emmanuel 0 Posted September 23, 2004 Share Posted September 23, 2004 Nifty, auto-select first song in list? I takes up 8 megs of memory when winamp takes 2... Cool for it's portability though.

Helge 3 Posted September 23, 2004 Author Share Posted September 23, 2004 (edited) Instead of using the email-function which I can't get working now, a have copied my personal guestbook, and created a new guestbook for AutoIt-related stuff..

Lazycat 13 Posted September 23, 2004 Share Posted September 23, 2004 I'm aware of the memory-usage problem..However I haven't been able to locate the reason..It just because Autoit's SoundPlay() use standard windows decoder (mediaplayer controls). If you look in the advanced task manager how many dlls loading while playing you will be wonder Winamp using it's own decoder, so memory load is much less.But from other side this is not bad - I suspect that your player will play any other mediafile for which exists DirectShow decoder.And two small suggestions: will be nice if player will remember last folder and Drag'n'Drop support.

Helge 3 Posted September 23, 2004 Author Share Posted September 23, 2004 (edited) @Lazycat :Last folder should be pretty easy, but it migh break with the default playlist thing.One way of doing it is if there is no default playlist set, it will use the last folder.I don't know...please post suggestions.I haven't tried adding drag'n'drop-support to controls in any tests, but I will look at it.I have added it to my TODO-list though...Anyway, as I said before i'm soon starting in the army, so if it there are anymoreposts here after the next five days, they will not be replied by me...At least not before next year A smart thing to do then is to post at this link Edited January 18, 2007 by Helge Link to post Share on other sites
emmanuel 0 Posted September 23, 2004 Share Posted September 23, 2004 Do you mean that when you press "Play" it should auto-select the first song in the list ?

Helge 3 Posted September 23, 2004 Author Share Posted September 23, 2004 if no song is selected, it should play the first song, how's that?Ok ! That can be done...An update will be probably be out tomorrow. Link to post Share on other sites
Josbe 1 Posted September 23, 2004 Share Posted September 23, 2004 hehe...Sorry.(if it were interpreted thus)I said because, we don't have a script, in it's place we have a player! Good job.Now, you can add new GUI features, like a Tray icon for example... I'll suggest that, (in Autoplay) the next song starting to play, it's displayed selected too.

Helge 3 Posted September 24, 2004 Author Share Posted September 24, 2004 (edited) I'll suggest that, (in Autoplay) the next song starting to play, it's displayed selected too.I think that could be done with one of the commands in the Control-family,however I think it wouldn't work if the song changes while in a game...Not a big problem though..Anyway, I've uploaded a tiny-updated version with emmanuel requested :If no song is selected, it should play the first song, how's that?Available here...

Mickey 0 Posted October 4, 2004 Share Posted October 4, 2004 (edited) Realy good , Maybe if you can let it run less then 2 mb memory i can use it instead of foobar 2000 Thing that can be added in 1.8.2 ( or 3 ): - New Icon - Drag en Drop function - A Progress bar so you can forward/backward a song. - Less memory use If you do that youre the king PS: Can i see the script i want to know how youve done this Edited October 4, 2004 by Mickey Link to post Share on other sites
Helge 3 Posted October 4, 2004 Author Share Posted October 4, 2004 - New Icon - Drag en Drop function- A Progress bar so you can forward/backward a song.- Less memory useNew IconThis can be done..im not good with design and such,but actually this whole project was rushed, and I didn`t gotmuch time for anything..Anyway...if anyone want to design a new icon they can upload it(to their own web-accound) and post it either here or at the link inmy signature (preferred).Drag N DropI`ve tried adding this, but it seems that the list-control (that is used in theplaylist) doesn`t support D&D.Then I have to use a label- or edit-control...I think.And that would make the playlist useless.....I think.Progress BarThis is, as far as I know, impossible with AutoIt.It doesn`t support anything like this.Less memory useIf Lazycat is correct, then the SoundPlay-function that BasicPlayer use,is using standard windows decoder..So, to lower the memory use it would probably require a third-party program... Which I don`t want!ALSO, IF ANYONE WANT TO, IT`S POSSIBLE TO E-MAIL ME A TRANSLATIONFOR BASICPLAYER. IF ANY HELP IS NEEDED, JUST ASK ME! Link to post Share on other sites
Mickey 0 Posted October 4, 2004 Share Posted October 4, 2004 (edited) Iam using it as my default MP3 player now it boots faster then Foobar 2000 Edited October 4, 2004 by Mickey Link to post Share on other sites
Helge 3 Posted October 4, 2004 Author Share Posted October 4, 2004 PS: Can i see the script i want to know how youve done this Sorry, I forgot about that..At the moment that`s pretty much impossible, because right now I`m in the army.Also the code is pretty messy, and I have to clean up the code before making it publicWhich probably will take a while since it`s over 1200 lines..Also, I forgot to say if someone want to send me a icon or a translation thenit would be smart to do it before Saturday since I`m only home from Friday to Sunday,or else a new release with the changes wouldn`t be available before in many weeks...Happy scripting, and stay away from the goat !
