how to turn off auto play
lipsplitter - 2-20-2008 at 11:44 PM

i am trying to make it so music will not play unless someone selects it. i cannot find a setting that will disable random songs from play. if this is not a option then that would be a great option.

i have not purchased this program yet. i am still checking it out to see if it will do most of what i want it to.

Thanks,
Shad

lipsplitter,

You can do Tools->Options
Under the green 'Play Mode' tab click the selected play mode tab (Popularity, Custom, or Bookmark) to uncheck it and disable auto play.

You may also need to uncheck the "Prevent Playback Stoppage" option under the green Sound tab if you using eJukebox with the internal player and not Winamp.

it keep play the last song. then when i clear it, it start random play again then it keeps playing the same song over and over again.

Popularity Mode ect. is currently disabled. i did what you told me to do. this is not good. this is a great player if i could get it to work correctly. if i can get this problem figured out i sure i will buy a lot of these. once i get one built, i will have a ton of people i know that will want one built with a touch screen setup. that is where im headed with this but i have to make sure it will work the way i want it to. you have done a great job but this is an option i have to have.

i am using the internal player and i am positive everything under play mode is set to disabled.

Attached is the setting i have in word pad doc.

You do have autoplay disabled correctly in your screenshot. Thank you for bringing this issue to my attention.
I will update in eJukebox 5 beta 7 to make sure that when autoplay is disabled it stops after the last song in the playlist is played.

The eJukebox 5 Beta 7 download is now available HERE

Beta 7 updates eJukebox so that playback always stops after the last song in the playlist when auto play is disabled. no matter if prevent playback stoppage is checked or you are using with winamp or the internal player.

Also when using eJukebox 5 Beta 7 or later with autoplay modes disabled it is recommended to enabled "Prevent Playback Stoppage" so that when the playlist is empty and a song is then added to the playlist it will start playing automatically within a few seconds.

You are the man. Your update took care of the problems that I was having.

This program is kick a** and the support is incredible. I am a computer network engineer and good support is hard to come by. I found a bug and the dude that owns this software had it fixed right away. You cant ask for better support. I installed the fix and didnt have to change anything. Worked like a champ right off the bat.

Im still playing with this but I will purchase this over and over. If I find anything else I will let you know. Im going to turn all my friends on to this and build systems for them.

Super A++++++++++++++++++++++

Thanks Again,
Shad
