okay so the first thing you need to do is open the folder the music is in.
I had the user specify the name of the folder .
open folder using the Dir.Open command
to use the Dir.Open Commad you neeed a DirID var and a Folder name var
DirID needs to be an int
UserInput needs to be a string

DirID := Dir.Open (UserInput)


I then used the File.Get command to search for every file with the extensions
- .mp3
-.wav
-.mid
(turings supportable audio files)

i saved every filename into an array of strings

- The GUI and play interface is a little harder to explain, but if you understand the above then you should at least have a list of songs going

- good luck

yah i tired what u said to do but the program asks u to enter the folder and once u've entered the file it won't play the songs...here is what i have so far
var DirID : int
var foldername : string
setscreen("text")

put "Enter a file where your music is locate"
get foldername
DirID := Dir.Open (foldername)



process music
Music.PlayFile (foldername)
end music

fork music

Dir.Close(DirID)

you can't play a folder so what you have to do is...

code:

var streamNumber : int
        var fileName : string
        streamNumber := Dir.Open ("Enter_foldername_here")
        assert streamNumber > 0
        loop
            fileName := Dir.Get (streamNumber)
            exit when fileName = ""
            put fileName
        end loop
        Dir.Close (streamNumber)


use that bit of code to find all the files that CAN be played, then use the Music.PlayFile on the files that you FIND IN IT.

Music.PlayFile("SongName.mp3")

or

Music.PlayFile(String_Variable_Holding_Song_Name)

one last question i hope, how do u get the songs in to an array
Author:  petree08 [ Tue May 13, 2008 8:49 pm ]
Post subject:  RE:Music player v2
using the file.get command, get individual file names and place it into an array.

okay so i've sort of turned this program into a little project for myself

New features
- new tittle
-in this version i've added a stop/play button (kinda glitchy)
-i added a scrolling song display,
-user can now tell program where the music is using paths

Future features

-splash screen (logo and such)
-changable color scheme
-program searches computer for all music, instead of being limited to one folder
-a song library
-playlists
-removing songs from library


anyway here it is so far
