You will need to create a payload xml to get the above command working.

The above method will probably work with many other media players out there.

Enjoy.

This is quite interesting, but is there any way to create a payload XML file that would work with this but uses the ID3 tags? I have working Media libraries in WMC and MediaPortal, but they both use some other method to launch the files I suppose (MP seems to be using a number ID for each file). If I understood correctly the script you have made reads the filename and changes it so it can be interpreted by Vox. My file names are so random that this is not gonna help. Is there any way to get the file location info to the payload file from the WMC or MP scan for example, but read the Artist and Track name info from the ID3 tag?

yes I think it is possible to create a payload XML file by using  ID3 tag info in python, when and if i ever get extremely bored, I may give it a go, but don't count on it.

I'm not to sure about getting path names from WMC or MP scans, never experimented with them two programs. i think it would be best just to scan the file name paths using current method in the python script and grab Artist and Track name info from the ID3 tag, and then generate a payload xml file.

[xtermin8r]

here's an idea why not simply find a program that renames the file names from the ID3tag, The Godfather http://www.jtclipper.eu/thegodfather/features.html could be a perfect example.

Why not just use MediaMonkey?  I don't get it.

[Sinbe]

Cuz Winamp since the nineties, I'm afraid of anything new!

I'll check out MediaMonkey then, maybe it'll do what I need.

[jitterjames]

I know you are "mostly joking" but if you are afraid of anything new then don't use VoxCommando cause it has only been around for about 4-5 years.

Latest news  on the Winamp integration, can now say to vc "play mp3s by artist or band name then generate a playlist file and then get winamp to execute this playlist file.

I will release the python script soon as i iron out some stuff.

[xtermin8r]

Last night i completed another part of the integration, voice control all winamp buttons , play, next, prev, stop etc and  for  "set volume" to a certain percentage using a command line program that works for winamp called CLEveR http://www.etcwiki.org/wiki/Winamp_command_line.

YES, It is now possible to create a payload xml file using id3 tags, can be done using the export feature of TagScanner, which can be downloaded from :
http://www.xdlab.ru/en/index.htm



Features:

   Rename files based on the tag and file information
   Powerful multiple files tag editor
   Import tag information and album art from online databases like freedb or Amazon
   Generate tag information from file/foldernames
   Tag fields formatting and rearrangement
   Words replacement and case conversion from tags and filenames
   Supports MP3, OGG, FLAC, WMA, MPEG-4, Opus, Musepack, Monkey's Audio, AAC, OptimFROG, SPEEX, WavPack, TrueAudio files
   Supports ID3 1.0/1.1/2.2/2.3/2.4 tags, APE v1 and v2 tags, Vorbis Comments, WMA tags and MP4(iTunes) metadata
   Supports for embedded lyrics and cover art
   Resize cover art for portable devices on the fly
   TAGs versions conversions
   Quick playlists creation
   Export information to HTML, XML CSV or any user-defined format
   Full support for Unicode
   Multilanguage interface
   Built-in multiformat player

Tried and tested, working fine.

Are you able to directly export xml in a format that VC can recognize as a valid payloadXML file, or do you need to modify the xml after export?

I am able to export xml in a format that VC can recognize, without any modifications after export.

[jitterjames]

That's how I used to do it back in the day, before VoxCommando could talk directly to MediaMonkey.  I used this script to export XML directly from MediaMonkey...

Of course that script might not be using the correct format... It has been many years.
