Cool! Another MP3 Jukebox! What would be really nice would be one for a group environment, like an office, where users could rate the tracks and the jukebox would then bias its random selections to more agreeable selections. Its just a thought ...

Patches invited l-)

I do plan to add a number of other features some time; some ideas might be:

  • Removing arbitrary tracks from the queue (not just the currently playing track)
  • Reporting of track lengths (and therefore expected start times)
  • Volume control
  • Prevention of a randomly chosen track repeating soon after it's been played
  • Bulk selection (i.e. play a whole directory with one command or click)
  • Prevent particular tracks ever being chosen randomly (because embarassing or near-universally hated or whatever)
  • Some kind of voting or learning system (as you suggest). I think the best source of data about what people like and dislike is probably what they choose to play and what they scratch, so a separate "vote" button is probably wrong.
  • Scheduling tracks for a particular (approximate) time, rather than just "next"

Patches invited (http://www.greenend.org.uk/rjk/2002/11/patches.html), of course...
