'''Roll20 Audio Master''' (or '''Roll20AM''') is a script that allows you to replicate all of the commands in the basic {{Jukebox}}, and then some via chat commands or a user interface that displays within {{Text Chat}}, along with the ability to grant [[players]] selective access to the jukebox.
  
==Overview==

{{notebox|See Also the '''[https://app.roll20.net/forum/permalink/10593263/ Simple Sound]''' API, which is more simple to use }}
I felt there needed to be a comprehensive jukebox control script. This script allows you to replicate all of the commands in the basic jukebox and then some via chat commands or a user interface that displays within chat. The script allows playlist functionality by importing all tracks and playlists from Jukebox into Roll20AM.  There's an ability to create up to 4 dynamic playlists (called Tags) from individual tracks so you don't have to go back and manipulate Jukebox and import again into Roll20AM.  The in-game help has been disabled for the time being because of the new User Interface, which makes building help around the UI a challenge.

'''Roll20 Audio Master''' (or '''Roll20AM''') is a script that allows you to replicate all of the commands in the basic {{Jukebox}}, and then some via chat commands or a user interface that displays within {{Text Chat}}, along with the ability to grant [[players]] selective access to the jukebox.
  
==The User Interface==
+
The script allows playlist functionality by importing all tracks and playlists from {{Jukebox}} into Roll20AM.  There's an ability to create up to 4 dynamic playlists (called Tags) from individual tracks so you don't have to go back and manipulate Jukebox and import again into Roll20AM. The in-game help has been disabled for the time being because of the new User Interface, which makes building help around the UI a challenge.
The UI is designed so once you are in it, you won't have to execute Roll20AM commands. However, because dice rolls and player chats can fill up the chat window it's always handy to have a macro with !roll20AM --config ready to go to bring it back up.
+
  
