This small application sits in the system tray and updates a text file with the currently playing audio track.

It supports the following media players:

• Spotify
• iTunes

If you choose to use iTunes, Snip will automatically launch it. (This is the behavior of the COM API and there's nothing I can do about it.) If you only use Spotify, you don't have to worry about it.

To switch between players just right-click on the icon in the system tray.

Snip will write a generic format output to a file called Snip.txt within the same folder as Snip.exe. If you choose to save information to separate files, the files will be called Snip_Artist.txt, Snip_Track.txt, Snip_Album.txt, and Snip_History.txt (track history).

• Next Track: Ctrl, Alt, ]
• Previous Track: Ctrl, Alt, [
• Volume Up: Ctrl, Alt, + (iTunes Only)
• Volume Down: Ctrl, Alt, - (iTunes Only)
• Mute Track: Ctrl, Alt, M (iTunes Only)
• Pause Track: Ctrl, Alt, P
• Play/Pause Track: Ctrl, Alt, Enter (Pause iTunes Only)
• Stop Track: Ctrl, Alt, Backspace (iTunes Only)

Snip is free; however, I've received a lot of requests from people wishing to donate. If you'd like to donate it's entirely up to you. You may donate here: PayPal
