winamp comand line argument: Play

[kblindberg]

Hi,

I'm trying to make a small script.

I wish to open winamp, thus, making it open at the last played file, then play it, and make winamp continue, where it left of

I am able to start winamp by typing,

code:
start C:\Programmer\Winamp\winamp.exe

in a .bat-file, but does anyone know, if it is possible to also make winamp start playing.

(appending file/playlist path will not solve my problem)

Hope it made sense :P

try using

C:\Programmer\Winamp\winamp.m3u

instead.

You COULD.

Or, you download DrO's great Time Restore and Autoplay plugin. It'll do the job for you.

Download the lastest version here, it works great.

I COULD, yeah,
but, if it is possible to get the job done, without a plugin, I would prefere this.

Hey, every man to his own profession.

there are no commmand-line options to do what you want since winamp natively will not restore playback and playback state/position. it's either write a plugin or a loader .exe to do it

well, when I open winamp, it displays my last played file in last used playlist.
all I needed was to simulate a press of the play-button.

but if there's no way to do this, through the command-line, I'll just leave it as it is.

thanks for the replies
