How to pass info to spider when not on music page

Postby edgley on Sun Feb 20, 2005 11:58 pm

Hi,

I would like to have an over layer for cd cover art finding on my cd import page rather than the music page.

I have a ripping page based on the cdex plugin.

Once I have ripped the cd, how do i pass the info to my spider overlay please?

thanks.

Currently you could have a event that refreshes the music database after its done ripping, but one big problem is having that album automatically selected for the spider to download info/coverart for.

When Steven first made that plugin, I had asked him about this, and he said it wasn't possible right now, but he might look into it someday...

This would be a good feature request, but I'm not sure if it would be more of a xlobby or cdex plugin addition tho...

I have got round the problem by putting a category to the database onto the ripping page.

Now you just need to refresh and you can at least get cover art all from the same page.
