music play remaining tracks

Postby bkilburn on Fri Mar 03, 2006 9:47 am

using xlobby there is an event to play a whole album and also one to select a particular track. if you want to play a particular track - say track 5- is there an event to ask xlobby to play that track and the remaining tracks on the album?

What your saying doesnt make since. If you are playing a whole album then "track 5" will play at some point.
"is there an event to ask xlobby to play that track and the remaining tracks on the album?... an event to play a whole album and also one to select a particular track."
What does that mean?

There are events to play a whole album, add an album, or to add a particular track. You just have to toggle between "modes" with some kind of button. For instance in my skin, when you press the trackname of a song it adds to the playlist. IF you press the albumname then the whole album adds to the playlist. Is that what you are looking for?

I think I understand whet he means... he wants to start playing album from track nr. 5 until end...

You could do that by queing whole album, and then doing "next track" five times.... :-)

Or like in Colby's skin, start by selecting track 5 to start playing, then individually add the rest of the album to the playlist. Doesn't take to long to do.

I know it is a totally different animal, and I have no idea how it works or if there is a chance to look at it, but in the SageMC STV for sage, there is a "Play from here" option when you have a song hilited.

There is no one button event that will accomplish what you want (which is a fairly specialized need. I'm surprised someone went to the trouble of programming it in Sage). Dalanik and Marbles gave the two possible ways of doing it within Xlobby.
