WavPlay

Includes a starter guide.

Formerly known as WavPlayer, WavPlay is a Rainmeter skin, or an EDENrm application that plays PCM audio files. These are usually denoted by the .wav file extension, hence colloquially known as wave files.

Getting Started

Consider the files you want WavPlay to play.

Hover over the [ Directory ] button, a tool tip should appear showing a directory path. By default, it is designated to your desktop, so make sure that your files are there.

Consider the sequence you want WavPlay to follow.

Rename your files into ascending numbers, starting from 1.wav, the first song in your sequence. For example, a sequence of twenty songs should have files 1.wav, 2.wav, …, and 20.wav.

You may do the renaming prior to moving the files into the destination folder.

Consider the behavior you want WavPlay to have.

Unlike most--if not all--audio players, WavPlay plays only one file before requiring your action, even if you have prepared a sequence of--for example--twenty files you want it to play continuously. This is the standard behavior under Rainmeter's sound playback limitations.

This highlights the usefulness of WavPlay's Automatic Playback Control feature, which can be engaged by tapping on the [ AutoPlay ] button. With this, WavPlay will detect for silence before performing the next appropriate action on its own. Ensure that the number of tracks shown in the [ Tracks = ** ] button matches your sequence so that it knows when to stop.

This concludes the end of the start guide. The rest of WavPlay should be able to help you with their tool tips, they include:

Playing a custom file.
Setting a custom directory.
Adjusting silence detection parameters (usually not needed).
