Assuming there are no bugs to be fixed in the current version, the next major revision (1.6) will hopefully feature a redesigned GUI, and will automatically switch people over from PLAY_DATE and PLAY_TIME to LAST_PLAYED.  Any other feature requests are welcome.

As in custom time stamps?

This might be added to 1.6, or I might remove the ability to do custom time stamps all together.  Be forwarned that using custom time stamps will make your settings incompatible with any public columns_ui FCS.

If you want your date to be displayed somewhere like that, you can use
Code: [Select]
$if(%first_played%,$substr(%first_played%,6,7)/$substr(%first_played%,9,10)/$substr(%first_played%,1,4),Never Played)


Edit: Fixed stupid errors in my code, should work now.

no, you're right. now that i think about it, it would make everything much easier if there is only one standard.

I have to go to work now for a while.  When I return (about 5 hours from time of posting), I will begin working on 1.6.  Depending on the complexities faced, it may be released in the next 24 hours, or it may take a few days.  As I said before, any feature requests or suggestions are seriously considered and welcome.

Is it possible to add a field to the status bar which shows the sum of the playcounts of all marked tracks?

I don't think so.  At least, I don't know how to do it.  I'll look into it.

Any option to disable the new tag?

I only use the play counter, which I love.

Should I stick with the old one?

I've already implemented an option to disable any/all the tags, which will be available in version 1.6 (hopefully to be released very shortly - within an hour or two).

foo_playcount 1.6 (Source & Binary Included)

Version 1.6 (May 14 2005)

1) UI update.

2) Removed ability to have custom timestamping formats.  Everybody now uses LAST_PLAYED and FIRST_PLAYED standards.  Eg. 2005-11-24 16:59:32.  You can use TAGZ to display the information in any order you wish.

3) Removed a lot of code that was no longer neccessary due to the removal of custom timestamping.

4) Cleaned up some code here and there.

5) Made it possible to not write any/all of the tags.

Now that 1.6 is done, I'm open to suggestions for new features as I have no new plans for the next version (other then looking into the status bar option).

1.6.1 will be released shortly changing "LAST_PLAYED" and "FIRST_PLAYED" to "LAST PLAYED" and "FIRST PLAYED" as that is the accepted standard. See here.

foo_playcount 1.6.1 (Source & Binary Included)

1) Minor UI Changes

2) Fixed stupid error.  Changed "LAST_PLAYED" and "FIRST_PLAYED" to "LAST PLAYED" and "FIRST PLAYED". This is the encouraged standard.  See the Encouraged tag standards here.

Four releases in one day may seem a little excessive.  However, this should be the last release for a while (assuming there are no other bugs).

Not according to the wiki.  I don't care, I now preclaim it to be without underscores, but spaces instead.  I argued that it shouldn't use underscores.  Obviously someone changed the wiki so that it didn't use underscores, which confuses the matter.  Because ALBUM ARTIST doesn't use underscores, and the wiki says so, I'm going to leave it as spaces.

I think so too, I always use _ in my tags :S
Much easier if all use that, less confusing.

Well I'm not releasing two versions, so until Lyx gets back from his weekend trip, nothing is going to change, spaces will remain.

Whatever you do, please keep it consistent.

Either Album Artist, First Played, Last Played, and Play Counter
or Album_Artist, First_Played, Last_Played, and Play_Counter.

As you're probably not going to reach a consensus on this topic,
I would still advocate the ability to define your own field names.

Let people decide if they want to break standards, don't enforce them.

I was about to change PLAY_COUNTER to PLAY COUNTER.

If people want to define there own field names, they can take the source and change it.  For the sake of simplicity, my version is going enforce standards.

To enable Lyx's Navigator columns_ui FCS to use LAST PLAYED instead of LAST_PLAYED, overwrite the code in the last played column with the below:
Code: [Select]
// DO NOT change anything here !
// for configuration, see the "Globals"-tab !
// ============================================

// last played
$if(%last played%,
%_standard_color%
$ifgreater(%_days_since_play%,30,$left(%last played%,10),
$ifgreater(%_days_since_play%,1,%_days_since_play%days ago,
$ifgreater(%_days_since_play%,0,yesterday,
%_special_color%' - today - '
)))
$char(9)%_standard_color_low%$substr(%last played%,12,16)
)

we had a standard, now you want to enforce a new one, i don't think that's a good way
..for the sake of simplicity you could have kept things like they were before
why do you want to change things?
the wiki was change by Canar on 8th may, i don't know why he did that
