thanks for the information.Brian wrote:Actually this way is highly inefficient anyway. It is often forgotten that when DynamicVariables is defined, the meter/measure will read all of its values on every update.
i was kinda expecting that. the program doesn't close itself, but keeps streaming. i was hoping to get the metadata of the single tracks (similar to a tail command). WebParser is kinda pointless for this without hammering the server every few seconds or so, seems i have to look harder in the mpg123 documentation.Brian wrote:@mgp123.exe: I am not entirely sure how that programs works. If the program expects input (even to close), then it won't play well with this plugin at all. I noticed you did a control-C to exit that program, so I am not sure if it will work or not. I can try to play with that program later.
i noticed there are still hiccups. it seems that sometimes when the action is finished, the output is not fetched (this does not happen very often, maybe one out of forty times):
this skin uses three RunCommand measure for three months. i have attached it.
