Title: Allow MCWS calls to suppress the OSD
Post by: mattkhan on June 05, 2023, 07:43:45 am

ages ago, an option was added to allow the OSD to be turned off - https://yabb.jriver.com/interact/index.php?topic=73526.0

this is fine but not controllable via API as far as I can see, it would be nice if it were possibly to either

1) provide an MCWS call that lets you turn the OSD on/off
2) provide an option to MCWS calls (that cause the OSD to be displayed) to suppress that

my use case is specifically 2 as I would like (some) operations triggered remotely not to display on screen (setting position & volume mainly)

You could just set the registry value maybe?

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\JRiver\Media Center 31\Properties\Enable OSD

It's a remote call (to mcws) so I don't think so

Next build:
NEW: Added the MCWS function UserInterface/OSD to allow turning the OSD on or off.

Testing appreciated.  Thanks :)

MCWS can call MCCs right?  MCC 30025 turns the OSD on/off/toggle.  Wouldn't that work?

Good find.  MCC_SET_OSD_ENABLED just sets the same option.  We'll keep it as a discrete MCWS since I already coded it.

Thanks.
