I have a drop down menu and a list of songs. The problem is that I don't know how to send the song they choose to an external MP3 that isnt on the computer, but is connected to it through the sound card. I can't figure out how to do this in JS. So how can I do this?

Choose a song from a website, that song plays on an external MP3 player that is connected to the computer's sound card. I need it this way bc my teacher has a harddrive speaker system where the music that is being played by the mp3 player (no sound comes from the mp3) it plays off the harddrives (which is where the sound comes from) xD

computer = server

If its on the server, just put it in the directory that is set as the website one.

Thats as much as I got, sorry. :nuts: I don't really understand what you want. :eek:

Lol, I understand its confusing :eek:
I don't even think what I want is possible... :(

Drop Down Menu on Site ---> triggers Script to make external MP3 Player (Connected via sound card) play picked song (in variable array and using onchange="" event) which would play the sound from the microphone near the mp3 player and show the harddrives playing.


You have to be here to understand... I guess.

You could use PHP, and fsocksopen, and then make a TCP server on the computer, that knows how to use the MP3 players Interface...

Thats the only way, though.

EDIT:
If the files are ON THE COMPUTER, It would be fairly easy, and I would be willing to make a program to run it, but I can't do it if its on an MP3 player. :)

Yes, the files are on the server and not the MP3

JS can be used with the file:// protocol, i guess... Say, if the files are in "c:/music/", you could use "file://c:/music/song.mp3" in some way... Maybe as bgmusic on the page?
Sorry if i misunderstood you!

Off topic, what language would you use DDRtists?

I will be using the recorded music that is near the harddrives as background music, but I want the song to play through the external MP3 Player

Does the server have PHP?

Yes, It's WAMP xD

No, "now" was the correct word... Try reading the question again, without it:D

I still don't get want your asking. :p

"Does the MP3 player support TCP?"
"Have you added TCP support to the MP3 Player?"

Maybe I'm just stupid. :nuts:

How do you suppose, that the mp3 player can use tcp?
I'm starting to think this isn't your intentions, so I can somewhat guess the answer...

Haha, I would make the TCP server open up a winamp or WMP window, playing the sound. ;)

Because he said from the internet, I believe, therefor you would have to tell the server some how, and that how being from PHP --> the TCP server. ;P

Hmm... Think it's a pretty good approach now when i finally understand!

    How can you tell the difference between real traffic and indexing or AI generation bots?
  • The Helper The Helper:
    The bots will show up as users online in the forum software but they do not show up in my stats tracking. I am sure there are bots in the stats but the way alot of the bots treat the site do not show up on the stats

  • Varine Varine:
    I want to build a filtration system for my 3d printer, and that shit is so much more complicated than I thought it would be
  • Varine Varine:
    Apparently ABS emits styrene particulates which can be like .2 micrometers, which idk if the VOC detectors I have can even catch that
  • Varine Varine:
    Anyway I need to get some of those sensors and two air pressure sensors installed before an after the filters, which I need to figure out how to calculate the necessary pressure for and I have yet to find anything that tells me how to actually do that, just the cfm ratings
  • Varine Varine:
    And then I have to set up an arduino board to read those sensors, which I also don't know very much about but I have a whole bunch of crash course things for that
  • Varine Varine:
    These sensors are also a lot more than I thought they would be. Like 5 to 10 each, idk why but I assumed they would be like 2 dollars
  • Varine Varine:
    Another issue I'm learning is that a lot of the air quality sensors don't work at very high ambient temperatures. I'm planning on heating this enclosure to like 60C or so, and that's the upper limit of their functionality
  • Varine Varine:
    Although I don't know if I need to actually actively heat it or just let the plate and hotend bring the ambient temp to whatever it will, but even then I need to figure out an exfiltration for hot air. I think I kind of know what to do but it's still fucking confusing
  • The Helper The Helper:
    Maybe you could find some of that information from AC tech - like how they detect freon and such
  • Varine Varine:
    That's mostly what I've been looking at
  • Varine Varine:
    I don't think I'm dealing with quite the same pressures though, at the very least its a significantly smaller system. For the time being I'm just going to put together a quick scrubby box though and hope it works good enough to not make my house toxic
  • Varine Varine:
    I mean I don't use this enough to pose any significant danger I don't think, but I would still rather not be throwing styrene all over the air

    I bitch about Xenforo sometimes but it really is full featured you just have to really know what you are doing to get the most out of it.
  • The Helper The Helper:
    It is just not easy to fix styles and customize but it definitely can be done
  • The Helper The Helper:
    I do know this - xenforo dropped the ball by not keeping the vbulletin reputation comments as a feature. The loss of the Reputation comments data when we switched to Xenforo really was the death knell for the site when it came to all the users that left. I know I missed it so much and I got way less interested in the site when that feature was gone and I run the site.
