songtickers

Link to discussion thread

Copy and paste the desired songticker into Text Display or any other field that supports title formatting and has access to the playing track's information.

In all of the songtickers
  • Use a monospaced font for best results. (e.g. Lucida Console or Courier New)
  • Set the "text" variable to whatever string you want to display. {default: [%artist% - ]%title%}
  • Set the "dispLen" variable to the maximum number of characters your display field can fit (more or less if you prefer). {default: 26}


songticker classic 1.0
  • Text scrolls continuously to the left, looping forever.
  • The "textAndPad" variable sets the characters that separate one loop iteration from the next. Feel free to change them. {default: " *** "}
  • The "scrollSpeed" variable changes the scrolling rate. {default: 1}


songticker modern 1.0
  • Text bounces back and forth between the beginning and end of the string.
  • Text pauses at the beginning and end of the string before reversing scroll direction.

songticker modern-noPause 1.0
  • Text bounces back and forth between the beginning and end of the string.
  • Text does not pause at the beginning or end of the string.
