ZXpand-AY test files - Now at V2!

[sirmorris]

Hi all,

in case you want something to plug and play - here's my modification of Andy's player code and some test tunage.

Copy the pt3 file to your SD card, set it as the working directory with:

CONFIG "D=PT3"

and LOAD "POP".

Scroll through the tunes with a joystick if you like, otherwise use the cursor keys.

** V2 - use left/right (cursor keys or joystick) to skip up and down a 'page' at a time. Supports up to ~900 files.

Enjoy!

now thats the kind of UI i need when the time comes...

Thanks Sirmorris for another great piece of code.

Just drop PT3s in the 'tunes' folder and you're away.

The code might not stand much alteration - if you do play then make sure all the variables are declared up front - the playlist renderer uses a cached value for the location of the file list in memory. If the list (content of F$(x,y)) moves, then ... well, who knows

Just discovered an oddity

The right cursor key on My Kadee keyboard also acts as the play key weird?
Does it do the same on a normal Zeddy anyone?

Yup, pressing '8' (unshifted) plays the song too.

@ Charlie
Is there a limit on the amount of files that can be placed in the tunes folder?
I put 2,650 files in the folder tried running it, I got a worried look and a 30 second light show from the Xpand before it wrote its will, then collapsed and died
I know 9 Meg into 32k doesn't go

@jens - thanks All the credit goes to Andy and Mr. Bulba - I just added a directory parser.

@moggy - err yes, i'm afraid the limit is 250 files. That's arbitrary though, I can increase it. Right is designed to play the tune too. I didn't put an upper-limit check in there Though I didn't think that people would have so many tunes either..!!

I'm going to re-work the dir-reader so it doesn't use a variable, that should make it a little more stable too.

I love how something starts then people add to it, Sergey creates a player which has something added by Andy and now Your good self.
best time ever to be a Zeddy lover.
