I did a smal update. The minute finally reads corectly but the seconds is a !@#$%.(Once I have that fixed I will immediately post the update including the progress bar).

Known Bugs:
-The clock is a tough one Dont worry guys I'm working on that
-Process bar goes out of the screen if the song is longer than 10 minutes.
-The crosshair(mouse) somehow ends up under the buttons and we dont like that!

LINKY: http://s21.quicksharing.com/v/5417988/mp3_player.zip.html

Updates:

------------------
-Now the mouse is gone until you load your song then it dissapears again(Fox this update was just for your skin too.)
-Foxes new skin is the best there was made so far so I made his skin official.
-The clock is now 50% acurate... the minute (sometimes breaks) seconds is broken! >_<.
------------------
Next update what will be expected:
-----------------
-100% Acurate clock
-Fixed process bar
-everything skinnable(Including the font)
-Maybe if I get far enough I'll add a ini file so you can move everything around!
-----------------

Enjoy!

ummm I'm am not using game maker.I'm using the actual program Fecal matter

I didn't say you were using Game Maker. I was just assuming that what you're programming it in has a function for rounding and a function for writing text. I don't know what the functions are, so I put round() and write(). But, apparently it won't work anyway, because the time didn't work like you said it did.

Hm.  Once again, it's a nifty tool, but I'm afraid I'm probably not going to use it, at least not if I want to use my computer for other things at the same time.  On a related note, I think your "CPU usage" measurement is kinda wrong.  Here's a screenshot:


My CPU usage shot up to 100% and stayed there the whole time.  Opening up Paint to paste the screenshot took a good 20 seconds.

It's a cool tool, but it hogs so many resources that I won't use it.  Sorry.

no thats the exact value dan. It's using not even 1 cpu


EDIT!: also task manager lies! helios taught me this trust me! the If this was using 100% of your cpu your computer would be lagging like Fecal matter

It may not be at 100%, but it's certainly not using only 1% of the CPU.  I already told you, my computer does lag as a result of having it open.  It's not as bad as other times that it's lagged, but it is noticeable. 

I have a question though:  Is the arrow cursor in the mp3 player application supposed to make smooth movements?  It lags horribly for me, so it will jumpe from place to play if I simply move my mouse.  It seems to only be refreshing the position about 3 times per second, and it looks odd.  This isn't a major issue, but like with the other problem I have, it is noticeable.

now the mouse...well its a memory leak that i just recently discovered with the mp3ID tag reader. I'm currently tracking this cause. This only affects the mp3 player(for me) and not other apps. Also your sound isn't affected in any way neither.

EDIT: alright reduced the lag. Still choppy but it's not as bad as it was before. Also the mem reader is confirmed correct. the cpu usage reader is correct it has to be. Helios would agree to me on them two. anyways I'll upload the update

It hogging the resources because you main loop has nothing in it and it never hands back control the the OS, stick a PollSystem() command in the loop and it should reduce the CPU usage. Also the CPU usage your basing it off is the FMOD cpu usage not your programs CPU usage.

It sure is an improvement. But... I can play all the songs, but there's one song (Analogue by A-ha, if that matters XD ) and it can play it, but it generally freezes, means I can't do anything or normally close it. It plays the song alright, but nothing works anymore.
Edit: I saw you don't got any icon for your program... not like that would be the worst to worry about, but I made an ico which has an  image for the sizes 32x32, 24x24, 16x16 and 8x8, since it changes it's size depending on its own exe-icon, the window-icon etc... give me a call on MSN or send an email if you want me to send you. :)
