I have found cplay really useful … am using it as part of the 3MX Ultra distro on an Elonex one-T. cplay is version 1.49 but I don’t know which release of 1.49 it is I am afraid.

But I can’t get the random or shuffle functions to work. It totally ignores both requests although I do get an error message “shuffle … Oops” when I press the “s” key.

Anyone know why it doesn’t work for me, please?

Thanks

Paul

I still use cplay and would be delighted to see it get some attention.

I say take the ball and run with it, Daniel. In a situation where even the home page is gone, I think it’s probably safe to say that the project is abandoned. Grab the source code and take over development. Judging from your patch, you’re more than qualified for the job …

And when you have an update for it, let me know. I would like to see something fresh in cplay.

I’m probably one of the last persons in the life of cplay that wrote a patch to improve some functionality. Yesterday night I was wondering whether this project will ever come back into more development – and one of the things I wanted to address was improving external actions. You already know about the cplay control FIFO, but I miss things. Such as adding files by calling cplay with a list of filenames as argument. Or such as giving the control fifo any control over the playlist. I’d be curious to see if anyone besides me is still using cplay.
