user IMO. Downloaded, installed and removed v5.32 all within 5 mins. Good thing I didn't delete v5.24 installer back then. Or it will be pretty much screwed without a working cue player.

[DrO]

eh, your post doesn't really make sense especially the comment about 5.32 since i was under the impression that this one will work with 5.32...

[DJ Egg]

silz obviously only bothered to read the first post in the thread, and not further down to find the link to the updated Cue Player plugin, v0.56, which works perfectly with Winamp 5.32 . . . even though I'd already provided him/her with the direct links in their other thread.

I've since edited the first post to include a link to the updated working plugin.

[DrO]

ah, my bad since i hadn't bothered to look at silz's other post until just now and now it all makes sense

When I attempt to run the "in_cue.exe" file to upgrade the plug in, StopZilla reports it as something called "VirusBurst" and wants to delete it.

What gives?

[Clete]

For anyone else who might be running StopZilla (the best any spyware software I've ever seen, by the way), if you simply disable the spyware protection long enough to run the install file, the upgrade does in fact work with the latest version of Winamp. I don't know why StopZilla thinks this file is a threat but after scanning the file with AVG, I decided to trust it. I'm happy to say the results were good! Thanks to whomever is responsible for the upgrade! It seems to work great! Winamp is simply incomplete without this plug-in!

Hi etono,

first of all, your cue player is a great plugin.
One thing you could add is that for you Media Library Support, as there is no DATE keyword defined for cuesheets, you might use the Date specified in the mp3. Maybe with some other id3-tag information as well, qould be nice.
Best regards

grammaton

[spoonschbob]

don't know if metioned already but you should fix the issue, that when missing files are removed, the resolved cue-files are deleted as well...some kind of...annoying...

[pablo.see]

Another issue. When winamp is started by double-clicking the cue file, it hangs. But when we starting winamp by double-clicking playlist file, witch is calling cue file, winamp runs without problem. also when when winamp is running and we are clicking on cue file, winamp opens it without problem.

[Kiyouta]

Media Library support no longer works with Winamp 5.33
Probably due to the new Unicode media library?

I have the same problem.

If "unpack cue files when added" is enabled, nothing is beeing added to library.
Hope this will be fixed, soon :\

[DrO]

have you tried contacting the author directly to make sure that he's aware of the issue (rather than by posting here - may get a faster response that way)

-daz

[sebastianratz]

I cant find any contact information on his site.

[DrO]

it's in the readme.txt included in the installer (right at the bottom of the file)

[bazhef]

I can't get Cue Player 0.56 to install.
Each time i download the exe, it gives an error and won't install!!

i have also installed mp3cue.

Maybe i am wrong, but i thought that these programs enabled you to skip through a set and it showed the name of each track in the set that is on the cue sheet.
For example, i have a cd "Global Underground 10"
The cue sheet shows:

PERFORMER "VA"

I have this saved in the same folder as the cd file but when i listen to it i cannot skip throught the cd and the individual tracks are no listed anywhere.

Can anyone please offer me some guidance?
I'm on 5.32 btw
Thanks.

There's no DATE keyword, but most cue files use REM DATE instead.

@ ETONO

Alas, CuePlayer will need updating again for 5.34

It's nothing major, just that it needs updating to be unicode-compatible, otherwise it makes the title text for the Winamp icon in the Windows Taskbar revert back to ???????? when playing any filetypes with unicode characters in the title.

Full info/details here:

[pablo.see]

I'm reminding again bug (issue) in cue player

When winamp is started by double-clicking the cue file, it hangs. But when we starting winamp by double-clicking playlist file, witch is calling cue file, winamp runs without problem. also when when winamp is running and we are clicking on cue file, winamp opens it without problem.

[ETONO]

Apparently it had stopped sending notifications. Sorry about that.

So, there has been some problems during my absence?

Fixed some problem with the media library that Sebastian was talking about, however I forgot to update the download link on the page. Sebastian did not seem to get it to work though, possibly because he forgot to refresh the
ML view. If anyone else has problems with it (0.57) you should keep me updated.

I'll look into the problem you were talking about pablo.see.

[DJ Egg]

* Future plans:
---------------
- Unicode support


Alas, I've had to uninstall the plugin again because it still makes all unicode filenames/titles display as ???????? in the taskbar/systray with Winamp 5.34 :-(

Apparently, the fix is supposed to be a fairly simple one...
(see my previous post, 3 posts up, heh)

[dslava]

this is example of cue-file that doesn't work with this plugin, but work OK with mp3cue or with foobar player. can you please tell me why?