===Configuration Menu===
+
The API command always starts with:
*Master Volume - Click on the volume level to set another default volume.  This updates all playlists and tracks.  Master volume is the loudness (0-100) that a track will start playing at. 
+
<pre style="overflow:auto;white-space:pre-wrap;">!roll20AM</pre>
*Fade Time - Click on the seconds to set another default.  This updates all playlists and tracks to the new fade time.  Fade time is the number of seconds to fade in or fade out tracks. 
+
__TOC__
*Delayed - Click on the seconds to set another Delayed time.  This updates all playlists and tracks.  Delayed is the number of seconds to wait before anything is done with a track.
+
{{apiboxRec}}
*Playlists - Brings up the Playlists Menu, which shows all playlists you have defined in Jukebox. 
+
==Getting Started==
*Tracks - Brings up the Tracks Menu, which shows all tracks you have in Jukebox.  If you have a lot of tracks, this menu can be a challenge to use
+
By default, Roll20AM doesn't have access to any of your {{Jukebox}} tracks & playlists, so they need to be imported.
*Tags - Brings up the Tags Menu, which shows 4 Tags (Tag 1 through Tag 4).  Tags are "dynamic" playlists that enable you to assign any number of tracks into one of the 4 tags
+
*Stop All Tracks - Stops audio for all tracks across all playlists
+
*Import Playlist - Brings in all Playlists from Jukebox, assigns all tracks in those Jukebox playlists to the Playlists in Roll20AM and brings in all other tracks that may not be assigned to Jukebox Playlists
+
*Remove All - Cleans out Roll20AM by removing all playlists and tracks from Roll20AM.  This does not affect Jukebox.  Use this when you make a lot of changes to your Jukebox Playlists.  This is also needed when there is a schema change in Roll20AM.  Check Schema version at the top of the script.
+
===Audio Master Controls===
+
*Volume - clicking on the current volume level brings up a roll query where you can enter a new volume.  This volume will be applied to the playlist and all tracks in the playlist.  It does not change the volume of tracks that are playing
+
*Fade Time - click on the number of seconds brings up a roll query where you can enter a new fade time (in seconds).  This is applied to all tracks in the playlist/tag, if clicked there, or to an individual track, if clicked there.  Fade time is used to determine time it takes to fade in and fade out a track
+
*Delayed Time - click on the number of seconds to bring up a roll query where can enter a new delayed time (in seconds).  This is applied to all tracks in the playlist/tag, if clicked there, or to an individual track, if clicked there.  Delayed time determines the number of seconds to wait until the next Roll20AM action is taken. 
+
*Play/Stop Button - click on play to start the track.  The playlist will turn green to show it's running and a stop button will appear to stop the playlist whenever you wish.  Click on the stop button to stop the track.  The playlist will turn back to red to show it's stopped and the play button will appear to start it again
+
*Fade In/Fade Out Button - click on this to fade in the track. The sound will gradually increase from 0 to the current track volume based on the Fade Time.  The playlist will turn from red to green to show it's running and the fade out button will display.  Click the fade out button to fade out the track
+
*Decrease Volume - click on this once or multiple times to reduce the volume of the track.  If the track is playing, it will reduce the volume of the playing track
+
*Increase Volume - click on this once or multiple times to increase the volume of the track.  If the track is playing, it will increase the volume of the playing track
+
*Mode - click on this to set the mode of the Playlist/Tag/Track
+
:*Single - Plays a single track and stops
+
:*Loop - Plays through all songs in order and will start again with first song when it has played all songs
+
:*Random - Randomly chooses a song to play and will continue to randomly choose other songs until the playlist is stopped or faded out.  Not available for Tracks
+
:*Shuffled - Uses an method to shuffle the tracks and then will play through all songs in a shuffled order. Not available for Tracks
+
:*Together - Plays all tracks in the playlist at once. Not available for Tracks
+
*Unlock Track- click on this to enable player access to the playlist.  Players can't see the Roll20AM menus, but they can issue macro commands against the playlist.  The icon changes from locked to unlocked.  Click on the unlock icon to lock the playlist again
+
*Remove Track - click on this to remove the track from Roll20AM
+
*Tags
+
:*Tag 1 - click on this to assign the track to Tag 1.  The icon changes to a check mark.  Click on the check mark again if you want to remove it from Tag 1
+
:*Tag 2 - click on this to assign the track to Tag 2.  The icon changes to a check mark.  Click on the check mark again if you want to remove it from Tag 2
+
:*Tag 3 - click on this to assign the track to Tag 3.  The icon changes to a check mark.  Click on the check mark again if you want to remove it from Tag 3
+
:*Tag 4 - click on this to assign the track to Tag 4.  The icon changes to a check mark.  Click on the check mark again if you want to remove it from Tag 4
+
Return to Button - This button will display the previous menu.  If you are on the Tracks View, it will return to Configuration.  If you are on Playlist/Tags View, it will return to Configuration.  If you are on Playlist or Tag Tracks View, it will return to the Playlists or Tags View.
+
  
===PlayList/Tags===
+
To import all tracks & playlist in your {{Jukebox}} to Roll20AM, do the following command once(it should update the chat to mention they are now imported):
Click on the Playlist Name/Tag Name to view all tracks assigned to it
+
<pre style="overflow:auto;white-space:pre-wrap;">!roll20AM --config,import</pre>
  
==Using the Script==
+
The Configuration Menu is where you can change setting for Roll20AM:
 +
<pre style="overflow:auto;white-space:pre-wrap;">!roll20AM --config</pre>
  
