Recommendation + Features

[LegendNed]

Recommendation: Make the EQBands an array-based system instead of doing each individually. This will make it easier adding multiple bands at a time. For example: [ { band: 0, gain: 1 }, { band: 1, gain: 1 } ]

Issue: Converting a lavalink track array to playlist fails to generate thumbnails for Soundcloud resulting in: https://img.youtube.com/vi/O:https://api-v2.soundcloud.com/media/soundcloud:tracks:439450881/afb1cd77-3e28-4d19-8eea-cea2da89eca2/stream/hls/maxresdefault.jpg

Code:

let playlist = await bot.player.getSongs(bot, track)
playlist = bot.player.Utils.newPlaylist({
    name: "Generated Playlist",
    trackCount: playlist.length,
    duration: playlist.reduce((a, b) => a + b.info.length, 0),
    tracks: playlist
}, message.author)
player.queue.add(playlist.tracks)
if (!player.playState) player.play()

Issue: Skipping songs plays the song. Methods attempted to skip player.stop() and player.play() Queue:

Queue [Map] {
  2 => [Object],
  3 => [Object],
  4 => [Object],
  5 => [Object],
  6 => [Object],
  7 => [Object],
  8 => [Object],
  9 => [Object],
  10 => [Object],
  11 => [Object],
  12 => [Object],
  13 => [Object],
  14 => [Object],
  15 => [Object],
  16 => [Object],
  17 => [Object],
  18 => [Object],
  19 => [Object],
  20 => [Object],
  21 => [Object],
  22 => [Object],
  23 => [Object],
  24 => [Object],
  25 => [Object],
  player: [Player]
}

Loops the second (2) if skipping is attempted. At player.js line 194 the topmost song is never removed from my understanding.

@LegendNed Hello! We will release the Array system for Bands in the next release. As for the skipping song issue, can you tell me if you enabled player.trackRepeat? If you are unsure can you send me the code where you actually spawn the player? Cause it seems like Player#trackRepeat is enabled. Also the thumbnail issue for soundcloud will be fixed asap. Till then this thread is open for discussion.

• [x] Change Bands system to an Array.
• [x] Fix the thumbnail problem.
• [x] Fix track skip bug.

@ThatAnonymousG I do not have trackRepeat on, it successfully skips the first song and it fails afterwards. Code:

        if (!bot.player.get(message.guild.id)) bot.player.spawn({
            guild: message.guild,
            voiceChannel: message.member.voice.channel,
            textChannel: message.channel,
            deafen: true,
            trackRepeat: false,
            queueRepeat: false,
            skinOnError: true
        })

I see. Can you give me the code where you skip the songs? Cause I have tested this a lot of times and it never failed. @LegendNed

Just confirmed the skipping bug. Fixing it asap. Thanks for reporting.

Version 3.3.0 has been released and that should fix all the above requests. As of the thumbnail issue please note that the thumbnails only work if you are using YouTube as data source because other sources require an API key. So if you are using something like SoundCloud please use their API to get a thumbnail link.

Please check the latest changelog here.
