Bread Player, a free and open source music player powered by UWP and C#/.NET with a sleek and polished design built for, and by, the people seeking a better alternative to Groove and Windows Media Player by Microsoft.
Add a file via drag and drop to the music libary. After that, play it for a few second and then delet it again. The player will break up instantly.
Tested on two systems (windows 10 Pro and Home) Latest updates installed..
I uninstalled 0.1.4 and installed 0.1.5 and well... Nothing's loading now, at first it showed 0 songs loaded 0 seconds or something like that, but now "Nothing baking".
I tried drag and drop but it crashed the app...
Tried to reproduce this on mobile and it seems it isn't loading anything there either.
On mobile, I double clicked a song to play, but then clicked another one and now there's the first song playing in the background, as well as the second one. I can pause/change the second one, but the first one just keeps on playing.
Macalifa.Tags.ID3 needs some thorough clean-up, there are many tags that are unnecessary. Aside from that the Extensions folder has more than needed extensions. Probably duplicates. Then the PlaySong method is duplicated many times. I need to address that too.
There are probably many other code blocks that need optimization.
After you fixed #50 next doesn't work anymore.
Pressing the play button of a song doesn't work either. => line 397 of LibraryViewModel.cs TracksCollection.Elements.FirstOrDefault(t => t.Path == Player.CurrentlyPlayingFile.Path).State = PlayerState.Playing;
I have a song I ripped from YouTube, and did the ID3 myself. The player shows the album name, artist name, but shows 0 songs · 0.0 Minutes. When I try to play it, the application crashes.
It probably has to do with the handling of foreign characters, the filename is "∆$†ɌῗØ - CɌY$†∆Ɫ ШЄЄD (ØЯỊ₲ỊИ∆Ɫ MỊX).mp3"
*_What it does: *_Application crashes
*_What it should do: *_Throw error, or play the song
(Optimization?) Lumia 735, experiencing audio cuts and sometimes quick jumps, frequently. The phone doesn't have many apps opened, no more than normal.
Happens both with the app on screen (happens just as much) and background
When playing a song and clicking on another area of the seek bar, the audio jumps a bit, but doesn't work as intended.
What it does: Small jump in audio, and then goes back to the same place What it should do: Jump to a certain time in the song, where the mouse is clicking
PC, Mobile doesn't work either but there isn't a jump
After about 5 (maybe 6, at most) playlists are very slow to create, for the seventh I used Japanese characters and the app crashed, now it crashes every time I load it... Not sure if it's the number of playlists or the characters (both in name and description)... When opened, the app shows 0 playlists, when you click on the (➕ ) it shows a blank menu (no options) after a few seconds, it becomes unresponsive or crashes
As this project is open source and for the people, let's make it by the people too! Any suggestions and requests are welcome. By any I mean any; you can request a berry on top of the bread! Anything.
Unique ideas that don't sound good in your head are especially welcome here. Let us fill this issue with suggestions and requests!
List of suggestions already given by the people:
1. Display Up Next on shuffle. (Basic support added)
2. DLNA Support. (Basically casting).
3. Xbox One & Android Support.
4. FM Radio.
5. Live Tile
6. Equalizer/Effects
7. Folder Navigation
8. Last.fm Scrobbling.
10. Manual adding of Album arts
11. Most Played and Recently Added and Now Playing section
12. Database resetting support Fully supported
13. Favorites List
14. Gapless Playback
15. Prevent screen from locking.
16. Stop playing after this song.
17. Syncing across devices (Pick up where you left off on the PC),
18. Sub-sorting for albums and artists.
19. Replay Gain
20. Silence Skipping in a song.
21. .lrc lyrics (Synchronized lyrics)
22. Custom background (in all regions)
23. Deep ID3 tag reading
24. Ability to hide a specific folder and its songs.
25. Private Playlists
26. Party Mode (Probably with a nice UI)
27. Remote Control support (Using Phone to control Bread on PC)
28. Continuum Support. (Basic support is of course already there but many things need to be changed.)
29. Ability to relocate (change location) of a song.
30. Auto play on connecting headphones.
31. Compact Player Mode (Only PCs).
32. Reencode for target device (Your library is flac, but your player doesn't have that much room)
33. Volume normalization
34. Fade in/out when changing the song.
35. Custom track formatting. (Prefix the file name with the track number like 001, etc) Bulk formatting would be amazing.
36. Transparent Tiles.
37. Customization for columns. (Show/Hide additional columns if so desired.)
Using windows audio controls, we can change the song anywhere, especially on the lockscreen without opening the app. currently we need to go to bread player to change the song. Also, we get overlapping songs, when songs are played on a different player, when bread player is also running.
This is mobile only. There's 2 things that come with this bug:
When playing a file on BP and then trying to play another one on, for example, Groove, or playing a game which normally stops music, the music doesn't stop. Consequently, the songs overlap.
When this happens, SMTC only shows info for the new song (the one playing on Groove) or none at all (for example, after playing a video) and then the song must be paused or BP manually closed (which by the way stops playback, not sure if this is intended)
Something with an M will suffice. Any person with any experience in designing is welcome to contribute.
The new Icon was made with the suggestion of the new name and so this issue no longer remains but please note that any new ideas or contribution is always welcome. This is not to discourage or disappoint but only to inform.
Note: If you do not like the new icon or have any new suggestions or just want to share ideas, please do not hesitate to email me or open a new issue. Your contribution will always be met with appreciation and applause.
After 1.6.0, albums aren't loading... Library load time is excellent, album cover load time is pretty slow however, and once it's done, it won't show up. Tried closing and reopening the app, to no success

"Either you need a new certificate installed for this app package, or you need a new app package with trusted certificates. Your system administrator or the app developer can help. A certificate chain processed, but terminated in a root certificate which isn't trusted (0x800B0109)"
