My attempt at a WoW music player, hopefully mine will turn out better than the others out there ;).
- FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS:
Q) Why does background music occasionally play along side my music?
A) Blizzard has special points called "Musical Moments" that force special music to play over everything including PlayMusic() which this and all other music addons use. There is no known way to stop it yet...
Q) What should I do if I find a bug or if the playlist maker crashes?
A) Post a comment here with the Error Details (line number, file and error msg in WoW or what windows says when it crashes), Operating System you're on (XP, 2000, Vista?), if you have .NET Framework 2 or better and any steps to reproduced the problem.
Q) I keep getting Exception from HRESULT: 0x800A004C (CTL_E_PATHNOTFOUND) when trying to run the Playlist Maker...
A) This means that the program could not find a folder called Music in the same folder as Playlist Maker. Make sure it exists (case sensitive) and try again.
Q) Playlist Maker crashes as I run it with no error message.
A) This could be because it failed to register the dll before trying to perform commands. Try running the included regsvr.vbs and try again. Also make sure you have .NET Framework 2.0 or better installed! You can get it at http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?familyid=0856EACB-4362-4B0D-8EDD-AAB15C5E04F5
Q) The names of Artists/Albums/Songs in MusicCommander are wrong, they should be _____.
A) More likely than not, the ID3 tags were not set properly. I recommend MusicBrainz, it'll gather info on each mp3 and retag it properly to have all the right information.
- CHANGELOG NOTICE:
Changelog tab not always accurate as curse-gaming seems to be having issues recognizing whats new and whats old.... not matter how many times I change or delete stuff... Newest information can be found in the comments.
- OPERATING SYSTEM NOTICE:
Although this mod is capable of running on Linux and Mac, I do not have the means to make a playlistmaker for these operating systems. I have the knowledge of perl to do it in linux if id3lib is installed but I don't have a box to test and dev it on. If anyone from the community would like to make playlistmaker for linux or mac, feel free to get a hold of me for details on the formatting and getting it implemented!
Playlist Maker is developed using Visual Basic .NET 2005 Express and UltraID3Lib.
