JumpTo Feathers (MaxVersion Reupload) Marko

(MaxVersion Reupload) The JumpTo Dialog as a full Songbird Feather


JumpTo Feathers (MaxVersion Reupload)



Description

Old-school Feather restored, displays the Library and other Playlist in a Winamp-like JumpTo Window.
The Author meant it to be a “medium” sized player for people who don’t care about the content panes and the browser but still want a good-feeling access to all of their media.


Feather add-on "Rubberducky (MaxVersion Reupload)" is required for JumpTo Feathers: http://addons.songbirdnest.com/addons/1744
After installing Rubberducky you have to switch to Rubberducky, then you can see JumpTo in the View-Menu as a mode of Rubberducky like the Mini-Player (see pictures).
Actually atm it is my favorite feature.


I'm not the initial author, but this is the first add-on that I canged, in order to work! It was a real try-and-error thing, but none the less fast. MaxVersion was increased to current Player versions.
The original is here: http://addons.songbirdnest.com/addon/107

If you are the author of the add-on please contact me in any case! By downloading this add-on you agree to not make me responsible for any harm or damage done with this software. Further to not hold me responsible for any law or regulation broken.

Things to do / Probs / Bugs:
It should work after a second restart of songbird. Install JumpTo first, restart Songbird and then install Rubberducky.
If you select another Playlist and play a song from it, it will automatically switch back to Media Library, BUT the next song will be out of the other Playlist.
Right-mouse-click doesn't work.
Direct feather selection doesn't work (Go: View - ...).
You have to see the menu on the top.
It can't be attached to the side of the screen.
Order of "Artist, Title" and so on can not be changed.
All dialog windows like the settings can be viewed partly, but the window size is fixed, so f.e. you can not change the settings.
Cancel-Button doesn't work.



If you can not change the feather anymore (what shouldn't be the case), press: Ctrl + Shift + M or finally move the folder "jumptofeatherMaxVersionReupload@Marko" from SongbirdPortable\Data\profile\extensions or Songbird\profile\extensions to another folder.

Use it at your own risk!

If you tell me what to do and how to do it, maybe I can maintain this add-on. ^^

will it be updated for 1.7.3 or 1.8?

I really LOVE this one, but the code is appropriate for SB 0.6, so updating it for SB 1.8 is a major task. Due to limited (=none) experience in "featuring" and limited free time AND its dependence on another outdated addon, it would take a lot of time.

I am thinking about it. This week I'll try if updating maxVersion and some cosmetic changes are enough. But I can't promise anything!

Test SB (with disabled compatibility check)
Addons installed:
JumpTo Feathers (MaxVersion Reupload)
Rubberducky (MaxVersion Reupload)
Rubberducky Dependencies

Result:
mini player looks good and works.
jumpTo player looks a little bit messed up (but works).
BUT the main player looks completely broken (but works).

I could update MaxVersion BUT this would be an ALPHA version, so actually there is no real sense to do it a quick way.

Everybody who wants to enjoy it never the less right NOW: use songbird Dev tools OR go to about:config and set:
extensions.checkCompatibility = false
OR set maxVersion manually to 1.9.*
