Any way to force shuffle to "on" at startup?

[nsurg]

Hey, I was wondering if there is any way to automatically force the state of shuffle to "on" or to "off" regardless of where it currently is set. I don't care if it is done by a script, hotkey, or mouse click...

I recall that the shuffle button is unable to be scripted, according to some older posts... I have an external program, girder, that will toggle the shuffle for me, but it would be nice to know the "state" of shuffle.

Or am I just rehashing the shuffle/scripting question again?

Thanks for any ideas...

Actually, since MM 2.5.2 these scripting wishes (concerning Shuffle through scripting) have been added.

So, to set shuffle off on startup, use this autoscript:

Code: Select all

Sub OnStartup

  SDB.Player.isShuffle = False

End Sub

You can off course also read the value of SDB.Player.isShuffle through scripting, to know if shuffling is enabled or not.
Similar things that were added:

Code: Select all

SDB.Player.isRepeat
SDB.Player.isAutoDJ
