Good afternoon

After the last update, Proppfrexx no longer starts automatically.

If I start it manually.
I see it start up in the task manager and then shut down automatically.

Can you see where it goes wrong?

Hopefully answer before 17.00. because I have a live broadcast at 7pm.

Sincerely,

Wesley Winands

No, it works for many other users just fine.
Do you see any error message in the file called Error.log!
Please also check, if there is a license issue or Ident-Number change and what last message is shown at startup, eg. where ProppFrexx got stuck…

Hi Bernd,

The following log file Erro.log

I can't find a new license key because proppfrexx doesn't even start.

As I mentioned, I see it start up but immediately shut down in the Windows task manager window.

Greetings Wesley

Hi Wesley,

the error indicates, that a new dll is somehow missing in the installation folder (not sure why, but I just cleared all caches and uploaded the installations/updates again).

You can also find the missing dll here: https://proppfrexx.radio42.com/download ... .1.dll.zip

Just unzip it to your ProppFrexx installation folder.

Many Greets and sorry for any inconvenience,
Bernd

Hello Bernd, could you tell us a bit more about the new function - new 'Artist Match' automatic Sweeper selection for Artist Intro features.

Thank you!

Sure. The so far existing feature picked a (length matching; eg. to fit into the Ramp time) track RANDOMLY from the selected cartwall lib.
This generates a nice, but general sweeper.

The new option does something similar, with a few changes:
- it also selects a random track from the cartwall, but filtering the cartwall with ONLY tracks matching the same Artist! This allows picking (if available) an Artist related intro sweeper, eg. to announce/feature the Artist.
- it always uses the mentioned transition, eg. if the Artist intro is too long (longer than the ramp time), the sweeper stays as a dedicated track within the playlist.
