Researching a new audio system
-
Converted playback to javax.sound.sampled.Clip for testing, and we have eliminated the delay. Problematically, that will also severely limit the sort of files that we can playback. Will continue to investigate.

Work notes. Wait countdown has stopped updating status cell for some reason. Regular countdown still works.

We're still experiencing the delay. We're now creating and starting a player thread, and creating a paused BasicPlayer, at the time that a cue is readied for play back (via the top of show button), rather than at the time it is played, but there is still around a half-second delay between executing the cue and hearing audio played back. For many types of cues, this level of imprecision is probably fine, but anything that needs to fire precisely with an action on stage won't work. Unfortunately, this...

Created readyTopOfShow() method, and calling that from the readyTopOfShowButton
-

Even with the PlayerThread running and playback paused, there seems to be a half second delay between pressing the "GO" button and hearing the audio playback. And now there seems to be a momentary "bump" in the audio playback level before the fadeLevel method takes over.

Now starting a playerThread as part of advanceCue() method.
-
tambascot@hg.code.sf.net committed [86f4d1]
Outline new procedure for playing back cues.
-
tambascot@hg.code.sf.net committed [64d7d3]
Tried to resume playback, but we still have the pause while the worker is created. Not sure why. Can't see basic print statements being written to console when the topOfShow button is pushed; not sure why.
-
tambascot@hg.code.sf.net committed [8b8d64]
Revised PlayerTread.run() method and added PlayerThread.play()

Playback errors

No activity in this department in a very long time, so closing the ticket.

Cue Notes Doesn't Re-initialize on new open
-
We are now selecting the first cue in the table automatically when opening a new file. This will be integrated into the next version.
-
tambascot@hg.code.sf.net committed [dd42c4]
Applying bug cueNotesArea bugfix to openShowFile.
-
tambascot@hg.code.sf.net committed [90ab6b]
Changed behavior of opening a new showfile so that the first cue is automatically selected.
-
The cueNotesArea portion of this bug has been addressed.

Merging changes

2.1.0 Feature Locked
-
Timer Cue
-
tambascot@hg.code.sf.net committed [381f8d]
Release Note updates.
-
Timer Cue
-
This is the next one on the punch list for 2.1.x features, but it's going to work a little differently than originally proposed. If a duration is specified in the cue, the timer will count DOWN from that time to 0. If no duration is specified, the timer will count UP from 0 until stopped, either by being targetted by a Stop cue, or through the Stop All button.
-
Command line options on start up
-
This feature is now incorporated into the 2.1.x branch, and will be included in the next release.
-
tambascot@hg.code.sf.net committed [a97828]
We can now open a file specified as a command line option.
-
tambascot@hg.code.sf.net committed [dfeeae]
Changed constructor to pass commons.cli CommandLine instance to the constructor.
-
tambascot@hg.code.sf.net committed [e1679a]
Changing location in constructor where we will interrogate command line options.
-
tambascot@hg.code.sf.net committed [36a3a0]
Sketched out evalCommandLine() method.
-
Command line options on start up
-
This is in progress. In the current build in the 2.1.x repo, we are able to process a command line option to print an "About" screen and exit. Next we will specify one for opening a specific file on startup.
-
tambascot@hg.code.sf.net committed [be141b]
Very basic about message prints as command line argument.
-
tambascot@hg.code.sf.net committed [2b74a5]
added imports for command line options.
-
tambascot@hg.code.sf.net committed [a26f57]
Abstracted the "About" message into a string variable, since we will be using that as our test case for command line options.
-
tambascot@hg.code.sf.net committed [fee4fe]
Changes to the aboutSBString variable, and the creation of a printAbout() method.
-
tambascot@hg.code.sf.net committed [e1362e]
Augmented the about output using the some word wrap formatting.

