Mediasource 5 Now playing list prob

I don't know if this is the right thread but anyway.
I have a X-fi Xtreme music.
I installed the latest drivers and Mediasource 5. I have a serious problem with the way it works now. I had Mediasource 3.30 as my primary music player because of a specific feature. When I double-clicked any media file associated with it, it automatically added it to the now playing list WITHOUT removing the other now playing items. In Mediasource 5, every time I try to open a file, it removes all files from queue and plays that file, which is highly annoying because I have to drag and drop everything now and if I make the mistake of opening a file instead of adding it to the list, it destroys the list. Saving the list as a playlist isn't doing much better, as it removes the whole playlist from the Now playing queue when I open a file. Is there any workaround for that, a command to tweak in windows file associations or should I revert back to 3.30?

Well, if I could do that and they actually stayed there no matter what, I'd li've with that. The problem is, even if I right click and just add them to play, when I play a file through normal means, the list disappears. What I hate is that there is no permanent way to keep the list. They could have added an option for that instead of outright dropping it. Add to that that I had to make?a desktop shortcut to access the console, since the mixer button isn't there anymore... Now it's just like the average media player ?
Oh well, if it gets on my nerves too bad, I'll be reverting back to 3.30, whose only problem for me was that it couldn't play flac unless I dragged them in (I have Coreflac installed so playing them wasn't a problem). Thanks for the reply.

  • Creative Mediasource - Now Playing List on star

    I have been using Mediasource for quite a while though and loving it. However, I have one question about the Now Playing List on startup on the program. Originally when i installed the program (i have done this a few times so i know this to be true), the Now Playing list from when i last closed down the player was saved and used by the player the next time i opened it up.
    Now, mediasource is stuck on a Now Playing list i created about six months ago every time i open it, no matter what is in the now playing list when i close it. This is not a huge disadvantage as i can save playlists and open them up straight after mediasource opens but it is an issue on convenience.
    I was hoping someone knew a way to set it up so the now playing list i have open is kept intact for startup on closure of mediasource. I have fiddled a bit with closing the player with different skins, with the music stopped, playing, paused and with different options enabled but to no avail.
    I do however remember having this problem and then randomly one day the now playing list i had had been stored and still continues to remain at start up till this day. Though i cannot remember anything different i was doing that day. I think mediasource is toying with me :P
    Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    Try deleting the.dat file in "C:\Documents and Settings\YourName\Application Data\Creative\MediaSource".

  • How to show now playing list on TV

  • Why is there no now playing list?

    Let's say I'm making a playlist and I've added a few songs from Nirvana to it. I browse to the Foo Fighters and add a couple songs. I remember there was a song I liked from the Nirvana, but I can't remember if it's already on the list.
    I then have to open the list, look, realize it's not there, then go back to Nirvana, add it, then go back to Foo Fighters. This would all be solved if I could just have a temporary playlist window. Most other MP3 player programs have this feature... why doesn't iTunes?

    That's what iTunesDJ playlist is for.
    You can add, delete and change song order around.
    It is a "Now playing" playlist.
    Double click it to open it in a new window.
    Selct songs in the regular window then drag them to the iTunesDJ window or right click - Add to iTunes DJ or Play next in iTunesDJ.
    Select the iTunesDJ window and you can drag songs up or down in any order or delete them from the playlist.

  • Now Playing list. bugged please help me

    So i finally converted to the x-fi wave. Point is i was all happy until i encountered the sad and super annoying playlist of the new creative media player. before i had the audigy 2zc or w/e with the old media player. but it was a lot nicer, all the features were in it and u didn't have to open different panels to access a lot of the special settings.
    Point is, now i cant keep a clean record of the music i play. every time i open a new mp3. it deletes everything. only way to actually make a play list is to drag and drop a bunch ... thats way annoying. i think this is a bug. so please help me anybody Message Edited by archangel202 on 09-20-200708:27 PM

  • Media player now playing list

    I have a Verizon Curve 9330.  I just got it.  I cannot find a way to view the now playing in list form or to view playlists in list form other than the default 3 at a time.  Seriously, one song at a time on now playing, how convenient, I have playlists with over 100 on them.  Do I really have to stop and sit down and scroll half an hour to find a song?  sorta takes the "mobility" out of a mobile doesn't it.  If there's no intuitive way to view a list of now playing, can I downgrade to the media player version I had in my 8330?  I never had problems with that one and it was easy to use.

