I do believe that from iTunes 4.7 onwards you don't need to poll iTunes for the status - it gives out a notification of when the song changes. This is how apps like butler, etc can display the song changing when it does, with no polling of iTunes.

Hiroshi - I think you may have to write a "visualizer" or other plug-in to achieve this kind of behavior in a non-polling way. Doing this is probably against the license agreement for developing such plugins, but it might be worth looking into, especially if you're just going to use it for personal stuff.

There is one pretty fancy EQ I saw as a plugin for iTunes that I believe does things along those lines. Can't recall the name now.

Hello!
Are there anyway to execute an Applescript at the beginning of every song
that is being played by iTunes?


What I want to do is to issue commands to hardware equalizer (de- emphasis filter)
according to the comment column of every song being played.
iTunes' 'equalizer column' is not enough for me.


I'd like to avoid daemon-like Applescript that checks iTunes status every minute.
