However, the service itself is a mini-client, which you can control from the
system tray, so you can use it that way.

Well here... you can *SEE* it at least :)

Can you post the interface to the component(s), listing all the properties/events/functions with their parameters? Picking through example code is a chore.

edit I don't mean to sound like an ***, I just get nasty with perceived "competition" even tho the more software out there, the better. :) My apologies for being smarmy. Also, I'm sure we all appreciate that you're releasing it for free. :)

I didn't see that part :(
Maybe we can figure something out.

Been working on it for a few hours, and got a few things working :)

Just some skinning stuff (sticking things in the right places) and general tartyness really to finish up

Well we now have XM support in AIMEE, here's the latest screenshot :) (The audio controls on the bottom are standard AIMEE stuff - i'll likely convert those to 4 presets for you to store favourite channels :))

I'll be splitting it out into a seperate stand-alone application within the next few hours for you all - probably first thing in the morning once I've had some sleep! ;)

I was just going to reply about this. I can set the channel no prob, but obviously thats all I can get to.

Don't know how much work it is to make up some methods to access some of the other info, i can set some intervals in flash to keep my side updated.

Let me know what it would intail if you can frodo, time wise.

Well, can you do any vb ? Should be pretty simple to do to make something
you can poll. If not, some of my upcoming widgets should use the poll
method, so you can use the code I make for them,
