[QUOTE="joz, post: 657508, member: 70244"] Hi all, I have been using this wonderful plugin for some time now, really like it, :thx: a lot for those of you who have put some hard work into it. However I have an issue with this plugin when it comes to handling my music collection which is on a network share. This PC that shares my music can go into standby and therefor is sometimes unreachable. In this case when I press play on home this plugin will try to play all the files which it has generated a playlist for and will fail on every single one (logically). This behaviour is kind of annoying though since it will show a popup hundreds of times until it tried all songs in the playlist. I would be really glad if there was some smart handling in this situation, for example; - Ideal in my situation would be sending a WOL packet after 5 fails then sleep for X seconds (I need about 20 to power up I think) and then try playing again. This would be ideal for me but I can imagine not many users will be using this feature - If a directory path is offline try this path 4 more times and then reject it as unreachable (directory path could be the share name or some top level dir) - If 10 items fail to play just stop and don't try playing the rest - just try playing all songs in the generated playlist but in this case it would be nice to have [B]one[/B] popup instead of tons. So it accumalates the fails in that box. - or just have an option not to show fail dialog, in this case maybe log the errors (if not already done so, not sure) I searched a bit through this thread and didn't find anything so I assume this is not known, or known but no fix provided. Would be really appreciated over here if this gets fixed.in any more usable way :thx: ---EDIT--- Not searched for it yet but if there's source available I might take a crack @ the whole WOL thing myself. Kinda need to brush up on my dotNet (Csharp and also looking for some delphi things todo. The delphi is mostly work orientated ;)) ---EDIT2--- [URL="https://forum.team-mediaportal.com/listen-music-99/one-button-random-music-48751/index23.html#post497449"]Got it[/URL] [/QUOTE]
