Would a plugin that changes the ad-bar at the bottom of a convesation window into media player controls (play pause next/back a song etc) be useful and is anyone interested in making it? Seeing as your personal message can be what you're listening to, you shoud be able to control a media player through the chat window rather than switching to wmp/winamp etc.

I like that. I like that alot.

Wkd idea, like an integrated media player. dont no wetha its hard to make(i aint a programmerlol). i ges you'd have to make like different ones to control different media players. duno i dont no much unless u create a totally nu media player in it..."Plus! Player" but that would probz b a job to make aswel.

I don't know any programming, but you could patch the adbar to display a website of the same size (the html file could be on the internet or in the plugins directory, and then use javascript to create controls for different media players and show the title of the song playing.

This is indeed a very good idea/sugestion... Me neither knows how hard it is to interfere with the banners.. But as tomfletcerman says:

Is the best solution I would think.. But I don't know any javascripting(only very basic JS), this should be possible for someone to make.. ..

I suggested something like this earlier....I very much like the idea!

SOuunddsss PERFECT Good thinking man, maybe we could ask a programmer to try to do this.. ( I feel so bad everytime any1 has an idea I say ye we should ask a programmer.., but its cuz i dunno how to program )

but hey if anyone does  it, try to make it compatible with Itunes

lol

Yeh ,, Good thinking man ... ..

That would be awsome! You got my vote!
