Possibly integrating something like Milkdrop or maybe a slide show of album art or a user-defined pictures folder?

With the library I'm using now I don't have ready access to the sound data to get visualizations that are related to the music.  A slide show is something that's been planned, just haven't gotten to it yet.  I don't know what Milkdrop is, I'll have to look it up.

Not likely.  A) These wouldn't be found in the mechanical jukeboxes I'm emulating and (more importantly) B) I don't know how to do it.  :) (If I ever solve B, A won't really be an issue...)

Thank you for the good words!

Hey Chris!

How's the new version coming along?  As you know, my problem has been fixed, so I'm just more curious than anything...  ;)

Hope things are going well for you!

I'm still working on it.  I think I'm going to have to back out some of the half-finished features and just release what I have, or at least make that alpha executable that I posted "official" since no one's reported any new problems with it.

Well, as Ralfx mentioned,  there is still the problem with filenames that contains non-english letters.  The tag-info from these files are not read at all.  So you end up with "Various Artists" as the artist and the last word after the "-" in the filename as the song name. 
I also would like to be able to make the titlestrips scroll vertically in addition to horizontally.

Other than that, great work as always.  I'm really impressed with what you have done so far.  :applaud:

I think I've found the source of this problem, actually; I'm working on it now.
