MSN Messenger Media Plugin for WMP

This is a followup to the thread http://shoutbox.menthix.net/showthread.php?tid=43836 in which I posted a slightly improved plugin for wmp that allows song title, artist, album and duration to be displayed in any order.

This is an updated version that adds track number (%t) and year of publish(%y). Thanks Jolo for the suggestion and his patience.  This version can also turn on/off the update when you're watching a video.

Usage:

Run the installation program attached below.
After the installation, go to WMP's plugin's option to change the setting. Remember to disable Microsoft's Music Plugin.

Comments are welcome as usual.

This is an example:



This is a screenshot of the configuration:

Thanks for this Update! The new tags are working very well!

A little problem: When I close WMP, the song in MSN Messenger doesn't clean. I mean, still shows that a song is playing, but the program is closed.

When I stop the song without close WMP, the song text are cleaned.

Anyway, great plugin!

That's because the plugin detects when the song stops, but not when WMP closes.
(Meh, I'm guessing, but I can't be far off right?).

weeee, great plugin!!

i only miss the option what the status is of the music [stopped, paused, playing]

Excellent plugin.

Is it possible to add tags for the genre?
And in WMP you can rate your music files (from 1 to 5 stars). Would be cool to add that rating into your PSM next to the song.

Anyway, I love this plugin. Thanks.

Great plug-in for the listening to PM in MSN messenger. Good work

Any ideas if the plugin is still being worked on?

I just tried it out it's pretty cool but i'd like to have the ratings and stuff like that...

Also would it be possible to have bold/italics/colors? Would be nice...

Can it be used in text not in the name?

hi
allready have a threat about it, but can u make the plugin too "flash" between 2 (or more) lines of text.
lets sat tha every 20/30 sec. the text changes.
