Free current itunes track software for mac

iTunes Track creates a floating window that displays the current playing track from iTunes. There are also control buttons that allow you to play, pause, and skip tracks. Its window transparency, size, color and update interval are all modifiable.
Enhancements:
- Fixed stream display.
- Recompiled with Xcode.

iTS is a simple Automator program which checks every 10 seconds which song is currently playing in iTunes and selects the track. What is it good for, you may ask. If you like the new Genius bar in iTunes 8 you have always to select a track to see the information in the Genius bar. With iTS it is done for you automatoratically. If you dont have iTunes 8 with its Genius feature iTS only selects the current track and is therefore just nonsense.
You cannot select another song or switch to another playlist while iTS is running. After 10 seconds the current song is selected again. But when you stop the playing track you can select something else while iTS is running.
You have to quit iTS manually when you want to click around in iTunes tracks. Do this via the application menu of iTS or by using the dock. iTS quits itself (after 10 seconds maximum) when iTunes is quit.
The Automator status bar is displayed in the menu bar of each application. After you quit iTS this status is displayed for some more seconds. Just ignore this.
The program uses fairly high processor power. I will try to solve this problem in future versions.
You can alter the waiting time of iTS. Open the program with Automator and find the line starting with "delay". That number represents the number of seconds iTS waits before repeating the loop.

System requirements:
-

A package of AppleScripts which simplify the following tasks: (a) encoding in FLAC of AIFF or WAVE tracks selected in iTunes and converting ID3 tags to FLAC comments, (b) decoding FLAC files to AIFF or WAVE and converting FLAC comments to iTunes ID3 tags, (c) encoding audio CD images of the bin/cue type to FLAC, and, (d) decoding FLAC-encoded audio CD images.

Kung-Tunes (was iTunesTrackInfo) retrieves the currently playing audio track in iTunes and uploads it to a webserver. Any scripts on that webserver can then access the uploaded file to dynamically display iTunes tracks on a webpage.
Either manually or at timed intervals, iTunesTrackInfo retrieves the currently playing iTunes track, saves it to file, and uploads the file to a specified webserver.
To finally display iTunes track details on your website, you need to create a php or perl script. Details are shown in the accompanying readme file.
Before installing this version, please delete your old copy of Kung-Tunes first.
Enhancements:
- Fixed problem with format of recent track list at startup of Kung-Tunes.

QuickTunes is an easy-to-use, easy-to-run, iTunes plug-in. Just double click the icon and you have a nice little menu displaying the current iTunes song. Click on the menu and access extra commands for iTunes. QuickTunes also includes customizable hot keys to access iTunes features at the click of a button from any application. Depending on your particular customization, QuickTunes will pop-up a floating window that displays current song info as well as album art. You may also choose from 6 different delicious colors for the floating window.
The program runs in the background so there is no dock icon or any application menus.
Enhancements:
- The Open Floating Window menu item now changes its text and function based on whether the window is open or not.
- Default hotkey for Play/Pause changed to control-command-space to resolve conflict with Spotlight.
- Now receives notifications from iTunes for song changes (instead of polling).
- Reduces idle CPU usage to 0% (Major enhancement in performance)
- Added other icons to QuickTunes menu for visual improvement.
- Other minor enhancements in performance.
- Minor bug fixes.

Tunes Doodad lets you instantly switch playlists, skip tracks, or pause iTunes, all without using the iTunes interface, or bringing up a pokey Dashboard widget.
It installs itself as a tiny icon in the System Bar (up there next to your clock) and acts as a remote control for iTunes.
There are several preferences: choose which playlist types to display (Library, Smart Playlists, User Playlists, Podcasts, Purchased, Videos), and sort all of your playlists alphabetically (youd think iTunes would let you do this, but it wont...), some other stuff, too.
Enhancements:
- The Doodad is now a Universal Binary, so it runs natively on PowerPC and Intel Macs
- Fixed display of international characters in playlist names
- Updates to include Podcasts, Videos, and Purchased items.
