- First version with Lazarus Free Pascal compiler is running (24/05/2013).
I am happy to announce that the first version with Lazarus Free Pascal compiler is finally running.
There is a lot of work to be done to be at the level of the Delphi version because there are some components that need to be replaced so that they work with Free Pascal Compiler but since the start was made, it's just matter of time to make it work as it should.
I am so happy that i wanted to share it with you :) - Moving to Lazarus Free Pascal compiler (18/05/2013).
As you probably know i have spent in the past about 100 euros to buy the Delphi XE Compiler Starter Edition.
So i had the hope that sometime in the future, Embarcadero would decide to give to hobbist delelopers like me a Starter Edition that would support multiplatform code and so Passion Audio Player would be available to users with Mac or Linux and tablets with android e.t.c.
Lately they released Delphi XE4 and in order to make multiplatform code you have to pay some thousand euros, a value that is forbiden for me. So 3 versions after my Delphi XE version they keep supporting ONLY Professional programmers.
So the only solution for me is to move to Lazarus, which gives me the possibility to produce multiplatform code and i hope in the future a linux version will be released.
It will take enough time to convert my code to Lazarus, but i think it will worth the time.
Maybe some features will be reduced in feature versions, but version 3.0 is very good i think and so you will be able to use it for some years, until i release an equal one with Lazarus.
Thanks for the support and i hope you will have the patience to wait until the next version :) - Windows 7/8 User Account Control Error Fix for Passion Audio Player v3.0.
It seems that on some PCs that have Windows 7/8 installed, the User Account Control system doesn't allow Passion Audio Player to write on the hard disk the passap3.ini settings file and it results in a error that says : "Write String Error: Settings, Options_SkinToBeLoaded".
This error occurs when you try to close Passion Audio Player.
The solution is the following:
1. Uninstall Passion Audio Player.
2. Run the downloaded passap30.exe installation program as administrator.
To do this right click on passap30.exe and click "run as administrator"
3. Everything now will work fine.
I can't understand why this User Account Control doesn't allow Passion Audio Player to write on the hard disk, since during the installation you give it permission to install but for now this is the only solution i can provide. - Passion Audio Player v3.0 released (11/11/2012).

- NEW Passion Audio Player plugin that enables VST plugins support released. (11/01/2012).
This new plugin is in BETA stage and has some known issues and bugs but since i'm rewriting several parts of the Passion Audio Player code and a new release may delay for several months i thought it would be better to release this plugin now until a final version is released together with next Passion Audio Player version.

- Passion Audio Player is still active :).
Hi all.
I would like to let you know that Passion Audio Player is still an active project and that i will try to release a new version soon. The previous year was a difficult one for me but now i can continue the development. I have also bought the new Delphi XE compiler and i'm making some tests to make sure that everything will work ok with the new compiler and program code.
Concerning the site now i have moved the links to sites from the front page to a new page called links.
I have also added to the site one more advertisement to the left and i hope this will help me to cover the costs of the new compiler and site costs.
Thank you all for your support and messages and i hope i will be able to release the new version soon.
The passion remains :)
