Topic: Auto eject a song after it has played
Is there a script or add on to eject a song from the player once it has finished playing?

makes no sense to me ..... song will be eject anyway when next song is being loaded in the deck.
you can also config a custom button with the script " unload"

I second that. I think it's a bad idea having songs eject automatically unless you are loading a new song. I mapped an "unload" on one of the option buttons incase I wanted to unload a video and crossfade video into effects instead of a parked video.

I usually map the play button on the skin to unload on right click and one of the controller buttons to unload when held 300ms. Don't see the benefit of unloading automatically

Actually this will free a little bit of RAM in short period of time until loading a new track. Could be useful if memory usage is an issue.

I play music on the fly sometimes and not from playlist loading 4 decks at a time. Sometimes I get so distracted and I wonder if I played a song or not. Thats why is would be nice to see a empty deck.

In your case i would suggest to enable the setting keepPlayingPastEnd, so that the Deck doesnt goto to Cue point (sometimes its Start) once finished and confuse you.

Here is a script that you can put in a BUTTON so you can also see that it is ACTIVATED (Blinking) or OFF (not Blinking). YOu can turn it off/on at your will.


repeat_start unloadme ? blink & on & repeat_stop unloadme : repeat_start unloadme 500ms -1 & deck all & songpos_remain 500ms ? set finished 1 : var finished 1 ? not play ? unload & set finished 0 ::
