Music Plugin Beta

[MixMan]

0.0.0.62
--------
- Fix for D0..D9 input in the OnKeyDown(). The incoming keydown will be thrown (e.SuppressKeyPress=True) and
a new OnKeyPress("number") will be created. This for ALL kind of devices, who sends OnKeyDown, even PC.
- Fixes for PLAY button on the left. It handled PLAYLISTs and MOST PLAYED lists completly wrong, played wrong item in the list.
- When Left MENU button is activated a Keys.Right will be sent to make sure that LIST item has focus. - Fix for inputbox when handling playlist, more responsive and updated correctly
- Fix for EditTags, more responsive and updated correctly
- The <DontRespondOnCharsFreetextInput> is NOT ignored if there is an popup visible! This is needed so all chars may be used when adding/renaming playlist and tagging songs.

Very good. Thanks for the testing on the PCH.
Hopefully we have tracked down most of the bugs now.

I have "tweaked" AutoLyrix, so I can start it with Ctrl-L from keyboard and press Ctrl-Alt-X when a song is playing and get lyrics to show up like this.
Perhaps version 2 will have built in lyrics screen. We'll see.

Now that looks like a cool feature!
I may end up knowing all the words to Hanna Montana songs after all!!!! :p

My daughter is 14 and I hear singing Hip-Hip all days.
I also put all my Ultrastar songsin the Music folder view and implemented start of Ultrastar from Music wirh Ctrl-U (in the keymapping with next upload)
Ultrastar Deluxe is like Singstar, but for PC and it has really smooth animations and GUI.

Hi MixMan,

First of all. It is allready a very nice program.

I have a question though. Maybe I'm doing something wrong but is it possibility to add the MP3's of an artist or an album to a playlist with the record button on the remote? It looks like only single numbers can be added to a playlist. It would be nice if you could add that feature if it not already there.

If it is in the Music plugin please let me know how to activate it....

Tnx..

You can only add one song at the time to a playlist.
Your request is noted.

I uploaded the "final" version to the wiki.
Now the freetext search on PCH works, we don't intend to put in anymore features in the plugin for a while.
There might com some more features for the MusicScanner in the coming month.
So this thread is more or less dead now I guess.

Enjoy the Music plugin.

It's really looking good. I inadvertently found out the the alpha search worked in the Music Folder view too, I assumed incorrectly because it wasn't database driven it wouldn't work.

Good work MixMan and BekKen.

Actually, the search function is really simple, I made a quick test when I started to implement the search function and it worked well so I used it. The only time there is a lookup in the DB is when you are in the root level of Artist or Album view, to list Artists or Album based on the first pressed key. The rest of the search is only "match and jump" in current viewed list, thats why it works in Folder View too.

Thank you all guys for all debugging and feedback. As MixMan said, this is it for this time, unless any obvious bugs are found.
