[edit] Installation

[edit] Configuration

[edit] Play List

[edit] Shuffle and Loop I understand. But what exactly are Normal and Auto Continue?

Normal: Play the current playlist and then stop.

AutoContinue: When the playlist is finished, choose a new random song from the database and continue playing.

[edit] Track List

[edit] How do I edit ID3 tags?

The best way to change tags is to right click on a track and choose properties.
You can also select many tracks and select properties to mass-change them.
You can also drag files from the track list and drop them to a tree item.
You can also right click on an item -> advanced -> Get Tags from filename -> manual

[edit] Special Info

[edit] How do I get rid of a faulty image under Special Information?

This sometimes happens with ambiguous band names.

Find manually (using a google search?) a correct picture and save it to your computer.
Right click on artist -> properties then Artist Picture.
Press Options then Remove the faulty image.
Then press Import / Import / locate the correct image.

The biography can also be edited or changed within the Properties window

[edit] Why don't my lyrics show up?

There are 2 lyrics formats. Synced (time stamped) and unsynced. Jaangle currently supports unsynced only.

Jaangle only reads the tags when it adds the files in the database (that's why it is so fast). If you change the files externally you need to either use the "Update" (not "Update (quick)") function in the collections dialog or do the advanced->Read Tags thing.

If it is an mp3 then Right click on the track in list view -> Advanced->Read Tags. If it isn't an mp3 then it is not supported .

[edit] Font

[edit] I would like to see a way to configure the text/font size (perhaps in the skin spec?)

The T buttons at the top right of your screen allow you to change the size of the font by repeatedly clicking them. The first makes the font smaller, the second resets the font to the default/original size and the third makes it larger.

Also you can use shortcut keys

Hold down the Ctrl key and then hit the + or - key on your numeric pad. Don't try to use the + or - key at the top of the standard keyboard as this won't work.

[edit] Audio

[edit] Sound is all crackly and popping!

It might be a problem with the audio driver in your system. Since version 0.95g you can try the following:

Close Teen Spirit/Jaangle
Open TeenSpirit.ini
Find the "[Player]" category.
You will see these values

UseSampleFloat=1
UseFloatDSP=1

Try to set these values to '0'.

UseSampleFloat=0
UseFloatDSP=0

Save the file.
Start Teen Spirit/Jaangle
See what is happening in an mp3 file.

(Since Jaangle it is added as an option in the Main Options dialog)

[edit] Misc

[edit] Lyrics dowload problem

Trying to download lyrics results in an error:

 "We're sorry...
 ... but your query looks similar to automated requests from a computer virus or spyware application. 
To protect our users, we can't process your request right now.

Google has an internal algorithm which limits the number of requests that you can do to the system (per day / per hour - i don't know). First it requests a captcha and if you continue downloading then it stops the access. I think that you should wait some more hours or change your ip address (if you have a dynamic one). After that, don't try to download more than 100 lyrics / day. Another option is to use a proxy or a different search engine for a couple of days.
