Run Winamp. Control tab to the playlist editor. Now you want to add the files to the playlist. Press l for the file dialog. You can use the look in combo box to pick a directory and then arrow through the files in the listview of songs. Once you find a song you wish to add, press enter. Now you've got the first file successfully placed in the playlist, so do another letter l, and continue adding files until you have all the ones you want. You can also use shift L to pick a folder of songs at a time and then delete the ones from the playlist you don't want with the delete key. Now, do a control S. This is to save the list. You'll be in the file name edit field. Type in a name, and be sure to give the file an extension of either m3u or pls. These are the file extensions for playlists.. Tab to save and hit enter. Now you have saved your playlist. The next time you want to play it, simply run winamp, control tab to the playlist editor and do a control O. Choose the playlist you want to hear and press enter. Xxxxx Below is a list of commands that can, except where otherwise indicated, be used from anywhere within Winamp. Control+Insert+w: Announce the current Winamp window you are in, as well as a list of all other open Winamp windows. This is handy if you forget exactly where you are or what other Winamp windows are visible on the screen. If you have your JFW verbosity set to beginner, JFW will use this script to announce where you are and what other Winamp windows are open each time Winamp receives the focus. Alt+w: Toggle the Main Window and announce whether it is open or closed. Alt+G: Toggle the Winamp Equaliser and announce whether it is open or closed. Alt+e: Toggle the Playlist Editor and announce whether it is open or closed. Alt+t: Disable the Minibrowser if it is open. Note: In Winamp, Alt+t normally toggles the Minibrowser between open and closed. Because of all the difficulties that the Minibrowser causes JFW, the Winamp Scripts override the function of Alt+t and force it to always close the Minibrowser. If you really want to enable the Minibrowser, use Insert+3 to pass Alt+t through to the Winamp application. Also be aware that if you have your JFW verbosity set to beginner level, the Winamp Scripts will close the Minibrowser, if it is open, each time Winamp receives the focus. Alt+f: Bring up the Winamp main menu. Alt+f is a standard Winamp command, but users reported that they could not always go to the Winamp Main Menu successfully using this command. However, it was found that having a script to pass the Alt+f keystroke to the Winamp application solved the problem. *Alt+Control+i: Show name, bit rate and number of channels for the current track. The information is displayed in a listbox, which may be closed by pressing either the Enter or Escape key. Alt+Control+t: Say the name of the currently playing track or the last played track if none is playing. In many cases, Insert+t will not announce the title of the main Winamp application window, which contains the name of the current track. This key provides a sure-fire way of hearing the name of the current track. *Alt+Control+m: mute sound; set volume to 0%. *Alt+Control+comma: Set volume to 33%. *Alt+Control+period: Set volume to 66%. *Alt+Control+slash: Maximise volume; set volume to 100%. *Alt+Control+h: Pan 100% left. *Alt+Control+j: Pan 50% left. *Alt+Control+k: Centre sound between speakers. *Alt+Control+l: Pan 50% right. *Alt+Control+semicolon: Pan 100% right. Alt+Control+s: Announce the status of the "stop after current track" mode. Pressing Control+v is a toggle that instructs Winamp to stop or continue playing when the current track finishes. Although Control+v announces whether or not it is activated at the time it is pressed, you may use Alt+Control+s at any time to hear whether or not the Winamp "stop after current track" mode is activated. Alt+r: Review the end of the current track. This command causes Winamp to play the final moments of the current track. If no track is playing, Winamp will start playing and review the end of the current track. Insert+Control+r: Selects the amount of time to play at the end of a track when "end of track review" is invoked. Issuing this command causes JFW to cycle amongst various lengths of time. Alt+Shift+s: Announce the current shuffle mode and repeat mode settings. s: Toggle shuffle mode (Main Window and Playlist Editor only) and announce if it is on or off. r: Toggle repeat mode (Main Window and Playlist Editor only) and announce if it is on or off. Control+t: Toggle the display mode and announce if elapsed time or remaining time is being shown. Control+a: Toggle always-on-top mode (not in the Playlist Editor) and announce if it is on or off. Alt+Control+a: Toggle the always-on-top mode (in the Playlist Editor only) and announce if it is on or off. 5.3. The Winamp Equaliser Simply use the equaliser keys listed in the Winamp help system as normal and JFW should give you the appropriate feedback. In particular, when "n" is pressed from within the equaliser to enable or disable it, the new state is announced. The same is true for "a", which