Conky Rhythmbox Python Script

[pijiu]

Get rid of $font as the first item in each of those lines and put it at the end of the previous line instead. I also prefer ${font} instead of $font but it probably doesn't make any difference.

Hey thanks! Just one more thing, I still don't know how to get the Rhythmbox section to align like the rest.

Can you post your template contents?

To add to bombardment of questions...

I am have it working fine, but I don't want to see UNKNOWN UNKNOWN etc. when it isn't open. So I tried $(if_running Rhythmbox) / $(endif) and now nothing will show up ever. I even tried your example of:

${if_running rhythmbox}${color3}${execibar 1 conkyRhythmbox --datatype=PP}
${execp conkyRhythmbox --template=/home/mark/Scripts/conky/conkyRhythmbox.template}${endif}

but nothing shows up when I do that. Is there a way to fix this? Is there something that my computer is missing?

Great work on the script so far.
Thanks.

you can add this as an option to conkyRhythmbox

  -n, --nounknownoutput
                        Turn off unknown output such as "Unknown" for title
                        and "0:00" for length. Command line option overridden
                        if used in templates.

I'm sorry, I am kind new at this, where do I add -n....?

right in here

${if_running rhythmbox}${color3}${execibar 1 conkyRhythmbox --datatype=PP}
${execp conkyRhythmbox --template=/home/mark/Scripts/conky/conkyRhythmbox.template -n}${endif}

Ok, I'm not home, so I can't test, and the only thing I can see is that you have "Dimgray" with the D in uppercase instead of lowercase. Try changing that to dimgray maybe, and in your .conkyrc get rid of the ${color1} at the beginning of the last line. You don't need that since you've specified your colors in the template.

btw, I didn't even know you could specify colors in the actual template.

by using the {execi...} command you can use the formatting like that in a template

I am sure you meant {execpi...} or {execp...}
