[release] WinampNick v0.9 beta by PeRKoniX on 01-28-2005 at 02:06 PM

Hi, I've released a beta version of my plugin WinampNick...If you wanna try it be my guest. I would appreciate it if you tell me what you like/dislike so I can improve it:)

A screenshot can be found here.

You can download the plugin here.

Hope you like it...and thanks:)

Actually, I didn't try it since I dont use winamp/listen to music...
But I probably guess that the song name updates after there is a new one.
You should update the nick every 5 secs for example because you might not like the song that is playing.
Then you click the next song button and you dont like that song either.
So you click the next song button from winamp and the nick updates.

If the user that is in your contact list has the "User has changed nickname" from Plus! it would be a little annoying..

By the way, you should update your sig :P

Also, thanks for the credits :)

There is no cancel button in the "replace with" form. I think that's very useful if you change your mind and don't want to touch that.

When you hit "save settings", the form should close.

I got a little error, but can't do it again. My anti-virus auto-update lagged me for a bit, so I guess it was related.

It's a good plugin, it only changes your nick when the song changes. A timer would fill the events file/window with too much "you changed your nick".

(Y) Good! I like it.

Now you'll need to put separate tags, imo. Artist, title, etc. Like in MPWinamp ;)


RE: [release] WinampNick v0.9 beta by Cyber Tux on 01-28-2005 at 10:53 PM

(Y)your plugin is very good I realy like it :)
Just try this much longer and see if there is no bug ^^


RE: [release] WinampNick v0.9 beta by PeRKoniX on 01-28-2005 at 10:55 PM

Yeah, you guys have some good points here...thanks:D

Shall I fix this with one "Close" (for every windows) button wich when you changed something, a popup message will appear with the question you wanna save the changes that has been made?

*-) For some this might be useful... For others, annoying.

But I'll agree, you could do that. (Y)

For me, not having a pop-up is good. As the configuration of a plugin is not as important as... say a document.

But, of course, I can't speak for everyone. It would be good to see what others think about this.

omg really weird, i just signed in and it works a-ok now, maybe i had dodgy crap running in background (Dont know how it would effect tho)

RE: [release] WinampNick v0.9 beta by Cyber Tux on 01-30-2005 at 09:54 AM

Hmm that sucks..*-), I have couple of questions for you:

*Was is on the first run?
*Did it happend once? or everytime? or random?
*Did you check: Enable plugin when msn start?
*What version of Messenger Plus! do you use?

Do more people experience this?

btw. Do I need to help to fix this or are you already able to start msn again?
Sorry for the trouble though:(

I just started MSN Messenger with Winamp 5.06 running in the background (playing a song).

I didn't have any problems. (Y) As soon as a new song started it updated my nick.

I think I already gave my specs. :o

I would love to support wmp but the problem is I can't read the song title from wmp...with winamp its easy...maybe if I could write a plugin for wmp that writes the song to a file or something...but the problem is again I can't write plugins for wmp:(
RE: [release] WinampNick v0.9 beta by King Mustard on 02-18-2005 at 09:08 PM

I am using the following code, which displays the following correctly...

code:
King Mustard %[[ Playing: %1 - %2 ]%]

However when I disable the plugin (Plus! > Plugins > MPWinamp > Configure...), the name stays.

How can I make it revert to King Mustard? (which is my standard nickname).

Cheers!

EDIT: Closing Winamp works lol

You're in the wrong thread dude:o...this is WinampNick...you're talking about MPWinamp;)

One Very minor bug:
When you are at song number 100 or greater in your playlist, the [song] part has " -" added at the end.
