[help]winamp song display(vbs)

im trying to get sysstats to display the song text from winamp..

i was looking around and i found this http://www.planetsourcecode.com/vb/scripts...=55280&lngWId=1

and i was wondering how i can modify and create a vbscript so that it will get displayed in sysstats

im still trying to learn vb so any kind of tutorial sites would help as well...

Sorry you are confusing VB with vbScript.

vbScript is like VB light.

Unfortunately, the code you found would require VB stuff that vbScript misses.

sucess with the combination of a plugin for winamp.. i finally got sysstats to display the winamp track titles and time.. although the time portion doesn't look right i just need to figure out how to format the time so it looks ok

the plugin was found here [link]

the only big problem is that my program knowledge is pretty bad since i really don't know how to program in vbs..

but currently the time code looks like this..

Function ScriptMeter_GetValue(selector)
x = winamp.GetTrackPositionMilliseconds()
y = winamp.GetTrackLengthSeconds()
ScriptMeter_GetValue = x & "/" & y
End Function

and the display is in milli secs / secs

and info on how to format it to get it so its m:ss/m:ss

would be awesome..

and im trying to use one script to do both..

i only know how to use the %s in the format section to get things to display

thanks judge! I can get sysstats to finally display the time for the winamp tracks without looking all weird...

even though herd just released an itunes2winamp preview..

in the screenshot.. the buttons are 5 shortcuts in avedesk(using winampcc to control winamp(like with samurize)) and the track title and times are created by a vbscript with the help of the plugin mentioned above...

d-shade,

could you post the code you finally arrived upon? do you have saved .ini files that I could just load into sysstats?

thanks,

paystubs

no i don't have a ini set up anymore as i had to format my computer a few times. since i made the script.

the instructions in the read me should be enough to get you started.

the vbs can't control the winamp at least not yet. maybe evntually ill get it working fully.

your gonna have to get winampcc from the samurize site for the buttons.
