Feature: Infos about the current track #3

Open mischah opened 8 years ago

First step would be a new command like info. Showing track title, Album etc.

It's a shame the script interface for iTunes 12 makes this info nowhere to be found. For my own selfish purposes, I wait with bated breath to see if you find a solution.

This should be possible:

I haven't been able to find a working solution to this issue.

This should be possible

Could you elaborate? I don't understand what you are pointing at with that screenshot. Thanks!

josefdlange commented 8 years ago

He's referring in the screenshot to the FileTrack object and how it supposedly has a bunch of attributes, visible in the lower part of the screenshot.

My response refers to my experience that this documentation he's referring to is invalid documentation, because it would seem Apple bundles the same script def with iTunes from versions past and hasn't keep the app up-to-date in supporting it.

@josefdlange Okay, thanks for the explanation! :)
