previous albumart
previous albumart
I want to make a jpg with EXEC_WRITE_JPEG_FILE from previous, now and next. Now and next are ok. But I don't get a previous jpg
what's wrong
EXEC_WRITE_JPEG_FILE C:\WebPlayer\pre.jpg|${02albumart}|200
EXEC_WRITE_JPEG_FILE C:\WebPlayer\now.jpg|0|200
EXEC_WRITE_JPEG_FILE C:\WebPlayer\next.jpg|1|200
what's wrong
EXEC_WRITE_JPEG_FILE C:\WebPlayer\pre.jpg|${02albumart}|200
EXEC_WRITE_JPEG_FILE C:\WebPlayer\now.jpg|0|200
EXEC_WRITE_JPEG_FILE C:\WebPlayer\next.jpg|1|200
Re: previous albumart
Very simple: ${02albumart} is not a valid macro. For all available macros, please see the Appendix of the user manual.
However, the EXEC_WRITE_JPEG_FILE contains the following parameters: filename[|what[|size]]
filename: denotes the full path to a .jpg file
from: can be '0'=current track (default), '1'=next track, 'A'=current player A, 'B'=current player B, 'C'=current player C, 'D'=current player D
size: defines the quadratic with/height (default is 200)
As you can see, there is no option to specify a previous track. However, this can be cached by your application or web-site you are sending the data to, as you typically fire this command with every new track, a previous albumart has already been send and cannot change afterwards, that's why there is no option for this.
