Hi
How can I know if a stand by player is empty or not ? Is there a macro for that ? standbyplayerXisempty ?
or another solution ?
Thanks

There is currently no macro or event associated.
Can you explain why this would be needed, as the standby players are not really intended for any automation.

i'd like to change the led color on a midi device when the standbyplayer is "armed" (using event standbyplayerload).

Please take a look to the general settings, section 'Events/Commands' and the 'Others' tree. There you'll find all related events for the StandbyPlayer, incl. the 'OnStandbyEject' event, which you can use accordingly.

With the above mentioned events you can use all the regular (DJ) Player macros, e.g.:
${playername}
${playerisplaying}
${playerstatus}
${playerstatusid}
The ${playername} macro will tell you the name of the standby player, e.g. 1, 2, 3, ...
And the status is reported via the ${playerstatus} resp. the ${playerstatusis} macro:
Empty = 0
Cued = 1
Playing = 2
Loading = 3
