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

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".

Good! I like it.

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

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

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

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.

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.
