MusicBee Tips

Installation & issues

MusicBee installs and runs fine, except a few issues. I tested it (and
using it as my audio player) on elementary OS Freya 32bit. Here are the steps:

1. Create a new bottle (Windows XP - don't use Win 7 bottle, it has additional issues);

2. Install .NET Framework 4.0 from Runtime components (if it's not
installed, the MusicBee setup will try to install it itself and it won't
work);

3. Install MusicBee.



Here are the issues I found so far:

- there's a black horizontal bar on the bottom, I don't know what's supposed to be there, but I can't make it "go away";

- not all the skins work! I tried only a few, and some worked, some
didn't (like those in the Dark Metro section). If you choose a skin that
doesn't work, after MusicBee restarts it will throw an error about not
enough memory and crash. The only way to make it start again is to
delete the section from StartupSettings.ini (you can find
the file in "yourmusicbeebottle\drive_c\Users\crossover\Application Data\MusicBee". Just delete that line, save the file and start MusicBee, it will have the default theme;

- visualizers don't work (it's just a black screen).
