Title: AIMP shows no skins
Post by: bogy on December 22, 2020, 12:35:07
Hi,
first and foremost; sorry i don't read cyrillic nor do i speak russian, so please bear with me...
Second Greetings from the Evil Capitalist European country Belgium, i know i'm now talking to cccp (ussr) people :) I do appreciate your communism thinking and what you did with AIMP ... In my eyes the best Soundplayer since WinAmp went the way of the Dodo.

I've been silently spying on you since AIMPv2.60 b525 ....  yeah quite a few years (10+)... and i always loved AIMP, nothings plays my tracks better...  (back then it still had winamp compatibility for plugins if i'm remembering right),

Now, after this waay to long intro.... my issue...
Well; i can't seem to install any new skins on my android AIMP (I have a Samsung Galaxy A51, great phone nonetheless). 
What i did is the following;
I went into AIMP and used the 'download more skins' link, then i downloaded a bunch of skins i wanted to test, I moved those skins from my download folder to /SDCard/Mydox&+/AIMP/Skins
then i went into AIMP (which is playing music from /SDCard/Mydox&+/Music/BASS folder, so on the same sdcard as my skins, only another subdir of Mydoxandmore(&+)
In AIMP i went into Settings/Interface/Skins/+ (to add skins) and went to the folder i put the skins in before.  Then AIMP shows not a single new skin; I'm only getting the 3 base skins Charm / Bliss / Pandemic ...

Ow a second question (or request if anyone reading this can help): Please convert the following skin for pc to android version .... Koyna_RN  this is by far the most versatile skin i've seen and it's my default for some time, i'd love to be able to do the same things on the phone...; (though i see some difficulties for conversion but hey, take it as a challenge...)


Great forum of AIMP-users and Creators; I already thank you in advance for reading into my problems ... it's always the same with those capitalists, right? :)  (it's obvious that i'm an '80s kid getting somewhat older and demented cause of a bad social structure)...  Thx again guys!

Надо не только зайти в нужную папку, но и выбрать нужные файлы.

You just forgot to select skins in the dialog, as the AKHod user say in previous post.

Don't worry, we are living in capitalist Russia, not in USSR.

Hey, i found the issue ....
if you download through AIMP, then the skins get the .BIN extension.... manually changing that to .ACSM fixed the issue... now i can check all those skins...

so, i don't know why, but if you use AIMP to download the skins, the files get .BIN extension instead of .ACSM  extension, maybe fix that issue?

i wish my browser (foxy the firefox) would accept some communist roubles then :)
