I've started working on a controller web page using the Media Server services, so far all working well and I can play, pause, increase volume, show current track.

However what I would like to be able to do is pass through a file id (returned from the Playlist function) and then go to another service to look up the specific file information so I can show the current playlist on the screen.  Is it possible to use the Search facility to search by file id?

Also are there services available to add/remove tracks to/from a playlist and also create a new playlist?

Cheers

Is it possible to use the Search facility to search by file id?

Our search language supports [Key]=[...] (i.e. [Key]=[1234]) to find a file.

It might also be good to have a File/GetInfo type function that returns artist, album, and any other metadata.

Also are there services available to add/remove tracks to/from a playlist and also create a new playlist?

Not currently.  What functions do you propose?

Thanks.

Hi Matt

Thanks for the reply.  I've got this now working with this example: http://localhost:52199/MCWS/v1/Files/Search?Query=([Key]=[890])&Output=mpl

I'm guessing [Key] can be replaced with any other item in the return values such as [Media Type] etc or are their only certain fields that can be searched on?

With regards to other functionality it would be good to be able to:

• Create a new playlist
• Add a track to a playlist
• Delete a track from a playlist
• Delete a playlist
• Get Album Info (including cover image link)

Cheers
