Now Playing script question by furinto on 08-04-2006 at 06:21 PM
Hey,
I just recently upgraded to Live and got Plus! for it. Previously, I was running a plug-in on MSN Messenger Plus! that allowed the messenger's "Now Playing" to use Winamp rather than WMP because Winamp is the media player I have always on.
Well now that I went Live, I searched for the appropriate script and found the Now Playing script by Matt Labrum (http://www.msgpluslive.net/scripts/browse/index.php?act=view&id=58). I installed it without any problems and it seems to be working fine. But there's just one thing wrong: The status isn't displaying on my Messenger window. At the top of my contacts list where I would type a personal message, I have the "Turn on 'What I'm Listening To'" option checked, but my song in Winamp isn't displaying, even though I have the script installed.
Am I missing something?

I don't think that that script does what you're looking for.

You need a plug-in for WinAmp for it to work.
This might help...although there could be better plug-ins out there, that was the first one I found on Google.

Music Now Playing is a configurable now playing script. It currently supports Winamp and Itunes , in the future it will support more players.
Have you followed the instructions?

How to use this script:
- Make sure you have Live Messenger and Messenger Plus! Live installed.
- Download the script, open it, accept the warning and press Import.
- Open a conversation window.
- Click on the Messenger Plus! logo.
- Click on Now playing in the menu and choose any option.

Thanks! That works perfectly.

Zahid, the script doesn't set your Music status to winamp, and that's what the person wanted...you understood me wrong :/