    Hi
    if you have difficulties with the native media player, you can always obtain another from App World.

  • Now Playing List Patch/Hack

    Is there some way of getting a Now Playing Playlist similar to that in Windows Media Player or Real Player which doesn't involve having to manually set up a new playlist everytime.
    (ie I may be listening to an albumn, but realise I want to listen to a random track half way through and then go back to the album, in WMP I would just drag the random song in and presto it is done but I am now using an airport so have to use itunes)

    I really wish there was a solution to this as am getting so fustrated with itunes, as was used to this function in WMP. Apple please make this an addition in itunes!! And the obvious ones of making a playlist or using party suffle just don't cut it.

  • Zen Vision:M adding unhighlighted items to Now Play

    My brand new Vision:M has just begun adding the item below what I have highlighted to the "Now Playing" list instead of what I wanted. I updated the firmware to . immediately after receiving the player.
    Anyone else have this problem. After I click on "add to selected", the highlight bar drops down to the next item and that's the item that's added. Very undesireable and confusing. No real help from Creative email support.

    Sidenote everyone: My post may have been somewhat misleading. The computer recognizes the Zen, as in, if I go under "My Computer" and whatnot it shows it as being there, what's not recognizing it is Creative MediaSource. The computer knows its there and a window asking what I want to do pops up every time I plug the Zen in, but when I run MediaSource, which is the specific version for this type of operating system, it won't recognize it and hence I can't transfer files. Sorry for the confusion.

  • How coan I add a new song to now playing by double-click in Creative Medis Source

    This is my problem. Can I change it somehow in settings?
    I used to use PlayCenter or other Creative players
    and it always worked like that by double-click
    I was able to add a new song directly to ,,now playing list".
    In MediaSource 5 when I double-click on a song
    this softwere automaticly earase all the songs in ,,now playing".
    So playings songs from f.e. C:\music.. by double-clicking
    always delates all the list

    "Don't you think that double click should play the track immediately rather than add the track to the Now Playing list?"
    Thats not exactly what he is saying....when you double click a file it should play immediately AND add it to the playlist. I agree with what the original poster is saying...MediaSource 3 and all other previous versions did this...and now MediaSource changed it for the WORSE.

  • Is there a "currently playing" list?

    So, I'm new to iTunes. I've been importing a bunch of CDs, and things seem to be working fine.
    However, I can't seem to find anywhere a list of songs that are next to be played... I started an album playing while I was ripping it, and then went on to rip several other CDs. The original album that I started keeps playing (this is good) but I can't seem to find a way to show what's coming up next. Is there anything like a "now playing" list?

    There is a feature SOMEWHAT like that. When you are in a playlist and you select to play a song in it, then you go to other areas, playlist, library ect ect. To get back to the currently playing "list" quickly, you will hit a lil arrow to the left of the display screen where it shows the current playing song

  • I lost my "Now playing screen" How do I get it back? All it shows is the album cover and the song list pages

    How can I get my "Now Playing" screen back? I can't scroll or change screens at all. All I have is the album picture and the song list page. I can toggle between the two but nothing else. It did this all by itself. Now it's stuck.

    what happens when you tap the screen?
    Next try:
    - Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost      
    Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Reset all settings                 
    Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
    All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
    - Restore from backup. See:                                               
    iOS: Back up and restore your iOS device with iCloud or iTunes
    - Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.

  • It seems like I now will have to switch to Chrome or IE in order to be able to interact with youtube videos? When I try to save a video to a play list I get a r

    Just started having issues when I use youtube. According to what I am hearing about this It seems like I now will have to switch to Chrome or IE in order to be able to interact on youtube ? Is that true? When I try to save a video to a play list I created, I get a red warning pop bar up that says "Invalid Request" and it will not let me do it anymore. Also, I can no longer post a comment on video's that I view either. Do you know what is causing this and is there a fix, without having to switch to Google Chrome of IE?

    According to some forum posts, this is a side effect of one or more downloaders, such as Download Helper. You either can disable that add-on while this is worked out (assuming no update has yet been issued) or try modifying one of its preferences in the about:config preference editor.
