Yeah. Gets pretty annoying when you mainly listen to internet radio!

@TFaN. Just use the panel in messenger to add the colour yourself. Requests like that just bloat the script. Especially when we want it working 100% before having features added.

The stream bug is weird. I got a couple of internet radio stations I listen to. Below you see a few examples of 'Now Playing' outputs. Note that all of these 5 support 'current title'.

The Dance.FM aac+ stream works fine. ("Accadia - Blind Visions [Harry Peat Rmx] (Dance.FM :: The Beat of Amsterdam :: Powered by NetAware.net) (64k aac+)")

1.FM Dance Hits doesn't work ("no_ex-212.72.186")

XFM doens't work ("no_ex-breedband.xfm")

Fresh FM doesn't work ("no_ex-no_ex")

Music One doesn't work ("no_ex-1011").

It's quite odd...

All using Winamp (5.2) and the most recent version of Now Playing... (1.0.7 if I'm not mistaken)

edit:
I also noted all internet radio station's that are using Windows Media such as Radio 538 and Energy 98 Dance Hits make WLM crash when trying to use Now Playing.

yes, ill fix it tomorrow (its pretty simple)

How are you doing with the update -dt-?

--------

I noticed a strange bug. My 'Now Playing' settings are "{artist}-{title}" for format and (!WAT) format. However, the output is always "ARTIST - TITLE", like

Digital Dog Feat. 45 Flat - Dirty.

With the song Rotterdam Terror Corps - Chaos on the Dancefloor (E-Noid Rmx) (don't blame me for this song a friend sent it to me) the output is

Rotterdam Terror Corps-Chaos on the Dancefloor (E-Noid Rmx)

(without the spaces next to the dash). Somewhere in this thread I saw there was an issue with dashes in a song title. I guess that applies to this bug too. Can this be fixed?

ok new version (finally!)

Changelog 1.0.8
- removed crappy slow dll...
- fixed "-" in filenames by requesting the id3 data from winamp
- radio streams should now display correctly
- added add to sharing folder

Next version:
- jetAudio support!

Thanks for the update!

I'm afraid there are still a few issues with streaming music:

• All stream names now start with ' - ', e.g.
  
  - Glamour Inc. - Dance Dance Dancin [Promo Mix] (Dance.FM :: The Beat of Amsterdam :: Powered by NetAware.net) (64k aac+)
  
  or
  
  - Heather Small - Proud (1.FM -  Dance Hits)
  
  
• Using Now Playing when listening to Windows Media internet streams, such as Radio 538, still crashes WLM.
