I mean better fade in and out options so you can use vdj also on quite nights like in a regulair bar or at home as a background player.

No offence, but that is what I use Musicmatch Jukebox and Winamp for. I use VDJ only for live performance. So if I had to vote for this I would vote against it, as I can see other features that deserve more of the time required for development than the addition of a standalone automated MP3 jukebox.

I don't want clearly an automated jukebox, but more crossfading options.

Why use a other program if one could do it all??
I really understand that the live Dj is not waiting for automatic use.
But bar club etc. owners want both so a better fade in and out option would make me an others very happy.

Better than the new fade mode of the v1.07b?
Force Fade: on/off
Fade Time : 1s, 2s,4s, 8s or 16s
Display of "fade in position" and "fade out position"...
(sorry, I may take wrong words because I use the french version).
For a long utilisation without supervision, I really don't understand what your are looking for.
Maybe you should explain here what is missing for your utilisation, this could help us to understand you.

Kaléo.
PS: @Redman247, LOL, it's a real hasard! :)

I feel you should be able to walk away from it occassionally, for 10, maybe 15 minutes and not have it completely mess up the way it does. Cutting off signature endings, and signature beginnings.

The problem with this is this. VDJ is still in its infancy, and all though it is progressing fast and getting to be a more mature DJing product it is not with out its faults, allot has been corrected and a few still remain as is such with any new software.
Issues that you will see allot of on this board is the precession of the BPM, another is P4 HT issue. Some of these issues affect a larger group of users than the ability to "AutoDJ". While I can see your point about it's usefulness to a Bartender/DJ, I can also guess that most likely the majority of DJ's here are not behind the bar or switching between the bar and DJing most of the night.
Another thing is VDJ is a specialized program aimed at live performances, to add auto DJing to it might seem more like a gimmick than a true enhancing feature, also when you do that you put VDJ on a whole new level of competition, right now VDJ only has to worry about competing DJ software and keeping ahead of them, with the additional task of VDJ becoming a DJ jukebox, then they will compete not only with there own sister product (DJ-Box) But with the multitude of other MP3 Jukebox's available on the internet.
For myself I would rather they focus on fixing the current issues, adding new features relevant to live DJing as that is what this program is designed for and the consumer base it is targeted for.

Oké i tryed that force fade and it's not making me clear what it does, because when i disable or enable it it make's not a difference (not sure).
Stil the automode is reacting on the beats becaus it wil put the first red arrows 16sec. in a song that starts slow and at the end it does that to.
I mean i want a fade in and out at the beginning and end of a song.
But i discovered that if i push on the automix button the song wil begin at the beginning and not at the arrows, this is what i schould do all the time and at the end also.
I hope that you understand my story??, and i don't wanne be a pain in the ass, but i love this software and i wanne use it all the time and not only on live gigs.

You have my vote. VDJ needs a better automix for the nights you just want to cool out. A good fade out is all I want.

I'm all for automation, but not at the expense of performance. (I never use it now.)
If addition to the code makes the program run slower, or make future updates (future features) more troublesome to make... then I'm against it. :)

Yeah, I vote for the team to work on other things (than auto crossfading). If you want the best auto crossfader I've ever seen, get winamp 2.x and download the SqrSoft Advanced Crossfading v1.75 plugin. After a little tweaking, you end up getting the best crossfades you've ever heard (because its based on dB rise and falloff, not just time). Its better than the winamp 3.x crossfader, but you can't use the plugin with winamp 3.x

for should be better then a free one

#1 Not necessary OPTIMIZED for automatic use, just a simple "play next song after this" option - so we can get a beer, toilet visit, talk to the employer for the gig or anything - eg. during a slow break.
Just a option to remove the analyzed fade in/out points, should use less resources and be an easy approach to this problem...
I'm testing the autofade plugin you recommended right now, sounds great! - and I guess I'll make an .m3u for winamp with slow tunes running after I fade out the main VDJ session...
Hope I can do this, and keep the system stable!
That's the main reason to have such an option integrated in vdj. Think ONE prog. communicating with/controlling soundcard is preferable!
#2 somewhat mentioned earlier, eg. a "simple/single effect mode" where you'd get 6 effects on the row, working on both players at once. This may be harder to incorporate, since i guess the program is builot around "separate engines" for player A/B..

Geez... did a search on some of the forum sections for "autoplay" and... it's been talked about before...
See from discussions regarding older versions of vdj, and actually described some in the manual included with vdj 1.08 too -
"automix mode" selectable between "smart", "tempo" and "fade"
This has disappeared from the Fame-settings as far as i can see...
Miss dat "fade" setting..
Just what I was naggin' about ;o|

How much more automatic do you want . Just create a play list and then set automix . And you can set fade times from the settings panel.From what I have their isn't much else I could want.It's playing automaticly right now as I write.
