Title: Save / Select Clips.
Post by: bfd on July 15, 2025, 10:12:37 PM
1) creation of clips
It would be nice to be able to save the clip selection as a "thing"

for example, someone saves Thunderstruck to their device.
then they create 3 clips... times are just examples
Thunderstruck Intro Short: 0:10.0-0:20.0
Thunderstruck Intro Long: 0:04.0-0:20.0
Thunderstruck Thunder: 0:30.-0:40.0

now when selecting a song, instead a clip can be selected.  i could pick a clip for players on multiple teams, or even visiting team... save time by reusing clips.

2) clip selection
allow a player to have more than 1 clip assigned to them.  a player might want to change their song for a few games then go back, or maybe allow a kid to have a few and have them cycled

reading through other feature requests... some can be brought into this concept.
-the clips, in addition to start/duration info could contain tags  (someone had mentioned tags)
-someone could quickly create a situation for a visiting team walkout, and add all clips that have both the "walkout" and "classic" tag

alternatively to the "clips" just being meta data, i guess i could just use a real audio editor to save mp3, which already have all the ability to put meta data in, including tags.  so maybe the GUI that you have to select part of a song has a "save clip" button and creates a small mp3 in a different folder.

That's an interesting concept of the clips and probably not too hard to implement. I have not had that requested before. I will have to ponder that a bit.

Regarding multiple per player, that has been requested a few times and is on the todo list. That is quite difficult to implement as the data structure throughout assumes a 1 to 1 song to item.
