General Discussion / Re: Auto Video Fullscreen

Thank you,
i guess i still like some of your vintage stuff
I managed to build a workaround with Jon00 plugin but would be nice to have it embedded in the WACUP core. Will keep an eye on the next releases.

General Discussion / Auto Video Fullscreen

« on: May 10, 2020, 10:39:28 PM »

Hi Darren, "Auto Video Fullscreen" plugin freezes WACUP whenever a video is started;
Everything, inluding videos, works perfectly when the plugin is disabled.
Since it is an important feature, would you mind checking if you can reproduce on your end and/or fix it?
I only use it to ensure videos are opened full screen and optionally close Milkdrop. If integrating these features to the existing Video preferences menu is simpler I wouldn't mind using it this way either.

Just for reference, I am using Directshow for all video formats + LAV decoder/audio/video encoders (Klite codec pack).

Thanks

Thanks Darren. Really appreciate it;

Hopefully, Jon's work on the Homeseer plugin will contribute to WACUP project's visibility.

Lots of people love the WACUP interface but also need a way to interface with it in home automation environments;  including access to all the great features like JTFE

Will continue Beta testing and keep you updated once your next build is out.

Cheers,

Thanks for the feedback Darren,

In order to limit the impact on performance, would there be a way to replicate the queue in gen_jumpex.m3u8 and only update when there is a change to the queue?
The rest could be done easily for the plugin, as it would be similar to the playlist file which is monitored for file changes.
Could be set as a config option (enabled/disabled) if performance could still be affected.

Let us know what you think,
hope this could be a reasonable solution.

Thx for your help!

General Discussion / What's Playing plugin

« on: April 29, 2020, 06:32:13 PM »

Hi Darren, for some reason, the What's Playing V2.2. plugin doesn't seem to work anymore on WACUP (works on 5.666);  https://winampheritage.com/plugin/whats-playing-v2-dot-2/141842
The plugin is used to feed basic data (Artist, Title etc) to the Homeseer3 Winamp plugin developped by Jon00 ( see previous thread on JTFE & line commands)
Any way to restore compatibility or workarounds?

Thanks for your continued support,

Thanks for the feedback, let me know if you make any progress with JTFE in the next build, I'll be glad to do some testing.

Hi Darren, hope all is well;

Until some sort of command line is implemented for JTFE, is there any way to "extract" the JTFE/queue manager playlist so it can be pulled every x seconds and shown in a third party app ?

Also wondering if WMuser commands (or any other shortcut) allows to close / open the video and visualization windows (not toggle commands)
Since it doesn't return status, the toggle commands can't be used to just close or just open a window.
you essentially don't know if the toggle command will close or open the window....

If there is any list of "unpublished" commands, I'd really like to see it =)
I have attached a list of what I could find so far. If  I am missing any commands let me know where to find the rest or send it over my way.

Thanks

Thanks Darren, that would be great;

I am in touch with the developer of Homeseer's Winamp plugin (JonO)
https://forums.homeseer.com/forum/3rd-party-developer-area/general-developer-discussion/jon00/94458-jon00-winamp-controller-for-homeseer-3-and-homeseer-4
He did a great job implementing the plugin but it still misses JTFE interaction;

Same goes for the Android app: Ampwifi (Michael Veroukis)
He is still active and looking for alternatives to Ajaxamp to better interact with Winamp

I will stay tuned so we can hopefully add JTFE support via new command-line support.

Keep us posted, cheers

What I mean is that there is no way to add "new" (not already in the playlist) items directly to the JTFE queue from explorer, the command line, Ajaxamp or the MediaLibrary
You have to add/queue items to the playlist, go back to the playlist, find the item at the bottom of the list and press "Q"

The use case:

- a playlist is currently playing on random, let's say my "Rock songs" folder
- someone asks for two songs contained within my "Christmas songs" folder;
- I will add them via JTFE and once these two songs have played, the "Rock" playlist will simply resume.

Now, since winamp doesn't provide any direct remote interface, I had to figure out a simple way to interact with Android devices.
Most Winamp features are available via simple WMcommands, the Homeseer plug-in or Ampwifi (Android app) which are all great workaround I've been using successfully.
however, there doesn't seem to be a simple way to access JTFE features.
Therefore I had to build a complicated macro routine to automate the actions and keystrokes required to do it; and I still don't have a way to view or edit the actual JTFE queue....

So unless an Android remote interface is in the works (fingers crossed), I'm looking for a simple way to queue items in JTFE and access/manipulate the queue so that I can do this via any of the above mentioned mediums.

Thanks for your help!

1) both of these "queue" features add the file to the "playlist editor" you then have to manually go in the playlist editor and press Q....
What I'm looking for is to "JTFE queue" the file directly from the library (same as pressing "Q" in playlist editor), or even better, straight from windows explorer context menu or winamp's command line.

2) and 3) fingers crossed for progress on these two as I had to build complex macros to achieve very simple tasks....

Really love JTFE but really need a way to access it easily from my Android devices and/or automate it via simple commands. (Homeseer)

Thanks again for all your support,
Cheers!

General Discussion / Queuing with JTFE from media library

« on: January 20, 2020, 04:43:06 PM »

Hi DrO,

1st question : is there a way to "queue" to JTFE directly from the media library or via a command line?

What I'm trying to accomplish here is to "queue" a song that is contained within my file structure but not present in the current playlist.
Since I'm calling this from an external program (home automation - Homeseer), it has to be as simple as possible.

My current workaround, is to "add to playlist", monitor the number of entries in the playlist and once it detects a new entry, it emulates keystrokes ("End" then a bunch of "down") so the focus is on the last line of the playlist and press "Q"; not the most elegant way to do it, but it's the only way I found so far.

The current behavior in the media library:

"Enqueue"=add to playlist
"Send to" / "add to queue" = add to playlist

would essentially need something like "add to JTFE" instead; or a way to do it via a command line call.

2- Can you confirm where JTFE stores its queue list so we could potentially access it from Homeseer for external display purposes?
(found gen_jumpex.m3u8 in the C:\Users\Admin\AppData\Roaming\Winamp folder but seems empty)

3- Are there WMcommands or other ways to interact with JTFE externally? (queue to JTFE, access the Queue, move entries up/down, etc)

Thanks for your help!
