Getting tracklist through DevTools

Based on a post back in 2018, I am trying to use Chrome Dev Tools to get data from MM. Submitting the following request through a WebSocket to get the currently playing track works fine: var request = {id:1,method:'Runtime.evaluate',params:{expression:'app.player.getCurrentTrack()'}} But when I try ...

Re: Need Skinning Help

Hi Jiri, I am continuing to have some issues. I am trying to improve my UI by switching from tables to grids. I've got significant time (and frustrations) invested in learning grid layout, but I am able to get to UI close to exactly what I want using just HTML, CSS and a few lines of js. It works in ...

Re: Need Skinning Help

Hey guys. Sorry this took so long. Busy weekend. So last night I started to prepare files to upload. I wanted to also upload screenshots to show what I was seeing. I recently started using the Frozen Dreams skin, and when I tried moving my css out of the html file and into skin_layout_add.less, the ...

Re: Need Skinning Help

I do use the debug version of MM. I have used the Chromium Dev Tools feature for some basic trouble shooting, but I am far from knowledgeable or proficient. FWIW, I did go back to the lesscss.org playground and pasted in the css from my html file (a little less than 400 lines), and there were no ...

Need Skinning Help

Back in 2021, after MM5 was released, I developed an addon that I use when I DJ at social ballroom events. I recently completely rewrote it because the code was very ugly and unorganized, and I wanted to add some new features. I now have a new version with much cleaner and more organized code, and ...

Missing Options

Below is a screen shot of the bottom of my MM4 "Now Playing" window, along with the "Art & Details" window that sits below it. My version of MM4 has the 3 options shown, List, Edit and Copy. A friend has somehow lost these 3 options and I have been unable to figure out how to get them back. Can ...

Seek/Progress Bar

First let me apologize for my faux pas' in my previous post. I guess I may have broken some forum rules. Ok, so I am developing an addon that will display, in a separate window, 5 tracks from the Now Playing playlist. The current playing track is at the top, followed by the next 4 tracks. The window ...

Re: Need SQL Help

Ok. Feeling a little stupid this morning. Just discovered that MM already supports tagging a song with multiple genres.

Re: Need SQL Help

Okay, so here's the latest. Installed portable version of MediaMonkey 5.0.1.2419 RC-4 (debug). Was eventually able to get the Exception Error while trying to Sync from Spotify and submitted it. I was able to get a (somewhat) successful Sync. All Song records were brought over, but after I closed ...

Re: Need SQL Help

I understand that the overhaul from v4 to v5 prevents coding an addon to work in both. No problem, and coding the addon for v5 will be fine. Right now my major issue in v5 has to do with Genres in the Media Tree (left pane). In v4 there was a little triangle, and when clicked I would get an ...

Re: Need SQL Help

One more thing, Ludek. After downloading and reviewing MM5, I have found some changes and minor issues that will cause me to delay using that version in my DJ'ing. Can the example Addon be coded to work in both v4 and v5? If not, v4 would be my preference. Thanks again for your help. Bill Irwin ...

Re: Need SQL Help

Hi Ludek, I don't need it to be a separate application. What you are describing would be perfect. Click a button in MM and a window launches that has the required data, and follows the player playlist (Playing), always showing the currently playing track at the top, and then the next 4 tracks on ...

Re: Need SQL Help

I am not sure that I understand the use-case correctly. Are you looking for a way how to build a Playing list using SQL and put it into the Playing queue (or as a new list) or do you want rather get the current user's Playing list and get its metadata to put it somewhere into custom DB table? A ...

Hi Folks, I'm looking for some help putting together a SQL statement to get the list of songs in the Playing List. The specific data I would like to retrieve are: IDSong, SongOder, SongTitle, Genre and BPM. Additionally I would like to get IDSong for the now playing song. Also, is there any ...
