"Fade on stop/pause" duration control (was: Plug-in for audio fade?)

<< < (5/10) > >>

karashata:
So... What you want then is an on-demand fadeout at the end of a track when you press a button..?

Since demand for such a feature is likely to be very, very low, you'll likely have to figure out how to code something like that yourself, or find a developer who would be interested in working on something like this... (Something that might be rather difficult, but who knows..? One of the developers might actually find something like that interesting...)

In any case, it might be a good idea to look through the docs index and look through some of the wiki articles on how to download the source code, how to set up a build environment, and how to compile the firmware... Of course, this all assumes you have some knowledge of C programming so you could actually write the code to add such a feature... You could probably borrow some of the code from the fadeout on stop/pause, tweaked a little to do what you want.

No. What I want is an on-demand fade-out when I press a button.

Well first it seems a good idea to get the answer to this question.

Llorean:
So why exactly doesn't "Fade on stop/pause" work for this?

As I said:


--- Quote ---The standard "Fade out on Stop/pause" might do if it could altered for greater duration e.g. 3s rather than the current ~0.5s.

I asked the question because if the answer is "Yes", I'd expect such a plug-in to offer that flexibility.

karashata:
Well, feel free to download the source code and modify the fadeout duration if you feel it needs to be longer. I'm not sure the developers want to make it longer by default, and making it a user-configurable setting...

Actually, would anything be wrong with making that a user-configurable setting if it was done effectively..?
