Questions about MusicFab

Thank you, D300!

Ditto (X 2)

jkadlec,
signals is a good person. I have had the pleasure of dealing with him/her in other threads. ...and yes, being rude and obnoxious to others in a Forum has always been unacceptable, and a reason to be banned. I also agree that no one should have to listen to abusive comments anywhere else either.

Thank you, D300!

@all
Spam, bad behaviour, insults and insinuations. Despite requests to refrain from this, ord1117 has continued with it. Moderators have to ensure that things are civilised in a forum.....
ord1117 was therefore no longer acceptable.

Supine,
He is immature, rude and insulted another member of this forum by saying that member was probably a fat pig. He definitely did cross the line. Years ago the rules on this forum were a lot more strict. Back then you could have been banned if you talked bad about any of the products and people were banned for doing just that...after being given warnings of course. Signals (the forum admin) was a good guy. So were SOME of the moderators. However there were a couple of moderators that let their "power" go to their heads and weren't afraid to show it. If you disagreed with them on ANYTHING you could have been banned. Most of them were good though. They were all volunteers and didn't work for DVDFab or Fengtao. Nowadays the enforcements of rules are a lot less strict and more priority is being given to free speech, which is good. However, the lack of maturity and being rude to others is not good and should be dealt with. No one wants to see that crap on a support forum...or anywhere else for that matter.

Well... It looks like ord1117 crossed a line. The T.O.S. (Forum rules) are generally known, and fairly liberal. Although some leeway is sometimes given, they are also fairly strict.
If negative comments were a reason to be kicked off, Microsoft would have banned me years ago. I know that my commenting on issues and deficits in an app, program or platform are sometimes construed as negative. There is no malice in my comments however. I don't loose any sleep over these issues, nor do I harbor ill feelings toward people who disagree with me in these Forums. The negative effect on my life and wellbeing isn't worth it. ord1117; If you haven't ditched reading this Forum thread; raise a glass and party on. Trust me; the heartburn isn't worth carrying a grudge. (Peace be with you.)

I complained about being Unapproved when I Post (But ALL Of MY Posts have been APPROVED) !!!!

And Chameleon CONT to attack ME, with his Unnecessary Comments and Accusations !!!!!!

Chameleon SAID,


""He was trolling the stream Fab subforum also, he is very rude. He should be banned.""-------

I was Trolling------I was Rude !!!!!!!!!!!!

Chameleon I know YOU have a CHIP on your Shoulder about ME, Please STOP !!!!!!!

OK !!!!!!!!!!!!!

Please! Petty bickering in an open forum is beneath us all. ord1117, The Moderator (D300) was not trying to be rude. His/Her comment sounded more like a suggestion. What this means is, there have probably been complaints PM'd or Msg'd back to the Mod's from more than one registered user concerning a comment or comments you have made. (Usually the threshold is several different registered users) They are obligated to look into these complaints, and this forces someone to actually read everything that you submit before allowing it to post on the Forum. Trust me. They don't like doing this. The fact that everything you submit is approved and posted means that although often snarky and negative, your comments do not actually violate the T.O.S.. (The Mod's are usually pretty fair about things like that.) Although this is a pain for everyone, It just means your posts are delayed for a while (Unless they actually do violate the T.O.S.). Neither you or the Mod's have much choice in this. What I recommend is, just ignore it until it eventually blows over, and your posts eventually resume normalcy. ...just a suggestion. If we could not bicker on an open Forum I would appreciate it.

When I found out that I could also get 5.1 Surround from a properly coded .mp3 file, I switched to that format to save space. It seems, that the issue of the artwork not showing in Windows is primarily MP3 format. I downloaded a few albums in another format, and all of the artwork showed up fine in Windows. Just sayin'... No sense in casting dispersion where there is no blame. It's still an issue; it's just more complicated than I thought.

In other news, I just updated MusicFab to 1.0.1.5. Although the "Protected Content" screen reared it's ugly head again, once I rebooted and restarted MusicFab it went away, and has not been back for several restarts. (Just closing and reopening the Spotify tab, or closing and restarting MusicFab didn't work to get rid of the "Protected Content" screen.) MusicFab continues to crash intermittently, and it seems that the issue concerning Multidisc albums has not been addressed. It's still dumping tracks for all of the discs into a single directory. After downloading a short list, the Track Selection window failed to come up again. This is also an ongoing issue. Restarting the program however, restored the selection window, and did not require a reboot. The Album Artwork, despite being in the tag, still does not display in Windows. I believe that this could be an ID2/3 issue, as when I replace the artwork in the tags, it is displayed in Windows.
Either I wasn't offered an update log, or I clicked right through it. I can't say what has been changed in this new update, but for now, it seems that my major concerns still exist. I am looking forward to the next update. If the moderators have any input to the Programming and development side, I would appreciate a gentle "Nudge" asking them to (perhaps) put a little more time and thought into these specific issues. I DO realize that the Spotify specific issues only concern one platform, but to me, major issues on any platform affects the program as a whole.
-Thanks-

This is not about quality. Atmos tracks are mixed and engineered for more than 2 channels.

Thanks for your reply. The format that I'm downloading seems like it does quite well with 5.1 Surround as long as what I'm playing it through understands the imbedded coding (Which it does.). I believe I'll just stick with what I have. My small family room would probably be overserved anyway by adding two more speakers. I was just curious. Thanks again.

I see... I was probably less than clear about what I was asking.
If you would, Please download a song in .flac format onto your computer using MusicFab, and listen to it through the Cube. Then stream the same song directly from Amazon natively through your Cube with Atmos, and see if there is a discernible difference. If you don't feel like conducting this experiment, that's fine. I don't want to be a bother; I'm just curious.

[D780]

@ord1117
If after over 100 posts, your posts still need to be approved (or approved again), it may be because of your behaviour.
