When WMP sends the album picture it deletes the older picture automatically and replaces it with the latest one!
Hasn't another thread been made about this?

Well I'm not asking for a album art plugin because it probably wouldn't work with foobar, I just want a plugin that reads a path from a text file and sets that as the DP.  This method would mean the plugin could be used for more than just the purpose I want it for too.

Here is the source I made from something similar. Try and edit it to do what you need it to do.

Sorry, I have no idea how to make that into what I want...

No one?

Could anyone make a plugin that reads a file path from a specified text file every 1 - 10 seconds and then sets it as the display picture?

I'm sure this wouldn't be very difficult for most plugin developers, I'd do it myself but I know no C++ and very little VB...

There would be many uses for this plugin, but what I want it for is to combine it with a foobar2000 (a music player) plugin that can write text files so I can show album cover art for what I'm playing automatically.

Thanks, I'll be very grateful to anyone makes this.

Hey mate, sorry i didn't get back to you in time, you contacted me at mess.be forums.

I want you to send me an IM because I just want to ask you a few things about this, I have just had a quick go at it and I think it should be simple enough to do.

What is the file path that you want read ? Or does it not matter ?

OK man, finally I have been able to get it up here for you, it is just a quick one, I think this is what you wanted.

I have attached the link to download it anyway, also read the 'Read Me' file before hand because it has the instructions.

DOWNLOAD FILE HERE

Thanks.

Can anyone send me the display picture changer that Destruction made or direct me to where else I can get it?  The link doesnt seem to work.

Thanks
