hi
when i do this " mpc,load, Mp3 " it works and load the new play list but can,t get it play and clear the old list
I tried this as well but don`t seem to work
mpc,clear,load, Mp3 ,play
mpc,clear, mpc,load,Mp3, play
any ideas
thanks
Put the commands in a script file /home/pi/myscript.sh
mpc clear
mpc load Mp3
mpc play
Then specify the script file in the CMD field
/home/pi/myscript.sh
Remember to mark the script file as executable
sudo chmod +x /home/pi/myscript.sh
And put a shebang as the first line
#!/bin/bash

Thank you for your reply Tim
i am bit confused I have 2 play list one call "Radio" and the other call "MP3"
I see you shown me how to do myscript but how would i go back to "Radio" playlist
if i press the second button would i have to make another myscript to go back to Radio
You could have the script accept an input argument.
myscript.sh Mp3
myscript.sh Radio
In the script $1 represents the first input argument. You would use the command below instead of mpc load Mp3
mpc load $1
Button 1 CMD field = /home/pi/myscript.sh,Mp3
Button 2 CMD field = /home/pi/myscript.sh,Radio
