It's pretty easy to do Sirandar. There is already a command "play hits by artist <xyz>"
Edit the parameter from the first action ( MM.LoadBySQL ) in that command to look like this:

Code: Select all

Artist Like "{1}" AND rating >= 80 order by random() limit 200

the part "order by random() limit 200" at the end is optional

edit: I will see if there is a way to honour the current MM filter as well

idle timeout (sec)

the default value is 0 which means it is disabled. If you set this to 12, then if 12 seconds passes after any command, without another command being recognized, it will timeout and switch back to standby mode.

Your other option is to use intelliremote to send the script command:

UdpIp(localhost, 33000, "vox&&single")

and then VoxCommando will listen, and automatically switch to standby after recognizing 1 command.
