How about 'its my program not yours' swords.

Your not happy? Don't use it. Its a name, get over it.

Right on alilm :D (Y) . MiTunes is a cool name ;). Stick with it. As long Alilm's happy with it, then we should be happy and proud that someone as skilled as alilm is doing this app and going to share it with us.

Enjoy the making the rest of your MiTunes alilm ;) (Y)

yes indeedy

I think miTunes is a bad name cause its just too close. There was a linux media player called xtunes and the developers of that got into big trouble with apple legal cause it was too close. They even had a legitimate reason for the name (x being the graphics server on unix).

imo, miTunes is sure to get you a pretty piece of paper with cease and desist written all over it.

OH!!! SO IT'S LIKE THIS NOW... ?

THAT MEENS THAT I SHOULD JUST SHUT THE F**K UP AND DON'T SAY NONE, HUH !? :ninja: ????

NOW TELL ME WHO WAS THE ONE WHO ASKED ANY SUGGESTIONS ABOUT THE NAME? I SUGGESTED MINES AND HE WASN'T GOOD WITH THEM, NO BIG DIL. AND THEN AFTER TELL ME THAT HE'S GOING TO STICK WITH iSongs, I FOUND OUT THAT IT SOUNDS PERFECT.

AND AS I SAID BEFORE IT'S A SORT OF COPY OF "iTunes" WITH AN "M" BEHIND !

OH YEAH AND I AIN'T GOT NO PROB' WITH "ALIM" AND NONE OF YA'LL, ALIM DOES GOOD WORK, IT'S FIRST TIME I'M "PARTICIPATING" TO A FORUM LIKE THIS. I MEEN TRULY PARTICIPATE AS I CAN'T.

YA'LL KNOW WHAT, WE SHOULD ASK APPLE WHAT THEY THINK ABOUT "MiTunes" ?

- for the caps, it's to make sur ya'll read my post .

While I agree with you, I think we should let the developer choose the name, and hopefully apple wont "killjoy". I don't care what it's called, I just want a beta :rolleyes: !

#42804

sure, i agree.

I just thought it might be a good idea to warn the guy. Apple are killjoys from time to time and calling your rip of their software mitunes is a bit like sticking your middle finger up at cupertino.

whatever you decide alilm, good luck!

#42805

Swords... im giving you a warning please stop with the caps...

no one is telling you to shut the F*** up.. please be respectful

-bolero

#42806

Okay ya'll know what forget all what i've said, cuz it seems that you'r all ok with MiTunes. So, as i said i can't do much then what i've allready did...

let it be... let it be

and i apologize to alim for what i said

we better stay all cool and forget what i've said.

oh and bolero THANKS for the warning, cuz i'm new it's the first time i'm really participating to a forum

#42807

yes i know its your first timeand i would like to welcome you here.. but since it is your first time try to make it a good start

there are different types of ways you can participate on a forum.

im not going to argue with this anymore... but enjoy your stay at aqua-soft

thanks

Continue on with Alilm's app discussion from here on!

#42814

ok nm i got the new one, thx!

#42831

A bit off-topic, but I think it's interesting to note that Microsoft brought a case against Lindows, due to the similarity in name to Windows. Microsoft argued that, in Joe Consumer's mind, Lindows = so close to Windows as makes no odds, and therefore, Lindows should be forced to change its name.

The court rejected Microsoft's claims, if I remember correctly. In any case, Lindows is still going strong.

#42838

Quick questions from an iTunes n00b: Will we be able to hide the library section? I like libraries and all, but it looks like it'll get in the way when I'm not using it. And how are we going to be able to add songs to the library? :baby: *hopes for some sort of search function*

#42935

Firstly, I would like to say that the application looks fantastic! I will definitely use this when it's released.

Secondly, I concur with some members here about the name being too close to iTunes. It would just give Apple an additional reason (besides the GUI look) to come down on the program. But the decision is ultimately up to Alilm.

Looking forward to seeing the program. Great work Alilm! (Y)

#43435

so alilm any new news on this project?

havnt heard anything bout it in a while

-bolero

#43624

hush hush, development has gone underground with my beta testers, youll get news of it when its very near completion, couple of weeks or so. :rock:

#43633

A couple of weeks...?

I'll have gone insane by then. :rant: ;)

#44166

Hy there.

For Alilm

I have discovered that the playlist's grid can be displayed as the one from iPlay (i meen every second line to be light blue).

If you develop it using Visual C++ with MFC here are a few methods you could use :

Skin a List control

SuperGrid - Yet Another listview control

XListCtrl - A custom-draw list control with subitem formatting

Hope this helps.

Anyway, your program ROCKS(Y)

P.S. if you use another programming language, just tell us which and what version, and i'll try to find some examples for that too :D

Take care,

CyberWolf

#44311

Good work cyber wold, il see what i can do ;)

But i have a feeling its more hastle to recode the whole app just to have striped lines

#44316

Hy.

Well, it was just and ideea, i think that striped lines are not as important as a stable player :D

I just pointed out that it's possible to modify the list control.

Of course, if it's too much hassle to implement it than we're better off without it, since that's only an interface problem.

For example you could use it in the next version.

Keep up the good work (Y) :own: :D

#44317

i know this is VERY far fetched but i was just wondering if you were even considering ever implementing a syncing method with the iPod

Im not a coder at all so i have no clue what this entails but i do believe there are some open source apps out there that sync with the ipod you might be able to look at

if not whatever and i just want to say this is the most amazing app i have seen yet out of hte aqua community

thanks

If only :), but I really dont intend on adding it, its just plain too hard

I don't know what he did, but of all the MP3 players on the market, the one made by MrAqua is the best sounding of them all. I've tried just about every player on the market and even the 'Audiophile's choice' Foobar isn't as good sounding. I hope yours sounds as good as MrAqua's player, that would be fantastic.

I know a lot of people think there's little difference between players, but there are in fact huge differences on the right setup. My ears and audio equiptment can testify to that. MrAqua's player really is exceptional sound-wise, looks damn good too.

Good luck with your endevours Alilm, I look forward to trying it out. :D

Well Ive played with the decoder in iSongs to enhance the sound with extra base and treble, it sounds great to me ;)

What setup have you got?

I've got a £5000 setup, and your right, different players do sound different.
