Hi,

I'm looking for on how to get playback events and particularly when playback or current song is finished...

For the playback end, I think the

Code:

GUI_MSG_PLAYBACK_ENDED

could help me but I don't know how to handle these message

For current song perhaps

Code:

m_decoder[m_currentDecoder].GetStatus() == STATUS_ENDED

...

Is there less complicated solutions to handle playback events and how to wait for those events and do something when they happened

I suggest reacting to the GUI_MSG_PLAYBACK_ENDED would be the way to go.

It depends where you want to be able to react to the message as to how you'd go about implementing it.

I want to implement a new builtin "ShutdownAfter" feature which can take this two parameters : playback or playing in order to shutdown XBMC after the current playing or once the playlist has finished (playback).

For the last one, effectively I think the best is to add some code in the OnMessage function in Application.cpp but this way make me add some variables and I don't like this idea. I would like to keep the message directly in the Utils.cpp file.

And for the first one, why not to create a new message, GUI_MSG_PLAYING_ENDED
