SAMDestroy Posted August 4, 2008 Report Share Posted August 4, 2008 (edited) Hello,im SAMDestroy and a new member of this board.the reason for this thread is thats i want to release my sony filemanger here at atraclife.. it looks like this is the right forum for such a release.With "Sony Audio Master" you will have ID3Tag Editor, mp3 normalizing, upload/download/deleting and a backup and restore system.to realize this i was using:libusb (to connect to the device)SonyDB source (to interact with the device)taglib (to read and edit ID3Tags)mp3gain source (for the normalizing routine)zlib (for the backup and restore system)Many thanks to the coder of this libs/sourcesCurrently tested on Vista and XP with Sony NW-E405This is a beta version.. this means there are maybe bugs left to fix.Some Screenshots of SAM:This Software works only on Sony NW with OMGAUDIO folder on the device !Changelog:v02alphaFirst public releasev03alphaUpload bug fixed, selected downloading/deleting fixed.ID3Tag editing of local files added.some minor changes and cosmetic stuffv04betaNormalizing should be fixed now.Album Gainchange added (to have equal loudnes for tracks with same albumtag)Systray menu added.. with dynamic icon to identify SAM is busy or notSystray messages added (replacement for messageboxes)Minimized button added and some minor cosmetic stuff changed/added.changed from alpha to beta because SAM seems very useable nowv05betaNormalizing recoded and optimized.Manual Gainchange modded to allow negative values.Manual Gainchange for albums added.some minor bugfixes...v06betaTestversion - Not for public usev07betachanged from ID3Lib to taglib to fix broken unicode support"Create Album" dialog is replaced by "Add Compilation" dialogdrag & drop support for the new "Add COmpilation dialog addedProgressbar fixed (should be accurate now)Checkbox for custom albumtags addedCheckbox to disable sound notifications addedlots of smaller bugfixes...Todo:testing/fixing/optimizing ..For some reason i cant use the forum upload so i used rapidshare this time..Downloadhttp://rapidshare.com/files/147233248/SAM_v07beta.rar.htmlcyaSAMDestroy Edited September 21, 2008 by SAMDestroy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SAMDestroy Posted August 15, 2008 Author Report Share Posted August 15, 2008 (edited) SAM, any chances for MacOs version ? ther's still no app for transferring music for NW-A805 series Hello hexplor,sorry i dont have a mac at home and i didnt port a win32 application before :-/ also im using alot of windows functions for it so i think it would be alot of work to port it.maybe someone else who knows something about porting win32 to mac can contact me to work on a mac port for my filemanager.. but currently i just want to get rid of the alpha state.. so i need to fix the remaining bugs.@Alli already fixed the album-tag bug and the "selected-downloading/deleting" of tracks.. most of the normalizing routine is fixed..this weekend i will fix all bugs from the normalizing routines..so expect an updated version in two days..EDIT: weekend is over and a new version is posted.. i changed from alpha to beta version because most bugs should be fixed now :-)EDIT:EDIT another week is over.. i uploaded a new version with some small bugfixes and changesbtw: feel free to post your comments ;-)cyaSAMDestroy Edited August 24, 2008 by SAMDestroy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pomj Posted September 4, 2008 Report Share Posted September 4, 2008 Hi,great initiative I think. I've tested it and have some feedback for you.I started out with an empty library. I can add songs one by one and it works fine. It's ok to delete the songs too. I can not upload an album nor create one. SAM crashes then.My system is vista ultimate 32bit - sony nw-a808I have a suggestion if you don't mind. (mind you just a suggestion). Is it possible to make a "light" version with a dropzone for adding files and the possibility to delete and downlod files. For me that would be the ultimate program. As of now if you want something lighter than SS it is just VAIO musictransfer that works with the newer nw-Axx series and with that program you can just add files. To be able to delete them you have to start SS thereby nullifying its usefulness. Your program is the first program except for SS that I've tested that does not corrupt the players database! GREAT work.Anyway keep working on this. really great workcheers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SAMDestroy Posted September 21, 2008 Author Report Share Posted September 21, 2008 Hello all,i was not releasing beta06 because of a known bug in SAM..pomj pointed me to the right direction and with his betatesting support i was able to locate the problem in SAM's sourcecode..it was a unicode failure in ID3Lib. this lib i was using to read/write the mp3 tags.to fix this problem i was replacing ID3Lib with taglib.. this lib is fully unicode compatible.thanks pomj for your help on thisalso the progressbar is fixed and should be accurate nowthe other changes on this major update you can see at the changelogcyaSAMDestroy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

STILLlistening Posted January 7, 2009 Report Share Posted January 7, 2009 WOW!THank you very much for this Great Tool!If i get my NW-E505 to Birthday i liked the design and the using, but i was hatting 3 things....:-The Volume Limit for the european Union [Why is there no Volume Hack Fimrware outside :-( ]-The software to tranfer songs to the Player.I am person who want's to install as less as possbile software to the PC.Sonys software was like spam for me!Your little tool is small, without advertising like to buy a song from the internet or something.THX very very much!The wolrd need a tool like this.Did you get the information for the connect from Sony?Or did you collect the data for youself from the internet?And also i have some wishes , perhaps you could build something inside:-A automaticly LOG.txt save funktion, if one us happens a programm damage or something going wrong. [like at my first transfer ]-Language file Support, i could write a German.ing for your Tool.-A folder sorting funktion to sort the songs by artists and there volumes/albums.My favourit sortings ist: Root:Artistname:ALBUMFolderwithsongsinsideThat would be great if i could sort the songs and copyX and paste them.-Folder Upload funktion with songs inside-Tray button, perhaps this one with a point-button between the X, the Minimize and Fullscreen button.AND4YOU:-Put a dumyfile into your archive so that the archive is bigger than 5mb.So you get points at Rapidshare.com, this point you can converting to premium account if you get more then 10000.Its a gift for you than, from us And you could let the program delete this dummy file at the first start of the program then.So Greetings from Germany and many Thank for this GREAT Tool!Your STILLlistening Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
