Author Topic: is there a way to extract current track position/elapsed time?  (Read 3635 times)

Does anybody know how I can pull the current track position/time elapsed from Media Jukebox 8?

I am trying to use Autohotkey and SendMessage commands and can't figure out the correct parameters. If this is not possible with Autohotkey is there another method? The current track position is displayed at the bottom left side of the player (example: "0:27 / 5:09"). All I'm trying to do is get the position of the current track, the "0:27", at any given time, so I can process it in an AutoHotKey script I am working on, and I'm stumped.

Any help or pointing in the right direction would be appreciated, thanks!

I don't know anything about media jukebox, but this is doable with the MC web service interface on current versions of MC (it looks like it was introduced in MC14?).  Is there a MCWS equivalent for Jukebox?
