Okay, I've edited my post above and you can find the installer there and on sourceforge.net. Glad that everything else is working. Right now I'm trying to find a better way of knowing when winamp changes a song, the polling which is done right now is not the best solution.

maybe look into the Winamp API. the way Messenger Discovery used to do it was get Winamp to capture the global message winamp sent on song change then you could call a function which updates everything.

looking into the API (if successful) will remove the need for timers.

did you see me say this, i really think you should look into it

edit : i've attached some source (NOT! coded by me )
it gets the song name and some of other ID3v1 tags i think..

anyway good luck

thanks

Well, this would probably take some time to develop. I really like this feature, but I don't think I will add it to my plugin, sorry.

---

Please please reconsider it, song2avatar is the best innovative feature of this kind of plugin

Sweet, I hope it fixes that crashing problem good.

Also the download from optus (australia) doesn't work at sourceforge.net. I think that is out of your control tho, I'm just letting you know.

edit: Oh I just thought of something... If there is a file format that your plugin doesn't understand, you should have an option to read the actual filename.

Thank you very much for your help, I'll look into it!

hi!any chance of making an uninstaller? i don't know how, but i managed to make my messenger crash as soon as i get logged on... i tried deleting the mpwinamp dll of the plugins folder and my messenger came back to life... then i reinstalled your plugin and the crash thing came again...

so i guess it's because some other preferences that i left from the first intallation... I'm not a programmer or something... i can move myself in the registry... so... what can i delete to get a clear MPWinamp installation?

This happened maybe because i used your plugin with many color tags or format tags (My nickname is a gradient and it's underlined, then i changed the color of the artist and the one for the song and added four emoticons)

I love your plugin... please, i'd like to be able to use it again...

Greetings from Mexico

I could definitely make an uninstaller, but where should I put it? Not in the plugins directory I guess, because only plugins should be placed there. Well, I'll give it some thought.

As to how you could clean up, go to the registry editor and browse to HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Schier\MPWinamp\. In there you'll find different keys for each email address so delete the one your using.

By the way, the key will be changed to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE in the next version.

hi

I've been looking for a long time for a plug in easy to use like this

thanks (I'm using messenger 7 beta)

I just didn't understand how to use exactly the mask conditionals...

make a new directory in the plugin directory, and put there the uninstaller (like stuffplug does)

ps any progress in the new version? (no pressior )

I'll do just that, thanks. Right now I'm having a bit of trouble with the global message hook required for me to react correctly on song changes in Winamp. The WinampMagic part is almost finished, that should give my plugin the ability to use the metadata of all supported types in Winamp (I believe).

Sweet can't wait
