all done!

try this with the new ini setting:
BJSoundAllDone=<full or portable path to a WAV file>
http://new.wavlist.com/tv/004/index.html

now if only it would sound at the end of a long almost-forgot-about-it copy/move job - instead of every file operation. - Doesn't really signal anything if it sounds all the time.

Maybe the solution is the ability for two separate sounds to be defined? End-of-file vs end-of-job?

[Joso]

not file vs job (since you might have one huge file or a slew of small files)

the criteria is whether background processing is triggered. (I don't know how the system determines that) - but once background processing is underway it's time to go do something else until the bell sounds or the whistle blows or whatever.

Is that doable?

I don't have the issue as I don't have enough or large files here but the original thread (I think) requesting it asked for end-of-each-job (see http://www.xyplorer.com/xyfc/viewtopic. ... 471#p52471) so that's why I posted as such...maybe I just used wrong term(s)?

I'm only trying to link these two threads as this thread should likely have been just followup posts to the other one...

Hm, works here. It was intended to sound at the end of a long almost-forgot-about-it copy/move job, and that's what it does. Do you have Configuration | File Operations | Queue file operations enabled? It should sound only once: when the whole queue is done.

Yup - background processing is enabled (which I understand is the default now) and queue file operations - but when I set up the "all done" sound - it fires whether I copy/move/delete 1 file or 100 files - It DOES fire only once at the end of the longer operation, but I don't need audio everytime I copy/move/delete a single file.

Ah, you want it to fire only when the queue/jobs have been so and so long? Well, I don't want to overdo this tweaky feature, but here is one idea: One could prefix a number of minimal seconds, and then play the sound per-job instead of at completion of the whole queue.

Code: Select all

BJSoundAllDone="100|bum.wav"

Or maybe better introduce a new key for this, and keep the other for its current function:

Code: Select all

BJSoundJobDone="100|bum.wav"

That would mean: play "bum.wav" after every background job that took at least 100 seconds. Would that work for you?

No, it's not. What makes you think so?

Perfect. One size hardly ever fits all eh?
