The currently playing track & revMobile

[Thomas McGrath III]

Terry,

Although it is possible to 'get' the current track info from obj-c  but I very much doubt that LiveCode will have that same level of access. 

We need an external pass through for revMobile that will let us do calls to these libraries.

For example: the app records the title & artist of the currently playing track to a text file on the iPod, along with the data I would like to add/modify. When connected to the Mac, an AppleScript could process that text file to make the changes to the corresponding track(s) in iTunes.
