HQPlayer control

Please generate me a log from hqplayer also, it will tell Jussi where the problem is. It will be in C:\Users\<your username>\AppData\Local\HQPlayer\HQPlayer.log, but I believe you have to turn it on in the prefs first.

Sent!

I tried this way:
1 - Sent a queue
2 - Started play
It works!

So probably you should only put a time delay between enqueue and start to "Play album now" command.

I've had a similar issue with HQP where the first time I play an album the file transfer is incomplete and HQP does not play.
If I play the same album again then all is well.
Not sure what kind of handshake takes places but HQP doesn't seem to be ready for Muso.
I have sent the log files to the support email since I cannot upload log/txt files here(why?). There are handshake issues evident in them.
Perhaps Muso needs to lock the gui and do an 'ET call home' with HQP first?
Btw, I have updated HQP to the recently released V3.15.0. Made no difference in this behavior.

Ah right, did you wait til the entire list was queued in HQPlayer before hitting play? I'll check but I think the Play is invoked after the first track is added to try to make it start ASAP.

I've been righting-clicking and playing. Maybe that's why.

Actually, it always happens on HiRes music where the file sizes are larger.
I can start Muso, scroll around, get a coffee, etc, and when I then play a HiRes album the first time it fails to copy correctly or play.
All successive plays are fine.
Also, if I encounter this issue and then shut down Muso, it gets stuck as a background task and I have to kill it manually. HQP shuts down cleanly. If I play the album again and then shut down there are no issues.
Very wierd.

Yes, instead pushing "play album now", I enqueue album and then I play start.
If I don't play start HQP is in stop status with queue fully populated.
I think that 1 second is enough.

Same problem here!

Are you both controlling HQPlayer locally or remotely? (i.e. running on same machine as muso or not?)
And using a buffer folder or not?
