Vers 8 Pro User using Hercules Black skin.
Have successfully added the bpm to my skin (scrolling, after song title) by adding "%bpm" after the "%title" line in the xml file.
Trying to add the "song length" to the %artist line because my skin only shows elapsed and remaining.
I'm guessing it would be "format= %artist %?????" to add song length.
Anyone know what the "%" syntax is for song length?
Thanks,
Doug

The backtick/backquote in the skins xml file under format property will run vdj code so:
The following code will separate totaltime minutes and seconds with a colon
or like you asked to combine them with a space between the artist and the time
eq. Artist MM:SS
Though I'd probably put brackets around them
eq. Artist [MM:SS]
Side note: I personally like to use automix and use code like this to show the next songs title and total time:
and thinking too if Virtual DJ Script could cook hamburgers and deliver them to my booth i'd add the following to my skin
The following code will separate totaltime minutes and seconds with a colon
format="`get_totaltime_min`:`get_totaltime_sec`"
or like you asked to combine them with a space between the artist and the time
eq. Artist MM:SS
format= "%artist `get_totaltime_min`:`get_totaltime_sec`"
Though I'd probably put brackets around them
eq. Artist [MM:SS]
format= "%artist [`get_totaltime_min`:`get_totaltime_sec`]"
Side note: I personally like to use automix and use code like this to show the next songs title and total time:
format="Next Up: `get_automix_song 'title'` [`get_totaltime_min`:`get_totaltime_sec`]"
and thinking too if Virtual DJ Script could cook hamburgers and deliver them to my booth i'd add the following to my skin
format="`cook and deliver hamburger to my booth`" but hey can't a guy dream

Love that burger command! If only!!
Question: The code works ... BUT ... a song, whose 'seconds' are in the range "00" thru "09" - The code drops the leading zero.
Example: A song that is [5:09] in length displays as [5:9]. (no zero).
Do you know how to get the zero back?
Thanks!

use the get_loaded_song to get whatever field you want from the track..
format= "%artist `get_loaded_song 'length'`"
format= "%artist `get_loaded_song 'length'`"

According to https://www.virtualdj.com/wiki/Skin%20SDK%20Textzone.html you could have just used %time

If it's that easy, I may try to add rating in the scrolling info, too. Don't know if it will want "rating" or "stars" but I'll fiddle with it.
Love the ability to customize this stuff!

Rating will return an integer from 0 to 5
Stars will return... stars! (from none to 5 stars in a sequence)
Stars will return... stars! (from none to 5 stars in a sequence)
