Hey guys,

Just pointing out that on my BT2, whenever I change the path to my music, I get a new bogus album with the name of the path in my visualisation. I'm guessing it has something to do with the way Store works.

Ah, this is because of two things:
1) we don't currently remove albums that aren't in the path, as BT1
did.
2) we don't exclude the top level folder ( this is the one i assume
you're seeing ) from the possibility of being classified as an "album".
I might leave it this way, because sometimes I have some free tracks
floating around in my top level music folder, and sometimes people have
a lot.

Man, this re-write thing is annoying.. it was all working! this new one
isn't yet!
But the way the old one did it was just so weird, with these functor
things that i found in this other music project, man what was my brain
thinking.

Tom.

Well, the old bt1 version loads, plays and does everything, including crashing a lot.

The new bluetunes 2 exists only as source code at the moment, (and at this point is actually broken due to me re-doing the base library for it, and hopefully shall be fixed later tonight), but that raises a very good point...

There's this great project called CodeBlocks that said that their development sped up greatly when then started releasing "nightly builds"; pre-built EXEs of the source code as it currently stands, every night ( it's a very active project ), so that everyone, not just developers / people who have the bother to muck around with visual studio/SVN can test the latest cutting edge version and tell the developers what needs improving, and get excited about seeing a working thing, etc.

So I'll aim to do that, get it workininating again and post the first "weekly build" up.

Tom.

Ahh. Don't know why I thought everyone was talking about BT2 and not BT. Anyway, Yay! to the regular builds idea.
