Programming Saturday: rav1e GUI

Programming Saturday: rav1e GUI

Hi everyone, Today, I spent the afternoon programming my rav1e GUI software. It’s been about a month since I last released a rav1e GUI update, and rav1e itself has improved by then. While I still haven’t released a new GUI version, I did some programming to it to add some of the new rav1e features. Unfortunately, the tests were not successful and I believe this has to do to some changed in the encoder itself. Don’t worry, I’ve opened an…

Fixing a problem in my DLNA software

Fixing a problem in my DLNA software

Hi everyone, Today, I applied a fix to my DLNA software that allows you to stream music via the DLNA protocol to your DLNA renderer devices. This fix applies only to the Opus and FLAC wav file access code, and is for a problem that happened if a temp.wav file is still in use. and the software tries to access the file. This caused a “File in use” problem and the software would throw an error. My solution was to…

Introducing the new, better PAQCompress GUI

Introducing the new, better PAQCompress GUI

Hi everyone, I started this year being productive and have coded for the past couple of days, hence my absence of posts in this site. I’ve worked on updated a graphical user interface I wrote several years ago for the PAQ Compression software. At the time, I had limited skills writing code, and my GUIs were not that great. Hence, I took that software and rewrote it from scratch to provide a better user experience. I also updated the software…

cmix_gui v1.5 released!

cmix_gui v1.5 released!

Hi everyone, Yesterday, Veterans Day Holiday, I was working at improving the cmix GUI software. New versions of the cmix compression software were released and so, I added support for them. cmix GUI now supports cmix_v16c, v16d, and v16e! Other improvements includes fixing the log window as it seems cmix switched from using Standard Output (stdout) to Standard Error (stderr). This prevented the log from showing the output. Also, in the process, there were code improvements performed. Lastly, the software…

New opusenc.exe build with a bug fix regarding the output filename

New opusenc.exe build with a bug fix regarding the output filename

Hi everyone, Today, I fixed a bug in my opusenc code regarding the output filename when it is not provided. The issue was that if a file didn’t had an extension, then the output string would be empty, so in reality, the encoded file would not be stored. This has been fixed in my latest commits still awaiting approval to be merged into the official opusenc GitHub repository. The new updated code is the following: There are now two “if”…

Learning and Programming Days – DLNA Player

Learning and Programming Days – DLNA Player

Hi everyone, I got my HiBy R3 music player some time ago and I’ve been enjoying it a lot, and I recently started playing the DLNA portion of it. Using DLNA with Android is a piece of cake thanks to an app called BubbleUPnP, for which I purchased the app license as it allows me to stream my media files without limitations compared with the free version. However, it is when it comes to the PC where I had difficulties…
