foo_scheduler plugin

Hello! Ths is my first plugin for foobar2000, expect more to come!

I want to announce foo_scheduler plugin for scheduling actions (like play, stop,
system shutdown) at selected time.

Because the foo_timer plugin by Radoslaw "AstralStrom" Szkodzinski is no longer developed, and I needed some more features and flexibility I have written the foo_scheduler plugin.

Main differences from foo_timer:
- support for standby / hibernating
- choosing shutdown type
- creating multiple user-defined presets to once and then endable / disable them
- you can run multiple timers at time

You can download it from foo_scheduler.zip and source code from foo_scheduler-source.zip

Update:
Now the plugin has UI extension support.
Full list of changes is available in the zip file with plugin.

I have no clue how to solve it and what can be the reason for such a behavior.
Maybe someobe with more experience in foobar developmnet could help...

EDIT:
I'm using foobar 0.8beta10 with beta9 SDK, maybe it will be fixed after upgrade...

Can it shutdown when certain tasks like replaygaining or converting files finnish?

I thought about it, but it's rather not possible. There is no easy way to get inforation about finished replaygaining or caonverting, or to launch a function when they are finished.

@hercup, @diablo:
I have just compiled the plugin for 0.8 final, and made some internal changes which may (or may not) affect the problem. Please, try it out.

No, it doesnt work . Btw my friend tried this plugin, who is running WinXP, and he said it works fine, so maybe it's because of Windows 2000 ?

Wow, development is moving fast. Very handy plug-in indeed.
Thanks for your hard work and keep it up (but don't forget to get some sleep) :]

playlist scheduling is a step in the right direction, but how about tying your plugin into the foo_shuffle plugin? that way, we could run foobar in "shuffle tag set" mode, and at specified times foo_scheduler would change the "tag set"? that would be so incredibly cool .

this is good, thanks

one small request when you will run out of ideas: insert an action that will 'create playlist' based on a filter string (i.e. 'create playlist, genre='blabla'&artist='bla,bla')
