Yay! Been waiting for a quiz add-on. Having some technical problems with it though, sometimes when i am a few questions in, a song other than on the list will start playing. As if i had selected a song to play properly (the name is listed at the top, a dialog pops up and the album artwork is changed). I then just have to guess what song was supposed to be playing.
Ideas:
+ I think it would be good to see the correct result highlighted, or printed out if you get it wrong.
+ I see you seem to have three lives, as in you fail after three times. Would be great if this was represented by three images (Maybe three eggs that break once you lose a life)
+ In the far future i would love to see added to this album artwork support, so you could be shown a segment of a cover, and you have to guess what album it is.

Ok sorry i think i got a little confused, i understand now that there is a set maximum number of questions (default 3). I thought it would have been keep going till you get X wrong. In that case i suggest that as an option :-P

Need a Highscore maybe eave a online highscore :)

There is another problem i have found, you can cheat far too easily :-P
If you listen to a song for a while to work out what it is, you can just use the sliding bar at the top to put it back to the start and then click the right option, and get full points!

GeekShadow

You can play with Artists now ;)

I don't know if this issue has been notified : when I increase the number of questions, each X songs, the song playing is not in the list.

anyway, this add-on is great to mesure our musical culture.

EvilEel

Hey, ive intstalled this add-on several times, even using the previous version, but whenever i open it and press start, songbird immediatly proceeds to crash and ask for an error report. i actually really want this add-on, so, any sugesstions?

Acosheo

The same thing that happens to EvilEel happens to me too. I'm using v. 1.0.0.

chefjim756

I am having the same problem. I want this add-on but everytime I start it up it crashes songbird.

Davcruz

Having the same problem. Every time I start up it, songbird crashes.

Sensai

I saw that this had been recently updated and decided to try it.

Sadly...it doesn't work for me. Well, let me correct that: it takes a while to load up after I press start and then, when it finally does load, it crashes.

I'm running Vista 32bit, the latest official Songbird release.

Grazfather

Hah GeekShadow your plug on my add-on's page worked. I'm checking this one out right now.

misscharli

I can't use it because I have the Songbird version 1.0. Can you please update the quiz, because i really like it and would use it :(.

kosram

awesome, but we can't take album on choice for the quizz just music and artist, i need album too ^^

thanks for this very great add :)

martin_bighomer

great add-on
however, it doesn't work with the German language pack.
So I have to restart in English.
Please add support to German.
thanks

rsjtdrjgfuzkfg

GeekShadow

@Marko

Then select BirdQuizz :)

Catw

I love this ! thanks !

moonsetsky

This game is quite addictive, thank you!

forseti99

Not working :(
First song plays, you guess the name, it goes to next song and... it doesn't play.

How will I guess the song's name if it is not playing? o_O

Am using SongBird 1.8.0

GeekShadow

@forseti99
Could you try to play with a playlist ?

forseti99

Ok, done.
It didnt work, although the playlist only had 5 songs it didnt work.

By the way, i forgot to tell you that this error message shows up after the second try:

There was an unexpected error, please try re-installing BirdQuizz.
[Exception... "Component returned failure code: 0x80004003 (NS_ERROR_INVALID_POINTER) [sbIMediacoreSequencer.playURL]" nsresult: "0x80004003 (NS_ERROR_INVALID_POINTER)" location: "JS frame :: chrome://birdquizz/content/media-page.js :: anonymous :: line 499" data: no]

I mean, i play, the game ends, i start a new game and the error shows up.

I reinstalled SongBird but nothing. Am using Windows 7 x64.
Am gonna try in a virtual machine with XP, i'll tell you if it works there.

Musicbear

I get the same error as the above mentioned when I try to use BurdQuizz:
There was an unexpected error, please try re-installing BirdQuizz.
[Exception... "Component returned failure code: 0x80004003 (NS_ERROR_INVALID_POINTER) [sbIMediacoreSequencer.playURL]" nsresult: "0x80004003 (NS_ERROR_INVALID_POINTER)" location: "JS frame :: chrome://birdquizz/content/media-page.js :: anonymous :: line 499" data: no]

I also re-installed BirdQuiz, but the error is still there.
I use Songbird 1.8

GeekShadow

@Musicbear @forseti99
I will look a this issue thanks.

Solidsoftman

I've got the same problem. Just some thoughts. I've got nearly 4000 songs in my library (but won't work with a 5 song playlist). I use default skin and have installed add-ons: MLyrics, MediaFlow, Focus Track and Last Track Resume (all updated). I don't know anything about programming, but maybe one of the latter add-ons might be conflicting?????

Arkanif

same problem :(
as far as I understand problem is here (line 499)
gMM.sequencer.playURL(uri);
But I think you, guys, understand javascript better then me
