How soon will be able to post our own reviews of the plug-in? Does the Winamp staff have to review it first?

DrO · 17th February 2004, 20:11

well the language pack i did took a bit under a day to go through, though they quote up to a few days

will have to wait and see i guess

-daz

Electron2002 · 18th March 2004, 02:57

I jsut checked the plugins lists and it seems the plugin still isn't up? What's the story Dr.O?

john_is_war · 18th March 2004, 03:10

What do you mean? The link in his sig, AND his site both have it just fine...

Electron2002 · 18th March 2004, 04:10

I realize that, I was just questioning it for the wellbeing of the plugin itself. If it isn't in Winamps database of plugins, then almost no one will ever know it exists. I certainly know where to get it since the final edition of the plugin was named after me (Electron Edition). My concern is for people that don't already know.

Time Restore & Autoplay v1.72

fixed a bug where it would not restore correctly if doing a restart of winamp due to IPC_RESTARTWINAMP ie plugin uninstall

download v1.72

-daz

DrO · 17th September 2004, 21:21

Time Restore & Autoplay v1.8

Added 'start at beginning of playlist' option for when Winamp loads
Added 'Delay autoplay until all plugins are loaded' useful if Winamp is under heavy load when loading (especially on older machines )
Tweaked preferences page slightly (mainly for the new options)
Updated language file to v1.1

get v1.8

Updated version of my first Winamp plugin (which is just short of being a few hours as i post from being registered on the forums for a whole year

)

[edit]uploaded again @ 22:17 BST due to a minor prefs issue[/edit]

-daz

siebe83 · 17th September 2004, 21:25

Hehe, congrats!
Or should we congratulate ourselves for having you for a whole year now?

DrO · 5th October 2004, 22:56

Time Restore & Autoplay v1.85

Added 'Randomise playlist on load option'
Added option to set the classname of Winamp when loaded (something i use for dev purposes)
Tweaked preferences page again so it still (just) fits on a 640*480 display (call me old fashioned )
Closing the preferences dialog no longer brings the main winamp window to the front (under Modern skins)
Updated language file to v1.2

get v1.85

looks like this one has come to an end (or has it) since i can't think of anything else that is needed but hey, you never know

-daz

electricmime · 6th October 2004, 13:35

im not sure if its been asked, but im too lazy to look...

would it be possible to add this to like the stop right click menu 'restore after next close' where it only restores the next time...

when i shut down my computer, and then leave, and then come back, i dont want it to restart in the same location of a song when i had to leave.. but when i need to close winamp(to install a plugin or change settings or whatever) it would be nice to say 'restore next time' or whatever and then close winamp, install new plugin, and then it continue without restarting the song..

not been asked afaik (and i'm too lazy to double check as well

)

i'll add an option to only 'restore on a winamp forced restart' but will also add the menu option for the 'restore on next load' option (as well as the temp option in the prefs dialog) which will be set to override other related options for that one time

noted and on the todo list now for 1.9

Hello
I decided yesterday to move to classic skins (much faster and less cpu) and it seems that timerestore and play doen't work with any classic skin (or maybe sometimes , not sure). No problem with modern skins
I tried another resuming plug (resumer) and I got the same issue!! If I install Bluecave_Winamp_Slide (but disabled) timerestore works fine (but Bluecave Slide makes another bug!)If I uninstall Bluecave_Winamp_Slide it doesn't work anymore...
Strange isn't it?

I use Winamp 505

DrO · 14th December 2004, 12:26

this sounds more like an issue with your winamp setup/system. have you tried using the delayed load option for timerestore (assuming you're using the current version)

-daz

jallez · 14th December 2004, 13:15

Yes I did! No change!

OK!!!! I uninstalled completely Winamp (deleted the folder too) then re-installed it and it's CLEAN!
You were right... Thanks again!

DrO · 14th December 2004, 14:50

sometimes due to the way that the plugins are installed and the way that winamp then finds and loads them may cause issues in the way that these plugins which only run on startup work. but as long as all is ok now then all is good

-daz

Electron2002 · 14th December 2004, 23:05

Nice to see your still improving the plugin DrO.

DrO · 14th December 2004, 23:59

still got a few more things in the pipeline to get this to a 2.0 release hopefully on or just after the new year (i hope) and good to see you around again Electron

-daz

Electron2002 · 15th December 2004, 02:01

I had thougth you were done with it back around v. 1.7 or so. I guess was wrong, I'm now up to date.

DrO · 15th December 2004, 11:36

i thought i'd finished it as well but a few more ideas, etc were suggested which is always fun

Time Restore & Autoplay v2.0 beta

Added option to set a file or playlist to be loaded into Winamp as it is started
An extension of the above, clearing the specified file loads Winamp with an empty playlist
Updated language file to v1.3

get v2.0 beta

there's two features left to be added in (one and two (which is in there just needs a new compile to enable it))

-daz

Nunzio390 · 7th March 2005, 01:50

KUDOS Darren!

