wildcards |
|
|
When using visual basic to run wmp, I would like to
search albums using a wildcard (such as - select any
albums containing the string: 'Songs of the')
Unfortunately, I cannot get wmp to recognise wildcards
(such as *)in my playlist searches.
Is it possible to use wildcards??
Thanks

I do not believe this is possible directly. You can, however, do stuff like
this in an autoplaylist and is how I achieved this functionality in my C++
app. Just create a auto playlist with what you want to search for, then load
it into WMP as a file based playlist and it should contain all the songs that
meet your criteria when it loads.
