Looking for a specific type of plugin that previews songs

tamar · 15th July 2008, 01:08

Hi, I'm trying to find a plugin or option that lets me "scan" through my music library and lets me specify the amount of time I can play a song (e.g. 30 seconds rather than the entire length of the song). Does something like that exist? Thanks.

btw, on a related note, is there a similar plugin that will let you specify how much time into a song that it actually starts? for example, i might want to start 15 sec into it rather than the beginning. thanks!

Apparently this same plugin will do that.

Yep. It appears that Wally is correct. Although I've never used (and have no need for) using anything like this, and therefore can't tell you anything about the plugin myself, here is the image depicted on this page at the author's site...

As you can see when you look at the image above, you can set a start point at either a relative position (percentage), or after a certain amount of seconds have elapsed (which is what you want to do)...

hmm, I have v1.0 and that doesn't offer it. Gonna have to find 1.3 (and I just did, thanks)