Multiple output support
-
Integrated Jack support isn't something that we can do since it's not available in Java. That said, I don't think it wuold be particularly helpful to Soundboard, since Jack is there to route audio between software applications, and Soundboard is designed to send already-edited files to main output. There are some challenges for Soundboard handling multiple output mixers, but we are looking into ways of handling that in predictable and portable ways as part of the 2.1.x development branch.
-
tambascot@hg.code.sf.net committed [d5182a]
Added a tabbed pane to the preferences frame to separate file preferences and audio preferences. We're going to want that audio preferences tab someday, so we may as well build it now while we don't have many components.
-

For some reason, 2.0.9 release notes were not included in the release notes for this branch. Including those now.

This has been built into the 2.1.x branch and will be included in the next release.
-
tambascot@hg.code.sf.net committed [a1a96d]
Updated code so that the most recent file is added to the head of the list, and the corresponding menu item is added to the head of the Open Recent menu.
-
tambascot@hg.code.sf.net committed [a7f775]
Added code to limit the number of recently opened files we're tracking to 10.
-
tambascot@hg.code.sf.net committed [9cfb76]
Corrected error that was causing the recently saved stored in the congif file to delete on opening.
-
tambascot@hg.code.sf.net committed [6ab4f5]
Corrected error that was causing recently opened files to appear in the wrong order in the menu when opened from the file.
-
tambascot@hg.code.sf.net committed [a17226]
Now displaying recently opened files as sub menu items.
-
tambascot@hg.code.sf.net committed [f1621f]
We can now open a recent file by clicking on the dymanically reacted menu item in the sub menu.
-
tambascot@hg.code.sf.net committed [7781ee]
Open Recent menu item should have been a sub menu, so changed it to that.

Notes for where to pick up tomorrow.
-
The Edit->Preferences window is complete, and now works for the one editable preference that we have. Next step will be to build a list of "recently opened" files and save them to the config file.
-
tambascot@hg.code.sf.net committed [fdf54b]
Created preferencesFrame for the system preferences editor. Also removed a pane that seems to have been created accidentally.
-
tambascot@hg.code.sf.net committed [bd0b48]
Reconceiving the preferences window: when we change a value, it will automatically change the value of the class field. We will, instead of "save" and "close" options, write the newly changed values to the config file on close.
-
tambascot@hg.code.sf.net committed [d957c0]
Added FileChooser() window to change default media file change button.
-
tambascot@hg.code.sf.net committed [c44d9c]

Put labels, fields, and control buttons in Edit System Preferences frame. We'll fill in more options as we develop them.
-
tambascot@hg.code.sf.net committed [618bc3]
Edit->preferences window now can change our (currently one) system preferences, and save the changes to the init file.

Set Preferences->Cancel button to set the preferences window invisible AND corrected error that was causing the window to hang
-
tambascot@hg.code.sf.net committed [ebcb86]
Updating release notes: Soundboard 2.1.x will require Java 1.8.

Init file / recently opened.
-
This is in progress. We have the ability to create / read from a config file in an init directory. For the moment, we're only reading the default media diretcory. Next step will be to create a new window that allows us to modify parameters in the config file (the Edit-Preferences menu button has already been added to activate this). Then we can look into adding files as we open them.

Soundboard now creates a .soundboard directory in the user.home directory to which it will write a basic config file if one is absent.
-
tambascot@hg.code.sf.net committed [f1bc8f]
Cleaned up initialization code in the Soundboard class.
-
tambascot@hg.code.sf.net committed [94a253]
Corrected error in the code that resulted in too much white space being added to the end of GEN-BEGIN and GEN-END guarded blocks, which prevented NetBeans from recognizing them and allowing us to edit the GUI. Then added Edit->Preferences (and a separator), laying the ground work to allow users to modify the config file directly.

Better file system window
-
We have migrated the File->Open and the AddMediaFile dialogues to JavaFX based ones, which are more modern.
-
tambascot@hg.code.sf.net committed [b60b95]
New file chooser window added for Add Media File dialogue, now using JavaFX, which gives us the option to create a window with more modern options than Swing allows for.

-
tambascot@hg.code.sf.net committed [35e4a3]
Changed the handling of the cancel option for adding media files; the JavaFX FileChooser() does things differently.
