Forums Scripts & Popups mp3 playlist: how to...

Anyone have any idea how i echo or msg a channel the number the song is in my playlist? I can't seem to figure out how to do it. My script sets this variable

%mp3 C:\DOCUME~1\ADMINI~1\Desktop\albums\xzibit-[restless]-10-dont_approach_me_ft._eminem-rns.mp3 but there is no playlist number

Is your playlist a plain text file? If so, use $lines(file) to get the number of lines.

var %lines = $calc($did(dialog name,mp3list).lines)



var %lines2 $did(dialog name,mp3list).sel

in your popup, you can do this .amsg # $+ %lines $+ / $+ %lines2

I think he wants to get the position of the song in the playlist:

$didwm(dname,id,$+(*,$inmp3.fname,*))

The code i pasted works for me, i'm using it now

Maybe for you, but the song doesn't have to be selected in the playlist to be playing, in which case $did().sel won't work.

I just looked at chris's (from Digitalfuse) mp3 player too, as a reference, he does it almost the same way, so i can't see how it "won't work" but ah well

pls cruy for me

alias mp3_number reutrn number 22222 thx

If an item in the listbox isn't selected (it doesn't need to be selected to play a song), then $did().sel/$did().seltext won't return anything because nothing is selected.
Most mp3 players have playlists, but don't require that you select a song in the list to play that song.

Well when it comes to the end of an mp3, it selects the track in the playlist and highlights it, therefor it shows the number it is in the playlist

Not all playlists do that (he didn't state whether his did it or not), which is why i told him a way of doing it regardless of whether it was selected or not.
