req: new playback orders + update to foo_pl_hopper

could anyone (other than me - for ssamadhi97 ) implement these new playback orders?

- repeat album - next track is the following track in playlist if and only if %album% doesn't change. otherwise it's the track above the playing one which follows a track with different %album% tag (first such a track going from the playing one up to the first one). of course you have to handle cases when there's no such a track (only one album in playlist, album at the start / end of playlist etc.)

- repeat directory - same as previous, using path instead. useful for multiple-cds-release-in-a-dir, for files with incorrect tags etc.

- repeat selection - that one would go over selected tracks. contrary to the previous two, tracks doesn't have to follow each other. [span style='font-size:8pt;line-height:100%']i have script that can expand selection to whole albums, so i can basically select track from album a, track from album b, hit shift+a to select all tracks from albums a and b and then use 'repeat selection' on them.[/span]

and i have even request for new version of good old foo_pl_hopper.dll plugin:

- make it work without 'follow cursor' and over playing playlist, not the visible / active one

I'm working on a plugin that is ment to be a general purpose "jump to" plugin. It's called foo_navigator, but it's currently at the prealpha stage.

Current status:
-You can define your own formatting to be used when jumping.
-Active formatting is selected in a drop down list.
-Does not depend on "follow cursor".
-Can be used either as a panel or as a window.
-You can either do a "play jump" or a "focus jump".
-Most importantly, it doesn't really work the way it should.

Planned:
-Add context menu commands that can be bound to shortcut keys.
-Support for jumping in playing playlist, not only the visible one.
-Some other stuff...

At the moment is looks like this:


If you want anything soon, it might be better to ask paulski if he can update foo_pl_hopper, or release the source (if he hasn't done that already).

Edit: Spelling/adding missing character

I'm sure that someone could do that. How about you for example?

ah, i would have not asked in that case . i haven't been programming in c++ in ages, plus i'm not really familiar with win32 / foobar sdks. for 'regular' plugin developer, this could be a breeze though ...

upNorth: that's great, i'm *shocked* in a good way to learn that you're coding your own plugin, thumbs up! maybe i should follow your example . anyway, it seems like it could do what i wanted. please keep me (us) updated ...

upNorth, any news on your plugin? as i'm slowly trying 0.9, i really miss playlist hopper plugin ... and i guess your plugin would be better replacement.

I would also like Shuffle (inside an album) mode.
