NAME

       silverjuke - Play and organize your music

SYNOPSIS

       silverjuke [options] [FILES]

DESCRIPTION

       This  manual  page  documents  briefly the silverjuke command.  It can be used to play and
       organize your music collection.

OPTIONS

       This program follows the usual GNU command line syntax, with long  options  starting  with
       two dashes ('-'). silverjuke supports the following options:

       --ini=FILE
              set the configuration file to use to FILE

       --jukebox=FILE
              set the jukebox file to use to FILE

       --temp=DIRECTORY
              set the temporary directory to use to DIRECTORY

       --play start playing the current file

       --pause
              pause the playback

       --toggle
              toggle play/pause

       --prev play previous file in list

       --next play next file in list

       --kiosk
              start Silverjuke in kiosk mode

       --minimize
              start Silverjuke minimized

       --open FILES
              open the given FILES, --open may be omitted

       --enqueue FILES
              enqueue the given FILES

       --help Show all available commands

       --addcredit=NUM
              Adds  the  number  of  credits  (tracks that may be enqueued) to the credit system.
              This option only works if the option "Credits may be added by external programs" is
              enabled in the kiosk mode settings.

       --setcredit=NUM
              Sets  the  number of credits.  This option only works if the option "Credits may be
              added by external programs" is enabled in the kiosk mode settings.

       --skiperrors
              With this option you can avoid showing errors about an erroneous termination on the
              last  Silverjuke  run.  This is especially useful when turning off Silverjuke using
              the "Power off" button, as in this case the operating system may not  give  us  the
              time we need to unload all modules completely.

       --instance=INI-FILE
              If  you  give a different INI-file to each instance, you can use multiple instances
              of Silverjuke with this option. All settings for each instance are  stored  in  the
              INI-file,  so  the  instances are completely independent; however, make sure, there
              are no conflicts regarding the used  hardware.   You  can  give  the  INI-files  as
              complete paths; if the files do not exist, they are created as needed.

              If you want to use different music libraries for each instance, you have to use the
              --jukebox=FILE option as described above.

       --update
              This will automatically update the index as if  you  hit  F5  just  after  starting
              Silverjuke.  If  you use this option in combination with --kiosk and the kiosk mode
              is running with limited functionality, the update process cannot be aborted.

       --kioskrect=DISPLAY|X,Y,W,H[,clipmouse]
              With this option you can force the Silverjuke window to the  given  rectangle  when
              using the kiosk mode. This is useful if you want to show sth. beside the Silverjuke
              window (by default, the whole screen is used).

              Moreover, if you add the "clipmouse" modifier, the mouse cannot  be  moved  outside
              the  given rectangle. Instead of X,Y,W,H you can also give a simple DISPLAY number,
              the first display has the number 1.

       --visrect=DISPLAY|X,Y,W,H
              Assign a static portion of the screen to the visualization. Instead of X,Y,W,H  you
              can also give a simple DISPLAY number, the first display has the number 1.

       --blackrect=DISPLAY|X,Y,W,H[;DISPLAY|X,Y,W,H;...]
              Areas  to  cover by black rectangles. Instead of X,Y,W,H you can also give a simple
              DISPLAY number, the first display has the number 1.

       --volup
              increase the main volume

       --voldown
              decrease the main volume

       --togglevis
              toggle the selected visualizations on and off

       --execute=SCRIPT_OR_FILE
              Execute the given script snippet or file. With this command  line  option  you  are
              able  to  execute  any  little  script  by the command line. For scripting details,
              please refer to the Silverjuke SDK. Instead of using  the  command  line  for  this
              purpose, you can also use DDE, which, however, is a little bit more tricky.

       Although  there is always only one instance of Silverjuke running, you may call Silverjuke
       with these commands which will then be forwarded to the running instance if possible.

       You can set the "db", "temp", "kiosk" and "minimize" options also manually to the  current
       configuration file (ini file) in the section "main".

       Most commands are also available through TCP/IP communication.
