Chapter List | MB 2.0 - Final Release
I had a hard drive disaster in spring of 2018, where recovery would have been very messy. I just considered that all the data was lost. That happened to be my primary backup drive, and where I kept all of my development stuff. Not all of my projects had been fully sync'd to GitHub at the time of the disaster, so quite a bit of work was lost on several projects.
ChapterList | MB was no exception, but at least I still have the final binary. It was a result of my efforts to improve it's UI and integrate the plugin into the MusicBee interface, which were successful.
CL|MB v2.0 was more or less complete when this final DLL was built, and after using it for a year or two, I haven't encountered many bugs. Just don't try to use the Nudge Backwards button until the position for a chapter goes into the negatives...
The biggest problem is that since I began using the Windows Store version of MusicBee, the CL|MB panel doesn't load properly. I discovered that it can be fixed by disabling, then reenabling CL|MB in the "Configure Layout > Arrange Panels..." menu in the top-right of the main window, next to the search bar.
The best way to install ChapterList | MB is to use the Add Plugin button in the Plugins tab of the main options menu. This is required for the Windows Store version of MusicBee, since it uses weird directories for program files.
Chapter List | MB Initial Release
This is the first release of Chapter List | MB, a plugin for the Music Bee music player
Extract the zip files this plugin to the plugins folder for MusicBee (Default C:\Program Files (x86)\MusicBee\Plugins)
Usage is straightforward. Launch the plugin by going to Music Bee's tools menu and clicking "Chapter List | MB".
Click Add to create new chapters, Remove to delete existing chapters (except for the first chapter). Use the combobox to set the initial name of a new chapter, and click in the cells to change the titles of chapters.
Click on the first column of a chapter to set it as the A point for repeating. Click a subsequent chapter to set it as the B point, where the track will rewind to the A point.
The two arrow buttons on the right side allow you to nudge a selected chapter forwards or backwards in time, so you get your chapter positions just right. Right now the change value is hard-coded to 200 milliseconds.
Chapter data is saved to the same location as the accompanying track's file. Delete these XML files if you want to start over creating chapters. (I should add that as a feature....)
Please let me know of any issues. This is just the first release and there's more work to be done!
