Watching the log isn't going to work I don't think, the timing of the writes don't really line up with song changes like I thought they did. It works fine when you are manually advancing from track to track, you get a new log entry immediately which reliably indicates that you need to query for changes. Intermittent writes to the log that aren't associated with a song change are pretty easy to deal with without a lot of extra external queries.
The problem I just realized earlier is that towards the end of a song, about 5-10 seconds before the track changes, there's a log write but there is not one when the track actually does change, which sucks. So you kinda know that something may have happened when there's a log write but you don't really know for sure whether it's a track change, close to a track change or just something being logged for some other reason, without doing some detective work. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ sodface's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=19057 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=109694 _______________________________________________ unix mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/unix
