Get Duration in Minutes; Seconds?

[Jesse]

Hey all,

I started working on a simple music player sometime at the end of 2006, but I never really got too far. Now, I plan to finish it, but I have a couple of questions.

First off, is there anyway to have a timer that actually goes off the duration of the song in question? It seems to go my milliseconds, and I can get it to show each second pass by using:

Always
-Set Counter: Set Counter to ( "Direct Show" ) / 1000

Thing is, once it passes 60, it keeps going. I want it to make it look like a minute once it hits 60.

Secondly, is there any way of showing ID3 tag info as a text string?

Finally, any way to make a good progress bar?

Thanks in advance guys.

progress bar object ?
Or if you mean a slider progress bar, custom scroll bar object

Make a string instead of a counter and set it to:
str$(timer / 3600000) + ":" + left$("00",2-len(str$((timer / 60000) mod 60))) + str$((timer / 60000) mod 60) + ":" + left$("00",2-len(str$((timer / 1000) mod 60))) + str$((timer / 1000) mod 60)
(looks kinda complex :P)
Replace timer with whatever expression you use to get the song time

Thanks Werbad.

neat_Kliker2, guess I should have been more specific, but I typed it up in a rush because I was lacking sleep.

I mean like a seek marker. Anyway to get that done? if so, that'd be pretty awesome.

Also, it seems that ID3 tag info can't be gathered, correct?

Use the ID3 Object

Didn't know one existed, thanks! 8D

Well, this should be MUCH easier. :]
