Hello everyone!

I'm working on a QML D2 mod where data is sent through an API via POST using Javascript.

What I'm trying to achieve is to get Traktor's file browser data so I can replicate the current playlist on a remote screen. The data will be accessible through a web app on an iPad, mostly for feedback purposes (so I'm not staring at the computer when selecting a track while on stage).

Is there a way to get the current playlist data and the index of the selected track in the browser, sent via POST every time it changes? (maybe in a json format?)

Besides that, which would be the command to tell Traktor to "load the track on X playlist at Y index"? Or maybe there's a way to load files from an absolute path instead?

Basically, I'm trying to emulate the browsing capabilities of a D2 but in a web app.

I'm a software engineer but I'm lost on how to deal with QML files to achieve this.

I appreciate any feedback, thank you!

    Looking forward to it. Will you release the source code at some point?

    I found the solution.

    I just noticed this post today🙃

    Maybe we can help you, but only if it's an open source project?

    @lord-carlos asked about it on my GitHub.

    I think you could get the entire current playlist from the Traktor.Browser object, but I haven’t found a reason to try it myself.

    I don’t think there’s a way to load a track from a different playlist without switching to it first.

    Hi, I'm new to qml and wanted to know if it would be possible to use the speech api of the chrome browser to get speech feedback of traktors track browser a little like the mallmuzik addon for vdj.

    I've done a few speech & midi web apps to prototype different accessible ideas on my youtube channel @johnsexton8082

    any help or advice is very welcome

    How can I have the currently selected browser tree item and currently selected playlist track data sent as json to a web browser?
