i've been working on a skin and got stuck with file info. so i looked at vdj script.. didn't understand any of that stff.. and vdj 4,5,6 syntax from various skins.
conclusion: vdj can very easily display all file info in the library, however it does not support so on the deck.
file name, file path, id3 album, id3 year, id3 track, id3 genre, file size, and bit rate are not available.
interestingly enough comment is.. curious to know why that is.. anyways..
if u find the time, please add in these items for skin creation via vdj 6 syntax.. i'm not getting this vdj script.. sorry.
thanks,
dj shahar

VDJ6 syntax is VDJScript. All new syntaxes will be via VDJScript - the old % format is deprecated so I can't see anything being added to it. Luckily getting information via VDJScript is easy. These are textzone values for all the things you wanted to dislay:
`get loaded_song 'filename'`
`get loaded_song 'filepath'`
`get loaded_song 'album'`
`get loaded_song 'year'`
`get loaded_song 'title'`
`get loaded_song 'genre'`
`get loaded_song 'filesize'`
`get loaded_song 'bitrate'`
These do however use the database values rather than ID3 values, but with good database management this shouldn't be an issue - especially since they are often initially read via ID3 anyway.
`get loaded_song 'filename'`
`get loaded_song 'filepath'`
`get loaded_song 'album'`
`get loaded_song 'year'`

`get loaded_song 'genre'`

`get loaded_song 'bitrate'`

thanks scott.
would u please give me an example of vdj script for textzone..
an image will do very nicely. i just need that jump start and i'll do the rest.
i couldn't even assign vdj scipt to play pause channel 1.
the purpose of this skin is for a vdj with out a d.b. to compare 2 files. i use amps mm as my library. tagscanner as my editor and vdj as my music comparer

Use the above syntax by placing it into the format=" ......." element
Note, this is a VDJ Script ver 7, so you have to create a version 7 Skin.

<size width="198" height="14"/>
<up x="1060" y="5612"/>
<text font="arial" size="14" align="left" weight="normal" color="#d1d3d9" format="`get browsed_song 'comment'`"/>
</textzone>
<pos x="1060" y="930"/>
<size width="198" height="14"/>
<up x="1060" y="5612"/>
<text font="arial" size="14" align="left" weight="normal" color="#d1d3d9" format="`get browsed_song 'comment'`"/>
