🚀 | Only start Audio with Play-Button

[Xenorollmops]

Hi everybody,

I would like to controll some motorised parts of the box I am working on. To achieve this, I need two features:

1. One (or more :) ) digital pin(s) that turns high when playing audio starts and turns low when playback finishes
2. Audio output shall not start automatically when the RFID tag is read. It shall only start by using the GPIO Play button.

For making 1. work I found this: https://github.com/MiczFlor/RPi-Jukebox-RFID/issues/171 Does this methode still work? Anyhow, is there a way to manipulate the behavior of e.g. the status LED perhaps? That strikes me to be the better idea.

For 2. I tried to find the part of the skript that autolauhches the playback, but I was not able to locate and uncomment it.

Can you help me with this Issues?

Thanks a lot in advance. Xeno

the most blunt method would be adding a pause command to the end of your rfid_trigger_play.sh: $PATHDATA/playout_controls.sh -c=playerpauseforce

depending on your hardware, you might end up with roughly 1 second playing time before pause kicks in. In case you look for a more elegant solution, i guess you have to dig through the playout_controls.sh file and comment out the actual play-commands (look for mpc play)
