Dan, I never tried to get an album cover from iTunes in VB.
All I know is how to have the VB script returning a value in LiveCode, by using the variable "result". Try: Function getAlbumArt() Dim tAlbumArt tAlbumArt = "" result = cStr(iTunesApp.CurrentTrack.Artwork) End Function Best Regards, On Tue, Dec 13, 2016 at 5:36 PM, Dan Friedman <[email protected]> wrote: > Using the “Controlling iTunes” lesson > (http://lessons.livecode.com/m/2592/l/126614-controlling-itunes > <http://lessons.livecode.com/m/2592/l/126614-controlling-itunes>), I am able > to query iTunes and do everything I want.
