Song Information Panel v2.0 (2009-09-19) [MM3]

[DreadM]

Greetings

Nice Script , I like it and use it,
from time to time i try also to create a Trackinfo panel,but don't understand realy this script stuff.

So thanks for this script!

Do you think it possible to implant a on/off icon function for the toolbar,this would be nice,
maybe like this ones:



btw:
maybe its better to have a seperat skin folder (like it is now) so we can make different Layouts if we want,

I get the following error when installing but it does install. Not to nitpick but that icon looks ALOT like the MR icon, can you add a little more color to it?

Thanks Nyn. Forgot to add the new language file to the mmip.

New file to download!

It is the same file as in the first post. I updated that link too.

For the icon I used the icon DreadM showed three posts up and it dosen't look anything like my MR icons.

I do not know which ones I have but here they are side by side, it would be very easy to hit the wrong one. It's not a critical issue but...

I was using an old version of MR. I see what you mean. I'll see what I can do.

Cool! Playlists. And auto-playlists too! Fantastic.

Unfortunately auto-playlists is too slow for me. Taking 13-17 seconds for each track. When MM is playing, it creates a 15 sec gap between song. It makes me wish the panel to have a button to put that thing On/Off. (Hint)

But playlists is a great addition. Great work! Thanks k_r.

I am having one minor problem with playlists, for some reason some tracks do not have their playlists listed alphabetically. I do not know why this does this on some but not others but.... Also, if at all possible this would be really cool if the user could switch between the now playing track and a selected track.

What do you mean with the button? Should it turn showing auto-playlists on/off? I don't think that is a good solution. You can turn it off in the settings. I think I will make Auto-playlists only work when you are getting info on a selceted track and not on the track now playing.

@nynaevelan
Thanks to onenonymous it will be a button so you can switch between the now playing track and a selected track.
The list isn't listed alphabetically because I haven't sorted it alphabetically. Will do in the next release.

You're right.

I think I will make Auto-playlists only work when you are getting info on a selceted track and not on the track now playing.

I don't think it's a good idea neither, because it can confuse us by thinking the track is not part of any auto-playlist.

Thanks.

Great!

I have another request . I like my SIP docked between three and the album art , having only 3 lines displayed in top panel, thus trying to keep it as small as possible (without having that scrollbar).



SIP v1.4 adds 2 lines of text for the "Information comes from" text. Is it possible to make it display on only 1 line?

• Information comes from: Selected track [Change View]

It would be even better if it could display a toggle link:

• Information comes from: [Selected track]

Thanks to consider.

:~)
