Add file to Itunes com

Question

I saw the post (http://stackoverflow.com/questions/1585878/adding-song-to-itunes-with-c-sdk-api) about this, but following the link couldn't find any solid help.. Could someone point me in the right direction? Thanks, Max

Answer 1

Interacting with iTunes in C# isn't all that bad.

Step 1 Add a project reference to the iTunes.exe file in your Program Files directory. This will add a reference to iTunesLib.

Step 2 Create a new iTunesLib.iTunesAppClass instance.

Step 3 Use the iTunesAppClass.LibraryPlaylist.AddFile() method.

To ensure you aren't adding a duplicate file, you would have to check in the LibraryPlaylist.Tracks property to see if the file is already there. It's got a get_ItemByName() method you could try. If all else fails, you can just loop through the tracks to see if it's there.
