WSDL - Get non-playing track info
« on: July 28, 2010, 07:02:39 am »

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

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.

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
