Accessing SansaClip via ActiveDeviceList?

dubidu · Post by **dubidu** » Sun Mar 15, 2009 7:25 am

Hello,

I just bought a Sansa Clip 8GB (v2) and found that MM is not syncing the ratings correctly.
I'd like to write a script that does sync the ratings from the Clip to MM.
MM is recognizing the Clip and it has got its own node in the tree view labeled 'Sansa Clip 8GB'.

But how can I access that node in a script? I just can't find how to do this.
I tried accessing the ActiveDeviceList, but it's always empty, even though the Clip is showing up in the tree view:

Dim devices : Set devices = SDB.Device.ActiveDeviceList("")

devices.Count will always be 0, no matter which argument is handed to ActiveDeviceList().

Could anyone enlighten me?

BTW I'm still using MM 2.5.5.998.

Thanks!

I have a similar experience has anyone got more details on what parameters are supposed to be passed to this function?

I'm suffering the same problem now - has anyone got this method to return anything?

This was designed mainly for device DLL plugins, and it must contain part of USB device ID, which is not in a human readable form.
You can use
Dim devices : Set devices = SDB.Device.ActiveDeviceList("VID")
because almost every device contains vendor ID in its USB string.

I added http://www.ventismedia.com/mantis/view.php?id=10625 so that it is possible to manage devices from a VB/JS script.

Now that we have a StartAutoSynch method as well, is there any chance we could get an OnSynchComplete event?

Implemented for the next build.

I've tested these new additions in 1628 and they seem to be working great - thanks again

I could not get DeviceHandle function to work properly on my XP and Windows 7 computers. Devices that show in MM returned no device handle. I reported this in a post http://www.mediamonkey.com/forum/viewto ... 76#p363876 How do I make sure it gets on the bug list?
