sounds nice.. i've always wanted to display the next song data in some capacity. I'll give it a go when i have time.
well after a few pm's about my Ai script ,which interacts with Active winamp
and displays the next track info , in your Playlist. and also show's the albumart of the next track, anda label to say whether its the next track or last track in your playlist. and finally ratings in graphics or label.
I have decided to try a VB version of it, and here it is,
before i explain how to use , I must thank El for his guidence on this, as this is my 1st attempt at a X tension plugin.
setting up
you will need to install ActiveWinamp
ADD X,RRTOASTER to your menu.skin or plugins.txt file
Drop the RRToaster folder into your RR root or anywhere you like for now , but note this should be in the plugins folder of RR root , when the new RR is released. so if you hav'nt already it might be wise to add the plugins folder to your rr root then drop this plug into it.
use the regme.bat, drop the skin files into your skin folder.
add the lines in the exectbl file.
you have 2 choices here , use a popup or use labels only, simply change the the code on the onsongstart .
onsongstart = RRTOASTER_READ||RRTOASTER.skin
this will give you the popup over the menu skin
onsongstart = RRTOASTER_READ
will use labels only.
ENJOY

might sound a bit of a dumb Q? but have you the skin files in your skin and don't change the skin files name.
Yes i have.. copy and paste skin and graphics.. activewinamp installed.. what else do i need to do? by the way, i have tried popup menu load at ONSKINSTART, it does popup the song info, but freeze/lock up the RR..Any other suggestion?
so your now getting the popup, did you also add the dll to WA plugins folder,
what version of rr are you useing, Ride or Road,
if ride remove any X,xxxx lines as they are not needed, found that out the hard way.
oh damn.. that' what i missed.. copying the dll into active plug in folder... will try now and let you know.. Thanks... by the way, i am using riderunner, feb release..
wait a sec, which dll are you talking about? rrtoaster.dll?
also, regme.bat register everything but rrtoaster.dll.. so i registered it manually from plugin folder...
not at home but the gen ell comes with activewin.exe