[DJ Egg]

Maybe change the "WAVE" to "APE"?
And I assume you've already installed the Monkeys Audio (APE) plugin, yes?

[dslava]

Yes i have monkey audio plugin installed. And this is for example cue-file that works perfect with CuePlayer plugin. Can't see any global difference between these files structures.

one more strange things - that the filenames in the "bad" playlist looks like

dm - see you - cd4 (cdmute18).cue,3Pшѕ”A~дФA~n


I don't know why it displays such strange symbols - and i think this is a problem. And i have many cue-files that looks like this in playlist with this plugin. Seems to be some problem with text-parser?

By the way the mp3cue plugin display filenames correctly. If you need some screenshots - let me know.

[DJ Egg]

Sounds like a unicode related problem.
Cue Player still doesn't support unicode (see my two posts further up the page).

[dslava]

DJ Egg: thank you!

So we'll have to wait.

[ETONO]

Hi there, dsalva!

Could you explain your setup. How do you add the files to Winamp when this problem occur? Tried opening the files using the Open-dialog in winamp? What is the complete path of the file? Tried renaming the file? What operating system are you running?

If there was something wrong with the text parser, you wouldn't get this far. Seems to be a problem about zerotermination on the strings.

[dslava]

hi!

I drag'n'drop from windows explorer (or from the file manager I use - Total Commander)

Originally posted by ETONO

Yes, with the same result

Originally posted by ETONO

It's E:\!\depeche mode - see you - cd4 (cdepeche modeute18)\dm - see you - cd4 (cdmute18).cue

Althought i tried to put it to the root directory also.

Originally posted by ETONO

Yes, i tried to rename it to dm.cue (and dm.ape accordingly). Windows xp sp2.

Here is screenshot of all the situation

[DJ Egg]

Although I'm not entirely sure, it could actually be due to a compiler/commandline parsing bug in 5.33...

See if it still happens with 5.34 (public beta available, see Sticky thread at top of forum; 5.34 final release due imminently).

[dslava]

Yes it still happens with 5.34 beta 1239

[DJ Egg]

So much for that theory then, lol.

[ETONO]

What happens if you manually fix the playlist entry? Does it play it then. Or are there any more problems?

[dslava]

One more thing: with the latest winamp beta even the cue-files that previously worked, now behave the same. What’s the most safe setting for the plugin?

I had checked all plugin options or cleared them, or tried to mix this options. Maybe I can find some configuration that will work. If someone have this plugin working - please share with me config info.

ETONO, what do you mean by manually fix the playlist entry? I can see the file info in the playlist (if you talk about screenshot), but i can change filename there.

PS - btw, sorry for my poor English, guys - I completely forgot this language.

[DJ Egg]

By "manually fixing the playlist entry" ETONO meant by right-clicking the playlist entry and selecting "Playlist entry (Ctrl+E)", then fixing the path+filename there...

[dslava]

DJ Egg
Now i get it!

I renamed
E:\!\depeche mode - see you - cd4 (cdepeche modeute18)\dm - see you - cd4 (cdmute18).cue,1Pшѕ”A~дФA~и

to the E:\!\depeche mode - see you - cd4 (cdepeche modeute18)\dm - see you - cd4 (cdmute18).cue,1

and so other files in the playlist - now it works as it should. but after reloading cue-file of course I still have hieroglyphs there. so does it mean that plugin somehow makes an error in cue-parsing?

[ETONO]

Then we have eliminated any problems in the text-parser. It doesn't play files it can't parse. The problem is getting the files to the playlist. Are you running any other plugin or is it just the standard + cue player?

[dslava]

ETONO, yes i have some other plugins here also - ape-files plugin, audioscrobbler plugin and some others - if you know some options to put the whole list here without typing their names manually - let me know. or i can screenshot'em.

do you think it can be result of plugin conflict? maybe i can install some kind of debug viersion of in_cue plugin?

[Kiyouta]

I'm having the same problem. Only 3rd-party plugins I have are the Monkey's Audio plugin and the VGM input plugin.

Windows XP SP2, Winamp 5.34 Final

[ETONO]

I have actually managed to reproduce the problem in Winamp 5.34 (final). I was using the beta and it _seems_ to be working ok there. I am on it
