I am learning autoit and have a few questions.

I am trying to read multiple sections of an .ini file. Should I use a loop for this? I am wondering what is the best way to go about this?

The picture I have attatched is what I want it to look like, I have figured out everything but the part dealing with reading the ini and displaying it into the listview section.

Here is an example of what my .ini looks like.

[GOODFILE1.mpg]
Format=MPEG-PS
Resolution=1920x1080
VideoFormat=MPEG Video
FrameRate=29.970 fps
BitRate=18.5 Mbps
Scan=Interlaced
AudioFormat=MPEG Audio
AudioVersion=Version 1
AudioProfile=Layer 2
AudioBitrate=384 Kbps
SamplingRate=48.0 KHz

[GOODFILE2.mpg]
Format=MPEG-PS
Resolution=1920x1080
VideoFormat=MPEG Video
FrameRate=29.970 fps
BitRate=18.5 Mbps
Scan=Interlaced
AudioFormat=MPEG Audio
AudioVersion=Version 1
AudioProfile=Layer 2
AudioBitrate=384 Kbps
SamplingRate=48.0 KHz

[BADFILE1.mpg]
Format=MPEG-TS
Resolution=1280x720
VideoFormat=MPEG Video
FrameRate=29.970 fps
BitRate=18.5 Mbps
Scan=Interlaced
AudioFormat=MPEG Audio
AudioVersion=Version 1
AudioProfile=Layer 2
AudioBitrate=192 Kbps
SamplingRate=24.0 KHz

The sample from the .ini above shows the values everything should be, I would like to have a way to make sure all values are correct and give a green box.

#include <ButtonConstants.au3>
#include <DateTimeConstants.au3>
#include <GUIConstantsEx.au3>
#include <ListViewConstants.au3>
#include <StaticConstants.au3>
#include <WindowsConstants.au3>
#include <GUIConstants.au3>
#include <Date.au3>

Look at IniReadSectionNames to get all of the sections, then IniReadSection to get the contents of them, you will need to loop through the array returned by IniReadSectionNames to do this.

If I posted any code, assume that code was written using the latest release version unless stated otherwise. Also, if it doesn't work on XP I can't help with that because I don't have access to XP, and I'm not going to.

Alright, I've got it pulling data from the .ini file! So here is what I have, I have noticed that it SEEMS extremely messy...

#include <ButtonConstants.au3>
#include <DateTimeConstants.au3>
#include <GUIConstantsEx.au3>
#include <ListViewConstants.au3>
#include <StaticConstants.au3>
#include <WindowsConstants.au3>

_Main()

Func _Main()
Local $StartButton
Local $SectionName = IniReadSectionNames("C:playbackerror.ini")
$VideoChecker = GUICreate("VideoChecker", 802, 602, 188, 115)
$Logo = GUICtrlCreateGraphic(8, 8, 401, 89)
GUICtrlSetBkColor(-1, 0x00FF00) ;Logo Placeholder

$ListView1 = GUICtrlCreateListView("Section|Format|Resolution|Video Format|Frame Rate|Bit Rate|Scan|Audio Format|Audio Version|Audio Profile|Audio Bit Rate|Sampling Rate", 8, 104, 785, 489)
GUICtrlSendMsg(-1, $LVM_SETCOLUMNWIDTH, 0, 50)

If @error Then
MsgBox(4096, "", "Error occurred, probably no INI file.")
Else
For $i = 1 To $SectionName[0]
GUICtrlCreateListViewItem($SectionName[$i], $ListView1)
Next
EndIf


$Date = GUICtrlCreateDate("2012/09/11 17:47:29", 536, 8, 257, 33)
$StartButton = GUICtrlCreateButton("START", 416, 8, 113, 89)
GUISetState(@SW_SHOW)


While 1
Switch GUIGetMsg()
Case $GUI_EVENT_CLOSE
ExitLoop
;
Case $StartButton
Run("C:playbackMediaInfo.bat", "C:playback", @SW_HIDE)
ProcessWaitClose("MediaInfo.bat")
Sleep(500)
;
Case Else
EndSwitch
WEnd

GUIDelete()
EndFunc ;==>_Main

Is there a way to make it refresh the array when I press the start button?

Put the entire process of reading the ini file into its own function and use that function whenever you want to update it.

EDIT:

Are you sure that you don't want to use either a MYSQL or SQLITE database for what you're doing?

Alright I am having some trouble grasping functions and While statements.Am I supposed to leave the

While 1
$msg = GUIGetMsg()
Select
     Case $msg = $GUI_EVENT_CLOSE
         ExitLoop
EndSelect
updateTime()
WEnd

by itself, outside of a function? Is that where it looks when a the button is pressed?

I am also having trouble understanding how it goes to a function, does it run them all when it starts? Like with this clock:

$lblTime = GUICtrlCreateLabel("Time", 632, 70, 100, 20)
$lastsec = @SEC

Func updateTime()
    $cursec = @SEC
    if $cursec <> $lastsec Then
        $lastsec = $cursec
        GUICtrlSetData($lblTime,_NowTime())
    EndIf
EndFunc

I do not understand how it is calling the function.

I'd start by using the tutorials that are in the wiki to learn how to do the basics before attempting a larger script that you're not properly trained to handle.

If I posted any code, assume that code was written using the latest release version unless stated otherwise. Also, if it doesn't work on XP I can't help with that because I don't have access to XP, and I'm not going to.

Functions are just ways of grouping code for later or reuse.

So you would have the while loop with an if statement checking for some condition to be met. Once the condition is met it would then run the function, Like updating the GUI with new info.

So something like this:

$A = 0

while 1
$A = $A + 1

If $A = 25 then
TestFucntion()
endif

wend

Func TestFunction()
msgbox(0,"Test","Got to 25")
EndFunc

Notice that the function can be located just about anywhere and can be called from elsewhere.

Also While 1 just means that it will check forever.

Thank you for your post Attckdog! That little bit of information has helped so much!

I have updated the first post to reflect where I am now.

I think the last thing I need to do is get a color background behind each "FAIL" in the list view. I have tried GUICtrlSetBkColor (-1, color) but this seems to do the whole line above it.

Thank you for the support!
