MusicButler (New skin in 0.7)
Click to enlarge
The dropdown menu for music files (old skin)
MusicButler
MusicButler is a simple addon that you can use to choose what music files you want to listen. It has a simple dropdown menu for all the music files in WoW, sorted like the WoW folder structure. It also has LibDataBroker support.

You can add music to the favourites list (yes, I know it's British) by shift-clicking it in the list. you can remove music from the favourites the same way.

There is no configuration, you can move the frame with the right mouse button.

The addon is in the test phase, so many features will be implemented later.

Latest changes:
v0.8
- LibDataBroker! Woohoo!
- Some cleanup, removed unnecessary files
- Added Key Bindings to toggle music and to show/hide the main frame.

Upcoming features:
- Configuration
- More Skins
- Continuous play (?)
- Playlists (?)
- ...

Known issues:
- Sometimes, like when zoning in to an instance, wow starts playing the zone's music and the AddOn's music stops. The addon still shows as "playing".
- Showing/Hiding the frame depending on last setting on login seems to be broken. I'm on it.

If you add the following to the MusicFiles.lua file, you'll be able to hear the Brewfest music.

Code:
["BrewFest"] = {
		"BrewFest",
		"BF_Dwarves1.mp3",
		"BF_Dwarves2.mp3",
		"BF_Dwarves3.mp3",
		"BF_Goblins1.mp3",
		"BF_Goblins2.mp3",
		"BF_Goblins3.mp3",
	},
Also if you want to play the new music from patch 3.2 add this aswell:

Code:
["ArgentColiseum"] = {
		"ArgentColiseum",
		"CR_TourneyBattle01UniWalk.mp3",
		"CR_TourneyBattle02UniWalk.mp3",
		"CR_TourneyBattle03UniWalk.mp3",
		"CR_TourneyBattle04UniWalk.mp3",
		"CR_TourneyBattle05UniWalk.mp3",
		"CR_TourneyBattle06UniWalk.mp3",
	},
Hope that helps.

Any plans for adding a option to specifically play a tune when enter different zones? kinda like how MusicTheme is, but it's outdated.

EDIT: And also if you're able to make a option/function to randomize specific tracks when you change zone.

I'm running the enGB version of the game client, if that could be of any help in dealing with the "problem".


Also, this AddOn needs the Brewfest music.

Sound\\Music\\ZoneMusic\\BrewFest\\BF_Dwarves1.mp3
Sound\\Music\\ZoneMusic\\BrewFest\\BF_Dwarves2.mp3
Sound\\Music\\ZoneMusic\\BrewFest\\BF_Dwarves3.mp3
Sound\\Music\\ZoneMusic\\BrewFest\\BF_Goblins1.mp3
Sound\\Music\\ZoneMusic\\BrewFest\\BF_Goblins2.mp3
Sound\\Music\\ZoneMusic\\BrewFest\\BF_Goblins3.mp3

Nope, this is not the purpose if the addon. Also it needs an external program to edit the lua dynamically. For those needs, see Simple MP3 Player.

Edit: I don't have any problems with "Musical Moments" category. Anyone else having this issue?

For some reason, everything in the Musical Moments category seems to be silent.

"GuldansEntranceTheme", "ZulGurubVoodoo", "SP_TempleOfStormsActionUni01" and everything in the "mystery" category works well and without any trouble, but everything else in the Musical Moments category is just dead silent (Sacred, angelic, gloomy, battle, haunted, magic, etc.).

If you want to play your own Mp3's it takes some time and copies of your music files.

1.) Go into your WoW Directory (ex. C:\Program Files\World of Warcraft)
2.) Make a folder called: Sound
3.) Go into that folder make another folder called: Music
4.) Go into that folder and make another folder called: GlueScreenMusic
5.) COPY any music you want to play ingame and paste into this folder.
*I said COPY due to the fact that you may lose all your music files if something happens to WoW or whatever best to just copy them.
6.) Now comes the boring long part you have to rename all your music files to not include spaces (ex. On the Precipice of Defeat.mp3 ---> On_the_Precipice_of_Defeat.mp3)
7.) Once you have all that done goto your MusicButler addon folder (ex. C:\Program Files\World of Warcraft\Interface\AddOns\MusicButler)
8.) Open the file: MusicFiles.lua
9.) Look at the top you will see:
Code:
["GlueScreenMusic"] = {
	"GlueScreenMusic",
	"BC_main_theme.mp3",
	"WotLK_main_title.mp3",
	"wow_main_theme.mp3",
	"BCCredits_Lament_of_the_Highborne.mp3",
10. at the end of this is where you want to add your music file names so it would look like:
Code:
["GlueScreenMusic"] = {
	"GlueScreenMusic",
	"BC_main_theme.mp3",
	"WotLK_main_title.mp3",
	"wow_main_theme.mp3",
	"BCCredits_Lament_of_the_Highborne.mp3",
	"On_the_Precipice_of_Defeat.mp3",
        "NEXT_MUSIC_FILE.mp3",
        "ANOTHER_MUSIC_FILE.mp3",
11. After that just save the file and go use musicButler as normal your files will be in the playlist under GlueScreenMusic
Note: You could also delete the exiting .mp3 filenames in the lua that you dn't want to listen to.

I only recommend using this is you listen to only a couple songs trying to add 10 or more would be well very annoying and probally best if you just downloaded a MP3 addon that does this for you. I just like the way this one looks and I only wanted to add like 3 or 4 songs.

Also note that you will need to redo the adding of you files to the LUA file when you update the addon.

Note to Author: If maybe in the next version having the ability to do this automatically would be kickass

The city tracks are found in wow files inside ZoneMusic/Azuremyst and ZoneMusic/Eversong, about the others im not so sure about if they exist in wow files.

All the options regarding continuous play would need info about the lenght of the tracks. I need to make a some kind of program to scan all of the wow's mp3 for lenghts and then append them to the addon.

Here's what I use.. Simple Mp3 Player. A lot less strain on my pc than using iTunes.

I'm gonna check this addon out simply to listen to the much better Horde music while playing my Alliance toons

This is a very nice mod Thank you. I use to use wowsounds but this is in a category of it own.
Would you please put on your list to do (near the top), to make it LDB (LibDataBroker). As it would be very nice to get the bar off the desk top.

promising addon

This is a very promising addon.

Listening to the same mp3 over and over again makes Jack a dull boy though. ;>

Awsome addon. Really, really nice. I am looking forward to see your improvements to this addon.

By the way, I may be blind, but I think the brewfest files are missing from the list.

Nice AddOn....here is some things I would like to see.

A) An option to select a few tracks so you can keep on playing without
the same track repeating all the time.

B) The TBC city tracks, A Call to Arms and Song of Elune.


Ah...I just noticed you covered that a bit allready...you also mention configuration options...please please make sure to give an option to re-size the bar I have trouble fitting it anywhere on my screen.
