media jukebox8 link to media scheduler problem
« on: April 19, 2005, 11:59:50 am »

We are running mj8. on a windows 2000 box

I can get media scheduler to start mj8. but I need it to start a playlist.

There is no shortcut to start playlists in the custom tasks shortcut menu.
Can someone tell me how to figure out the path to the playlists? So I can write a new shortcut?
All my music is in C:/Music
Where do the playlists live?


Thanks,

theo mack

Ok, Looked at that:  Stil no Joy.

I schedule a custom task for a time and day.
In scheduler I have the following lines:
Command name:  Play Media File
Program Path: C:\Program Files\J River\Media Jukebox\mjextman.exe


Command Line: /Play C:\Music\mp3's\01 Jet.mp3

Is my syntax screwed up?
Isn't there a way to make it so you don't need to be a programer to work this thing?
Like drag and drop?

Make sure your complete command works from a DOS prompt.

Try a search here on the MJ board for mjextman.  You may find useful information.
