Unexpected BEEP when ad is sensed #6

Closed blakenan-bellese closed 3 years ago

blakenan-bellese commented 3 years ago

I'm not 100% sure this is behavior due to the script, but I get a loud system beep whenever an ad is sensed. The ad is muted and unmuted when song is detected, so that is working well. Just the beep is a bit jarring. Feel free to close if this is not caused by script. I'm happy to help debug/test.

P.S. - Thanks for sharing the script. Love it.

Hey, thanks for reporting. I think your problem resides on the configuration of your terminal window.

Open the terminal app and go to Preferences > Profiles > Advanced and uncheck the Audible Bell option.

The script doesn't generate any audio alerts so it has to be terminal. Check it out and let me know if that worked so I can go ahead and close the issue.

Thanks for the feedback, this fixed my problem. I had tried this once, but I'm a newb with iTerm2 so I guess I did it wrong. Your suggestion promoted me try again. No more beep now. Appreciate the help and sorry for the newb noise.

Here's the cause of my issue, unrelated to the script: https://gitlab.com/gnachman/iterm2/-/issues/7964#:~:text=Linked%20issues&text=The%20simplest%20fix%20is%20to,Save%20the%20window%20arrangement.
