File move ?

[Ingo]

try to put " around it.... "//MEDIA/DISK4/MY MUSIC" should do it.

I'm still looking for a solution to delete MP3 files I don't want. The best (safest) way to do this would be to move the actual playing file to a different directory (e.g. \\media\MP3 trash).

I discovered that DVDspy can obtain the playing file name. So I can copy that to a [treg], start playing the next file, but how can I move [treg] ? Is there a way to do this?

Yes this is old :oops: .

Your proposal to use a batch file does work, although with some limitation :) ;

I'm playing from a large media server so the file name gets //MEDIA/DISK4/MY MUSIC/song.mp3. When I use the batch file it forgets the part after //MEDIA/DISK4/MY.

To go around this I mapped a network drive to //MEDIA/DISK4/MY MUSIC and then it works :D .

Thanks for your tip (although I still would like not to see the DOS window :wink: )

oops, there is a second problem. Any file name with spaces don't work :x

Eh...this is sort of a voice from the past (waaaay past), but how about using DOS? Create the batchfile trash.bat with one line:

move %1 d:\mp3trash

And then use execute with the command "trash.bat" and the statement "filname.mp3". Or am I complicating things? Can you just use use execute and the command "move" with the variable filename?

Or am I totally stoned? You never know... 8)
