PPlayer (finally Open-Source!)

[i542]

Hey

First of all, i don't like the idea of paying for it either.

(...)

One more turned to the whiteside

PS: Thanks for showing me where the edit button is.

You welcome.

I agree with you, why pay for something like this when there's free software like iTunes or Windows media player... "so detailed GUI"?

GUI: A lot of labels and buttons.

yess...4 users think it should be free...

In some cases you get messages about paying 5 but on the download page (the page with the "eula") you can read:

QUOTE

License:

PPlayer comes with a full working 7-Day Trial license.

After 7 days youre required to enter your e-mail for validation.

If youre successful your license will be updated to Premium.

Pascal, don't you dare to lie to them!!! When you enter your e-mail, you will get e-mail 'pay' and SPAM!!!

Anyone else thinking releasing an AutoIt program you have to pay for is useless as any script kiddie with 3 brain cells can decompile it and remove any protection?

I don't think thats right but mentally you're junger

As I said "In some cases you get messages about paying 5 but on the download page (the page with the "eula") you can read:"

And that email is that case...

That spam thing is more than stupid I don't need to say anything to this.

The GUI wasn't loaded that full from the beginning.

But adding things with the coordinates is not that difficult.

@ Obi-W00t and i542 you can crack the player if you want and post all of the code.

I thought we're not in kiddie WoW or CSS forums...

Pretty sad

Pretty sad

But this is sad when you make people pay for it, which the whole thing doesn't take much skill to make, instead of sharing the code and let people learn from you as well as you learn from others by people improving your code. That's the spirit.

I agree with you, why pay for something like this when there's free software like iTunes or Windows media player... "so detailed GUI"? I didn't find the Gui all that amazing, it's unique though... I like how it looks simple but still has everything needed.

I would recommend a few changes, the first is that in the main window I find the Idle... Idle.. Idle.. Idle..... Idle... very annoying. What's the point of the program telling us it's not doing anything? I would rather just know when it is doing something.. just my opinion though.

One possible recommendation is getting rid of the slider at the bottom of the PlayMode GUI, I didn't find any use for it and having something useless on a GUI is pretty hideous. Unless I just didn't find the use for it....

One bug I got was that the seek bar didn't work.. When I started the song, the song played for six seconds and then the slider/label time updated.. And after that it just stayed at six. The last thing, assuming the timer is fixed I would have it so that it doesn't show "00:03:12" and would show instead: "3:12"...

Good work altogether though

I see you're able to post correctly...

Those label showing the state of the player ("idle", "playing") is from the beta for testing.

I'll remove it in upcoming versions because it's no longer needed.

That slider is for changing the similar bands the player looks for.

Slider on 1 means 1 similar band s.o.

The Playmode GUI is new and not complete yet. I'll add the required labels there.

The thing with the timer is strange...

It gets updated after song info is loaded and then every second...

The label could be changed to 3:12 - I'll put the required setting into the settings.

Thanks

Make a better menu, it's annoying when it pops up to say you have to right click.

[Pascal257]

It's the time it took.

I don't want the player copied one by one -- actually its more than 2,2k lines and 2 weeks of pure coding etc.

Thats why I would send parts of the player per email...

Whats the problem??

Why do people need to spam this thread because of a misunderstanding?

Everyone should know now that its free to use.

And free to get the code...

[Achilles]

any script kiddie with 3 brain cells can decompile it and remove any protection?

How? I've tried decompiling it but no luck there... I guess I only have two brain cells

Heh I don't know how.

There were to much buttons on the place so I added a button with context menu.

But I don't know how to open the context menu from the button.

Plus who would pay for this Player when iTune or WMP 11 can burn and get songs from CD & much more.

I dont use CDs anymore so I thought why implementing CD-functions?

You should take a look on the PlayMode-GUI thats the special thing of PPlayer that WMP and itunes etc don't have.

Ummm, I was going to say use GuiRegisterMsg() in some way but on second thought that probably wouldn't work. How about something like this

If GuiGetMsg() = $menuButton then MouseClick("Right")

Kind of a cheap way of doing it but I think it would work...

Nice idea

I'll use this until I find a more "skilled" way to do this ^^

Thanks

Edith:

And a little questions: Why is Jon working on an Obfuscator?

Edit2:

Title: AutoIt Error

Text: Line 0 (File "C:\Program files\PPlayer\resource\database.exe"):

$A4FA560A5600C =&$SA24A5F007

$A4FA560A5600C =^ERROR

Error: Error in expression.

That error is caused by the obsfucator...

I'm on to find it.

Could you tell me where you got this error?

1. As my doctor says, I am

smarter than whole AutoIt forum, just I don't use it.

As a fact, I started using AutoIt v2.64 when I was 8.

2. Spam thing? Dude I have more than 1000 spams since I gave my e-mail to you.

3. Nope if you use Koda or GuiBuilder.

4. It won't be necessary. I will use my StarPlay.

Ok congratz then you could stay out of this topic please?

To 2:

You subscribed with your domain adress but showed me your spams on google.

So you have more than 1 adress coming onto your google account -> more spam.

And your email is published on your website readable by spammingbots etc.

Those spam doens't come from me so shut up.

To 3:

You don't understand me right?

It's possible to add things pure with coordinates...

To 4:

Have fun with your project.

Then you should see how much time it costs...

Oh I see your player hasn't nearly half of the features mine has...

Lots of work will come to you if you want to concurrent mine

I don't want a flame war so I'll repeat myself:

Please stay out of this topic.

The menu problem is fixed now, thx Bert.

I should take a look on the other things of the helpfile

To "to 2": I have only one address with domain name (me@i542.net) and it points to Gmail. I used it so far only in login for PayPal (they are writing spam?) and Download.hr (they now really don't wrote spam.)

To "to 3": I know.

To "to 4": I don't think so, Pas. As you can see, my is in beta and yours is too complicated (I already give copy of StarPlay to install on all PC's in dad's company and they are pretty happy with what they got. I also gave copy of PPlayer to my friend computer god and he thinks yours is too complicated for begginer, so shut up).

To "flame war": Wanna play Worms World Party ?
