SSPlus Screensaver - Photo Slideshow Beta

[ACTCMS]

I wasn't implying that but specialty groups like "The Scottish Bear Hunters" would be hard to find.

We don't have Bears in Scotland now, so they are a very old band - I don't play them much now - very dated...

The trouble with fanart is usually finding the HD quality and ratio required for full screen backgrounds. Do we really want HD James Taylor without hair reminding us how old we are?

Martin

Now, if we got James Taylor WITH hair, that really would remind me how old I am...

The only problem that is remaining is the last problem where cover art disappears but the "Now Playing" text still shows until the first move. That should be in both logs.

Martin

What Button/Keystroke(s) do you use to get this?

Code:

OnKeyDown() called: MediaPreviousTrack

and what should it do - especially when you are already at the first track in the playlist?

On my keyboard I use the multimedia keys for play, stop, volume and skipping tracks. On track 1 MusicBox4 will restart the 1st song.

OK I asked because looking at the log snippet below, I don't see any keystroke(s) which would trigger the "PLAYBACK_AUDIO_STOPPING_VIA_REQUESTED_STOP" event. I would expect to see a log entry like "OnKeyDown() called: {CTRL}S, Control" which SSPlus recognises as a change of mode and immediately clears all music playing skin variables and does a move.

In MB4 what I use is

Code:

if ((e.KeyCode == Keys.S && e.Control) || e.KeyCode == Keys.MediaStop)

and the problem is that I don't see either of these in the log snippet above - in fact, I don't see any keystroke which would cause the PLAYBACK_AUDIO_STOPPING_VIA_REQUESTED_STOP event. So what did you do to stop the playlist?

I hit the multimedia Stop key with SSPlus running, so MB4 doesn't do anything to stop the playlist. Instead it responds to Notify and ensures the view is okay when SSPlus deactivates.

OK - in that case, I'll modify my Notify handling to compensate for not seeing a MediaStop keystroke.

It's odd that you don't see MediaStop on the OnKeyEvent() my other plugins see it too. In any case, I can't duplicate this now since SSPlus jumps to the top left every time I hit stop.

It is odd - especially as I see MediaNextTrack and MediaPreviousTrack...
