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 ----------------------------------- ums Sat May 10, 2008 1:07 pm Re: Music player v2 ----------------------------------- 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) if possible could u help me with my problem...i have the music files in a folder that is called music and is in the same folder as the program above but it still doesn't work ----------------------------------- darkangel Sat May 10, 2008 5:44 pm Re: Music player v2 ----------------------------------- process music Music.PlayFile (foldername) end music you can't play a folder so what you have to do is... 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. ----------------------------------- ums Sat May 10, 2008 8:57 pm Re: Music player v2 ----------------------------------- thanx for the help in opening the folder...the program now outputs the songs that are located in that folder but i still don't understand how i can make the Music.PlayFile to play the files that are in the folder where do i put this in the programe code: process music Music.PlayFile ("") end music fork music and one last thing what do i put in the brackets for the Music.PlayFile ...and thanx for the help guys ----------------------------------- gitoxa Sat May 10, 2008 9:07 pm RE:Music player v2 ----------------------------------- Music.PlayFile("SongName.mp3") or Music.PlayFile(String_Variable_Holding_Song_Name) ----------------------------------- petree08 Sun May 11, 2008 12:59 pm RE:Music player v2 ----------------------------------- i saved the song names into an array of strings that way i could scroll through them and use gui ----------------------------------- ums Tue May 13, 2008 5:55 pm Re: Music player v2 ----------------------------------- one last question i hope, how do u get the songs in to an array ----------------------------------- petree08 Tue May 13, 2008 8:49 pm RE:Music player v2 ----------------------------------- using the file.get command, get individual file names and place it into an array. ----------------------------------- petree08 Wed May 21, 2008 8:50 am Re: Music player v2 ----------------------------------- 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
