The ituneswatcher2 application (version 2.0.23) supports some command line switches which can be really useful for administration and testing purposes:

• /advanced: displays the advanced options in the context menu of the tray icon
• /debug: does the same as the “/advanced” command

If you want to start in advanced/debug mode permanently you can edit the settings.ini which is located in the ituneswatcher2 main directory.

• open the settings.ini in an editor
• change the value “mode” in the section “additional” to “advanced”
  

Now you have access to the following functions:

• force insert:
  insert the last inserted/detected track even if it was inserted previously
• insert custom:
  insert a custom data to test the communication
• show in browser:
  If this option is enabled ituneswatcher doesn’t insert the tracks via the built-in http-module. Now the urls open in your default browser
• request only first server:
  If you have entered multiple servers in the url-field and serperated them with “|” only the first server will be contacted to insert the track
• save history to playlist:
  All the recent added tracks will be saved to a m3u playlist

Heute ist – wie angekündigt – die version 2 des ituneswatcher fertiggeworden.
Das Programm ist wesentlich schlanker geworden und zeigt sich nun auskunftsfreudiger als die Vorversion, was die Kommunikation mit dem Server anbelangt.

Man bekommt die neue version auf der ituneswatcher-Homepage unter ‘downloads‘

Also the new ‘iTunesWatcher for Windows’ homepage is online!
