WACUP Preview Build 1.99.13.19100
🕑 Added 2024-05-10 12:13:45 +0000 UTCWACUP build 1.99.13.19100 just went up as the latest preview build which aims to resolve the main crash issue happening with the prior 1.99.12.18980 preview build. https://getwacup.com/preview/preview_1_99_13_19100.html details just the changes made between the builds.
The last 2 weeks has generated around 1500 crash reports (possibly more that didn't make it to the server from some of the feedback) with 90% of them being the same issue which was related to a multi-threaded database file saving failures. I've got my fingers crossed the changes made are going to resolve it as looking at that many crash reports has been a big time consuming drain.
Feedback seems to have been mostly positive against the build though for some the 3 year gap between preview builds has meant some changes were more dramatic than I thought they'd be & so this new build has some adjustments with more to come in later builds to find a happy medium with the intentionally different changes being done as WACUP vs what old Winampers expect.
There'll now be a pause in new builds to let things settle out & try to make some progress on the ever growing todo list along with catching up on some IRL stuff that hasn't been done over the past few 2 months whilst I've been focusing on getting a stable build up (hadn't realised this is the 6th build within that time).

I'm apparently not keeping up. I'm running the 1.99.12.18980 preview build on 3 different machines with no issues. Maybe I'm not doing anything to make the database work. I'll start testing the current 1.99.13.19100 preview build on my systems. Thanks!

For those having crashes, going to Preferences -> Media Library -> History & un-checking the "Limit tracking to items played in the last x" option might help to minimise the chance of crashing with this build (as has also been affecting the last few builds which is annoying me).
