Title: arcade video jukebox
Post by: sodapopinski on February 23, 2005, 08:10:29 pm
has anybody had problems with arcade vido jukebox? I find when i make a large playlist, the first song finishes, claims its still playing and wont proceede. If i cant get around this, is there any other jukeboxes similar to this one? having coin input  and seperation of albums. I also like the free part of it.

I descovered that it was not  the program, it was my mp3s. I ripped them all with windows media. soon after my computer got screwed, i burnt them all and reformated. After i put the files back on. Now any jukebox i use the song freezes 1 second before it finishes. Has anybody heard of this? mabey from the burning? if you can , please help. It will be a long painful process re-ripping.

probably a long shot here... but...

whats the chance that you have a virus thats trying to write to each one when it finishes and they are set to read only (cd-rom files copied to you computer get this tag set everytime).

heck, it could be your mp3 codex is trying to set some flag... or some counter in the file itself.

Set one to read/write (right click on file, properties) and see if that one is 'fixed' then try and figure out what changed and if you care if the others are 'fixed' after listening to them.

I found out my problem. it seems that ripping them to a windows media audio file was the problem, all the .mp3 formats worked fine. So, i got a mp3 plugin and the problem is fixed. Something for people to consider when ripping though.
