kJams 2.0 iTunes Fader....

Is it possible to request that a new track get played each time between singers?

Thanks!

you could do that yourself, in your own script! that's the awesome-sauce of scripting: DIY

Um, it already does that!

editor: he means "it has that capability, you just have to turn it on"

Mine plays one entire song through...in 30-90 second intervals between singers...

open the "itunes_auto_crossfade.py" script (hold option while picking it)
now do "save as"
save it into the python folder in your kjams folder, name it with something you'll recognize

find this line:

# if you do NOT want iTunes to pick up where it left off, un-comment the following line
# itunes.next()

remove the hashtag from the second line
save again
now use THAT script instead of the built-in one

thank u sir.

Oh, I thought we were talking about the AppleScript, because mine DOES already do that!

[TLB]

I was going to start a new thread for my question but it relates closely with what is being discussed here, so here it goes:

I recently upgraded to kjams 2.0, and i'm utilizing itunes_auto_fader.py. The problem i'm running in to is that after running the script everything works a expected, except that while kjams is paused, the singer and audience televisions display the "Volume: 0%". This is blocking my web address at the bottom of my showscreens and the singer really has no need to see the current volume setting. is there a line of code that will disable this?

By the way thanks to Dave and everyone that has contributed to this awesome software!

Thanks,

No need for code. Just go to kJams Preferences>General>Show Messenger messages in Video Window and turn it off.

what he said is probably the easiest thing. tho it does make sense for the script to just NOT show the volume message
