How do i get the full file path of the currently playing file in WMP? - Cheers

Wierd, I just got an email saying there was a reply, and i can't see it

That's because I wrote something that after some research, I found it wasn't truth.

Oh, If its not the truth...

dont double post. use the button instead please

So, if I put

code:

---

var WMP = new ActiveXObject("WMPlayer.OCX.7");

---

well, not from the real player.. lol

only on the script... im afraid


EDIT: Why dont you get the script Now Playing? it can have the current song in wmp..

Because the script is for my needs. It needs to tell if SamBC or WMP is open and then use the apropriate player as its source. No script supports both - I looked.

So nobody has a snippet to get the location of the currently plying song in WMP?

Look at the script NowPlaying. It includes a dll that is used to read this information. Take a look at it.

Thanks, but how do i take the information out of the dll?

You don't you include the dll in your script pack and use it. If we had a snippet to give you for it we would but we don't.

I think I get you now. I scan the file to find out how the songs are sent. Copy this code and any releted functions. Copy the .dll file in the NowPlaying script to my package. And then test test test. I'll post back on how i get on.
