SAM Broadcaster: Stop Encoders

Hello, I think it would be useful to have a plugin to stop sam's encoders for a live dj to feed in. I was thinking either just a command that stops encoders like enc-stop and/or a command that will stop the encoders after the song that is currently playing like samauto-stop. Thanks!

This already exists (!sam-stop / !sam-play), except it is immediate and not after the current song ends.

The bot can't really tell when the song ends to give a full count in like with the AutoDJ plugin, it can only send commands to SAM but not receive any replies.

I have not tested this, but sam-stop will turn off the encoders or just stop the current deck from playing?

Yep, it stops the encoders and playback.

Otherwise there wouldn't be any point since the DJ who used !sam-stop wouldn't be able to connect.
