Play only one track from playlist or cue

Started by ctin,

Hello,
Can I listen to only one song/track/subsong from a playlist or cue marks list in XMplay?
Is there a command line argument for this? For example: xmplay.exe "D:\DESKTOP\ok.mp3#mark1".
Or one DDE message?
Thank you.

You can do that by appending *<number> to the filename. For example: xmplay.exe "D:\DESKTOP\ok.mp3*1"

The same should work via DDE too.

Thank you very much. Works.
But by the name of the cue mark (title)? Who are PostMessage or SendMessage parameters?
But for playlists how is it done? For example: xmplay.exe "D:\DESKTOP\audio.pls*3" not work, for play item 3 from pls.
But for zip audio archives? For example: xmplay.exe "D:\DESKTOP\audio.zip*3" not work, for play item 3 from zip.

It isn't currently possible to refer to cues by their title, only their number. It also isn't possible to refer to a single playlist entry - you would need to extract the playlist entry yourself and pass that to XMPlay. It is possible to refer to a single file in an archive, but only by its filename, like this: xmplay.exe "D:\DESKTOP\audio.zip|filename.mp3"
