Additional 3rd Party Controls

Hi Ben,

I’ve been playing around with 3rd party integration and stumbled across something interesting.

I’m writing what is essentially a small, popup wrapper so I can play a specific or random mp3, pause Syrinscape while it’s playing, then play a particular Syrinscape mood when the track has finished.

But I have found that if I send the uri to pause Syrinscape, I then have to send the uri twice to play the same mood. It’s like the 1st call stops that mood, then the 2nd plays it.

I think it all has something to do with the old Play / Pause toggle button and the mood playback buttons toggling as well.

Is there, or is it possible to have a discrete Stop command uri? I have tried ‘syrinscape-fantasy:stop’ and that doesn’t work.

I hope the above makes sense. Not enough sleep lately… :smile:

Thanks,
Jim.

Hi DMG,

I asked for something similar from Ben a while back. What we came up with is the ‘Silence’ Mood/Sound from the Custom Moods Soundset - ‘play’ that one (ie trigger its URI) and any other Mood will stop playing, and then you can start the original Mood by sending its URI again.

Does that help?

Cheers
