DOSCab/WinCab Jukebox 3.0 beta 7 released.

Chris,
I think I've set up the files correctly. But I seem to have a problem in that when the program goes to display album art, the program bombs out.
If I open so that the first four albums displayed are albums (folders) that do not have album art, then the the default art displays correctly, the song lists display correctly, and I can play songs from those folders. If I page down and get to a folder that has a jpg file in the song folder, that's when the program shuts down and wants to send an error report to Microsoft (Windows XP).
My artwork is named, for example, "Let It Be Front.jpg" if the album/folder is the Beatle's "Let It Be". The .jpgs are various sizes, as many are scanned in, photographed, etc, depending on what I had for the albums (LP's) that I ripped.
I hope I'm being clear. Any quick suggestions?
It looks great in CD mode...hope I can work this out and use it in both modes.

Chris, I tried a smaller set of folders/albums and came did find that specific album art JPG's are causing WinCAB to abort. If I move those out of the folders, the CD skins comes up and works fine. Great, actually. Very nice work!!!!
Anyway, there apparently can be something about specific JPG files that can cause problems that terminate the program.
One such album cover jpg is
92kb
321 x 285
yet the following sized file works...
77.2kb
305 x 300
But yet I created a test JPG using Microsoft Paint that was >150K, and VERY rectangular, and it worked fine.
Any particular requirements on the JPG's that you're aware of?
Brian
Chris:
No... I use JPGs for the background, and they're much larger. More likely it's some error in the memory allocation for the cover art cache. Can you set DebugLevel = 5 in jukebox.ini, run it till it crashes and send me the jbdebug.log file?
Thanks!

I shouldn't do releases at 3am...
I found a stupid alignment bug on the default skin.. can't imagine why I didn't see this last night. I've fixed it in the archive; if you've already downloaded it and your artist name is too high on the default skin, get the fix from http://webpages.charter.net/celamantia/jukebox/wincab.zip and unzip the wincab.exe inside it over the version you have.
Sorry about that!
