DOSCab/WinCab Jukebox 3.0 beta 7 released
DarkKobold:
Chris-
Just curious - Do you know how much memory the system requires when indexing a large number of music files? To minimize the affect of damage to the flash card, I am only using a 20 MB swap file, w/ 64 MB of onboard ram.
Oh, and the large music directory will come from a network-mounted hard drive.

Most real jukeboxes will actually silently accept the entry without duplicating the song in the queue, happily taking your money; this works because they don't show what's in the queue. Kind of the "dirty little secret" of jukeboxes. WinCab really should behave in the same fashion: not erroring out, just accepting the entry and silently dropping it.

This is from their mechanical roots. They used a mechanical toggle to select each song. It was reset when the song was played. Multiple attempts so select a song just ate your money as Chris mentioned.

Thenasty:
could I use HIEW to remove "The Big Prize" text ?
DrewKaree:
Any way to use specific fonts? I'd like to use something different and I believe if I'm reading correctly, this isn't possible.
The text is kinda small, but I can deal with that....I'm not liking the split of a CD past a certain number of songs - for instance, I've got a Dean Martin disc that splits out to THREE separate discs. Is there a workaround for that, or something that may be addressed in the future?
