Thank you very much.

7.2.p released | The Fullscreen Patch


You can now run (If you want ofcourse) in Fullscreen-Mode. Its a clean and tidy Fullscreen-UI. You can do most all of you stuff in the Fullscreen-Mode. You have the ability to use the fullscreen mode also in a 1280x720 resolution.
Also added just for this feature a combo box in the settings, to let osu!player start in your desired version. (Default is Normal)
Also some small changes: Changed the default background. It was pretty bright, with to much white. I changed it to something more dark, so that the controls are more visible. Also the Heart Icon changed a bit, its more smoother now.

And last but not least a screenshot.

I'd like to see where all the songs are already imported in to osu!player so we don't have to let the songs load into the player every time we launch it. It'd make the experience that much better :)

Also I feel that the click boxes for the sound bar and such to lower and raise the volume is a little too small. Most of the time when I click anywhere on the sound bar it doesn't want to register (it may just be me I'm really dumb)

You can see all the imported songs, the file should be located somewhere in the data folder. (Can't look right now, because I'm at work) If you open the file, you see all your imported songs. I know it takes some while to import the songs (especially when you have more then 10k songs) even if they are all saved in one file. It really needs some improvements and I really should consider in doing that next.

Yeah the hitboxes are quite wierd I know that. But i really can't change it that much. The best way to change your volume is by dragging the big white dot until I find a solution of fixing it.

I hope these things are not that much for a problem and you like how it is so far, until i found a solution.

Fixed the import algo and it now should import already imported songs much faster.

Also many requested it via DM on Discord and now you get it. When using fullscreen mode osu!player (miniplayer) will now minimize to the system tray. Just click the icon in the system tray to open the miniplayer again.

8.3.p released


Today its the time to introduce the Audio Spectrum to the public. We mad a private test, for all Discord members of the osu!player Discord.
Now after many performance improvments we release it to the public. You will also find in the data folder a spectrum.json there you can edit some of the values for the spectrum e.g. FPS and number of bars.
Also we fixed some performance issues.

If you have trouble with this update, or any bugs, please report them as fast as possible.
Also if the player doesn't play any songs because of the updated or doesn't start at all. Please try a new import by creating a file called newImport.txt

8.5.p released


The time has come and the miniplayer is gone and the Fullscreen-Mode is the new main GUI.
We made many tweaks for making that possible and that most of can be happy.

We removed many options that wasn't used or not usefull. The Translations got rewritten, if you are a translator you should check them and possibly start from scratch.
Also we made some fixed to the Exporter it should now work perfectly with the filter.

IMPORTANT
If someone already updated to 8.5.p until now, they should get an error and the player wont start. To fix this please download the 8.5.p package again. Its just an library that wasn't updated. We will fix this issue in the update so that you will have in 8.6.p an updater that will work corretly and updated outdated libraries. Here a quick link for the 8.5.p package: http://server.founntain.de/osuplayer/v8.5/osu!player.zip

Just replace everthing or just the DLL files

You are missing the spectrum.json that should have. Can you check if you have a spectrum.json in your Directory where the .exe is or in the data folder?

If not create in the data folder a spectrum.json and put this in it
Content

{
//Number of displayed bars (default: 128):
"numBars": 256,
//Spacing between bars in pixels (default: 3):
"barSpacing": 3,
//Maximum frequency of visualizer (default: 20000):
"frequency": 20000,
//Refreshinterval in fps (default: 30):
"refreshInterval": 60
}


However, thanks for reporting the issue, the spectrum.json was not shipped in the updated. Thanks for reporting. It will be fixed in the next version

osu!player plus



I know I left this thread dead and now I will finally post about it. The osu!player plus is a newer version of the osu!player. Why? Because the osu!player was a mess from the code that was lying behind, so I wanted to rewrite everything from scratch. So say hello to the osu!player plus.



If you want to know more about the osu!player plus, you can read the info post in its repository here

Feedback is welcome as always, if you want to keep in touch with me much faster, or want a response much quicker? Then please join the osu!player discord server. You can find the invite in the start post.

Actually you can resize the window by pressing in the bottom right corner

indeed i can't reach that edge in the corner, it just covers the whole screen (even the taskbar) and i can't move/resize it. Here's a fullscreen screenshot

i use 1366x768 resolution.

Oh btw, it would be nice if there was a way to remove the map ID from the music title when using the OBS option, just like the old versions.

