how come guiglobalmusicsearch.cs included in 1.6.4b release is old?

Are you aiming at the 'keyboard' code? If so, I checked it and with the modifications it didn't make any sense anymore, so the keyboard will not be switched anymore, unless you're using the SMS keyboard. If that is not what you mean, then please explain what you mean with 'old'. Old like version 1.6.3 or even older?

greetings

    You're right, I re-uploaded it as GlobalSearch_1.6.4b2.zip (also attached to this post). I don't think you'll see much of the diff you gave me, since when I applied the diff, the keyboard would be replaced by the same keyboard and after the input it would again be replaced by the same again :) Actually the switching of keyboards is obsolete in case of the 'normal' keyboard. When you use the SMS input, the keyboard is switched.

    I remember why I once made the keyboard switching code. It was because the original keyboard didn't work as well as the 'other' I tried to invoke in the old code, but I guess over the years that new code became obsolete itself since the original virtual keyboard has probably been updated, meaning a switch of keyboards is not needed anymore.

    I hope this makes any sense :) Nevertheless :D for helping me out with this, SilentExcept.

    Hi, whenever I press "search" nothing happens and following entry appears in the logfile (seems somehow keyboard cannot be retrieved?).
    What am I doing wrong? Tried to switch between SMS-style and standard keyboard in the plugins setup, but no change.
    Using latest SVN with monochrome skin.
    Any hints?

    Thanks for the great plugin, but I've got a couple of questions for you:

    1. Why isn't it listed in the Plugins/download section? I used the old version for ages and looked for updates on several occasions before I found this thread...

    2. Also it would be good if you kept the download link on the first post of this thread up to date with the latest version...

    This is an excellent plugin and I'm sure most MP users (certainly those with 1,000+ CD's in their collection!) would use it if they could find it...

    If it is listed elsewhere and I've missed it just ignore my comments! :D

    Keep up the great work!

    Hi Bleazle,

    Thanks for the great plugin, but I've got a couple of questions for you:
    1. Why isn't it listed in the Plugins/download section? I used the old version for ages and looked for updates on several occasions before I found this thread...

    I understand what you mean, but unfortunately this is the way I planned it to go. After Global Search 0.1.6.1 I heard of some bugs and created 'Global Music Search 1.6.3'. I did not yet 'release' it yet because I first wanted people to test it, before I post it to the plug-in repository, I hope you understand. In version 1.6.3 were still bugs, that's why we have version 1.6.4. at the moment.

    2. Also it would be good if you kept the download link on the first post of this thread up to date with the latest version...
    That is also understandable and normally that is what I do, except with version 1.6.4, since it had just a small bugfix and I didn't know if the bug would actually be fixed. That's why version 1.6.3 is posted at the initial post.

    This is an excellent plugin and I'm sure most MP users (certainly those with 1,000+ CD's in their collection!) would use it if they could find it...
    Well, as said, it is listed in the plug-in respository and we're not far away from a new release, so hold on! Until that time, version 0.1.6.1 is still listed in the repository.

    If it is listed elsewhere and I've missed it just ignore my comments! :D
    Nope, you're right, but I hope you understand this is the way I planned it to go :)

    Keep up the great work!
    I'll try :)
