+---Topic: Command line switches from Shell Extension started by Pealy


Posted by: Pealy on Jan. 30 2006,14:35

I'd like to be able to mimic the behaviour of right clicking and choosing to update tags from filenames from my MP3 manager software. Basically I'd like to add a button which will update all the tracks in a directory.

Is there a reference which will tell me how to generate the command line with the appropriate switches or is there a way of working this out from the shell extensions?

I sawa post which briefly mentioned the switches but not the ones I need.

Thanks in advance

The shell extension only uses command-lines for GUI-related tasks in Mp3/Tag Studio (open file and open dir), for everything else it is stand-alone.

But yes, there is a command-line reference for all valid command-line switches (including the ones that the shell extension uses) inside the normal Mp3/Tag Studio helpfile, simply search for "command-line" in the index and you will see it there.

A good starting tip:
The basic idea of the command-line functionality is that for all advanced operations you simply first record a macro, and then execute this macro from the command-line.
end
