I'm opening it with quicktime to render the jpg+.mp3 to a video

Or if you know a better way tell me heheh

Yes, actually i have been using quictime because it will render the .jpg and the .mp3 to a video. I wish there was a way of doing that through the command line. The script didn't work. By the way it was good that you mentioned that "start" command, it just starts and wont pass the control ...

Cool, so %%~DPa refers to a variable directory path. Hey, i started reading about dos batch and commands etc. I'm trying to make this new script, please take a look: --------------------------------------------------------------- @echo on PUSHD E:\ CD "E:\SONGS\ CDS" FOR /D %%a in ("...

Hi, the zip extractor worked perfectly.

I'm getting onto a new phase of that thing i want to do. I'm trying to find out what exactly each of those commands and variables does or represent.

What does the %%~dpa means???

Try this version: EDITED: @echo off pushd "c:\files" for /f "delims=" %%a in ('dir *.html /b /s') do ( pushd "%%~dpa" for /f "delims=" %%b in ( 'type "%%a" ^| geturls ^| findstr /i ".jpg mp3.zip"' ) do ( if /i %%~xb==.jpg if not exist *.jp...

Okay. I copied the already downloaded CD's to another folder. This code works. It's not downloading files that alredy exists. However it seems it only downlods .jpg files. What could be wrong? Or maybe it will download first all .jpg then after all zip? I don't understand about it but i removed the ...

Using new version. It shows this: File Not Found Press any key to continue . . . The actual directory is e:\ektoplazm\cds. But of course i'm changing the directory you gave me c:\files to the right one. So i think it's cool. It should have printed more than that. You can right click and mark and co...

Hi, i updated the above!

Using new version. It shows this: File Not Found Press any key to continue . . . The actual directory is e:\ektoplazm\cds. But of course i'm changing the directory you gave me c:\files to the right one. So i think it's cool. About the folder, i think it's okay if it extracts in the same folder as t...

Cool! It still downloading the file, but now with the same name, instead of *1.zip. I think it will overwrite. Saving to: `12 Moons - Solid State - 2004 - MP3.zip'<-this one already exists I'm still testing, so, i still don't really know which would be better. In the same folder or different folder...

There is a little issue. It is going in alphabetical order, that's okay, but then i realized it jumped some links, it said unknown host. I don't know. I think my internet was down or something. I had to restart, okay, but then it is downloading everything again. Saving as *1.zip file. I don't need ...

One thing i forgot: is it possible to change the save directory? Since they will download one by one i think it's better if they are all in a same folder.

It worked!! it's downloading!! Sir you really got skills. While searching the geturls.zip i accidentaly found a post of you and it was written at 2005. You must really have alot of experience on that area!!! Do you think it's possible for me to learn how to do those, in the future, without asking fo...

That looks like magic! Okay, so i have to download that GetUrl.zip and the WGET for windows? I read before about this wget, i alredy downloaded. It needs to be at the c:\windows right? Would you please post a link for geturl.zip??? I've found different results and i don't know which is the right on...

Oh! Yes! I'm sorry! Would it help if i paste it here? Look, the <IMG SRC> link will be always a cd-name-with-words-separated-by-a-hyphen300x300.jpg and the files i need to download is the 20-%20MP3.zip"> Here it is: Permanent Link to 12 Moons &#8211; Solid State">12 Moons &#8211; ...