Thanks for telling me that, in the next update there will be a detection if your screen is big enough if not it will start in a lower resolution and then it should fit on your screen.
And yes I will fix that the OBS feature wont take the ID inside. That also shouldn't be there, so that's my fault.
The update will probably will be released between 11-17.02 because its quite a big one.

Currently it always connects to Discord and I was aware that I should make it an option to stop that. I can do that, if it you don't like it. But to inform you, it does not directly connect to discord. Its more checking if a Discord is running to start the Discord Rhich Presence.

IMPORTANT


If you have a current instalation and can't start the player anymore, then please start the updater and click on the install updates manualy button. Open the downloaded .zip file and replace the everything with your current installation.
We release a huge update that fixed a ton of bugs and should avoid stuff like that in the future. Thanks for your attention.

Hey there
Is this have a visualizer feature? I search for osu! Skin game that can change the design menu UI that can make me well with the visualizer (around circle). well i found this.

I doubt, is this have a visualizer? There is no visualizer player except "reinmeter". I do not want to use it, cause it heavy for device.

The old osu!player had something like that, but what do you mean with visualizer? Do you mean one in the client or a visualizer on the desktop for your background? For the client we can do something like that however for the desktop I need to say no, also to mention that the visualizer would also be a bit heavy for the device!

Hey it's a really cool player but just few suggestions // (dont know if it's actually implemented but I can't find the button to enable the feature tho)

1.Adjusting the transparency of the BG of the song (like I can change the picture to be not that blurry or more blurry myself)
2.Equalizing the music volume, sometimes some mp3 are louder and some are weaker, so I think equalizing would be a better listening experience (not sure if it's possible tho)

EDIT : the first point can be edited in settings nice!!

Important note


Some user that use the player told me that the player won't start anymore because of a crash. Thanks for the kind people, telling me that <3

However I released a fix, but if you can't get to the update via the player (Cause of crash, because of auto import of songs), then you need to download the update manually. Just open the Updater.exe and click can't install update button or click here. It will redirect you to the latest version and will download a .zip containing the newest update. Just replace everything in your current installation. Then everything should work fine.

The future? Motivation?


Also I know I was kinda active the last months in terms of development. However to motivated myself even more to get most of the stuff done. I told myself to fix, implement all current open issues until 2020 or 05.01.2019 (Cause my vacations end then)

This will include the following features:

  1. Language Editor for our kind translators, to make everything easier
  2. Dim Background Images (User Request)
  3. Remember last playlist when closing (User Request)
And the following fixes:

  1. DiscordRPC not updating in playlistmode
  2. Using the Beatmap Checksum and not the ID for the Startsong
  3. And probably some bugs that are currently not listed


Last but not least


If you find bugs or just want to tell me a feature you want to see. Or anything else, then you can post it here, join the discord server or just send an e-mail to osuplayer@founntain.de

YOUR feedback is needed and will be heard.

Thanks for taking your time, and if you still use the player. Thank you really much, it means a lot and helps me to motivate me even more if the things I try to do will be appreciatedby some people <3

Version 36 out now


  1. Fixed a bug that the player could not download the update.
  2. Optionmenu is now infinite scrollable, no more pages.
  3. Added an Equalizer to the player, tune the sounds and music to your likings. You can open it via the settings in the advanced settings.
  4. Added the Language Editor. Now you can easily create languages. You will find a list of all keys on the left, select one by one and get this translations going.
  5. Fixed a bug, when clicking on "enable song caching" that the "use obs" checkbox will be checked. (Thanks to Noko916)
  6. Fixed a bug, that the client receives translations with weird characters.
  7. Fixed a bug, that japanese, russian and any other language that uses its own alphabet will be displayed wrong with weird characters. (Thanks to Noko916 and MrDubstep863)
  8. Teached the abusive API some manners
  9. Internal bug fixes, style fixes


The osu!player equalizer is here



One user request we had really long in mind, but it was quite forgoten. Now it is here. You can use the presets or make a custom one. In the future we will make it possible to share presets with others, via the API.

The Language Editor is FINALLY here



Probably the most requested feature by our translators. A tool to make it easier for creating translations for the player.
Now you can just create an empty language and scroll trough the keys that need to be translated. Then just save it and then maybe upload it to the api, to share it with other people. You need to have a profile, to upload a language to the API

Thanks you, great to hear that you like it. Currently there is nothing to sort out double songs. There are a couple of reasons for this:
We use the beatmap checksum.
Because of that there can't be a map with the same checksum twice or more.
We don't do that, because of many songs have the same title, artist etc. but the audio file is different in terms of lenght as an example.
We can look into that if it is possible, but I think this will be hard and really hard to implement. But I hope its not kind of a bummer.