is use to toggle the equaliser autoload facility. Also, when "1", "2", ..., "9", "0", "q", "w", ..., "p"," Tab or "`" are pressed to increase or decrease a band or preamp gain, the new value for that band or the preamp is announced. The gain is reported as a number in the range from -20.0 to +20.0 dB. Finally, ctrl+shift+e will display a list dialog summarising the current equaliser settings. Except where indicated, these keys may only be used from the Winamp equaliser window. n: Toggle equaliser and announce if it is on or off. a: Toggle autoload and announce if it is on or off. 1, 2, ..., 9, 0: Increase bands 1,2, ..., 10 and announce the new value in decibels. q, w, ..., p: Decrease bands 1,2, ..., 10 and announce the new value in decibels. Tab: Decrease the preamp and announce its new value in decibels. `: Increase the preamp and announce its new value in decibels. *Control+Shift+e: Show a summary of current equaliser settings (may be used from anywhere in Winamp). NOTE: All the equaliser features depend on the Winamp for JFW Interface System DLL being correctly installed and available for use by the Winamp scripts. If, for some reason, the DLL is not available, the Winamp equaliser will operate correctly, but the JFW scripts for providing the services listed above will not be able to announce the statuses of the various equaliser settings. As a final comment concerning the equaliser, you may use the left and right arrow keys to adjust the balance of the sound of a stereo track between the left and right speakers. This function is not provided by the Winamp Scripts; it is a standard part of newer versions of Winamp (for example, 2.76/2.78), but it doesn't appear to be documented in the Winamp help system. 5.4. The Playlist Editor The keys and commands described in this section apply only to the Winamp Playlist Editor. The up and down arrow keys (both extended and numpad) cause the highlighted item to be spoken as you move through the playlist. When you cursor up and down the list, a beep will be heard from the PC speaker when you land on the currently playing item. The Home or Extended Home key on the numpad may be used to jump to the first track in the Playlist while the End key or Extended End key will jump to the last track in the Playlist. Most of the rest of the Winamp Playlist Editor keys speak automatically, so we don't need to say anything special here. Check out the Playlist Editor help if you are a new, or even a veteran, user of Winamp. Alt+Control+DownArrow (both extended and numpad) routes the highlight to the track currently playing. The highlight will automatically follow the currently playing track as Winamp moves from track to track in the course of playing. Using the up and down arrows to explore away from the item being played will unlink this tracking. It is re-established by using Alt+Control+DownArrow (both extended and numpad), or by hitting enter on an item. You can swap the positions of items in the playlist using the following keys: Alt+DownArrow (both extended and numpad) or Alt+Control+NumpadPlus: Swap the currently highlighted track with the track immediately following it, if it exists. Alt+UpArrow (both extended and numpad) or Alt+Control+NumpadMinus: Swap the currently highlighted track with the preceding track, if it exists. You can cursor down the list past the currently playing track and establish a stop marker at any future track. JFW will cause Winamp to stop after it plays the selection you tag. The relevant keys are: Control+Shift+v: Set a stop marker on the currently highlighted track (Playlist Editor only). Alt+Control+v: Speak the track number where the stop marker is placed. Alt+Control+Shift+v: Remove the stop marker. F12: Resume playing after a stop marker as been triggered or Winamp's "stop after current track" feature (Control+v) has caused Winamp to stop. When Winamp begins playing the track with the stop marker placed on it, a short triple beep will be heard from the PC speaker. Winamp will stop when the current track finishes. To resume playing starting with the next track in the list, press F12. Note that shuffle mode is turned off and disabled while a stop marker is set. 5.5. Time Markers and Time Announcement Commands The Winamp scripts include a feature that allows you to set, jump to and remove multiple audio bookmarks on your currently playing track from any of the Winamp Windows. You can also find out the elapsed, remaining and time length of the currently playing track. Note: Winamp already has a bookmark feature which allows you to store favourite streams so you can go back to them later. To save confusion, the audio bookmarks are called "time Markers". The idea of time markers is to allow you to set a time marker in a currently playing track and then be able to come back later and have the track play from the point where the time marker was set. This way you can close Winamp, play another track or even if you get caught up on the phone etc., you will know that you won't have to start the track from the beginning again. You can also set more than one time marker in a track. The keystrokes