===Basic Syntax===
+
To check if Roll20AM have access to your tracks, you can do:(or select "Tracks" from the Config Menu)
All Roll20AM commands use the same basic syntax. The contents of a command will change based on what you are doing, but the basic format will always look like this:
+
<pre style="overflow:auto;white-space:pre-wrap;">!roll20AM --config,menu=tracks</pre>
*!roll20AM - case sensitive and all commands must start with this
+
*Actions (must come after !roll20AM and preceeded by --, for example, --audio or --edit or --config
+
:*--audio - starts all audio related activities (play/stop, fade, etc)
+
:*--edit - starts all edit activities (changes volume, fade time, etc)
+
:*--config - displays menus or imports jukebox into Roll20AM or removes everything from Roll20AM
+
* Commands (comma delimited list after the Action, list of commands below)
+
*'|' - all commands must have a '|' character at the end.  This is required.  Everything after the '|' will be a comma delimited lists of Playlists, Tags, Tracks or any combination and must match the name of the Playlist, Tag, or Track.  You can also not provide anything after the '|' in some cases
+
  
===Audio Commands===
+
If you want to give players access to the api, do, then check [[#player]]-section:
*play - starts a track using the tracks current volume
+
<pre style="overflow:auto;white-space:pre-wrap;">!roll20AM --edit,access|player</pre>
*stop - stops a track that is playing.  If no Playlists, Tags or Tracks follow the '|', then it will stop all Playlists, Tags or Tracks
+
*fade,in - fades in the Track from 0 to current volume level
+
*fade,out - fades out the Track from current volume level to 0
+
*increase - increases both the volume of the Playlist, Tag or Track by 5% and any tracks that are currently playing
+
*decrease - decreases the Track from current volume level by 5% and any tracks that are currently playing
+
  
*Examples
 
:*!roll20AM --audio,play|Fallout - Underground Troubles
 
:*!roll20AM --audio,stop|Fallout - Underground Troubles
 
:*!roll20AM --audio,fade,in|Battle Playlist
 
:*!roll20AM --audio,stop| (stops all tracks)
 
  
===Edit Commands===
+
If you have a track named "Wind", you can make it play & stop with these commands:
*access,player - opens the Playlist, Tag or Track for player access (they can issue roll20 commands against it)
+
<pre style="overflow:auto;white-space:pre-wrap;">!roll20AM --audio,play|Wind
*access,gm - locks the Playlist, Tag or Track from player access (roll20 commands will be rejected)
+
!roll20AM --audio,stop|Wind</pre>
*mode
+
:*mode,single - sets the Playlist, Tag or Track mode to single.  For Playlists or Tags, it will play a singe track starting with first (open the Playlist or Tag to view current track order) and then stop.  If you start the Playlist or Tag again, it will play the next track in order.  For a track, it will play the track once and then stop
+
:*mode,loop - sets the Playlist, Tag or Track mode to loop.  For Playlists or Tags, it will play each track in order (open the Playlist or Tag to view current track order) and will continue to play each tracks, starting from the beginning if all tracks have been played, until the Playlist or Tag is stopped or faded out.  For a track, it will play the track continuously until the track is stopped or faded out. 
+
:*mode,random - sets the Playlist, Tag or Track mode to random.  For Playlists or Tags, it will play a completely random track and continue to play more random tracks until the Playlist or Tag is stopped or faded out.  This mode isn't available when setting a Track mode. 
+

+
  
===Player Accessible Action Keywords===
+
=The User Interface=
Commands are shown with all possible settings. If a setting is optional, it will be enclosed in brackets. If only one of a series of settings will be accepted, they are separated by a slash "/". The order of options does not matter as long as the action keyword begins the action group and the list of tracks ends the action group.
+
The UI is designed so once you are in it, you won't have to execute Roll20AM commands. You access it with the command:
 +
<pre style="overflow:auto;white-space:pre-wrap;">!roll20AM --config</pre>'''
  
--play,[swap],[loop],[mode:shuffle/trueRandom/together/single],[delay:seconds]|track/list to play|track/list to play|...
+
It can be handy to create a [[quickbar]] macro to quickly access the menu without having to type it out.
Plays the indicated track(s) or playlist(s). When sent by a player, only those tracks/playlists that are tagged as player accessible will be played.
+
*swap - All other tracks will be stopped when the indicated tracks/lists begin playing.
+
*loop - The indicated tracks will loop. When playlists are specified, only applies when the together option is indicated and then all tracks in the list will loop.
+
*shuffle - No effect on individual tracks. Will cause the indicated playlists to shuffle when played.
+
*trueRandom - As shuffle, but the same track may be played repeatedly.
+
*together - Plays all tracks in the indicated playlist(s) at once.

