Queued song is not removed.

I don't understand why winamp hasn't resolved this bug. its been there for so many time.

When I want to listen the next enqueued song, I click the "Next Track" button, the song is played and removed from the queue.

BUT when i press the 'b' key instead of pressing the "Next Track" button, the song is played but not removed from the queue. In other words, the song is only removed from the queue when you press the "Next Track" button but not when you press the 'B' key.

This has been there for so long and it has not been corrected.

because i just don't have the time to do it when i'm working every hour under the sun for 'real' work rather than for some media player which causes me more grief than it's worth. it'll be fixed when i've a) the time and b) the inclination to work on anything to do with Winamp.

Well, as a suggestion try this for future programming:

void NextTrackButtonPressed(object sender, blah blah)
{
PlayNextEnquededSong();
}

void KeyPressed(object sender, etc etc)
{
if(keypressed=='b' OR keypressed=='B')
PlayNextEnquededSong();
}

void PlayNextEnquededSong()
{
PlaySong();
RemoveSongFromQueue();

}

So that in future times, you dont have to be reprogramming every button

I know this has nothing to do with the actual winamp code but i wrote it just to help get the idea.

Regards

that was how the code was working but since the 'b' part no longer works it involves reworking how the 'next' action is detected and that is why it's partially working (depending on the window that is being used at the time) seeing as one of the devs decided to deprecate an api with no notice to 3rd parties (despite it being an age-old way of detecting certain actions). maybe i'll find the motivation to fix it this side of the new year though as i'm no longer currently using winamp that's a slim chance.

after my main machine died on me almost 2 months ago, i've only had the time to get a new OS installed and slap vlc on it for dvd playback for the girlfriend otherwise i've not had the time or real reason to install anything else (no point when i'm not using the machine). with the hours i'm having to do for my job, i just don't have the energy or time to deal with coding so i'm aware of a long list of issues with the plugins i've made but i just don't have it in me to work on fixing them hence why i just cannot say when (or possibly if) they'll get updates like with jtfe, etc. plus any freetime i have, i'd rather spend it with the gf rather than staring at a screen plus i've barely done anything winamp related for a year now so it's not like anything different is really happening
