Hi there, new version uploaded.-wr975 (January 27, 2011, 10:07 AM)

Great! The only bug I can find in this version is that the "next song in X minutes" info (when you hover over the tray icon) is not updated as time passes... it always (for example) says 15 minutes, even a minute before the file is then correctly being played.

And how about adding info (when you hover over the tray icon) when RandomPlayer is in 'sleep mode'?


Right-click tray menu added.-wr975 (January 27, 2011, 10:07 AM)

Nice, could you please also (re-)add a menu item to pause the script? :)

And how about using the default system editor instead of Editor for songlist ("songList" = typo?) and configuration?


About the blacklisted process... the default.ini had Skype.exe blacklisted. Perhaps it was active? The default.ini now comes with an empty blacklist.

Hmm.... maybe it was running in the background. I suggest you rephrase that bubble error message. I had NO IDEA what it meant... and I requested that feature!  ;D  Maybe change it to something like this?

No sound because blacklisted process
is active; see configuration.

Also, I'd like an option to have RandomPlayer announce only *that* it's about to play something, but not *what*... some surprise factor. :)

> next song in X minutes

It was originally meant to be one time only task tray tip, but then it got into an infotip ... which doesn't auto-update, of course. You're right.

I have no time to work on this script this weekend, but expect an update next week.  

brotherS:
Ok. :)

Another idea (in addition to the sleep mode) would be an option to be able to set the PC idle time in minutes (I used A_TimeIdlePhysical for that in the past) after which RandomPlayer stops playing stuff too, even outside of the set sleep times.

So when you sleep longer on a Saturday or Sunday (with the PC running), RandomPlayer won't start to play something before you get up.

Have a good weekend!

A new version is online... see my first post.

> "next song in X minutes" info

Messing around with date and time values is always a task for me. But I think I got it. :-) Trying to keep it simple, X minutes will never be more than 59.

Done 5x

See the .ini file to activate/deactivate settings.

I've tested it quite some time, but there's a lot to test already. So I hope there're no bugs.

Enjoy!  :Thmbsup:
