Some questions: - by "adding to a particular playlist", I assume you mean you add it to a specific playlist, not the currently playing one, How do you do that (plugin, webUI ?). Does this playlist get saved in the process? Is the relevant song always added as the last one in the list? - should the destination always reflect the current playlist, or is this a one-off operation? - "copy a song to the separate directory": Just the file, or should the the directory structure be somehow mirrored (e.g. /source/artist - album/song.flac -> /dest/artist - album/song.flac or /source/artist - album/song.flac - /dest/song.flac) ? - does this copying have to be done immediately or periodically (e.g. once a day)? - what system is LMS running on?
Some thoughts: - there is a 'plugin' (https://www.nexus0.net/pub/sw/lmseventtrigger/) which can execute a script when a playlist is saved - the script could read the playlist and copy the file (e.g. the last entry added) SW: 'Web UI for LMS' (http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?98186-Announce-Alternative-Web-Interface-(beta)) | 'Playlist Editor / Generator' (http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?108199-Announce-LMS-Playlist-Editor) | 'Music Classification' (http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?108278-Announce-Essentia-Integration-music-classification-(moods-genres-)) | 'Similar Music' (http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?108495-Announce-LMSmusly-play-similar-music) | 'LMSlib2go' (https://www.nexus0.net/pub/sw/lmslib2go/) HowTos: 'build a self-contained LMS' (http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?99648-Howto-build-a-self-contained-LMS) | 'Ogg Opus' (http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?107011-Howto-play-Ogg-Opus-files) | 'Bluetooth/ALSA' (http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?107230-Howto-Bluetooth-streaming-to-from-LMS-(ALSA-only-no-PulseAudio)) ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Roland0's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=56808 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=111132 _______________________________________________ Squeezecenter mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/squeezecenter
