Is it possible to run two core commands on the same line?
« on: May 02, 2014, 06:55:09 pm »

Hi:

I would like to be able to run /MCC 10002 and /MCC 10014 on the same command line from Intellremote, in order to stop what's playing, and minimize JRiver to the systray.

Is this possible?  AFAIK Intelliremote only allows one event per button press.

Thank you,


Cary

Well, you can computer that way.  Try in a cmd shell:

   mc19.exe /mcc 10000 & pause & mc19.exe /mcc 10002

True.  That might work through Intelliremote, but won't the pause require a keypress?

Pause was an example command I chose, because A) mc19.exe /sleep 2000 won't work, and B) I didn't feel like using the ping-as-sleep trick.  An external Sleep command would be the right replacement.

A simple script would be a better replacement, especially if you need to pause.

I also wouldn't be that sure that Intellieremote gives you full shell parsing (for all the reasons you pointed out in the MCAutoQueue thread).  So, then you'd need to explicitly call cmd.exe, and you're getting pretty complex (and you would probably see the black cmd box each time it was used).

I'd just send /MCC 20007, but I use TrueLaunchBar with a media plugin using a hook to control MC, which gives me a tidy little media player on my taskbar.  MC vehemently dislikes being shutdown while that hook is active.
