Yet Another Jukebox Program
ChalkyWhite:
After an evening using SKJ, my wife and I had an idea for stats whilst the songs are playing.
Traditional jukes sometimes have a top5 or 10 played tracks flashing past, which is normally only represented by the album and track numbers. Perhaps SKJ can scroll through the most popular tracks played ever, that week, or that day, and include the album cover? I would suggest this takes the form of an SKJ screensaver.
Last night "Something to Talk About" by Badly Drawn Boy must have been the most popular, but if the stat was to change to most played ever, then perhaps "Danger High Voltage" by Electric 6 would be up there, as my mates stick that on over and over again. ::)

That was about 2 weeks back. I doubt your drivers would be newer than mine at this point. And what's even more odd is that it's not just my machine, I've duplicated this problem across a number of different machines with various hardware configurations, but with enough juice under the hood to run any modern day app. The only absolute commonality between all the tested machines is that I used the SB Audigy card in each (running included drivers initially and latest drivers eventually to test).
Did you try more than one track, cuz it always works on first track played? Basically, here's the order of testing...
1) Make sure EAX is enabled via Creative's EAX Console.
2) Startup SKJB
3) Queue first song.. can wait for it to finish or just use Next Track if multiple songs are queued. If single song added, add another after first one is done or while playing.
4) It's the first song that plays fine, next and subsequent songs that are added will appear to be playing, but no sound output.
5) While SKJB still running, go check EAX console.. try change something, nothings's really there all settings will be blank.
6) Shutdown SKJB. EAX back to normal.
7)Startup SKJB. Anything will play again, but only for the first song.
Well, anyhow.. thanks for your efforts..

Sorry, that's exactly how I tested and it's still not doing it here. A while back, with an older version of their control, it WOULD 'lock' the soundcard. I'm wondering if you're not using an older version of the control still perhaps...... maybe look for any copy of amp3dj.ocx on your hard drive(s). Make sure you have just the one, dated the 8th of December.
Hope that helps!

Logging what songs are played has been on the to-do list for a while now. With the songs played logged to a file, stats like that will be very easy.
I'll see if I can elevate this feature up the list a little. ;)

It took me 3 days of searching for a good jukebox program before I found yours - congratulations on the best out there!
There are a few small features that I'm either not seeing, or that don't exist.
1) If you enter full view when typing a song number, can it close that view once/if all the tracks of that album are queued, or if the display is left idle for a set time period?
2) For those of us with dual monitors, can it remember which screen it was on when it last closed?
3) I swear there was a #3...
4) I can't get it to run under wine in linux. Has anyone tried this before and got it working?
SK Jukebox is by far and away the best album-based jukebox I've come across. VMJ is almost there, but as slow as a tortoise being led by a lethargic snail.
