PM text auto-switch [idea] by red3vil on 05-24-2005 at 11:18 PM

hi all,

again a little idea, dunno if its wanted and/or someone finally wants to build it, but the idea is:

when i listen to music and i have "show what i'm playing" turned on my pm will not be shown untill i eighter turn it off or stop the music.
now i would like that it would switch every XX seconds.

there allready is an plugin that shows the info i/you want, but this is only one mask and putting a whole line of tezt in it will result that the song or the text simple won't be read by everyone.
maybe that with a rebuild of this plugin is possible....

greetz Richard.

The feature relies on the media player's plugin to send the information to it. So, in order to get what you're looking for, the media player's plugin will have to be rewritten to send this info more often.

Programming IS hard!
It's not so much the actual code, it's the design part: what should do what, how things should cope with bugs/limitations, workarounds needed, etc.
I'm a CS student, so take my word for it :P