Roll20 Audio Master (or Roll20AM) is a script that allows you to replicate all of the commands in the basic u Jukebox, and then some via chat commands or a user interface that displays within q Text Chat, along with the ability to grant players selective access to the jukebox.


[edit] Overview

Playing Music via the Roll20AM, 15min, by Nick O.

Roll20 Audio Master (or Roll20AM) is a script that allows you to replicate all of the commands in the basic u Jukebox, and then some via chat commands or a user interface that displays within q Text Chat, along with the ability to grant players selective access to the jukebox.

The script allows playlist functionality by importing all tracks and playlists from u Jukebox into Roll20AM. There's an ability to create up to 4 dynamic playlists (called Tags) from individual tracks so you don't have to go back and manipulate Jukebox and import again into Roll20AM. The in-game help has been disabled for the time being because of the new User Interface, which makes building help around the UI a challenge.

The API command always starts with:

!roll20AM

Contents

[edit] Getting Started

By default, Roll20AM doesn't have access to any of your u Jukebox tracks & playlists, so they need to be imported.

To import all tracks & playlist in your u Jukebox to Roll20AM, do the following command once(it should update the chat to mention they are now imported):

!roll20AM --config,import

The Configuration Menu is where you can change setting for Roll20AM:

!roll20AM --config

To check if Roll20AM have access to your tracks, you can do:(or select "Tracks" from the Config Menu)

!roll20AM --config,menu=tracks

If you want to give players access to the api, do, then check #player-section:

!roll20AM --edit,access|player


If you have a track named "Wind", you can make it play & stop with these commands:

!roll20AM --audio,play|Wind
!roll20AM --audio,stop|Wind

[edit] The User Interface

The UI is designed so once you are in it, you won't have to execute Roll20AM commands. You access it with the command:

!roll20AM --config

It can be handy to create a quickbar macro to quickly access the menu without having to type it out.

[edit] Configuration Menu

Roll20AM Config Menu
  • Master Volume - Click on the volume level to set another default volume. This updates all playlists and tracks. Master volume is the loudness (0-100) that a track will start playing at.
  • Fade Time - Click on the seconds to set another default. This updates all playlists and tracks to the new fade time. Fade time is the number of seconds to fade in or fade out tracks.
  • Delayed - Click on the seconds to set another Delayed time. This updates all playlists and tracks. Delayed is the number of seconds to wait before anything is done with a track.
  • Playlists - Brings up the Playlists Menu, which shows all playlists you have defined in Jukebox.
  • Tracks - Brings up the Tracks Menu, which shows all tracks you have in Jukebox. If you have a lot of tracks, this menu can be a challenge to use
  • Tags - Brings up the Tags Menu, which shows 4 Tags (Tag 1 through Tag 4). Tags are "dynamic" playlists that enable you to assign any number of tracks into one of the 4 tags
  • Stop All Tracks - Stops audio for all tracks across all playlists
  • Import Jukebox - Brings in all Playlists from Jukebox, assigns all tracks in those Jukebox playlists to the Playlists in Roll20AM and brings in all other tracks that may not be assigned to Jukebox Playlists
  • Remove All - Cleans out Roll20AM by removing all playlists and tracks from Roll20AM. This does not affect Jukebox. Use this when you make a lot of changes to your Jukebox Playlists. This is also needed when there is a schema change in Roll20AM. Check Schema version at the top of the script.
  • Viewed By - Ability to assign control of Roll20AM to a single or all players. Roll20AM menus may be viewed by: GM (Only), All (all players), Individual Player (drop list list of players to choose from).
  • Access - Ability to give that person access to selective or all tracks: None (no player access to tracks or playlists), Full (full access to tracks or playlists), Limited (GM has to go through tracks and playlists and click the padlock icon in order to enable access)
  • Menu Display - Ability to turn off all menu display, EXCEPT for the config menu. That will always come up so you can turn back on Menu display. This removes the requirement for the nomenu command in Macros

[edit] Audio Master Controls

Two tracks shown in the menu, where the first track is unlocked(and therefore accessible to the player)

What each symbol or part of the menu does.

