http://www.youngmx.com/ YoungMX is a media player for windows geared towards managing moderately large collections. It includes several features not always seen in media players, such as a batch file renamer, and viewing images inside ID3 v2 tags, as well as a built-in web server that is used to display what you are listening to. en-us webmaster@youngmx.com http://www.youngmx.com/images/youngmx88312.gif http://www.youngmx.com 88 31 As promised, the newest update of YoungMX, 0.9.75, is out! I also put out a fresh installer as the old one was a year out of date. People with YoungMX already installed can of course just update from the autoupdate menu. Enjoy the new release! webmaster@youngmx.com Hey guys, long time since the last YoungMX update, and this one isn't too exciting either. I've just updated the Song-on-Desktop plugin that allows you to see which song was just played without having YoungMX or the minibar open, fixing a bug where it stole focus when popping up.

Eventually, I will be able to put out a new update of YoungMX that fixes a few things, but I have been very busy since last August from school. YoungMX is not dead yet! webmaster@youngmx.com Sorry for the downtime everyone! With all the music downloads, I simply ran out of bandwidth before I could catch it and put up a temporary stop to downloading. I'll try not to let it happen again, but donating to help purchase additional bandwidth would always be nice. webmaster@youngmx.com I finally put out the next release of YoungMX! You can get it the same way you have been getting the previous updates. Just go to the Media menu, and choose the Check for Updates option. Several crashes have been fixed in this release, as well as miscelaneous stuff to make everything appear more seamless. Sorry for such a long wait! webmaster@youngmx.com Happy New Year from the west coast of the USA! Greets to Australia, the first nation to visit youngmx.com in 2006! Everyone enjoy and make this year great. webmaster@youngmx.com I know it is a bit late at night, but Merry Christmas from DragonMinded at youngmx.com! webmaster@youngmx.com I finally got off my ass and released an update for YoungMX. We are up to 0.9.73 now, and there have been some major improvements to VBR playback and playlist modes. Check the auto-update menu for the rundown as to what got updated. webmaster@youngmx.com I have been kind-of slacking off on the site, ever since the forums died. There was a problem with phpbb and my host, and they have locked all the files in the forum as non-deletable or renamable. I am stuck with the files there, and no new installation of phpbb works, as my host automatically redirects it to the old forum site, and then locks it down. In all honesty, the forum was dead anyhow, so I think I should leave it like that. Expect to see the skins and such downloadable from the main site, and a bit of a redesign as well.

