simple WPS with: BPM, playlist name, fairly large font?

(1/1)

surfer:
I have an iPod video 5.5.

Each of my mp3 songs has a BPM value in the id3v2-tag (calculated by a BPM Analyser).
I play my songs using playlists and i'm looking for a simple WPS with a fairly large font showing the following fields:

- BPM
- title & artist
- next song: title & artist
- name of the playlist

- volume as digits, time/time left, battery

There is no such thing as a bpm counter implemented yet. Neither is there support for id3 tag based bpm information, so showing the bpm won't be possible unless you code a bpm counter or the id3tag feature yourself.

does that mean you want somebody to code a wps for you or you just don't know where to look for wps's?
Gktxt and Ultima should meet your requirements i think.

surfer:
I do not need a BPM counter. Each of my mp3 songs has a BPM value in the id3v2-tag already (calculated by a BPM Analyser).

I know where to look for WPS and i've been using GKTXT for a long time.
A perfect thing for me would be the GKTXT extended by the "BPM" value on the screen and "next song: title & artist"

bpm is not listed there so, like i said, you will have to implement the reading of the bpm tag yourself, wait till someone else does it or find a different solution. you might transfer all the bpm values from the bpm tag to the comment tag and display that in the wps for example (the godfather is capable of doing things like that for a large collection of files).

I'm not apt enough to implement that and i need the "comment field" for a diiferent kind of info.

The thing would be a helpful feature for me but it's not so urgent that i won't be able to wait untill someone with the needed skill takes a look at that :-)
