Is it possible to have the search feature applicable to the whole Apple Music catalog? Currently it is just checking my library (which is empty). Thank you! Amazing app btw.
If I have both Spotify and Music open, and I open the PlayStatus dropdown and hit the pause button, the track I'm listening to in Spotify stops and the Music app starts playback. I'm guessing PlayStatus is sending the play/pause command to both apps?
This is easily avoided by simply not having both apps open simultaneously — but I'm guessing it's not the intended behavior, so I wanted to make you aware of it.
Titles work great when music is being played from the library or playlists, but anything played through Apple Music's Listen Now and Browse do not show up. This includes music being searched up through Apple Music. Only live Radios show up, custom radios do not show up.
Thanks!
I’m trying to build the project from source but I get
/Users/xrisk/dev/PlayStatus/Pods/Target Support Files/Pods-PlayStatus/Pods-PlayStatus.debug.xcconfig: unable to open file (in target "PlayStatus" in project "PlayStatus”)
What do I do to fix this?
My system is ventura13.2.1. When I open the software, the "Check for updates automatically?" window will pop up. No matter which option I click, it cannot be closed, and the software does not start.
Hello, do you plan to add an option to hide the icon? I'd love to be able to do it.
Thanks!
Hey
Thanks for your awesome efforts on this!
Could you please add a formula so it can be installed from Homebrew
Great work on this app, thanks.
Wondering it you can, like iTunes, query Homepods or Apple TV?
Thx,
Dave
When I do not have a music app open, and click on the PlayStatus (ex. Play, Music Icon, etc.) it opens Apple Music by default. Since I Prefer Spotify to be the player of choice, I would love it were configurable in a settings page or something.
As title stated
catalina 10.15.2
Under "Menu Bar Title Options" the user should have the option to select "Only Display logo".
As song titles and also artist names can get quite long sometimes, PlayStatus is regularly hidden from the menu bar & I can't interact with it. For me personally, it's more important that I always have the possibility to click on the logo in the menu bar and skip/pause the song, than seeing the song title or the artist name.
So I toggle on "Only Display logo" only the logo of either Spotify or iTunes should be shown, just like when no song is playing.
I recently restarted Spotify to install an upgrade, and now PlayStatus is no longer working.
The menu bar no longer shows the song I'm playing, and clicking the icon just displays "No Music Playing"
My Spotify version is 1.1.40.508.gd5bc2931
I noticed PlayStatus on MacOS 10.15.7 was taking sitting at 17% CPU usage and causing my fans to spin, even though there wasn't any music playing in Apple Music. I wonder if you had any thoughts about that. Thanks
Is it possible to add universal hot keys for music controls that can be used when any app is active? This is my most missed feature from the once amazing Finely Tuned.
Do you have any plans to add a setting to toggle the PlayStatus icon in the menubar? Would prefer a cleaner look or the Music/Spotify icons instead. I'd be willing to donate something for you to do this lol.
Sometimes PlayStatus gets stuck with a transparent white rectangle and Activity Monitor shows the process as not responding after waking up from sleep. I generally have spotify paused on the background. Memory usage is ~20Mbytes when the issue occurs.
Have you noticed the tooltip sometimes getting "stuck" or appearing where it shouldn't? For example, I've noticed on several occasions the tooltip just appearing (seemingly randomly) about an inch or so below where you would expect to see it, on top of my Safari window. It's not a big deal, since hovering over the PlayStatus area in the menubar makes it go away, but I thought I would bring it to your attention. I'll try to grab a screenshot the next time it happens.
On Sonoma M2 Mac Mini, the menubar title updates the song as expected but the UI in the dropdown doesn't work. Trying to pause/next/previous has no effect but a small loading circle appears for a brief second. The tracker bar also doesn't reflect the current stage of the song at all and only shows 00:00. I am using this primarily to see the title of the song playing but wanted to call this out just in case.
I want to like track with two clicks: open the menu, then click the button
It came to me just after you closed the previous one, but can you add hotkeys for the volume, where you can choose the active volume control to be either from the player (iTunes/Spotify) or the main system volume?
Is it possible to either add horizontal padding or add an option for it? The artist/song text bumps right up the next icon in my menubar.
Hey, love the app. Just a minor issue i noticed. When i set it to icon only mode and try to change to track, info doesnt get updated but the song plays.
Is there anyway you could implement a hotkey that makes the menu app appear with the search text box active?
I don't know if this was present before 1.8 or not, but I don't think it was. If you click the PlayStatus area to summon the controls/album art dropdown and then click away to focus another app, the PlayStatus dropdown stays on top. Not a big deal, clicking on the PlayStatus area again does dismiss the dropdown, but just thought I'd let you know.
The automatic update query window does not close.
(macOS 12.5)
Hey, installed app and after launch it appears in menu bar but disappears after a sec. In activity monitor its running, but its not in menu bar.
It didn't ask me after install for any permissions. Can this be the problem?
Not a complaint, just didn't know how else to get in touch and wanted to say that the new "slide in title on new track" is sweeeeet. Thanks for making this app!
Hey, I was just wondering if some customisation could be performed on the player. For example, different preset widths so that the player doesn't overflow for songs with longer titles. Thank you!
PlayStatus crashes under macOS Monterey 12.1 on a MacBook Air 2020 (M1), when a local file is listened on Spotify.
Before crashing, it correctly shows the name of the track in the status bar, however, as soon as I click on it, it crashes.
Hi, thank you for this app and I like it.
I think add a love button to save song to spotify favorite list will be better
Thank you veyr much
I'm running macOS 12.6.1 on a 2022 MBP
App description says it supports Apple Music (I assume this is the app and not the just the service but Apple is terrible at naming of late) and iTunes (again suggests the app supports local music playback).
App shows"No Music Playing" while playing music in the macOS Music app and when the clicked repeatedly opens a dialog box to find Spotify (which I do not have installed or any interest in).
Am I missing something?
Love the app, have been looking for replacements for SpotMenu. That said —
It looks like this app pulls album art from some internet source rather than the file? For example, when I play a live/concert version of a song in my Music library, rather than displaying the embedded album art it's displaying the album art for the studio/album version of the song. Is it possible to display the embedded art?
Weird issue, not sure exactly when it started but I just noticed it — PlayStatus is not pulling track info or album art from Spotify. It pulls the track length and progress and the in-app media controls work, but the PlayStatus area shows only the Spotify icon and the album art area just shows the default picture of a dock on water.
Everything works fine with Apple Music.
Can you reproduce this or is my MacBook just insane?
