foo_run 0.3.7

Reply #150 –
I try to open VLC which works okay.
But I don't understand how I can open a specific playlist.

In Windows I can run from command line:
"C:\Programme\VideoLAN\VLC\vlc.exe open "C:\Dokumente und Einstellungen\User\Desktop\..... .m3u"

And the playlist is played.

But if I add it as a command in run services vlc open but then the playlist don't open.
Does someknows where the problem is?

Message in Window is:
Quote
main error: no suitable access module for `C:\Dokumente und Einstellungen\User\Desktop\.....
%Playlist name% but a part it missing and extension.'

Now I got it to work.When I rename the filename so that its shorter.

The playlist name is very long. Has run_services a limitation of letters?

I wanted to have all my Video Files in Foobar and then open them with mplayer.

There's one problem: when I click for example right on a File named Finntroll 4.06min 10,3MB.rm I got the context menu. I see run services and the arrow but the arrow but the right context menu doesn't open 

Can someone tell my why this is that way?

i had this aswell. Dont think it works when foobar is stopped?

if it happens when its playing its prob cause foobar doesnt handle the file type. Try going to 'file info' see if the path is empty

^^ only guessing i too want to resolve this

But this is really wierd because other context menu from foobar is working  The convert option for example which makes no sense
So I think this is a plug-in problem...
How can I see file info or did you mean properties?

i meant right click and go to file info - if you have it installed.  Off memory i was doing what you were with videos and it worked perfectly on for example mp4's but when i tried a codec that foobar didnt recognise there was no right click

I cant modify the existing services. Either im just dumb or something is wrong. First, add and modify buttons don't do anything. And when I try to modify an existing service, it is reset as soon as I push the save all button. Can anyone explain to me what I am doing wrong. Thanx

I found this a little confusing at first myself. To modify an existing service:

1) File> Preferences> Tools> Run Services
2) Highlight the service you would like to modify in the "Service" box toward the top, this will populate the "Service Properties" box toward the bottom with the current settings of that run service
3) Modify the desired attributes for the service in the appropriate fields toward the bottom
4) With the service still highlighted in the "Service" box toward the top, click on the "Modify" button.

NOTE: You click the Add, Modify, or Remove buttons AFTER you have inputted the data in the "Service Properties" fields, NOT BEFORE.

I'm trying to use the command line "playlist-activate playlistname" to switch to a certain playlist but it seems to work only if I trigger it (with a keyboard shortcut) when the active playlist is the one where the now playing track is. If I change the active playlist to another one, the Run preset doesn't work.

?

Can somebody tell me if it is possible to programm the plugin so that it will work with such files as .rm or other unsupported files?
As far as I could understand the source code the problem is that the filepath is taken from properties and there isn't shown  properties when using unsupported filetypes.... so there won't be a context menu

Thank you Florian for the updated version (0.3.2).

Would it be possible, in a next version to:
-add the possibility in the run service preferences panel to reorder (move up, move down) the services (for the moment I export, modify the order in the xml created, then import it...)
-add the possibiity to mark "show or hide" in the context menu (directly in run service preferences panel or in the context menu preference with "remove item"/"insert item")

This because, i'm using a lot of scripts or run services to manage my general display or sizes of the foobar window using autohotkey or simply using foobar /command:"blah", and mapping them to trackinfo $button2 or foobar hotkeys.

By the way, I want to thank you a lot for having ported this plugin for foobar 0.9. 
Trackinfo $button2 doesn't work if we want to cycle a tabbed panel, because of the "#" in "Panel #2 Cycle Forward", but using run service we now can make a new service called "Cycle Panel 2" mapping to :
"C:\Program Files\foobar2000\foobar2000.exe" /command:"Panel #2 Cycle Forward" and make a trackinfo $button2 mapping to this service like in this way:
$button2(x,y,,,xx,yy,,'$font(font,size,option,color)CYCLE 2',Cycle Panel 2,)

The best would be custom menu with ability to create sub menus. AFAIR Florian wrote that its impossible/dont know how to do it, well foo_custominfo has it. And its source is aviable

foo_custominfo

Florian, can you do it?

Can anyone else get this to work in Vista? I just upgraded to Vista from XP, using the exact same settings, and foo_run is giving me nothing. When I click on any item in the 'Run' context menu, nothing happens...

Same here. I have mine set up to open links in a web browser. It doesn't work in Vista.

When I experimented around with foo_run under vista I discovered that vista does not allow you to execute URLs under normal user access. So instead you need to change your foo_run command from "http://www.whatever.ip" to "firefox http://www.whatever.ip".

I am thoroughly disgusted with vista and have migrated happily back to XP and 2k3.

Hmm, still did not work for me. Just to be sure I did it correctly, in the path box I put "C:\Program Files (x86)\Mozilla Firefox\firefox.exe http://www.website.com"

I think foo_run does not like the "(x86)" in the path name... Try changing firefox installation directory to common program files, it worked for me.

alternatively you can use $char(40)x86$char(41) instead of (x86) but eejadx is correct, foo_run processes the parenthesis as code.

i have one question. is it available to run some exe file with parameter which will be taken from some tag field of selected audio file?

filename.exe %field%

replace ^ filename with your filename put the name of the tag where it says field.

It may need to be "%field%"

That should be correct. I'm not using tags, but I'm calling a Python script with "%title%" or "%path%", and it works as it should. My syntax is:

"C:\Programme\foobar2000\Scripts.py" "%path%" "delete_set"
