Thread: Windows MP3 Car Software

how bout, forward / back an album. If you have your mp3's set up in directories for each album, as most of us do, the how about being able to go to the next album (much like a changer)

hey its food for thought.

If your going to go through with it, make sure you have add directory, not just file! I want to be able to add my "rock" directory (1200 songs, heh) or add my "misc techno" or whatnot.

Here's how I'd like it set up (criticism wanted)

Playlist Menu:
Add file to playlist
Add directory to playlist
Remove file(s) from playlist
Clear Playlist

And be able to do stuff like

Playlist -> add directory -> rock -> Our Lady Peace -> Spiritual Machines

and listen to an album that way, or just one song off of the album. Or even select the artist directory, and listen to all of their cd's.

yes? no?

Most people have their stuff arranged in the genre -> artist -> album -> song format, right?

My player uses the MS Speech API/SDK for voice feedback. Several things I have learned:

-will not work in all machines. Probably does in 99%
-cannot speak with Media Player in other state except STOPPED.

I have also not been able to find any documentation on the Media Player object model.

are you going to make any custom made menus like (for character lcd):
push [menu] and the display will show you this:


1) Crossfader plugin
2) Speed plugin
3) anythin you want


push [2] and the speed plugin (for winamp) will start and a new display will appear:


New Speed? _%


Here, write the speed you want, like [1][0][4] (104% of normal speed) and [enter] and a macro (for example a macro made by girder or any other mfreeware macroprogm) will start and input 104 in a field in the plugin and do some other **** when you push enter.
That couldn't be so hard to make or?

please,please,please,please,please
