Just enclose the characters with a (') symbol without the brackets.

e.g. '"'song name as a string'"'

Could anyone tell me if it is possible to do either of the following?

1)  I'm trying to find a way of loading a bookmark in firefox through run services that would use the %artist% information to load either the title or tag of a bookmark.  This way I can set up bookmarks in firefox with the urls of artist's official sites or whatever and load them from both the address bar in firefox and, more relevantly, from foobar.  I'm not sure if this is remotely possible but it would be useful.  If it's not then that leads me to...

2)  How can I include spaces in the path of the Service Properties?  I found that a way around the above is to create a folder with the links to sites as shortcuts (*.url files) each with the name of the artist.  If I use
Code: [Select]
c:\musiclinks\$replace(%artist%, ,+).url
I can access the files as long as they have a "+" character instead of space but I'd rather be able to just have spaces. e.g if I click on the run service whilst listening to David Bowie I'd like it to load "David Bowie.url" but at the moment I can only get it to load if the file is titled "David+Bowie.url"  Yes the whole thing sounds rather pointless or lazy but I guess I'm just genuinely interested in whether or not it's possible at this point.

1) No idea

2) I did some testing and couldn't get the command to even work for artists with one-word names.  After some more testing, I think the problem has something to do with the fact that you're trying to open shortcuts instead of actual files.  Just a guess.

That's surprising. One-word artist names seem to work for me without a problem using the "linksdirectory\$replace(%artist%, ,+).url" code I put above.  That code also works for multi-word names if I replace spaces with "+" in the title of .url file.  I've tested it with a few one word artists and I've not had anything go wrong yet.  I'm not sure why it wouldn't be working for you.

I'm not sure why either, but it seems that I can't even get it to open one with a direct path like c:\links\artist.url

enclose the path in "quotes" if there are empty spaces

Thanks!  That works great.

I've just released foo_run 0.3.7 which fixes another potential error. You can get it from the first post of this topic.

0.3.6: 162KB
0.3.7: 360KB

Is this difference in size intended (due to compiling-settings)?

Yes, I've changed the PDB settings with this version to get more useful information out of crashlogs submitted by foobar2000.

Link for download doesn't work. Links to foo_run 0.3.6 on mp3tag site.
When clicking on it, it sends you to the download page for mp3tag instead of the foo_run zip file.

I´m running Vista 64 bit and I can´t get foo_run to execute 32 bit programs like album art downloader.

I set the path to:

"Program Files (x86)\AlbumArtDownloader\AlbumArt.exe" with and without arguments, nothing works...

not even the "..." chose program option...

also tried with other applications.

---------
jfi with XP, Vista 32bit everything´s fine... so how do I have to set the path in Vista 64 bit?

IIRC, you have to 'quote' the parenthesis : "Program Files '('x86')'\AlbumArtDownloader\AlbumArt.exe".

Feature Request:

Allow the selection of a grouping scope for individual services. For example, when dealing with a service involving album art, a 'per album' scope would make sense. When dealing with a service involving waveform analysis, a 'per track' scope would be correct. An enhancement like this would make the 'simultaneous runs' feature a lot more useful.

foo_run really is one of those components that really simplify the use of foobar for me. There's just that one thing, that I'd need it to do. I know that it's probably out of scope for this component, but I'll request it anyway. I'd love to see an option to have a run command executed on specific events. Well, actually I'd only need execution on song change.
Any chance to see this functionality implemented in your component?

Bug (?):

First thank you Florian for your nice plugin. I like it very well and I think it is very powerful. But I think I have found a bug or something.

In: File>Preferences>Display>Columns UI>Context Menu ;
then right-click on [ROOT]>Insert item>Command... ;
then a window called "Select command" opens ;
but in this windows you can only select 1 command: "Run service", which is only the context menu item that opens a sub menu with all the actual "services" (like searching google, etc).

As a result you cannot directly add a service to the context menu in the Columns UI interface.
On the other hand, it is possible to directly add a "service" when you want to create a new button or when you want to create a new keyboard shortcut.
I don't know if that can help you improving your great plugin

Best regards,

Opawesome

It's the same with the Default UI and AFAIK this is a limitation of dynamic context menus.

Thanks for your feedback! Glad you like it

Hi everybody...

anyone an idea how to built a commandline for the run service, which shows the actual played artist in amazon.de or amazon.com? I cannot figured that out.

I would love to do this...
btw. I use Foonight and this would perfectly fit into it!

thanks in advance...

for amazon.de I just tried:

Code: [Select]
http://www.amazon.de/s/ref=nb_ss_m?__mk_de_DE='%'C5M'%'C5Z'%'D5'%'D1&url=search-alias'%'3Dpopular&field-keywords=$replace(%artist%, ,+)&x=0&y=0


which works. Maybe the '%' character was the problem, you have to set it between (') to be interpreted correctly

Do you have any idea, why the defined run services does not show up in the "Click action" of foo_graphicalbrowser component? It just lists "Run service" and nothing else.
Can't wait for a HD-AAC encoder :P
