Topic: Vdjscript way of checking if a deck is playing
Was about to complain why there is no full proof way of checking whether a deck is playing. is_audible is great but doesn't work when faders are down. I was also about to complain why is_using doesn't include play. That would be it but then the magic happened, blink_play. Usage example deck 1 blink_play ? deck 2 sync : nothing So far I'm satisfied with its behaviour towards the subject.

Though it's not full proof yet since it works well only for the earlier section of a song. When a song nears the end it blinks hence can't rely on it. It would have been nice if endOfSongWarning setting affected it. Overall it is still okay since most usage for me is from the start to past middle of a song.
 
play ? this : that
Keep it simple
 
Fantastic! This is it. Was over thinking earlier.
