LUPINGLADE  Get the new update, we've fixed those issues.  
(Version 1.57)

GOODTIME  I appreciate the review. There were a slew of things that were be being fixed for several of our trusted sponsors.

Today we had a spindump issue with a MacBook Pro sponsor and we did offer that person a special build to test and get back to us.

Currently we are working on a Tiger counterpart to StarPlayr2 and it will take several weeks. After that is StarPlayr2 2.1 which may take months.

The developer of this software is addicted to developing StarPlayr (possible OCD tendencies). We have heard rumors of users becoming addicted to StarPlayr as well.

I am going to break down and put the auto update feature in there. It seems to have been requested enough. It will be a super simple auto-updater. Nothing complex. On launch it will notify the user that an update is ready for download. They click yes and it will download the update and with the disk image popped open. I am not sure if I am going to have it install it, but it is simple enough to drag the app to the Applications folder. And the user will no longer have to keep hunting for updates.

Updates will thin out as StarPlayr2 becomes more and more stable. Our focus now is on Tiger and the next set of cool features. There are many things that did not make it into the program yet, so if we are the best, 6 months to a year, the bar will be set even higher.

Goodtime

Note to editor: There is something wrong with the SiriusMac votes in the SP2 area and with the StarPlayr2 votes in the SiriusMac area. Somehow the votes are linked. One of our users told us about this issue. SiriusMac used to be linked with NiceMac, but it is no longer apart of our company. StarPlayr2 and SiriusMac are separate products and the voting on MacUpdate should be separate as well.

ALLOUTMACSTODAY  With the new Sparkle (1.5), it does not notify the user about anything updates on first run. Gets a better first impression :)

They aren't linked. MacUpdate users make suggestions and MacUpdate users vote on those suggestions. We only provide the opportunity for our users to suggest other softwares and vote as they wish. We have no other control over the matter.

GOODTIME  Not to make a big stink about this, but if they are not linked then how come when a user votes for SiriusMac, it adds the same vote for StarPlayr. And if a user votes for StarPlayr, it adds the same vote to SiriusMac.

Try it and you'll see what I am talking about.

I seriously doubt both programs have the exact same votes as well.

Try voting for one of them, but before you do check the votes on both. Then vote for one. Then you'll see the other one gets updated with the same # incremented by one. That is messed up.

MACUPDATE ADMIN  Just checked and they're not linked. Thanks for your concern.  
(Version 2.0.18.2)

GOODTIME  Can you explain then why SiriusMac and StarPlayr2 always show the same # of votes? Try loading both and refreshing the page.

Maybe in your database its not linked, but there is a bug somewhere in the display showing the same # of votes.

That is the proper way to further deal with this, thanks.
