My Beatles Jukebox
« on: August 19, 2020, 02:31:26 pm »
I have been stuck at home and have been working at putting a Jukebox together.  I started with getting Bigbox to chose from different genre.  Then used DWJukebox and created vertical skins.  DWJukebox is an amazing program.  The only problem I have encountered is the database not originally reading correctly.  I have gotten around that by using excel to import and edit the file.

Very nice, how did you go about writing screen?

When you say DW didn’t read files correctly what did you mean. I had an issue where albums seem to split but just run them through a MP3 tag program called AR free of the web which sorted the issue.

I used the free program GIMP to make the background.  When the database updates DWJukebox puts special characters behind some of the fields.  I have used an mp3 editing program to make sure the mp3 tags are all correct.

Well it’s a good job you made of the screen, have a copy myself but not got around at looking how to make a new themed screen.
