Issues on Windows 7

There are some users currently experiencing problems running SampleSort.  The problem has been identified and we are currently working on a solution for an update to the application to take care of the issue.  If you are experiencing any problem this solution may prove useful, not just for SampleSort but for other issues you may be having.

It turns out that some installation of Microsoft Office install a “Phantom Drive” that seems to appear as “Q:\” on users machines.  This is related to a tool called “Microsoft Office Click-to-Run 2010″.  You can read more about this particular issue here.

We will be releasing a new version of the application within the next few days.

Regards,

The JamSoft Team

0.6.8 & Current Issues

We are currently working very hard to get the release of v0.6.8 out the door as we discussed a few days ago.  This is a very high priority for us as there are issues with 0.6.6 (the currently available release) running on Windows 7.  A recent update from Microsoft has changed the way some automation features work and this has had an impact on SampleSort.  We have already implemented a fix for this which is included in the v0.6.8 release which will be available on this site hopefully later today!

Promotion

I hope we’re all enjoying the summer at the moment and what a cracker it is.  Things have been a bit quiet on the SampleSort development front of late as we have been trying to decide on the best course of action on how to move things forward.

We have been talking to end users to try to get a feel for where we should take the application.  I have also been approaching various industry folks with a view to getting their input on various topics as well.  We at a point where we are collating all of this together and should have a good road-map for moving this all forward in the not too distant future.

Meanwhile, if any of you people out there in user land feel the urge to do a spot of promotion on our behalf we’d love to hear from you!

SampleSort v0.6.6 Released

We have now released v0.6.6 of SampleSort.

Included in this update is a completely new categorisation engine.  This new categorisation engine has also added a new configuration setting to turn the ‘fuzzy’ matching process on or off.   To support this feature there is a new button on the Database page for recategorising the database.  If you change the categorisation engine settings (more control features to come) this button will re-catalogue the database contents.

You can now also specify your external audio editor application, once this has been done the data grids within SampleSort contain an option to open a file directly into the editor.

Other changes are all too development orientated to bore you with the details!  Hope you enjoy!  As ever all feedback is very welcome.

SampleSort v0.6.6

The next version of SampleSort (v.0.6.6) is currently in development and is looking like it will be available within the next 6 weeks.  This version will have a greater number of maintenance changes / bug fixes as opposed to lots of extra functionality included.

The major part of this release will be a completely re-worked automatic file categorisation process and a new ‘Fuzzy Matching’ feature of this process.  The ‘Fuzzy’ bit means that files will still be placed into a primary and secondary category but it will also allow them to fall into any other number of categories based on what SampleSort finds.

Beta Testers Wanted

Beta testing is an incredibly important phase in the development life-cycle of any piece of software.  It’s a process of making available pre-release versions of software to end-users to be put through its paces prior to general release.

To focus on delivering better software we are always looking for more beta testers to join our team and make an active contribution to the project. You will be required to participate by downloading and running the latest pre-release beta builds of SampleSort with a view to providing detailed feedback on your experiences using the application.

By taking part you will be able to feed into the development process and get to see your contribution, ideas and requests realised as we move through the pre-release beta phase of each version of the application.

This is an exciting and very rewarding process of making great software.  If you feel like this is something you are interested in and have the time to take part we would really appreciate your input.

To get stuck in and start helping get in touch via the link below and we will make the arrangements for you to be added to the beta team.
