Those plugins arn't "built-in" they are just... plugins. You had the right idea with removing the "plugins" assembly, but i think the error probably has to do with the current skin "requiring" that assembly to be present. Look at the skin.xml file and you'll see how it includes that assembly. I'll modify the program to make the error more apparent that your missing a certain assembly.

Ahh yes, excellent. I deleted the line refering to that assembly, and I was able to run it without any of those plugins. Of course, the buttons associated with those plugins caused crashes, but that's to be expected.

I think I'm getting the hang of the interface. Thanks for the pointers, and for your efforts.

I've said it again, but I'll repeat it here, I'll be happy to help in any way I can to develop this further, as it's nearly exactly what I wanted to do on my own. :-)

havn't had a ton of time to work on it the past few weeks, but I've made some minor updates to bugs and such in the main application, not really any work done on the plugins. Again plese let me know of any bugs you might find.

I'm interested in helping out. I'm very good with C#. How do you plan on doing things like XM, FM, etc?

**zzachattack2** · 02-07-2006, 05:33 PM

could be incorporated into the media player if i decide, or if anyone else wants to code a plugin for it, then they can certainly do that

**augieman** · 02-07-2006, 05:46 PM

are there any samples of XM code talking to the XM Direct? I'd consider doing an XM plugin. How is everybody else coding their XM interfaces?

thanks!

Any progress on this?

we talked lots about a good plugin-concept...

but there is already one (to be detailed: it kicks ***

) - in Centrafuse !!!
(so check it out!)

So I finally had some time to work on it, and finally....... the mostly documented API! So check out... http://67.190.105.16:3969/Debug.rar for the file which includes the executables, the documentation, and example code for simple plugins. Later I will put together some guides and tutorials along with the API for the final SDK but here's what I have now.
