How to remove a function key?

I've found how to replace a function key but did not find to remove and keep the key without any programmation.

Thanks for advance

Hi.

Found a strange bug in Hippo Player. When I play a certain Module AFTER another module I get a guru. If I play some other module between it is OK.
So, if I play Garfield1.dw and immediately afer unreal-level2.mon I get a guru.

Modules:

I also wanna report a strange behavior.

Despite having on Prefs under General --> Play: "Modules in random order", the first track upon running HiP is always the first in my playlist. If I click next track then it goes into random order for whole listening session.
It's just the first track that is always the same.

Edit: This started happening from version 2.56+. Under previous versions (just tried from 2.47 till 2.57) random order on first tracked worked correctly.

Could you clarify how exactly you start playing? This is important as there are a few ways that this can happen.

It seems an entry can be removed by:

• Select F1 button to open file requester
• Make the path string in the requester empty
• Press tab key
• Click ok

Strange thing

I'm not able to reproduce this issue here, could you maybe grab the debug version from https://github.com/koobo/HippoPlayer/tree/master/dist and see what the logs say at the time of the crash? That is, if the log window does not disappear with the crash...

Here is what is in the log window when it crashes:

Well I have a playlist that I use on General --> Startup
This happens when I open HiP so it starts by default with the first track on the playlist (instead of random that happened till 2.55). Rest tracks after first radnomize just fine though.

Settings of significance might be the following:
- General --> Play: Module on random order
- General --> Doubleclick: Yes
- General --> Continue on error: Yes
- Play-1 --> Mode: All on startup
- Loading --> XPK identity: Yes

Tell me if you want me to send you prefs file or any other info.

Thanks, this one is actually fixed after the last release. If you want a personal beta version drop me a message

We concluded that this is most likely a pistorm+emu68-related compatibility issue.

Another bug report: when playing an S3M file over AHI and pressing the play button again to stop the replay, the system crashes. "Pause" or stopping the track after "pause" works.

I cannot observe this behavior with 2.45.

I can't reproduce this one. Does it happen with every S3M file?
Also, what's your kickstart and cpu? Could you try out with the debug logging version as well, found here: https://github.com/koobo/HippoPlayer...dist/hip-debug

EDIT: Which AHI mode?

[pipper]

Kick 3.2.2 060, RTG over Prometheus using SBLive (emu10kx ahi unit) as soundcard.

This is the last thing before the machine reboots (not showing a guru)

HippoPlayer v2.58 available:
- https://aminet.net/mus/play/hippoplayerupdate.lha
- https://aminet.net/mus/play/hippoplayerupdate.readme

A few fixes and a position slider for selecting the playback position.

[koobo]

Forgot to mention, check out "Shared lists", there's a lot of interesting stuff there. For example: Jogeir Liljedahl's favorites (and mine, too).

Also worth checking out is https://hippoplayer.se/ where you can also access all of the shared lists using Mike's cool workbench simulator (TAWS).

Cheers for the update mate! <3

[nikosidis]

[tomcat666]

[Viceroy]
