WPL

Do people really use that... ? :thumbsdown:

I need to find some WPL playlists to download then. I don't want to fire up WMP.

Fired it up. Made a WPL. It uses a weird format....

I can't use that format then... It looks at the info inside the files inside of holding it inside the playlist.

EDIT: I can't do FPL either. They use a format that ties into the bindings of foobar2000 and other thingies...

What does your program do? That playlist has a list of files that you can easily add and remove items from.

If the "..\" confuses you, that's just a relative path to the parent folder. You can substitute a full, literal path (ie: "C:\Users\Trident\Music\...") if you want.

If the playlist is in:

Code:

C:\Trident's Music\Playlists\playlist.wpl

Then the music is in:

Code:

C:\Trident's Music\Celine Dion\Shitty Album Name\01.mp3
C:\Trident's Music\Celine Dion\Shitty Album Name\02.mp3
C:\Trident's Music\Celine Dion\Shitty Album Name\03.mp3

Then the WPL can reference the files either way.

Relative paths from C:\Trident's Music\Playlists\:

Code:

..\Celine Dion\Shitty Album Name\01.mp3
..\Celine Dion\Shitty Album Name\02.mp3
..\Celine Dion\Shitty Album Name\03.mp3

Full paths:

Code:

C:\Trident's Music\Celine Dion\Shitty Album Name\01.mp3
C:\Trident's Music\Celine Dion\Shitty Album Name\02.mp3
C:\Trident's Music\Celine Dion\Shitty Album Name\03.mp3

The program I made takes playlist files and turns the information inside (Artist and name of song) into a HTML table.

Check the programming forum.

What's missing in a WPL playlist that the other playlist formats have?

Artist and name of the song. IT only holds file names.

TridenT · Jul 3, 2011

herp... need to find more things to program.

Also found out Java Applets are not going to work for me. I can't access local information from the client/user. So, if I wanted to read the information from some playlist file on their computer: No worky. So now I have to find a way to have them upload it to the server and then have the server tell the applet the location of the file then spit out the code and give the option of saving maybe?

that, or just have a client that runs on their system? jnlp perhaps

I have the program that works on their system with a simple GUI. It's just a jar file, but having it be embedded in a webpage sounds more useful.

I've never seen that in an M3U unless it happened to be part of the filename or folder structure.

Both winamp and iTunes save the M3u with the artist name and song.

Couldn't you check the tags on the actual files for artist and song title with the WPL and FPL?

Look at what this could be used for: Playlists and turning them into HTML. What if I have playlists from someone elses computer? I don't have access to their data. Similarly, using this on the cloud would run that impossible too. That would require immense access to their data, which is a huge security risk and not really doable.