are as follows and they may be used from anywhere in Winamp. Alt+m: Set a Time Marker. Sets a time marker on the currently playing track. There must be a track playing for it to work, but it will warn you that no track is playing if you try to invoke it when no track is playing. After the time marker is set, it announces what number was assigned to the time marker, for example, "Time Marker3 set". Alt+Shift+m: Jump to Time Marker. This script does not require a file to be playing, but it must be able to determine which file you are wanting to play. If the file name is listed in the Winamp title bar, the script will grab it from there. Otherwise it will announce that there is no track ready to be played. If you have just opened a file in Winamp for the first time, but haven't played it, it's name won't appear in the Winamp title bar. To fix this, simply play and stop the file. Stopping the file is optional; playing it will cause its name to appear in the title bar and then the script will proceed. When you press Alt+Shift+m, the script will display a list box containing a list of all the time markers it has recorded for that track. Simply cursor through the list and press enter on the time marker you want to jump to. The script will say nothing after this, but playing will immediately skip to the selected time marker. If the file is not playing, it will start playing from the specified time marker. control+Shift+m: remove time marker. This script must also be able to identify which track you are playing. It does this in the same way as the Alt+Shift+m script. A list box will be displayed containing a list of all the time markers recorded for the current file. To remove one, simply move to it with the arrow keys and press enter. The remaining time markers will be renumbered, etc. If you want to erase all the time markers, move to the last item in the list "Remove all time markers", and press enter. This will only delete all time markers for the current file, not all the time markers you have on your system. Alt+Shift+t: Say the elapsed time. The elapsed time in minutes and seconds will be announced. There must be a track playing and, if not, the script will tell you so. Control+Shift+t: Say the remaining time. The time remaining in minutes and seconds will be announced. There must be a track playing and, if not, the script will tell you so. Control+Insert+t: Say the time length of the currently playing track. The time length of the currently playing track in minutes and seconds will be announced. There must be a track playing and, if not, the script will tell you so. When you use the time marker scripts to mark times in tracks in Winamp, the markers are saved in the file "winamp.tmf" in your JFW settings directory. There is a limitation on the use of this file. JFW can only read the first 64kb of this file, so if it grows larger than 64kb, the scripts will behave as though time markers have been set, but will not recognise any time markers saved outside the first 64kb. This is not a big problem as it takes quite a lot of time markers to fill the winamp.tmf file. Nevertheless, it is recommended that you delete markers as soon as they are no longer necessary. For example, if you use Winamp to listen to books, you should remove all time markers for a track that is part of the book you are listening to as soon as you are finished with that track. This will prevent the winamp.tmf file from filling up. Alternatively, you can simply load the file into your favourite text editor and delete the tracks you do not want to keep. The time markers for each track are saved in a separate section which begins with the track title enclosed in square brackets "[track name]". Do not edit the text enclosed in the square brackets or individual time marker entries as the scripts may not be able to recover and reorganise time markers if they are edited incorrectly. However, it is safe to delete a track's entire section from the winamp.tmf file. Nevertheless, only experienced users should consider editing the winamp.tmf file directly. The preferred method for managing time markers is to use the functions provided in the Winamp scripts. Also, if you intend to reinstall JFW or upgrade to a newer version of JFW, you should back up the file "winamp.tmf". However, you need not worry about this file when reinstalling the Winamp scripts as the installer does not try to remove or replace it. NOTE: If you are using JFW Version 3.31 or 3.5, the time marker feature requires the Winamp for JFW Interface System to be installed and available. The time marker facility can work with or without the ActiveX component in later versions of JFW, but it is much faster when using the ActiveX component. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Josh" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: "NFBnet GUI Talk Mailing List" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Cc: "PC Audio Discussion List" <pc-audio@pc-audio.org> Sent: Wednesday, May 14, 2008 8:57 AM Subject: winamp keyboard commands > Hi, > Where can I find out what the latest winamp keyboard commands are at?
