Is there a way to turn the Auto Advance feature on and off from the main screen?

For example, when I am playing music I want it to usually advance to the next song with the crossfade. How ever sometimes I want to turn that feature off mid-song so I can make an announcement at the end of the song. Then start the next song manually, and then turn auto advance right back on.

I thought the "Square" to the right of the Play button would do this (Solid square, hollow square, re-play symbol) but I cant seem to make that work.

Thanks

A solid square is what you are looking for. It is the stop after track command. Is it not working for you?

The solid square stops auto advance while in Music mode, but in Karaoke or Video mode, it seems to pause, then auto start.

So it works as expected (I thought that was what that button was for), but only for Music selections.

Hello DJ Dean,

I'm aware of the stop after track bug. Thanks for pointing it out to us - maybe you can help us resolve it. I'm not sure that it's as simple as working for music but not karaoke and video. It does work 90% of the time for all formats in my experience. I think that the issue is with the silence detection. I think it has to do with songs that have a long silence at the end of the track. It stops, but then after the original track ends (after the silence of the track) JJ starts up the next track. Of course, I'm speculating here. Maybe we should gather some samples that don't work every time and figure out more details of when/why it happens so it can be fixed.

I have experimented with lots of karaoke songs, and it seems to pause, then starts automatically.

If I manually go the the Player/Playback settings and set Auto Advance to off, it stops for all formats.

Would there be a way to add another button to the set (normal, stop at end, repeat..) that turns Auto Advance off from the primary screen? And have it stay off until reset?

Since I would like to integrate karaoke with regular songs, it would be so much easier not to have to go so far into the program to do this.

Thanks.

Hello DJ Dean,

We are still working to try to fix this bug. It's not necessary to add the "auto advance" option to the home screen or interface - because that's what this function is supposed to do! I've given Tony more samples and demos to show him how to reproduce the bug. We'll keep trying to figure out what's wrong and we can update you when it's fixed. Sorry for the inconvenience.

Hello DJ Dean,

I'm pretty sure this bug is now squashed. I'm including the links to the latest version here. If you verify that the bug no longer exists, we will release this version as the public release. Please backup your Jukebox Jockey folder before installing this version just in case there is a small chance we missed something.
