Cdcovers Request

Is anyone working on a CDCovers widget or a sysstats config? I know there is one for ITunes but I hate that program and hope someone is doing one that will function with winamp.

Thanks,

Maz

There is still my (neglected) Scriptable Multimeter Desklet at Dockex.com.

One of its configs uses the Samurize AMPI plugin so it should work with Winamp.

Feel free to modify it as you wish.

Thnx for the resonse I tried to install and get it up and going. I installed samurize and then tried to add the docklet. As soon as I click on the itunes config it bombs avedesk. Any ideas?

Which version of Samurize and which version of winamp are you using?

Maybe Samurize doesn't support your version - have a look at the readmes

in your samurize folder.

Samurize 1.55

Winamp 5.03a

Actually that should work so far.

Had no problems with Samurize up to 1.40 yet, perhaps they changed

something in the AMPI plugin. Before I infect my iTunes only machine with

WinAmp, I'd like to ask you to downgrade to version 1.40 instead of 1.55.

If you can wait a few days, I can install and test both on a machine already

equipped with WinAmp 2.

hth,

Please, Mazorax, give me an update on this, I really need to know.

Perhaps I can somehow turn this into the much requested FooBar CDCovers widget...

Ok, will have you an answer in a couple hours. Sorry, I have been swamped with work latley.

#206653

Ok, I downgraded to Samurize 1.40 and left Winamp at 5.03. Works like a champ. They must have changed something in the later versions of Sam. Let me know if there is anything else I can do to help you out.

Later,

Maz

Thanks a lot, you have been very helpful - I can see now clearly that I have to

keep up with Samurize plugins before I release beta 4, which has been advancing

enough to tease you with this:

I hope I can also mock up some 'host' context menu for OD and YZ that AveDesk

so nicely provides.

#206756

good job :woot:

#206861

That's gonna be awesome.... Don't Tease/ Beta Test? :)

#207172

that looks great !!!

can't wait for the release

#207761

is it compatible winamp/foobar or just itunes?

#207956

Atm, it's partially iTunes only, because it reuses the Samurize ampi

plugin for display (5 players) and calls localhost's next.exe etc. for

control (iTunes only), so the context menu stuff will be player

dependant.

Also, the 'rating' submenu and the 'repeat' stuff aren't ready so

no beta test yet. I plan to recode it in two flavours:

1. with ampi usage for samurize supported players (upgrade to SS 1.5x)

2. iTunes only with 'rating', 'repeat' and library browsing.

2nd could be extended to other players with the means I laid out at

'developers hangout', but please understand that I prefer a general

solution over a specific, which takes much longer but delivers a more

portable result.
