All I am trying to do is create a songData object and add it to the Now Playing list and play it.

I can not for the life of me figure out how to do it.

Any help would be GREATLY appreciated.

ALso, I don't see any Events in the SDK. Are there events?

I'm not sure if you tried the latest 2.3 beta version, you should be able to achieve this there.

There are events for scripts, also in 2.3 there come support for standard COM events.

Let us know if you miss anything else there.

P.S.: The latest COM/scripting objects help is at http://www.mediamonkey.com/beta/MediaMo ... ipting.chm

I downloaded the beta and now see the NewSongData method...

I did figure out how to select a song and add it to the "Now Playing" and play it.

I looked thru thehelp file again and only see a couple of events and they all deal with things like treenodes. I was hoping there was events for the player itself. Like when a song begins, or ends...

My last question is is there a property or method to return me the current play time? I looked thru the sdbProgress, but that doesn't seem to be what I need...

Thanks for your help.

Curently MM do not return Current play time within script, it is on To-Do.

It will be possible to access playback time from scripts in the next release.
