Questions / Re: How to send midi control based on genre in "now playing" track ?

Hello,

There is no one who sends commands outside of musicbee depending on the genre of the track that starts to be played?

no script? no plugin? 

Even triggering a powershell script by musicbee with the genre in parameter would work for me.

The existing mb_SongHistory plugin, which logs the history of played tracks could have been suitable, if it logged the genre in its file

Thank you and sorry for my bad english.

Questions / How to send midi control based on genre in "now playing" track ?

« on: January 18, 2023, 11:17:35 AM »

Hello,
I'm starting to use musicbee and I'm delighted with the theater mode which allows me to display on a large screen the genre of the music being played.

It is very useful for ballroom activities
I would like to increase the effect by remotely controlling the light effects depending on the genre of the music being played.

I would need musicbee to produce midi controls depending on the "now playing" genre, I could automatically change the atmosphere of the room depending on whether a tango or a salsa is being played. I use QLC+ to program spotlights via DMX. QLC+ can receive MIDI control

I don't know how to do. I asked chatGPT who offered me a solution using a MIDI control plugin.

Unfortunately this plugin does not/no longer exists on the getmusicbee site

Do you have a solution that can be used with the latest version of musicbee?

Thanks very much
