Done that. All the extra code is there because I wanted to include all
the various angles I've tried to get the thing to exit the loop when
NewShow becomes true. That's really the only hangup at this point.
Everything else is there because I've been trying other conditionals to
get this thing to quit before or when the new playlist begins. Once that
problem is solved, I can clean all the junk out. This script was a lot
leaner originally, and it began life as a very short simple script. the
other junk has just crept in as I tried to find any way to get it to
quit when I need it to.
So, really, if we could just focus on exit repeat when NewShow becomes
true, that would make me real happy. The other critiques are most
welcome, of course, but the exit issue is why I posted.
I posted the whole thing because in the past people have complained they
couldn't help because I only posted part of the program. hence, the
whole thing this time.
Thanks!
Joshua
