Title: Text Fields in Visualiziation
Post by: StFeder on November 07, 2007, 05:56:37 pm

Is it possible to get a list of the supported fields for Visualizations?

I'm trying to get the comment field to be shown up in a Visualization created with the "Visualization Studio" of MC using a text field. But it doesn't work. I'm going to use this feature at a ballroom party to have the dance (e.g. slow waltz, rumba) shown up on an second monitor. This party will be the saturday after the next so I'm afraid it may be impossible to find a solution for that via MC...

i guess this would be possible when you make a html trackinfo. you could combine that with a visualization. bit more work though.

edit. yes it is easy to make an html with comment in it. just tried it. could be the last straw.  ;)

I thought about this, but I'm not familiar with html. And I don't see a reason why the comment field can't be used in a visualization. Is it my fault or is it by design (some kind of bug maybe)? And if it's by design (up to now I think it must be a mistake of mine...), are any other text-fields containing user generated content except Artist, Album and Title possible within a visualization? If so, I perhaps could use a workaround (flip fields e.g.).

Anyway: Thanks for your hint, I wasn't sure if it is possible with html.
