Hi, thanks for the great program!

I am wondering if there is a way to change the cache location, or if you have fixed the problem of the cache filling indefinitely. Mine will keep filling until the drive is full (i.e. hundreds of songs, when it is set to only 15-20) and then freeze in place until I make room on the drive.

hotkeys and global hotkeys work super fantastic.. !!!
thnq!!!

hi! have u ever seen this? look i just forrmat mi pc and reintall the gw so i lost my playlist so im trying to make it again. now when i search for a music it plays once, but not a second, and up in the scroll name said STOPPED, why this happend?

How can I get global hotkeys on Windows 7 to work? When I click on the hotkeys button in the options-plug-ins tab nothing happens.

that means, the musicfinder is not working. what happens?

As said in the header. The function under -tools- Import a grooveshark playlist... does not work.
Can u fix this ? Cause i have lost all my music :/

new item for the view-menu:
1)'view playlist' = Ctrl+Y,
2) 'view all numbers of album' = Ctrl+N
3) 'view artist info' = ctrl+i
4)'Go to saved songs folder' Ctrl+G =in Windows Explorer
5) F8: 'changing save-folder-path' = ctrl+H: (='change save-folder'-button/dialogbox)
6) 'find better version' = ctrl+B

new items for playlist-menu:
1) F11: view list of 'deleted songs' = possibility does not yet exists!!!
2) F12: activate a new screen 'save song as'-dialog screen (F12 is also a Microsoft office 2007 possibility so this is very know)

New functionality:
1) alt+enter (= windows functionality to view 'details song'information-dialogscreen and close with escape-button) possibility to view an icon/yes when the song is already saved + the location of the song
2) go forward/backward in seconds into the song with 'arrow right/left'

This will be much better to navigate (and than all Function-buttons will be used)!
Thanks a lot!
Karel

also the normal navigate buttons please: home and end-button + de 'delete' button to remove a song + is it possible to activate a song with the 'enter'-button to start the song if I navigate to it..

+ can there be a search into the existing playlist so that not always a song need to be add to the playlist with ctrl+f

+ also a shortcut ctrl+p to have a dialogscreen to watch all existing playlist instead of the button-arrowright (because into the playlist the arrow-buttons also do not work..)

+ problems with translating to dutch: not all words are into the list https://translations.launchpad.net/groovewalrus

thanks a lot..
also blind student people of me will be happy than!

Please fix the possibility to navigate in the songlist by arrow up/down.

Because now with F4 the song always starts playing the next song(F1 previous song), but I want to go up/down to choose the song that I want to play (when the other song is running in the play-mode)

Thanks to work this out.

Note: up/down arrow is possible into the ctrl+F search-dialogscreen!

I added a folder for my music and it got stuck at a certain song. I changed the word "être" to "etre" and then the index continued. Thought I'd help since I just discovered this nice piece of software. Cheers.

A frequent error seems to be that the playlist ends up playing a song by the correct artist but the actual song played is completely different from the title listed in groovewalrus.

So I wanted to move copy the music on m playlist to another folder, so I thought, "Hey, why not the Sync plugin?"

It doesn't work with some files. It doesn't freeze or anything, it's like it's trying to transfer it, but it takes forever (meaning that it doesn't do it). It's for certain songs. I think it's the language problem.

For example, this: ???? RESISTANCE http://gwp.turnip-town.net/?a=????&s=RESISTANCE

Some other songs from ???? doesn't sync either. I end up having to delete them from my playlist and then starting the sync over again.

The weird thing is that the songs that stall the plugin are correctly moved to the folder. o.o

Can you fix this so that I don't have to keep deleting one-by-one the ones that don't work?

Also, another problem. Every time I close groovewalrus, I get a error popup that says "See the logfile 'C:\Program files (x86)\Groovewalrus\gw.exe.log' for details."

It's getting annoying....

BTW, I am using Windows 7 Home Premium. 64-bit.

thanks.

Hi, I'm running gw 0.329 from source on linux (python 2.6.5) and there are a few bugs I've noticed:
gw will sometimes (it has happened multiple times) stop working properly with this error message on the command line:
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "./gw.py", line 1382, in OnTimer
pf_song_id = prefetch.PreFetch(self).GetSongId(pf_artist, pf_song)
File "/main_utils/prefetch.py", line 117, in GetSongId
return song_id
UnboundLocalError: local variable 'song_id' referenced before assignment
I had a quick look and it looks like query_results in GetSongId is empty sometimes, and so it not executing the if statement. This happens when trying to start some songs (unfortunately I can't find an example right now. edit: "Breathe Me" by Sia), and means they won't play (the music stops, and clicking the play/pause button just causes the same error to occur) and the GrooveWalrus indicator goes yellow. A suggestion would be to at least just skip the song (but mark it in some way, as is being done) so that the music can keep going, since there doesn't appear to be any way to fix the failed song other than moving on.

Two similar error occurs on some songs (similar because the song stops playing and gw ends up stopped on the failed song, although the song is not highlighted afterwards), tracebacks:

• http://pastebin.com/eanXZXxU (e.g. "40 years back/Come" by Royksopp)
• http://pastebin.com/qmPd0J7v (e.g. "Neighbours #1 (Tunnels)" by Arcade Fire)

(nb for the first one, I have had some problems using eyeD3 (as a stand alone program) and it failing to read some genre tags correctly with a similar error message, but I can't really help more than that.)

Also, sometimes gw will sometimes crash with an X Windows error (error message: http://pastebin.com/XndeWPtZ ) although it seems to happen fairly randomly (not with any specific song or anything), and not too often.

And lastly, a small (easy?) one, I don't think '/' are escaped (to %2F) in song names, which causes the tinysong.com/s/... request to fail (with no error message or anything, except the song doesn't play)

But, I still really like GrooveWalrus, it's one of the best music programs out there.

Im getting the same error since two days ago... «grooveshark error: failed to parse sessionID :( i uninstalled it, installed it again, deleted the registry, etc... nothing works... help !! (I cant download any new song)

I liked it a lot. I like to try something new. And it was a turn of GrooveWalrus music player. By the way, at shared files SE filecraft.com there are a lot of different players and skins (I just like to change them a lot)

Great to hear that there is a truly portable version planned! This sounds great to me! Can't wait to see this great tool being portable. Thank you for your great work!

when a playlist is saved, somehow the name of the artist is changed to the name of the song. so, when i reload it, it just can't find the songs anymore. i'm using 0.319.

i don't know if this was suggested before. anyway, i think that'd be very useful if there were a ping tool on groovewalrus, so we can see if grooveshark is down when songs are not playing. or something like a red or green sign, don't know.

I have an audio system built into my house that uses my computer as the source, and is split throughout the house with a bunch of 1/8" headphone extension cables which are connected to computer speakers in each of the various rooms of that house that require music. I love playing Grooveshark while I'm working around the house, and would love the capability to control the player's basic features (fwd song, back song, volume up/down, etc) from the computer in my kitchen (so I don't have to walk to the downstairs back bedroom where the source music computer resides).

Is there a remote control for the Groovewalrus client that can expose itself via HTTP?

I use the Foobar HTTP plugin and used to use the WinAmp HTTP plugin for this purpose when I was playing my local music collection around the house, but I now want to upgrade to Grooveshark!