Load file / playlist when Winamp starts works beautifully!

2 great and frequently asked-for features now...

Starting with a specified playlist
Starting with no playlist loaded

JonnyMac · 7th March 2005, 02:04

Yes! Working here also. Great Job !!!

DrO · 7th March 2005, 09:10

hello,

great, great plugins

I modified the french language file to make it compatible with v2.0 beta

DrO · 12th March 2005, 20:23

thanks for that Pimousse38, i've also got another language file to update in the package. the updated installer should be done in the next few minutes.

[edit]
installer now includes v1.3 french and slovak language files

Lion12 · 12th March 2005, 20:54

Added my German language files for TRAP v1.3 and JTFE v1.3 to my sign some time ago cause I really like TRAP and JTFE. You can use them if you wannna.

DrO · 12th March 2005, 21:05

thanks, i've just updated the existing language file by replacing amano's 1.0 file and renamed it as 'trap_deutsch.ini' to maintain consistancy with the updates.

i'm not in state to update the JTFE installer at the moment as i've got test dlls all over the place which aren't release worthy like happened with one of my builds once but as soon as i can tidy things up i'll revert to the 0.96ff dll and update the installer, got a hebrew one to add in for that as well i think...

-daz

k_kolev1985 · 28th August 2005, 10:25

HI DrO,

I have created a bulgarian language pack for "Time Restor & AutoPlay v1.85". The only problem is that the translated lines are too long and part of them don't show. Is there a way to fix this? If so, please tell me how can it be done.

k_kolev1985 · 6th September 2005, 09:19

Here's my updated bulgarian language file (v1.3). I hope Shaneh includes this language pack in the next release of "Time restore & autoplay".

DrO · 6th September 2005, 13:08

i never knew shane created this one

now that the submission servers are working ok again i can update this (i'm not sure if you'd emailed me the file already or not since i'm a bit behind again on my emails at the moment).

as for the lack of space issue with the text lines, when i properly get to work on 2.x of the plugin again that should hopefully be removed since i'm moving the plugin to have an integrated preferences page which will have more space on the page by default

i'll get the installer updated with this in the next day or so when i get the time to use my own machine. thanks for doing the translation by the way

not to worry

Electron2002 · 19th November 2005, 08:07

So Dr.O, do you think you should go ahead and call the v2.0 beta good and make it an official v2.0? I can't find anything wrong with it thus far.

Koopa · 21st November 2005, 23:04

DrO, the options are currently aviable via "Plugins" -> "General Purpose".

Can you move the options to a sub category of "General Preferences", like JTFE or Playlist File Remover?

I guess this plug-in is very useful, but the options are to much hidden for several users.

DrO · 21st November 2005, 23:40

that change is one of things holding back a 2.0 final koopa. there was also something i was looking to add in for electrime (i think that's right)

-daz

Mushroom_Man · 3rd December 2005, 16:18

How about an option that lets you load a certain smart view from the media library, and not just a playlist?

DrO · 20th January 2006, 01:59

Time Restore & Autoplay v2.0 beta 2

Added/updated a few of the language files people have sent me
Updated ini handling code to make sure the plugin will work with Winamp v5.11+s multi-user support
Checked over the code and initialised a few missed variables
Merged the 'alt' build into the main build so now there's an option to "Force 'Start of list' to play the first track in the playlist even if shuffle is enabled" (there's been an 'alt' build since just after 1.85 was officially released and thought this might be useful mainstream)
Made the plugin happy to work with DEP enabled

get v2.0 beta 2

Aim is to get 2.0 final out by the end of the month with timed position saving, prefs layout changes (still debating doing an embedded 5.x prefs page or not) and the options listed in the 2.0 beta (aka beta 1 post above) plud the one below if it's viable

Mushroom_Man: i'd need to check over the ml api but the load file/playlist option in the plugin could be altered to accept a ml query in it from which a playlist could be generated on load

-daz

DrO · 22nd January 2006, 03:08

Time Restore & Autoplay v2.0 beta 3

Updated the load file/playlist option to accept a media library query in the form ?followed_by_the_query
(to make sure this works in all cases enable the delay load option)

get v2.0 beta 3

The reason for having the delay load option on is work around the difference in the plugin loading order on different systems where the media library (gen_ml) could be loaded after this one has been loaded which would make the ml check/code in this fail.

Something like ?filename HAS "fred" works a treat for me

-daz

Mushroom_Man · 22nd January 2006, 03:27

Proof once again that you're a genius. Thanks a million, it works perfectly as far as i can see.
