Re: Audiophilia - The shntool frontend, v0.0.1 released, alpha testers needed

Alright, jcrab and bowman...I think I've figured out what 0xc0000135 is. It has something to do with you guys not having the right VB runtime files installed on your PC. I'm reading through potential fixes, and will do my best to compile a fix at some point this weekend.

that's a little strange, because I didn't get that error, but did get runtime errors when I tried to use that analfreq thing that Five posted a link to yesterday

Well...the good news is that I know why you guys are unable to run the program. The bad news is that you need to download and install the .NET framework from MS to run it. I don't know how many people are going to be willing to do that.....

Why is that? Is it bad? How can you tell if you already have it?

Damn I feel so left out. I really want to test this but I haven't got my PC hooked back up yet and I'm cleaning the whole house out first since I had to have it tented for termites. Hopefully tonight I'll give it a go and you'll have another WinXP tester. Sounds like you've done a good job. I'm really appreciative since I'm one of those who could never get shntool working on my machine.

Yeah...it's one of those Windows Update things....

Just hold on everyone, I am trying to get this thing working so that .NET is not required. I am opposed to forcing people to make that call just to run my program. Give me a week or so to get this thing converted over, and I'll make a new release that will work without people needing to "upgrade".

Re: Audiophilia - The shntool frontend, v0.0.1 released, alpha testers needed

Okay, I tried it out. Here's some nitpicks, etc...

monkey's audio link missing from 1st installer blurb.

no option to disagree with license agreement.

...when you hover:
shntool 2.0.6
"Installs shntool.exe 2.0.6 into the PATH. No registry items will be created. Select this if you choose to install shntool but NOT the Audiophilia frontend."

I can't come up with a good wording right now, but seeing as the box is checked by default and audiophilia is also checked by default the description could lead someone to believe that shntool shouldn't be selected in order to install audiophilia when in fact it should.

Checkbox was enabled to run audiophilia at the end of installation but it didn't run.

I double-clicked the desktop shortcut and got this:



My os is win2kpro sp4. Uninstaller works perfectly.

Thanks so much for all your time and work. I'm looking forward to checking out v0.0.2!! Hope this helps.

Re: Audiophilia - The shntool frontend, v0.0.1 released, alpha testers needed

Five....what directory is Windows installed in? Why did you install the program to a D:? I'm not sure why this would screw it up, but I would presume that from that error message it's looking to the D drive istead of the C drive for the necessary .dll files.

Also, I know that Monkey's Audio link is missing...because I couldn't find a place where the license was posted online. I don't know that it even is....it says I need to download the frontend to read the whole license. That's bullshit...

Well, I've got a dual boot, win2k is on D:\ and win98 is on C:\ as I recall... I'll give it another shot. Remember, Uhclem couldn't even figure out wtf is up with my system!

Re: Audiophilia - The shntool frontend, v0.0.1 released, alpha testers needed

hmmm... C:\ doesn't work, either.



Maybe I'll give it a shot on my other computer. It's also win2kpro sp4 and has never had shntool... what's that dll you wanted me to watch? cgrwyn or something?

Re: Audiophilia - The shntool frontend, v0.0.1 released, alpha testers needed

Well....let's hold off a bit on trying to fix this. I am, right now, in the process of transferring the project to a different programming environment, possibly even translating it to a different coding language. That requirement for .NET really made me upset, so the schedule for this program is going to be pushed back a bit while I try to simplify things a bit.

So....if people have gotten it to work, that's great. If not, hold on for a week, and I'll release a 0.0.2 that should work on more people's systems.

This whole thing is one huge learning experience.

Re: Audiophilia - The shntool frontend, v0.0.1 released, alpha testers needed

I sure will....and I'll need some more debugging. I am dedicated to making this program work and be a comprehensive GUI tool for shntool. If you guys are willing to wait around and help debug the next version too, I'm happy to keep coding until it DOES work on everyone's system without needing to install bloated MS framework packages....

Re: Audiophilia - The shntool frontend, v0.0.1 released, alpha testers needed

Update for anyone still tracking this thread:
I have spent the past week learing about and transferring the project over from Visual Basic to Delphi. Basically, in typical Microsoft manner, a program compiled in VB requires the end user to have this framework installed on their system. The issue Bowman and jcrabb reported was due to them not having .NET on their system, and I refuse to ask people to download this monster 20MB patch just to run my software.

So, it's being converted to a Delphi project that will run on all Win32 systems without additional dlls. This has taken quite a bit of time, as I was totally unfamiliar with the language before. But, as of last night, I have been able to recreate what had previously been accomplished with Audiophilia in it's new version, and quite a bit more cleanly than before.

So watch out for 0.0.2 at some point this weekend. It will not have any added capabilities compared to 0.0.1, but should run on everyone's computer without a glitch. Once I know it works on all systems, I'll start adding all the different functionality to it.

Re: Audiophilia - The shntool frontend, v0.0.1 released, alpha testers needed

Was getting ready to help seed the Black Crowes show that just got uploaded on the TTD tracker, so I figured I'd check Audiophilia out. Went ahead and downloaded the NET stuff patch from M$ for the hell of it too.

Anyhow....just wanted to drop in and say that it works fine for me now. Nice proggie. Look forward to the next version.
