Pub Jukebox / Re: Freezing

xzotic, it's not an "obvious bug" at all, just because you both have the same problem doesn't mean that its a problem with PJ, let me explain...
Most people (who are not programmers) don't understand that their operating system (windows) is not foolproof or bug free, they assume that because windows seems to be working ok that it must be the program they are trying to run that must be at fault, this is naive boomer thinking, its like when your dad used to thump the top of the TV when reception was bad, If you look back at my conversation with shorty you will see that I offered him help, I asked him to send me some of his music files to inspect, he refused, saying that he knew better and that his files couldn't be at fault!, there's no way to help someone that refuses to cooperate...

I have exactly the same problem. I've had this issue since I bought Pub Jukebox but I thought given it was such an obvious bug it would be fixed in an update. However an update has never come so I've just been doing a workaround which is just to make sure music is loaded within the first 10 seconds of firing up the program and then keep adding music to the playlist. As long as I keep adding music and the music doesn't stop it will keep playing and will be responsive to music selection.

As soon as the music stops, the whole interface becomes completely non-responsive and the only way to get out of it is to force close through Task Manager and restart.

The problem is exactly as the other poster here has explained so it is not isolated and it has nothing to do with the music files being played. It plays any music video file fine as long as you keep the playlist loaded with music. As soon as it runs out of music to play it freezes.

Additionally, it seems to freeze in the same way when you try and go into the system admin menu. It is responsive for around 10 seconds and then no response to the interface.

I would like to use the program more and would really like to see this issue fixed. If I have people over and it runs out of music it is annoying to have to reset it again and/or load it up with heaps of music just so it continues to operate.

I'm using the non-flash version (as the flash version doesn't work for me at all either) and a touch screen connected to a PC with the following specifications:
Intel Core 2 Quad CPU Q6600 @2.40 GHz
8Gb RAM
Win 10 x64
Pen and touch support with 6 points (nexio HID multitouch ATIO460-06)
Nvidia GeForce GTX 1060 3GB

Home Jukebox / Re: Adding track problems

Sounds like it might be something to do with wrong tags/artwork, what tool do you use to tag tracks ?
I think Home Jukebox has a built-in tagger function, try tagging with that maybe...

Home Jukebox / Adding track problems
« Last post by Corrosivehitman on September 16, 2023, 04:00:46 PM »
Hi
I have just added about 30 albums, I painstakingly changed all genres for each and every song as well as album artwork.
When I put them on though, majority of them don't have their artwork and the genres seem to have reverted back to what they were before I added them in.
Also there are a fair few albums that just aren't on there.
I'm not sure if I'm doing something wrong as I only got the jukebox last week

i have a update for you and what a load of fun its been lol

so after trying everything it seems windows 10 is causing the 2nd display problem and pub edition non java
i installed windows 8.1 and installed the graphics driver for the hd 5450 installed the java edition of pub jukebox
and now when the next track shows it works everything works perfectly
so if your having this same problem u might need to go to windows 7 or windows 8 and use the java edition to get it working

I think hdmi is ok for single screen, but for dual screen both have to be pure vga, i dont think a coverter will work (as the pc is still outputting to hdmi before being converted), logically it shouldn't make any difference, but it does.

i will try i do have some hdmi to vga converters so can do that the only way i can do vga to dvi is by using the graphics card for a test as the on board is only vga and hdmi

and i hope so to for a 5k jukebox

I would change the hdmi screen to vga first before changing the pc, if you search the forum this has caused problems for other users.

Ps: very impressed with both of your jukebox cabinets, look pro :-)