Hello! This music player is fantastic, but I am confused why my client seems very clunky and slow. When I scroll it takes a while for the client to catch up. Also just clicking between tabs on the side takes about 2-4 seconds for the transition

Great to hear, that you love it. It could have several reasons tho.
Maybe a slow connection. So API and Online stuff makes the player slow. You can try it in offline mode (enable it in the settings) and look if it still is there.

However it also can be a slow GPU or CPU, another reason could be a slow or old Hard Drive

Hey there, if your username in the player was Morcfizel, then you deleted your profile by yourself, according to the API.



If you have Discord you can message me there, because its easier for me to handle it instead of the forums.

Discord: Founntain#7777

Or write me here and DM so we can resolve your profile issue.

New server and cloudflare issues

Need to address the issue here too.

We changed our server and also switched to cloudflare. However we have some issues with cloudflare not able to resolve our domain properly.

This results in a huge wait time and over and over again because the clients waits for timeout.
However we released a hotfix.

To get this update and use the player as intended, do ONE of these steps:

1) Download the update manualy and replace it with your current installation

or

2) Go into the data folder and open the config.json with any editor. Now change offline mode to true. Start the player, ignore the profile warning. (because you disabled API connection it cant load the profile) Download the update, install it and disable offline mode after a successfull update.

We are really sorry for this and my friend and me will investigate this issue with our domain.

Sorry for late response. Could be version missmatch, old version, or simply the API made some oopsi or beeing down for a while.

We now have an open source version, which is a cross platform rewrite of the osu!player which is still WIP but it's open source now and this version will replace the osu!player plus sooner or later.

Hi I just find this fortuitously. I have an altanitive project: https://github.com/Milkitic/Osu-Player, but as my first project to learn how to UI, it's too antiquated. I want to do refactor (winui3 branch), but I'm tired.
I'm excited to see such brand new project. But I have some questios:
  1. Can it/will it support playing hitsounds? This is core function of mine.
  2. It looks that you are trying to use Avalionia UI, idk if it can port the software to ios/android (more pragmatic). Have you considered about Maui?
I'm intersted in this project :D. It would be nice if there is some discussion server cuz I wish further discussions.

Hey there. Thanks for the words and interesst. Actually it's not a brand new project the osu!player was release since November 2017 to the public ;) We just rewrote it often to keep it up to date. 😉
WinUi3 is amazing, but sadly is Windows only, thats why we chose AvaloniaUI, to have the ability to realease crossplatform on Windows, MacOS and Linux Desktop PC's.

To your questions:
1. No we don't support hitsounds and don't want to. This is a music player and not a hit sound player etc. The project is focused on playing the songs only.
2. We are not trying to use AvaloniaUI, we are using AvaloniaUI. We heard about .NET MAUI and considered it, but didn't decide for that, because it was really fresh when we started the Avalonia rewrite. So we stick with Avalonia for now, because it has all the features we need and want.

If you have further questions, we have a Discord-Server 👋

Thanks for reply.
trying to use -> using - Sorry I've wrote something improper indeed.

I tried to read code and build myself today, and I've found it's a project that with long history.
I wished to merge my project to yours, but you clearly expressed that you don't plan to make hitsound related functions (Actually including storyboard but I didn't mention)... What a shame😥

As stated we are only focused on the music. Which is the core aspect of a music player of course. If the user want's to browse hitsounds from skins or beatmaps there are plenty of tools that were made for that case and should be used. We did a lot of feature creeping back than and want to reduce that and focus on the core of what it is ment to be.

Ideas and functionality like these is something that can be thought of. But in these almost 5 years we learned that, users want to listen to the music and mostly even have somekind of miniplayer that just has controls. So no video, storyboard or etc. I love to include these options maybe in the distant future, but not for sure.

Please don't get me wrong. I don't want to say that those ideas and suggestions are bad. I just want to point out that they don't fit in the aspect of a music player (which purpose, well, is playing music).

For hitsounds for skins /maps: Use tools that are made for that, which I'm greatful that they exist at all.
For storyboards: either watch them in osu! / osu! lazer (because I'm certainly sure, that osu! does the best storyboard rendering for this purpose), or use software that was also build for that.
