I was wondering if FlashNSF features an option to autoplay a file once it's loaded. I couldn't find it among the other configuration possibilities, so I figured asking here would be my best bet.

Sorry for the triple post, but there's something I can't figure out and could possibly be a bug...

I have taken a NSFE file, set the playlist so that there's only one track on it, and reset every track's length and fade to 0 except for the one left in the playlist. NotSo Fatso plays it fine, but FlashNSF skips every track.

Here is an example of such a file.

Hi juef, seems like that is a bug, and I've added it to my list, but wouldn't it be more proper to write a new playlist (plst) chunk instead of zeroing out the lengths of the songs?

Thanks for the reply! I actually had written a new playlist, but I figured I'd still "initialize" the lengths and fades of tracks that weren't included in it. I have no idea why I thought 0 would be a nice value... So yeah, I'll give non-zero lengths to my tracks and create a playlist without problem - it's definitely more proper! I just wanted to report this since this since the NSFE specification allows it.

Also, I just wanted to make sure you didn't miss it - have you read my 2nd previous post?

Thanks a bunch! I'm really grateful for FlashNSF and for your help!

I've added autoplay to my todo list.

Thanks!

I guess I should let you know what I'm doing with FlashNSF!

First of all, I'm conducting a kind of survey on another forum, where the ultimate goal is to make a "Top 100 NSF tracks" list. People have nominated about ~1700 tracks, which would make it impossible for most people to rate each track individually. So basically, I have modified NotSo Fatso so that it can batch-make NSFEs with single-track playlists for each of these tracks, which play randomly and must be rated by the listener.

Somebody suggested I leave the thing online when the rating process is done, so I'm probably just gonna tweak it a little and make it some sort of NSF radio (hence the interest in the autoplay feature ).

Neat! What's the link?

Until the rating process is done, I'd rather not post it on another forum; the community participating in this has musical tastes I'd very much like to see reflected in the results.

See your PM's, though!
