How to Play MP3 Files
Keywords: MP3
Question:
Is there a way to play MP3 files using Winbatch?Answer:
I play MP3's from Winbatch with the following code:
mpegName="path to mpeg file"
PlayMedia("open mpegvideo!%mpegName% alias music")
PlayMedia("play music")
You must have Windows Media player 2.0 or higher for this to work.
This code will wait for the song to complete before playing the next song.
dir = AskDirectory("Choose directory of songs to play", "", "", "", 0 )
DirChange(dir)
songlist = FileItemize( "*.mp3" )
count = ItemCount( songlist, @TAB )
For xx = 1 To count
song = ItemExtract( xx, songlist, @TAB )
PlayMedia('open mpegvideo!' : song : ' alias music')
PlayMedia("play music WAIT");Wait for song to complete
Next
Exit
