This software contains code by me (Stephen van Egmond), Marco Nelissen (via HTTP-UI), and Jeff Hamilton.
I'm grateful for their contributions.
Troubleshooting
- I can't connect with my web browser!
- Maybe you have an HTTP proxy set up. Try referring to your machine by its name instead of using localhost.
- It crashes!
- Yuck. I can send you a version with extra information with debugging information turned on.
When you get a crash, click on "debugger" in the crash window, type "sc" then enter in the debugger
window, and e-mail me what you get back. Make sure to tell me anything you were doing at the time.
- Clicking rewind makes the player freak out!
- In particular, it will try to rewind at -18000% and the player won't be able to keep up.
This is a bug in SoundPlay versions 4.3 and before. Check for the latest release of SoundPlay.
As of November, 2000, a fixed version has yet to be released.
- Nothing's showing up!
- Did you run the installer and let it build mp3 indexes on your volumes?
Future Work
Some of these are things I can do on my own. Others (particularly those that relate
to graphics and esthetics) I need to rely upon others for. If you can help, please do!
Especially useful is some idea of what features are important than others to you.
I operate a bug database for exactly this purpose. To the general public,
there is only a a cut-down, read-only view,
but I'm pretty free with giving contributors access.
Getting and Giving Help
The Be in your Stereo home page has a number
of useful resources:
- Software updates.
- A copy of this manual where users can leave comments, tips, and suggestions for each other.
- A mailing list where users can get involved in more in-depth discussions.
You may also wish to try the newsgroup comp.sys.be.misc, or
the Be-run mailing list Be User Talk.
Please try these resources first before e-mailing me for help.
Contributions to the software, including bug reports and feature requests, are particularly welcome.
