Bugs found so far (I will add found bugs to this post until I release a new beta build):

~~Error 132001 will be displayed sometimes when importing songs~~
~~Very large playlists (200+ songs) are only imported partially (might be related to above issue)~~
~~Turning dark mode on/off and changing tint colors will switch to another tab if queue is empty~~
~~Deleting multiple songs will not remove the song files so that deleted songs reappear after refreshing the songlist~~
It is not possible to cancel media library import and deselect once selected tracks
~~Changing songs with continuous play enabled will reset the stop button~~
~~Deleting a song will also delete playlists this song is part of~~

Hi Peter love the fact I can have this great program on my iPhone 6+ ❤
Problems found so far
Problem 1
When number of songs are loaded that contain TC data with auto play next song selected , using lyrics display screen first song plays fine with TC data working but when next song gets loaded and starts playing automatically the TC data does not work unless you stop and start the song.

Problem 2
When the last song in que completes playback and auto play is enabled the program shuts down or quits.

Layout problem
The Auto play button is too close to stop start, it should be on opposite side as it could or most probably will cause embarrassment on stage.

Thing I miss is foot control of audio mute feature which is very useful when involving the crowd.

Thing I absolutely LOVE ! The TEMPO CHANGE absolutely useful please can you add it to IPAD version.
Only to make it absolutely useful it needs to be able to be foot controled for live performing like VOLUME and pitch shift to some degree.
GREAT JOB that’s it for now
Regards Damir

Bazz02 Did you figure out the issue with Media crashing?

If not, I finally had this same thing happen. This is what I done to get it to work on my iPad.
In iTunes right click on a song and from the drop down list, select “Song Info”
Then add an artist name; it don’t matter what you put there, it can be your name.
Then sync it back to your iPad.

What exactly does not work with the import from media library?

coopdawg

I’m on an iPad Pro and I can import using Media Library/songs with no issues.

Bazz02 This is a crash and I can see some crashlogs related to song import. I am not sure what causes this yet, but I will investigate.

Damir Thanks for your findings.

Problem 1: I will take a look at this
Problem 2: I can't reproduce it, but I can see a crashlog that might be related to this, so I guess I can fix this.

Your Suggestions: You are right, mute/unmute command is missing, will add it. Tempo change is a tricky one as it would change a lot of internal timers when you change it during playback. I will see what I can do.

Your remark regading iPad: Stage Traxx 3 runs on iPhone AND iPad, so just install it on your iPad.

Peter,
Add song/Media/Songs listed ok.Select songs ,press done and Stagetraxx disappears.
Cheers Barry

Sorry disappears meaning it jumps to the iPad home screen.
Latest Ios.

New beta build 2013

Fixes

Hopefully fixed import from iTunes problems
Fixed: Changing songs with continuous play enabled will reset the stop button
Fixed: Deleting a song will also delete playlists this song is part of
Fixed: Crashes reported during playback
Fixed: Switching themes will change current tab
Fixed: Files not being deleted when selecting multiple songs to delete

Bugs in this version

~~Import still leads to crashes when trying to import untagged files~~
~~Uncommon unicode characters at beginning of song titles can lead to crashes~~
~~TC lyrics do not scroll in second song when continuous play is engaged~~
~~Layout seems to jump between landscape and portrait mode when hitting start / stop while the device is lying flat on the table~~
~~sometimes playback does not stop at end of song~~

Other changes planned

The iOS Media library dialog needs to be replaced with a custom dialog due to issues (no deselect, no select all, no cancel)
~~light background for edit song dialog to make lyrics editing easier on the eye~~
move the continuous button away from the play button
when importing many songs add option to create a playlist automatically for these songs
additional pedal commands for mute, pitch change and possibly tempo change
~~add button to add song on top of queue~~
add ability to view played songs

Peter,
Prog.still crashing when trying to import from media library.
Thx Barry

Bazz02 Barry, does this happen with a big import or even if you try to import a single song? And if the latter, does it happen with every song?

Spelolle Is this still happening with build 2013?

The tagging suggestion is a good one and already on my todo list. I don't think I can add it in version 3.0, but it will definitely come with one of the next feature updates.

Btw, I will not be able to work on new updates for the next two weeks, but I will keep an eye on the forum and note down anything you guys find. So please keep up the testing.

I will update the post for build 2013 with a consolidated bugs list to keep an overview.

Hello Peter.
I have been using ver two and now I am testing ver 3, and I have found the same crash, when importing a great number of song, more than 800, but I know, you know it.

An Idea.
I have different sorts of performance, and a way to change the tags in playlist, for a beter search. For exemple, search online for Elvis, and the search critrria, is grupper together. Aldo, forcexample, tag with other searchable words, so you can search ”rock” and Elvis and other artist Will be grouped after each other, in the playlist.
Me, for example, have so many backtracks, so I can have all, and then do a Quick search.
This feature, should also work well, for dance, where you change music style, many times, and you want, lets say, Walz. Do a search, and you ser many, to Choose from.
Hopp you follow my Idea.

I really like, tempo change, perfekt for dance performance.

You are doing a very god job, and I would gladly buy your upgrade.

Thanks

Egen I Used Add songs, and Media library, i crashes. Ond song, workshops well, but i I mark several, just a few is Adde, befors crash. Songlist, crsshes imiditely.

I use an iPad, latest uppdate.

Spelolle

Difficult to write in English with a Swedish keyboard and spell check, hope you understand my message.

peter

coopdawg So you experienced this crash when your songs had no tags set?

esebban Migration will be possible in a later beta version.

esebban

Hello
I have the version 2 and I have all my set in with lyrics etc ... is it possible to reimport from previous version ?`

Thanks in advance
Kind regards

coopdawg

peter, Yes. Everything was working great when importing from one of my playlist. Then I went to import from another playlist and after selecting the song and selecting “done” ST3 program would close by itself. So I began looking at the two playlist and realized that the playlist that worked had the “artist” included in the song info, and the playlist that wouldn’t import had no “artist” included in the song info. So I added an artist name in song info in iTunes then reloaded the songs on the iPad. The songs would then import as expected.

esebban

peter Thanks

Bazz02

Peter,
I have no tags in any songs.Will tag a few in ITunes and sync back.
Didn’t tag any as Vers2 seemed to work ok without tags.
Thx Barry

Where can I see screenshots of iPad. My iPad4 (not air) cannot run ios11.
Thanks

peter

coopdawg This is a Great finding. Now I know how to reproduce this and I will be able to fix it.

Bazz02 Yes, songs are imported and stored in Stage Traxx. I had to deal with too many support requests regarding syncing issues and lost songs due to iTunes. Having all songs in Stage Traxx will get rid of these problems.

JDSMUSIC Sorry I did not make screenshots as the layout is not finished yet. But it looks similar to the iPhone, only bigger.
