Do a search on the forum, there is a project that was created when AMS 4 was released. It is a Winamp substitute. I believe it has that functionality, really cool.

The other thing to look at is in the actions list, look at MP3.GetInformation. I have a project with a Jazz Pianist playing in the background and a button that says Now Playing. When clicked it will show three different GetInformation about the MP3 playing, Title, Artist and Album. Promo piece for him.

I will try to put something small together and post it later. Code is at home and I am on the road.

1. Use MP3 OBJECT > GET PROPERTY to get whatever info you need into variable(s).

2. Concatenate (string together) your variables with string function INSERT.

3. Where it says, "Enter your text" for the Chrome MP3 player simply insert the name of your final concatenated (String together) variable.

CAN U JUST MAKE A PROJECT FILE WITH CHROME MP3 PLAYER AND HAS ALL I WANT AND EMAIL ME THE FILE.I WILL APRECIATE IT,.

GET PROPERTY is what I meant, not Get Information. Didn't have AMS on the laptop. Here is a file I created on a slow remote control connection to my home PC. It will ask for a directory where your MP3s are stored and then puts them in a global list and plays them randomly. It will then show the title, album and artist as long as the files have the ID3 tag populated. I would have put more in it but the connection was very slow.

Not sure if anyone else can do that for you but I try to just provide people with learning assistance, I only ceate project files when the concept is too lengthy to annotate in a post thread such as this. In this case it's a very easy task...

Hope it works for you... BTW please turn off your CAPS LOCK key please, all caps is irritating to read, thank you.

Well Said Corey.......

[TJ_Tigger]

I agree with the CAPS comment, I was just trying to be nice. I also agree with the not doing work for people, but I also like to try to give back to the community. You guys at IR and others on the board have been very helpful in answering my questions and helping my learning experience so I figure it is time for me to give back and it helps me hone my skills. I hope it works for you!

[Corey]

What is it you find too confusing about the above directions? Perhaps we can slow it down a bit and have you commit to learning the actions one at a time. In the long run that's the best for you. Please specify where exactly you are getting confused and/or lost and we'll start from there...

Getting the song to play from a link on an embedded Web Browser window is a bit tricky. I did make a post about it a few days ago. You can view it here.

I would suggest that you have your song list in a List Box object. It is much easier to work with and would make your project a lot easier to work with.

Great Point TJ, I can't wait til i really master this to also give back, because as you stated the Mods and Staff here are very kind and friendly, and seem to answer all questions as bests as they can. I think that's what's missing in some of today's C/S and Product Support, In my experiences i get dissapointed a majority of the time, however Here you can obtain "Genuine","Concise", and "Accurate" information. It's like the MasterCard Commercials "Priceless" . The members are also as equal eager to help, where can you find that???? Not in to many places....

[Derek]

Well, quite!
