itunes track number out of order
iTS (iTunes Track Selector) 1.1
A simple Automator function that selects the track playing in iTunes every 10 seconds. more>> A simple Automator function that selects the track playing in iTunes every 10 seconds.
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.

iTunes Art Switcheroo 0.8
iTunes Art Switcheroo - takes album art from the currently playing track of iTunes and displays the available art in its window more>>
iTAS 0.5 may not sound like much of a program. After all, iTunes already displays the art for you. So, what gives?Well, iTAS does give you some advantages.
First of all, if iTunes does not have the album art, you are given the option to display your favorite pictures (yourself, your girlfriend, wife, partner, fantastic scenes, and whatever you choose from your image files. iTAS will display it for you. Sounds cool?
But theres more! To avoid getting lost in the midst of listening to iTunes and looking at the display, iTAS displays the current track and artist together in one text field. And, to bring more life to the window, the song-artist combo text scrolls every 15 seconds (a la ticker tape in Wall Street; is that how they call it?).
Enough? Well, theres one just one more life-giving feature. The window is displayed at random locations on the desktop (a la screensaver, but not really) every time the track-artist combo text field starts scrolling.
This program is still undergoing further development. If you have suggestions on how to improve it, please send me an email - see my email address below.
