Description Barry Gordon 2007-11-22 01:13:24 UTC
Not sure how to ask for a new feature request, but I am sure someone will "Gently" advise me and I will correct my behavior

In RandomPlay The following features would be greatly appreciated

1) The ability to set/query the numtracks parameter
     <playerID> randomplay numtracks n|?

2) The ability to set/query the numOldTracks parameter
     <playerID> randomplay numoldtracks n|?

3) The ability to set/query the continuousAdd parameter
     <playerID> randomplay continuousadd 0|1|?

4) The ability use genre_ID in lieu of Genre name when setting and cleaing the active Genre's

Can't you modify these using the pref command?
Comment 2 Barry Gordon 2007-11-22 01:44:59 UTC
Thanks for that pointer.  I will try that and I suspect you are correct.  Thank you.  If it works I will pull the request

However How do I get to, for example, the specific ExcludeGenre's in random play. I think I get back a hash and then I am stumped. I guess the only way to do that is using the genre commands provided under randomplay

Michael,

pref worked for continuous, newtracks and oldtracks.  What surprised me was that it wasn't playerpref.  That is, I would have expected that the randomplay parameters would have been by player. I tried playerpref and it did not work. Is that a bug or by intent?

Michael didn't see Barry's comment.  Is this a bug?

Comment 5 Michael Herger 2007-12-27 15:19:54 UTC
No, that's imho by design. As far as I can remember these prefs have always been server wide. And they still are in 6.5.
