My final act from within empeg: http://www.empeg.com/v3alphaNo release notes yet - Peter will put some online next week. Files for the auto-eq are also "to follow" so don't use that feature yet. Testing has been minimal - this probably won't work. But maybe it will! Rob

Okay, but do you have any hints as to what's changed since the Amersfoort build?
Thanks for the build, Rob!

Will the existing files from the Amersfoort release continue to work, or will new files be required?
Also, the Amersfoort files were reported to have "pop" transients at the beginnings or ends of some of the files because the zero-crossover wasn't selected when the files were created. Were there plans to release a new set of zero-crossed files?

Anybody had any luck with this version? I seem to be unable to get a working playlist database. I've tried letting the player build its own database (rwm; delete database3; start player), jEmplode with and without "Rebuild from RAM", and emptool.
All methods appear to build a DB succesfully and the player reboots fine (without trying to rebuild on its own), but there is nothing in my playlist menu on the player. It just says "-None-"
jEmplode and emptool both show all my playlists, the player just doesn't seem to see them. I'm beginning to think Rob's last act was to hide all my music from me 
Guess I'll roll back to alpha 8 and see what happens.

And all my playlists are back. So, beware of alpha 9 I guess.

1) Nope. It picked up the database from a7 with no problems. I've not tried emptool, emplode or jemplode with it at all yet. 2) No idea

Yeah, I forgot to mention it, but mine worked fine until the first rebuild as well. After that rebuild nothing I could think of aside from going back to the previous alpha would bring the playlists back.

ok, well, i was determined to get alpha9 working correctly, so i devised this workaround to get playlists. i basically uploaded the player binary as player-a9 on an a7 install. then, with the help of hijack and busybox, i've set up the following in config.ini Code:
;@MENUEXEC UseV3a9 busybox killall -2 player && /empeg/bin/player-a9
;@MENUEXEC UseV3a7 busybox killall -2 player && /empeg/bin/player
so basically, load up with v3a7 by default, queue up your playlists, and goto v3a9. if you need to change playlists, go back to v3a7 for a bit. There was discussion before of setting up hijack to do this natively or even do some /dev trickery switching hda5 (the player partition) and hdc5 (never used) on boot up like ;@AC and HOME mode.

I am currently running 2.0 Final and would like to upgrade to the Alpha 9 build to get crossfade support. I do realize that there might/will be bugs because this is an Alpha build.
I would like to know, however, if any of you guys *expect* me to have any problems with playlists, etc if I'm comming from 2.0 Final.
I've seen some people say it works (and dosen't work) when comming from differant Alpha builds - But how about right from 2.0 Final?
Thanks guys!
Joey

Actually, I think we all agree that playlists will stop working after your first sync (if not before). I think you'd be better off with a7 (or 8 if you can get your hands on it) if your determined to run an alpha version.

Is this just the same old "forgot to remount the drives r/w" bug?
Or something new -- Empeg folks -- any guesses? Perhaps Hijack can provide a workaround.

I don't remember that bug, but I don't see how it could be. I went through all the steps (including the rwm/launch player/ro) by hand one of the times.

I have playlists like this in my top level:
Soundtracks
Various
Comedy
singles
A
B
C
..
X
Y
Z
All full albums are then below the single letters sorted by artist first. i.e. like
A
|
+-> Ash
....|
....+-> 1977
When I upgraded to alpha9 all my single letter playlists disappeared. Down, Down, Down only queued songs in the remaining playlists that I could see.
Downgrading to alpha8 and all the single letter playlists magically reappeared without any syncing.

I only found 2 of the Alpha8 originals that had issues that looked bad enough...
