AutoDJ Audio/Video select

[daved]

As an addon request to the AutoDJ function can a selection be added for selecting audio and/or video files whereas it only plays jukebox music selection which are all audio tracks. Be nice to be able to select video as well or just video.

I am testing if adding "Pop Video" as a genre to some videos, updating the database and then setting Select Genre to same in AutoDJ genre selection works as temporary fix ? will update as soon as I know.

No doesnt work, set genre in Video files with Video as a suffix to the genre and ticked only those in AutoDJ filter as enabled but it ignores it and just randomly plays anything under the top Jukebox tab, Video tab is ignored.

Tried a work around but adding any genre where the track isnt listed in the Jukebox tab which references files in a "Music" folder at the top won't play in AutoDJ. I have a Top Tab for "Music Videos" for mp4's which are kept in a "Music Videos" folder and would like to play these via AutoDJ but the only selection options are Jukebox or Radio so is there any way to change or expand this selection?

My guess is touch jams is dead. They haven't updated the software since January 2023 and there is still numerous things (like auto dj and video crossfading) making it difficult to use in a commercial setting.

@mikey - just because there hasn't been updates since Jan '23 doesn't mean TouchJams is dead. The website is still up, these forums are still here, I handle TouchJams support emails just about every single day, weekends included, and am still writing TouchJams code (no, I'm not going to post/advertise what's being done).

As for trying workarounds with AutoDJ/video, you probably aren't going to have much luck. For this to work I would need to implement video with AutoDJ.
