Bug in B 1.1 2.299 Error Message: Thread creation error...

I've loaded about 10,000 WMA files from 700 CDs into program. Works great. After playing an album or two (no playlist) this pop-up is displayed:

"Thread creation error: Not enough storage is available to process this command."

Everything continues normally and then it pops up again, and again, etc. Music is continuing to play ok.

I have 512 MB of ram and lots of disk space. This happens under Win2k and XP.

Great program!

It looks like Songs-DB doesn't release all resources correctly in some circumstances when playing WMA files. Until it is corrected, you can try to use Winamp for playing them (set it as a default player in the setup player dialog). However I'm not sure if it helps, the problem can be in plug-ins and they are generally speaking the same for both applications. Let me know about your results, please.

Thanks for the quick reply. I will use WinAmp today and let you know.

Ok. No dialog boxes when using WinApp as the player. When the dialog boxes appear the system seems to have plenty of memory.

I look forward to the next version.

Ok, I can confirm that the problem is in the WMA input plug-in distributed with the current version of Songs-DB. However the WinAmp's plug-in works well, so if you want to use the internal player, just copy in_wm.dll from Winamp\Plugins directory to Songs-DB\Plugins (when Songs-DB is not running) and everything should be ok.
