Apps Dynamic Music Player 3.3

[Skillfinger]

I have not looked into modding content manager, if that's even possible. But i guess that could be a not-so-hard to implement base feature as well, similar to how you can mod background images. I'll ask x4fab about it.

Did you ask him, and did he answer?

Did you ask him, and did he answer?

Content Manager is pretty much in maintenance mode and he's not adding new features to it... At least that's the answer I got back then.

Damgam updated Dynamic Music Player with a new update entry:

3.1 Cover Art and Car Production Year Filter

- Added tags which allow you to disable specific music tracks depending on production year of the car, ranging from 1900 to 2030.
- Added new system which allows you to add cover-art for music, with 2 search modes, more strict (full match of the track names) or less strict (partial match).
Unfortunately i'm not able to dig out the cover art from audio file itself, so there's some work you have to do to get it to function.

Hi Damgam, thanks for your nice app! I've a question; It's possible to link specific music file with specific car? I made a mod with all famous movies and TV series Cars and I'd like to automatically switch soundtrack when I change camera player. Thanks in Advance

Easily, no, but with some ExternalMusicPath trickery, YES!
right above the `return FoldersList`, but below the whole FoldersList table, you can add something like

if ac.getCarID(0) == "ks_audi_r8_lms_2016" then
   FoldersList.Race[#FoldersList.Race+1] = "X:/folder/folder/anotherfolder/theresmusicinthisfolder"
end

To add a folder to the playlist based on you driving this specific car!

Though that won't update based on which car you're looking at, only by which car is "yours". Can't do dynamic stuff here.

Thank you, this was not what I think firstly but Is fabulous!

Yeah I know, Just pointing out what's possible
You can really do some extra magic with this config file if you know what you're doing .

 

[Damgam]

In next update, I'm gonna expand the cover art system with a bit more tools for you to use, like new config file where you can manually assign cover files to song titles, so you don't have to make multiple copies of the same image, as well as allowing you to override false partial matches with either blank (default) image or with another.

Damgam updated Dynamic Music Player with a new update entry:

3.2 - Ingame Tracks List + Cover Art improvements

- Added new CoverArt config which allows you to manually match songs with cover arts. Instructions how to use it are included in the file, works in similar way as ExternalMusicPaths config
- Added new tab in the settings app, which allows you to look through your playlist, play track you want or copy it's display name to clipboard (to help with Cover Art setup)
- Additionally, the above comes with a Queue function, allowing you to manually queue up tracks to play next. Might be useful if you...

In Foobar2k it's possible to fetch MetaData from MusicBrainz and there are Skins that make it possible to have Cover Art downloaded as Folder.JPG or PNG and the Disc or Vinyl as CD.JPG or PNG that spins. Maybe you could hook that if you want a more sophisticated implementation.

I'm clueless how to hook up an external API to this, if it's even possible (Pure gets data from some online weather API so, I guess?), but that's a cool idea for consideration if that would be possible

Yes, I've had it configured to fetch the MetaData from MusicBrain.org. If digitizing from a Redbook CD then using the Exact Audio Copy and their freedb. Images I scraped from FanArt.tv they have a great API that works for Kodi and has Movies, TV Shows and Music (so they have QA on Community Content Uploaded). The Music Section goes by Unique IDs from MusicBrainz to then have CoverArt, properly Transparent CDs or Vinyls etc. to each Release. You can get an API Hook to FanArt.tv for free and is described on their Website/Discord. I'm using the manual mode so I just scrape the images and put them labled properly into each of my individual Album Folders - Foobar2k or WMP then pick it up when played from Library.

You're welcome. I hope it satisfies your needs.
I've spent 2 days collecting cover arts and assigning them to music... Took a while, but it's working perfectly now for my music list. 3.2 with the config file definitely helps a ton. Just beware not to overwrite it while updating the app.

Damgam updated Dynamic Music Player with a new update entry:

3.3 - A few fixes.

- Added new toggle to Music List, to hide all music that has cover art, to make it easier to find tracks that are still missing it.
- Queue is now ignored when finish music is supposed to play.
- Removed the option that prevented certain tracks from playing more often than others. I've realised that the data.ini file gets completely messed up with tracks that use [ ] in the filename. I might reintroduce this feature with better implementation in the future.

is it possible to just load cover art that is already embedded in the mp3 file? i feel it's a bit tedious having to save every cover art for all my music when the mp3 i have already comes with one.

Trust me, that was the first thing i've tried. Unfortunately the library in Custom Shaders Patch doesn't support that.

Is there any way you can change the font?
