Enjoy!

You should consider posting it in addons?
You can also use my free MMW plugin hosting if Addons do not work for you.

It's already posted in addons but was waiting to be approved for almost a month, so I posted here.
Here is download link from the official Mediamonkey site.

Hi,

I like your Plugin. It provides functionalty that I missed very much in media monkey.

May be you can improve the keyboard control of the dialog. On opening the dialog I would prefere that the curser is in the input field. And after typing some characters I would like to jump down with the down key into the list below. To select there the right song.

Best regards
Gravi

Hi Gravi,
It's nice to hear that you like this addon and sorry for such late response, I wasn't visiting this forum for some time due to some other stuff going on.

This is actually something I was intending to do but never completed beacuse it's not an easy task as it sounds at first. I will try it once more, maybe I'll have more luck this time

Hi all,
Plugin has been updated to new version with few improvements:

• Add to queue list from any song list (playlist, entire library, now playing etc.)
• Keyboard control improved (On opening dialog, cursor is in input box; Navigate with up/down key in list box even when input box is active)
• Youtube download improved
• More fluent playing queued songs

Hi.

Despite the good intention of the plugin, I also use MM search (loupe).

Is it possible to customize "Jump To File" shortcuts, since I can't use J and Q when searching for a song in MM search box?

Original ref:
Anywhere in Mediamonkey:

J -> Open Jump to file window
Q -> Open queue list

Hi oddBeat,
Unfortunately with current version no, there is no option for user to customize this shortcuts within the MediaMonkey.
I will definitely include this feature in next release.

In meantime, if you have some knolwedge in programming, you can download soruce code from github and modify shourtcuts directly in code.

Hi everyone,

From now on, you can assign your own shortcut (hotkeys) for Jump to file actions (Open Jump to file, open Queue files, Add to queue list), as oddBeat requested.

If you want to use combination of keys as shortcut (hotkey) combine them with "+" sign (eg. Alt+Q means that user needs to press Alt and Q buttons at the same time to trigger shortcut (hotkey)).

Before you can use new shortcuts (hotkeys), you need to restart MediaMoneky!

I recently installed this plugin and love it. However, one small glitch/issue. I works as expected in now playing. However, when I'm browsing my library and trying to type, if I type a j, the jump to dialogue will pop up. I can't find anywhere to customize the hotkeys for this. I checked MM hotkey settings but didn't see anything for the Jump To feature.

Current version is 1.1.2.9
