Excellent, thanks Alfred.
Do you think that a manual action could be implemented as well, instead of automated only - even with the limit?
Let's say I put 0 as a limit to cancel automatic calculation, but I could use a menu option to run the calculation on the current list, whatever the number of item is.
Thanks

GeekShadow

yeah :) thanks a lot !

It's Bug 6704 for information.

klint

Thanks so much Alfred :) Works like a charm

boosh

Thanks so much alfred!!

andernd

Been waiting a long time for something like this, thanks!

Chlorophyll

Thank you so much!

I need it for transferring all of my well rate music and a well balanced mixture of all my unrated stuff to a 27,9 GB limited iPod.
This add-on helps a lot!

One issue though:
For the above mentioned purpose I use 2 smart playlists which are limited to 28,5 GB and 10,5 GB.
When I use this add-on, it displays 26,5 GB resp. 9,7 GB for them.
Any idea, if the smart playlists work incorrect or if it could be your add-on? In my opinion it could well be the smart playlist, because I wondered why 28,5 GB fit on my 27,9 GB capable iPod (which actually does work) ...

hi, I installed it with songbird 1.4, but I cannot find any way to actually use it. it is listed as an add on, but nowhere else.

ihavnoclue

I can't see it either

riverrun

alfred, that works. I have about 5000 items and I did not see any performance problem with calculating the time. Does your add-on have any other performance impact? If not,it's just what Songbird needs since it provide important information. Thanks.

riverrun

another problem I have noticed: as I went through my various playlists, this add-on works with most of them, but not all. That is, it will calculate the number of items and total time (I assume it does so accurately)for most playlists, but for a few playlists, it does not seem to work at all. Any idea on the problem?

riverrun

out of about 30 playlists, 7 do not calculate. the entire library does calculate.

Chlorophyll

@alfred

Your add-on does actually calculate the size absolutely correct.
I rechecked this by exporting my smart playlist with the limit of 28,5 GB to a folder on my harddisk via the add-on 'FolderSync' and checked the total size of the files in this folder via the properties of this folder in Win XP and it displayed 26,5 GB as total size of files which is what 'Total time and size statusbar' calculates.
It seems there is something wrong with the 'Limit size' feature of Songbird.

Thanks again for your add-on and your feedback.

Cheers,
Patrik

@alfred: Absolutely 5 stars! Just two suggestions:
- 1st: it would be better if the 'Show total time and size' context menu appears only by a right click,
- 2nd: and show total time and size by a double click.

:P

Hiromacu

@alfred: Works well! Thanks! :)

BR-Charles

Thank you. Very useful. I was waiting for this.

andernd

Love the add-on, just one suggestion: Would it be possible to make the time display into hours:minutes:seconds instead of decimals of minutes?

madbrainz

you don't know what this add-on means to me! i can now officially leave windows/itunes behind with this. just a couple suggestions, like andernd said show in secs, OR decimals, and show the ammount of size and length in multiple tracks selected (like with ctrl) but those are minor, the fact that this exists made my year!

smotsie

This is a great add-on, but can you make the time display in hours and minutes? My brain doesn't easily convert 1.6 hours to real time!

@alfred: It doesn't work. Same error!
WinXP (SP3), Songbird 1.4.3

Hiromacu

@alfred: Great! Works well! Thanks! :)

andernd

@alfred: Yep, seems to be working. Thanks for the update!

free30

Great thanks.
Dose it have to recalculate every time? Could the info not be saved and recalled to save on CPU?
Thanks

free30

and of cause be nice to see the convention you get with 'iWantyourmoney' to show days or hours and such.

skorasaurus

Awesome :) This is useful when I make playlists that I eventually burn onto CD.
Works with no noticeable lag on songbird 1.4.3, linux, and a library of 11,000 items.

foolishgrunt

Feature request: would it be at all possible to augment the function of this addon so it will display the total time and size of all the files selected (highlighted)?

marilena

works great!

fredknex

the bug where the time information is not displayed for certain playlists seems to be caused by one or more songs in the playlist not having any time in their metadata. as soon as songs without times are removed it works fine.

klint

Hello Alfred
What about a nice update, with support for 1.7 and 1.8?
Thanks a lot :)

LeMirque

+1
Please update this great add-on!

Thank you! :-)

robin0800

This is now broken for 1.8.1b1
I expect this is due simply to the fact that the default number of items shown in songbird has moved from the right-hand side to the left.

To get this working on the current version 1.7.3 (and possibly a few future versions) just open the timesize-0.1.4.xpi file with WinZip (or any other archive manager), edit the file install.rdf and change the em:maxVersion tag to this:

<em:maxversion>1.7.*</em:maxversion>

dj_ddt

why can't i download it? i need it!

mizzyalana

How in the world is this supposed to be installed?

LeMirque

Will this addon be updated for 1.9.3?
