Post New Requests Here / IDEA: Desktop System Specs Info
« on: November 21, 2006, 10:01 PM »
Aite i'm talking about something like this



Basically a little tool that when run will sit in the tray & provide realtime info on customisable info on your system which you can place where you want.



These images are taken from Bginfo ~ microsofts very old suggestion of a tool to do this - http://www.microsoft...tilities/BgInfo.mspx

I know theres a few out there like samurize but really they are like entire programs & just consume too much memory. Just thinking of something simple along the lines of the first picture above, simple straightforward. Refreshed every say 5 minutes? or configurable.

Let me know if this has been done/suggested before/a better one exists anyway.

Cheers!

cool thanks solved i guess ~

Relatively simple concept. I had a feeling it had already been suggested but a search for highlight turned up nothing :(

Basically a tool which when you run, everytime you view a folder in windows, the background colours of filenames are adjusted if they have been created recently.

Maybe if the creator was really keen they could make it customisable but as an example.

File created today: Green Background Colour for file name text
Yesterday: Yellow
past yesterday, within 7 days: Orange

May not seem useful to some but hey sometimes it's handy to find out files you've recently downloaded & see whats new etc

4
yeah but it doesn't name things according to how you want just downloads the file with the name it already has :(

5
I checkout heaps of comic strips & cartoons with opera browser & sometimes firefox browser. I like to save them & come back have a laugh later.

It'd be cool if there was a little extension which when I went right click -> save image as, that i could type a name ie cartoon1 or 01. And hit save, and if cartoon1.jpg already existed in that folder, for the program to auto change to name saved to as cartoon1a.

So you could just go through & find the comics you click and just type the name and it would auto append an a - Z on the end if the filename already existed. ie. cartoon1.jpg, then cartoon1a.jpg then cartoon1b.jpg

:)

yeah thats useful

Just wondering if skrommel / someone else is keen to modify skrommels clip step? https://www.donation...ndex.php?topic=409.0

It'd be great if a function could be added in so that if you copy an image or something, it actually copies. With clip step on, image copying etc doesn't work just text. Otherwise clipstep is great!!!

Would be good. Just a program that will get lyrics for a whole folder of music I specify (with recursive option). Tag runner was great in theory. But after a tagging run of around 1500 songs. It failed to apply lyrics to 550 songs. Heaps of these songs, it would find the lyrics, even download the text file, but not apply them.

so yeah it'd be nice if you could holla with a better program

9
Looks ok but I have about 3000 songs I want to find lyrics for and it's not really feasible to leave the computer going all night every night for the next few weeks+ to find lyrics for them all :(

10
had some problems with tagrunner. Like it'd download lyrics to text file for a song and then it wouldn't apply them. Really weird.

11
I think you're onto it. I ran it again.

"F:\My Documents\My Music\batchlyrics.exe" "C:\*.mp3" Overwrite

It popped up with Download Lyrics in the tray and  the pussycat dolls - buttons. Then the link to the lyric page came after that. Then it went away. I checked the song but no lyrics were added though :(

Oh but I noticed the lyrics were downloaded to a file called file.htm in the folder that the EXE file was in.  :tellme:

12
by command line. Do you mean. making a shorcut and addnig -AddLyrics "c:\mp3\*.mp3" rescurse to the end of the target box?

Cause i did that and tested with the song The Pussycat Dolls - Buttons (id3 tag: artist: the pussycat dolls - title: buttons) -- and it didn't seem to do anythign when i ran it. Heres the lyric on azlyrics. http://www.azlyrics....atdolls/buttons.html

I set the target box of the shorcut to:

"F:\My Documents\My Music\batchlyrics.exe" -AddLyrics "C:\Documents and Settings\fatjoe\Desktop\*.mp3" Recurse

not tooo familiar with AHK but I downloaded it ages ago and I used AHK2Exe version 1.0.40.06 to try convert your code from a .ahk file to exe but when i ran the finished program I got error:

error at line 8.

line text: #NOEnv
Error: this line does not contain a recognized action.

Any ideas?

$10 paypal or donation credits or whatever you guys callit for person who can do this.

Nothing fancy. Just select a directory, maybe a checkbox for search lyrics for songs in subfolders also. Then just one at a time grab a song in the folder & seek lyrics for it based on title & artist in the ID3 tag from a few lyric sites like elyrics.net & elyricsworld.com etc and if found add it to the Lyrics section of the ID3 tag.

15
That Xentinent program colours based on file type not File last modified date. The Thumbnails program for images was cool though.

16
Yeah my main problem is I want to do this without playing the song. I just want to run it and get it to try find lyrics for my entire mp3 library i define ~

17
willing to donate a few bling blings if that's what it'll take to get this done. Shouldn't be too hard to create

18
...My latest script doesn't remove blank lines because TW asked me for it not to remove them ;)
But now, the script works well for you, right? :)

yes, it works for me. :up: so i'm getting a bit ambitious but with my limited skill in AHK, i need your help...
i want to add a check-box that overwrites the output file (see screenshot) which i've managed but i can't implement in the code.

Gui, Add, Checkbox, x16 y115 CheckedGray vOverwrite_File, Overwrite output file?
...
;Refer check-box option, to overwrite existing output file?
If Overwrite_File
 IfExist,%filetowrite%
   {
    FileDelete,%filetowrite%
   }

now the above code doesn't overwrite the existing file, it only appends it. do you know why?

bro can you post an EXE version

19
crucial part though bro is the actual slider for volume control in the tray itself. Rather than having to click and then do it~

20
yeah theres a program called Zortam MP3 Studio which has a feature where you can batch download lyrics. The problem is that the program is pretty useless cause it has I think only one lyric source which has a very limited supply of lyrics.

So yeah it'd be cool if someone did something similar to that prgoram but managed to implement maybe a few good lyric sites like elyricsworld.com which has something like 130,000 lyrics. Few of those sites and you'd have one hell of a program.

21
Well basically some of ya's may or may not know that mp3 ID3 tag can store lyrics for songs too. I'm wondering if anyone can create a program that you specify a directory of mp3s and it reads each mp3 one by one getting the Artist & Title from ID3 tag and then searching a site/ a few sites like http://www.elyricsworld.com/ or various others and just downloading the lyrics for that song if any matches are found and yeah just adding that to the ID3 tag of the song.

Would be pretty cool cause then when you're playing your songs with programs like mediaplayer or winamp you can use a plugin / built in and view the lyrics of the song too.

Sure beats finding the lyrics for all the songs in your library one by one  :-\

22
cool. whens that v2 due. Any list of other features in it around?

23
Anyway to set specific folders into certain groups.

Then have some sorta easy access way to select the group you want to search from before searching? Like maybe a drop down box to the right of the search box where you pick the group based on your list of groups then search?

Would this not be a fine addon to FARR????????????  :-*
