New Fastplay Release: latest

Fix B key not auto-playing and rate doubling on track change

- Use lParam instead of HIWORD(wParam) to signal no auto-play, since
accelerators send HIWORD=1 which conflicted with the no-auto-play signal
- Remove processor->SetRate() calls in LoadFile/LoadURL since rate is
handled via BASS_ATTRIB_FREQ; having both caused rate to compound

Just tried #FastPlay. Wow, just wow! I'd like some more enhancements, but it seems to be very, very decent. At least, for a nitpicky guy like me who basically doesn't like anything except for Winamp and 1by1, FastPlay is definitely a thing to keep. Thanks so much @Bri! And special kudos for not using Python this time 😜
As every C++-based solution it's painful to build, but it's native which is a huge plus for me.

So tell me to get lost it #FastPlay can do this already, but I’m wondering if I could use this to play audio elements in on my show? I use Farrago on the Mac which is fine but I can’t get it announce how long an item has left to play and I know your app can do this. However I’d ideally like to be able to line up a playlist of items, then play them one by one but not continuously - so I hit a hotkey to start item 1, then it plays and then pauses, then i hit said hotkey and it plays item 2. Am I hoping for too much here??

So I realize this is probably one of those things where you'll either be like meh, or ooh cool, but here's another thing I've been working on, mainly for my own personal use and a group of friends than anything, but I figured wtf, someone else here might enjoy this. This is #FastPlay, a little media player that I've been working on. It's not and will never be a full replacement for Foobar2000, and thus lacks things such as a converter and a media library, but has enough features I think for it to still be useful. It supports being able to be set as the default for formats, for example. I'll paste a bit from the readme here which explains what's unique about FastPlay: At the core of Fastplay are what we will call virtual sliders. Right now, there are two of these virtual sliders.
The first one adjusts things like your volume and any effects you choose to enable/add. You choose what this slider adjusts by using left and right brackets, and then adjust the value itself with up or down arrows.
The second slider allows you to do things such as seek and move between tracks. You adjust what this slider does by using comma and period, and you adjust the slider with left and right arrows.
You can choose what shows up in these sliders by heading to the options dialog, control comma.
