Title: 1.186a Change WP pop-up Post by: Tjeerd on February 07, 2014, 02:08:56 pm Hello Peter,
I’m using XXHE version 1.186a on an audio-PC (W7Pro / i7 / 2x SSD / NAS), playing in unatt. and min-os, and I get (some times) the following pop-up; Change WP Error setting the Wallpaper: Er is een generieke fout opgeterden in GDI+ The music plays (by the way, his version off XXHE sound very very good) and the wallpaper appears. So there seem to be nothing the matter except the pop-up. Question: what to do? Greetings, Tjeerd Title: Re: 1.186a Change WP pop-up Post by: PeterSt on February 07, 2014, 02:42:03 pm Hi there Tjeerd,
Is this with Q3,Q4,Q5 = 1,1,1 ? If yes then the OS has too much difficulties with showing the wallpaper (no matter it does appear) and I think this error can occur. Solution : don't show the Wallpaper (see Settings). But is this 1,1,1 the case ? Regards, Peter Title: Re: 1.186a Change WP pop-up Post by: Tjeerd on February 07, 2014, 03:58:11 pm Hi Peter,
Correct, i use setting 1 for Q3, Q4, and Q5. Regards, Tjeerd Title: Re: 1.186a Change WP pop-up Post by: PeterSt on February 07, 2014, 04:02:47 pm Tjeerd, you can also try change the SFS slightly and see whether that helps (and now leave on the Wallpaper showing of course).

Thanks for the tip. At this moment a have disabled “At Attended” (blue) in the CoverArt setting, and so far this seems to help (with Wallpaper showing). Tjeerd Title: Re: 1.186a Change WP pop-up Post by: PeterSt on February 08, 2014, 11:45:39 am Uhm Tjeerd ...
And that ChangeWP popup came from UNattended ? Or did I just assume that ... Peter Title: Re: 1.186a Change WP pop-up Post by: Tjeerd on February 08, 2014, 01:11:27 pm Peter,
Correct. Unattended. Tjeerd Title: Re: 1.186a Change WP pop-up Post by: PeterSt on February 08, 2014, 01:19:09 pm Odd !
Hmm ... Title: Re: 1.186a Change WP pop-up Post by: Tjeerd on February 25, 2014, 11:26:20 am Hi Peter,
Hereby an update. I have changes the SFS setting 16 days a go form 120x120 to 12x12 (and still playing with this setting and with “Wallpaper showing”). The pop-up is still appearing, but only when playing FLAC-files (resolution 16/44,1 - 24/88,2 – 24/96 – 24/192). Showing Wallpaper: - Sometimes the wallpaper shows after a few minutes (the music is already playing). - Sometimes the wallpaper don’t show at all (the music is playing). - Sometimes the pervious wallpaper is still showing at the moment a new album is starting (the pervious will disappear and the new one shows). - When playing FLAC-files the track indication (mirror side of the wallpaper) stocks at the first track. Any ideas’? Greetings, Tjeerd Title: Re: 1.186a Change WP pop-up Post by: PeterSt on February 25, 2014, 01:25:02 pm Hi there Tjeerd,
Thank you for the update. But ideas ? I already told I'm afraid : don't use the Wallpaper (or don't use the 1,1,1 setting ;)). But a question : Suppose you make 0,0,0 of Q3,4,5 - do you then still see that back of the FLAC album stuck after the first track ? Thanks, Peter Title: Re: 1.186a Change WP pop-up Post by: Tjeerd on February 26, 2014, 02:29:39 pm Hi Peter,
I will try 0, 0, 0 for Q3, Q4 and Q5 and let you no what happens (and listen carefully for sound changes). Just a question for you: When will XXHE perform (sound, processor use, memory use, etc) at his best; A – just playing Flac-files as it is? or B – Convert Flac to WAV (with FLAC Frontend) and play this converted file? Greetings, Tjeerd Title: Re: 1.186a Change WP pop-up Post by: PeterSt on February 26, 2014, 06:12:29 pm Tjeerd,
If all is right it will not matter - but use a Playback Drive. Next you will see that each kind/sort of Playback Drive matters ... Regards, Peter Title: Re: 1.186a Change WP pop-up Post by: bdohmeyer on March 03, 2014, 03:38:14 pm I have Just purchased 1.186a, and it sounds great.
I get the same error, and I read that the Q settings might have something to do with this. Are there any standard/generic settings for Q, SFS, and Clock Resolution that I could start from which might help prevent the error from occurring? Title: Re: 1.186a Change WP pop-up Post by: PeterSt on March 03, 2014, 04:34:58 pm No, sorry ...
Well yes, set Q4 to not 1 and the same for Q5. But that violates the SQ severely. Just shut off the showing of the Wallpaper in Settings for sure avoids the error message. So solution : don't show the Wallpaper Coverart. Can't make it better or at least not at this moment (but will look into it). Peter |