  • Playlist or Tag Name - click on it to view the tracks assigned to the Playlist or Tag
  • Volume - clicking on the current volume level brings up a roll query where you can enter a new volume. This volume will be applied to the playlist and all tracks in the playlist. It does not change the volume of tracks that are playing
  • Fade Time - click on the number of seconds brings up a roll query where you can enter a new fade time (in seconds). This is applied to all tracks in the playlist/tag, if clicked there, or to an individual track, if clicked there. Fade time is used to determine time it takes to fade in and fade out a track
  • Delayed Time - click on the number of seconds to bring up a roll query where can enter a new delayed time (in seconds). This is applied to all tracks in the playlist/tag, if clicked there, or to an individual track, if clicked there. Delayed time determines the number of seconds to wait until the next Roll20AM action is taken.
  • Play/Stop Button - click on play to start the track. The playlist will turn green to show it's running and a stop button will appear to stop the playlist whenever you wish. Click on the stop button to stop the track. The playlist will turn back to red to show it's stopped and the play button will appear to start it again
  • Fade In/Fade Out Button - click on this to fade in the track. The sound will gradually increase from 0 to the current track volume based on the Fade Time. The playlist will turn from red to green to show it's running and the fade out button will display. Click the fade out button to fade out the track
  • Decrease Volume - click on this once or multiple times to reduce the volume of the track. If the track is playing, it will reduce the volume of the playing track
  • Increase Volume - click on this once or multiple times to increase the volume of the track. If the track is playing, it will increase the volume of the playing track
  • Mode - click on this to set the mode of the Playlist/Tag/Track
    • Single - Plays a single track and stops
    • Loop - Plays through all songs in order and will start again with first song when it has played all songs
    • Random - Randomly chooses a song to play and will continue to randomly choose other songs until the playlist is stopped or faded out. Not available for Tracks
    • Shuffled - Uses an method to shuffle the tracks and then will play through all songs in a shuffled order. Not available for Tracks
    • Together - Plays all tracks in the playlist at once. Not available for Tracks
    • Random Single Track - So you can use your playlist for continuous Random play or it will randomly play a single track and stop.
  • Unlock Track- click on this to enable player access to the playlist. Players can't see the Roll20AM menus, but they can issue macro commands against the playlist. The icon changes from locked to unlocked. Click on the unlock icon to lock the playlist again
  • Remove Track - click on this to remove the track from Roll20AM
  • Tags
    • Tag 1 to Tag 4 -- click on this to assign the track to Tag 1/2/3/4. The icon changes to a check mark. Click on the check mark again if you want to remove it from Tag 1/2/3/4
  • Return Button - This button will display the previous menu. If you are on the Tracks View, it will return to Configuration. If you are on Playlist/Tags View, it will return to Configuration. If you are on Playlist or Tag Tracks View, it will return to the Playlists or Tags View.

[edit] Using the Script

  • --audio - starts all audio related activities (play/stop, fade, etc)
  • --edit - starts all edit activities (changes volume, fade time, etc)
  • --config - displays menus or imports jukebox into Roll20AM or removes everything from Roll20AM
  • Audio Commands - play,stop,fade,in,out,increase,decrease are a small list of sample commands
  • | (doesn't seem true?)- all commands must have a | character at the end. This is required. Everything after the | will be a comma delimited lists of Playlists, Tags, Tracks or any combination and must match the name of the Playlist, Tag, or Track.
