Moonrakerone Posted July 20, 2014 Share Posted July 20, 2014 Hello! I have sort of an ambitious project, and I'm a bit stumped. I have a tasker variable, %ARTIST, set that just constantly updates the currently playing artist. I would like to be able to have a task which simply plays all of that artist's music on my phone. I've hit a wall at sending the command to tasker. Using the following: Action : android.media.action.MEDIA_PLAY_FROM_SEARCHExtra : query: %ARTISTPackage : com.maxmpz.audioplayerTarget : Activity With tasker's Send Intent task, Poweramp will play the first song of the artist in alphabetical order, then play the rest of my library in alphabetical order. How can I tell Poweramp to play a specific(Varying) artist from tasker? (Posted here instead of general talk) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flyingdutchman Posted July 25, 2014 Share Posted July 25, 2014 I think your question is closely related to minehttp://forum.powerampapp.com/index.php?/topic/6381-how-to-launch-Poweramp-from-another-andoid-app-into-playing-an-m3u-playlist/Having looked at other music app intents, only google music works. I dont think Poweramp has the necessary intent handling. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
steviehs Posted August 12, 2014 Share Posted August 12, 2014 I am trying the same, but from my understanding the call should be: Action: com.maxmpz.audioplayer.API_COMMANDData: content://com.maxmpz.audioplayer/artists&flt=%ARTISTExtra: cmd:20Target: Service Unfortunately, this does also not work for me.I tested it with e.g. Data: content://com.maxmpz.audioplayer/artists&flt=foo Which started playing some songs (still not related at all to foo in the artists name)... At this point I am stuck... any hints? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
F43nd1r Posted December 14, 2014 Share Posted December 14, 2014 I know this is kinda old, but I just wanted to tell you what I've found out. First: you can query playing artist foo with content://com.maxmpz.audioplayer.data/files?flt=fooIt's even working for not exact input (e.g. "mind in a box" matches "mind.in.a.box")Second: this may fail if there are songs containing the artist name in title, because all results are played.So: it would also work for title or album queries Third: by looking into Playerservice.xml I found out, that content://com.maxmpz.audioplayer.data/artists/#/files would also work, but # seems to be an unique artist id, which I don't know how to find out.
