Erland,this is my MusicInfoSCR with your patch (and a few others). Could you please test this, whether it's still working for you? I haven't come up with a version of one of my other plugins to support this new API, yet :-)
1. It calls getMusicInfoSCRCustomItems() during the initialization on all 2. The getMusicInfoSCRCustomItem() will be called on the plugin each time MusicInfoSCR wants to display text text and finds a custom item. The
I'll add these instructions to my web page when publishing this latest version. Ok?
It would probably be possible to retreive custom items every second also, but I decided that it was enough to retreive them at screensaver activate and at track change. I was not sure if it would result performance problems if I retreived them too often, but I have not tested this.
This depends on what you're doing in your code: displaying a rather static value won't hurt. But I was thinking about a simple plugin to display some file's content: if this opens a file, get's the content and closes it again every second (or even a few times per seconde), this would be a rather big hit on the server's performance. Let's keep it simple for now.
Thanks a lot for this contribution! It's a great experience to see other people spend time improving my work :-)