On YoungMX the player... I haven't really worked on it much either, being into Nintendo DS a lot recently. A complete lack of annoying bugs also stops me from pushing forward, though I do still have a feature request and a potential bug to investigate. Still nothing new with video mode, can't seem to get it to work properly no matter what I try. webmaster@youngmx.com Apparently the music downloads are getting quite popular. I'm at 99% bandwidth usage for the month so they are down until the first of July. Sorry folks, can't afford anything more at the moment. If you really need those pages up, consider donating to help get more bandwidth here. webmaster@youngmx.com I have gone ahead and made some updates to the plugins page. First off, the Mod Player plugin has been updated and now plays sound out of every speaker on your system, as apposed to only the front stereo speakers. Also, a new plugin has been added that creates a fading window that displays the current song. webmaster@youngmx.com This isn't an update about YoungMX, but a favor for a friend. Shin-Howe is selling laptops and if you were interested in getting one for cheap, check out the few (brand new) laptops he is offering here. webmaster@youngmx.com YoungMX 0.9.72 is out, and is available from the Auto-Update menu! Grab it now while it's still hot from the oven. Highlights of this release include a final and perfect fix for the too-many-directories crash and disappear bug, and the ugly skin display error after running a DirectX game. Several smaller fixes help insure that this is one of the most stable releases I've put out. webmaster@youngmx.com I'm going to go ahead and post a preliminary rundown of what you should look forward to in the next version of YoungMX. Note that this won't be out for a bit, as I want this to be as stable a release as possible. If you have found a bug or want something in the next release, go ahead and post before it's too late... webmaster@youngmx.com I've gone ahead and released YoungMX 0.9.71 after fixing a few bugs. The most noticeable fix will be that file types handled by WINAMP plugins will no longer freeze every other song! Also added is an iTunes-like searching feature. Go ahead and go to Media - Check for Updates to get this now. webmaster@youngmx.com I've gone ahead and added a File Formats section to the YoungMX website to assist new users in getting the most out of YoungMX. If there is a file format you have that won't play in YoungMX, I suggest you visit the page to find out what files YoungMX may be missing. webmaster@youngmx.com The new YoungMX is finally out. This one is big enough to merit it's own installer, and if you have been holding out to get YoungMX, now is the time to download it. I've added ogg and wma support, finished off the cd playback, and fixed a ton of issues. Head over to download the installer, or auto-update now to experience the new joy! webmaster@youngmx.com If anyone noticed the downtime (probably not), it was because I was switching hosts. Now I will be able to publicly host Dj Doboy and other dj files and not worry about bandwidth limits nearly as much! Look for a subsite for legal music downloads in the near future. webmaster@youngmx.com Happy new year everyone! I hope everyone had a great time last night ringing in the new year. In other news, I should have the newest release of YoungMX out in a week or so. Head over to this page to have a look at the upcoming features. webmaster@youngmx.com I am putting out YoungMX 0.9.67 tonight. It includes Audio CD support (FINALLY!) and CDDB support as well. Go ahead and download it and give it a try. Look for an installer for this version too in a few days. webmaster@youngmx.com Well, I didn't know it could happen, but RIP Winamp. Should be good news to me, but props to a player that made it so far. webmaster@youngmx.com Apparently the plugins on the plugin page never were updated to work with the newest release, so I went ahead and put up working versions. If your scheduler or any other plugin has been acting up or not working, go ahead and redownload it to fix it. webmaster@youngmx.com I guess I got ambitious, our anxious, or something, because I put out 0.9.66 today. Like the other double numbered updates, it's only available via auto-update. This version is quite a bit more stable than the last, so be sure to grab it as soon as possible. webmaster@youngmx.com Just to let you guys know, I'm not dead, and I hope to have the next release of YoungMX out within a week or two, but no promises. I've fixed a bunch of bugs in the upcoming version, and optimized it a bit. A few things to look forward to are MUCH increased stability, slightly faster load/running times, and an addition to skins. webmaster@youngmx.com I put out 0.9.65 today. This mode finally fixes video mode issues that were rather annoying. YoungMX is now a 100% compatible directshow player, and will work much better with all video types. Also fixed in this version is the nasty ID3v2 bug. It is safe to use the editor again (I've already resumed using it myself). The cue mode now has an editor and some options as well. webmaster@youngmx.com A bug has been found today in the ID3v2 tagger. DO NOT SAVE OR REMOVE ID3V2 TAGS IN ANY OF YOUR MP3 FILES UNTIL THE NEXT VERSION. The current version of the ID3v2 tagger has a bug that WILL corrupt your mp3 file if you use it. It HAS been corrected already (and tested numerous times) on many different mp3 files and the bug is fixed for the next version, so please stay away from the ID3v2 tagger until the next release! webmaster@youngmx.com I put out 0.9.64 today. This version adds back in transparency and adds in cue mode (though its not complete), as well as fixing the video playing once and for all. webmaster@youngmx.com YoungMX 0.9.63 is out. Several people should be happy that I added back in the volume slider, but if you downloaded the Shiny skin, you need to re-download it to get the new graphics. This release is only available from the auto-update menu. webmaster@youngmx.com YoungMX 0.9.62 is now out! This version fixes a lot of things with skins, as well as adds back in wmv playability. Check the download section for a full list of updates and such. webmaster@youngmx.com Well, YoungMX 0.9.6 is out. You can download the installer (recommended), or update from within the client to get it. This version includes complete skin support, as talked about over the last few weeks, as well as may bugfixes and other such items. If you are using plugins, be sure to get the new versions of them as well, because from this version on, old plugin versions are not supported anymore. Enjoy the new release! webmaster@youngmx.com I put out a minor update today, it's just for the scheduler plugin. I got around to making it save whether or not each event was enabled, and it also allows you to drag files into the text box on the add/edit screen, so you dont have to browse for files. The next version of YoungMX will be able to drag files right off the lists into the scheduler as well. webmaster@youngmx.com Well, it's out. I've completed the new feature in YoungMX. Although not available for download, you can have a look at what's been added in the forums.

Expect the release within a week or two. webmaster@youngmx.com I'm working on something that will really bring YoungMX to the next level altogether. Stay tuned in the next few weeks to find out what it is.

Does anyone every read these things? Even I ignore them... webmaster@youngmx.com I put out a new version of 0.9.52 today. It fixes an issue I found in the online updater, and it also adds a new play button interface. Tell me what you think of the new interface...

If you are having problems downloading updates, E-Mail me and I'll help you out. webmaster@youngmx.com YoungMX 0.9.52 is out now. Update it from the auto update option again. This update fixes a few new things found, as well as adding audio codec lookup for AVI files. webmaster@youngmx.com I put up an update for 0.9.51 that fixes a few things and adds caching to YoungMX (much faster video loading, and somewhat faster audio loading). It would have been too much of a pain to make an installer, so just go to Media - Check for Updates, and get it there. Enjoy webmaster@youngmx.com I put up an update for 0.9.5 a day or two ago. It addresses a few issues i found after compiling the installer. To get it just go to Check for Updates on the Media menu, and let it install itself. webmaster@youngmx.com Well, version 0.9.5 is now up and working perfectly. Check it out in the downloads section! webmaster@youngmx.com I've been working hard on the next version of YoungMX. Expect it within a week or two. I've completely redone the skin mode and added several new placeable objects so that skins are actually useful now, as well as added another new feature and fixed some bugs. webmaster@youngmx.com I redid the news script to use mySQL instead of text files, and it's now much easier to do anything with it. So basically NOW the site is finished*.

* Note that when I say finished, I mean not finished. webmaster@youngmx.com I finished the screenshot section much eariler than scheduled. The site is basically completed for now. webmaster@youngmx.com I've just finished writing a news script for the site, and all of the other content is finished as well. I should have the screenshots section done by the end of the weekend, and other than that, this site is basically finished. webmaster@youngmx.com
