Ok, after fixing the (!WAT) problem, I thought I'd fix up a couple more things, including this problem.

To fix this, edit the script. Select WinampClass.js as the current script file. Then scroll down, you should see:
var Winamp = function(){ somewhere in there. Keep scrolling down until you find:
"CurrentTrack" : function(){

A couple of lines below that, you should find:

code:

---

        t = title.split('-');
        return {'Title': t[1], 'Artist': t[0]};

---

Just replace the first line with this:

code:

---

t = title.split(' - ');

---

That will also solve the problem with {artist} always having a space at the end and {title} always having a space at the beginning.

Nice, (!WAT) is working all right now

intresting but that doesnt really fix it , anyway my new method (if i can get it to work >< ) will fix this

It does fix it for me, but I modified the script greatly, so maybe I forgot something.

What exactly is the problem?

what happens if a song is named like so

Artist: rolling - cats
Ttitle: moo cows

(Ive seen a few songs named like so)

That's why none of my songs have " - " in the artist name. Artists that have a hypen in the name, don't have spaces around it.

e.g.: The All-American Rejects, American Hi-Fi, blink-182. But you're right, now that I think about it, I have 2 songs that have " - " in the song title.

So I came up with this:

code:

---

        var title = songName.readString(0,false);
        artist = title.substr(0, title.indexOf(" - "));
        title = title.substr(artist.length - (-3));
        return {'Title': title, 'Artist': artist};

---

That works on songs with a " - " in the title, but not in the artist.

I got an alert for the new version of musicnowplaying, what's new in it?

Some minor fixes, like (!WAT) can now work with text in front of it, or next to it

By the way, today i was listening to a stream (old version though) and it showed as Connecting <url> - Undefined... While Winamp reported the correct data.

Muh... How can I increase the title length limit? I have tracks with a huge name like

quote:

---

Ben Bording pres. Benya vs. Inez - Prometheus (Original Mix) (a.k.a. Yamin - Almathea) vs. Stronger (Accapella)

---

(I use Winamp)

Firstly, thanks a lot for this!

I missed (!WAT), and whenever I used (!MYMEDIA), it was doing "{1} - {0} - Artist - Title". No idea what that was all about.

Few things though, although I've found the fix for songs with '-' in the title a few posts up, it might be worth putting that fix in the file linked to at the start of the thread, so everyone doesn't have to do it themselves?

Also "/lyrics" doesn't seem to do anything. Am I missing something? Does it only read lyrics from ID3 tags, or does it fetch them from a lyrics site?

Finally, {album} doesn't display anything. I'm using Winamp (latest) and all my files have id3 v2.3 tags, so, any ideas?
