Didn't experience any troubles yet with the beta. There is however one small thing I think is a pity : I have to uninstall my current version in order to try the beta. This scares me a bit, because well, it is a beta, and it could corrupt my database. Ok, I know : I should have backups, and I do, but it would be nice if I could use both versions sideways. Probably there's a good reason why this isn't the case, but I just wanted to share this thought with you.
Otherwise : nice work Andrei! I really enjoyed the mass change feature! It fixed my database in a couple of seconds! Cool!

(For who'se interested : I took a custom field, and filled it everywhere with the name of an HTML page, that will tell my visitors that there is no extra information available yet for that artist/album. I mean to gradually collect information about artists/ albums, put it in an HTML page, and that filename will then go into the custom field.)

Hi,

Unfortunately you are right. OrangeCD uses specific registry key to locate its database manager DLL. At a time, registry key can have just one value, so two different version cannot coexist. It is possible to fix, but frankly I don't think it is worth fixing.

Anyway, thanks for comments.
