Yes, eventually. After I rewrite the plug in and donate the code to Guino.

Possibly, it depends on the how the playlist is being displayed at the moment.
If it's a plain copy of Winamp's playlist, then it should work automatically.
As far as I know, that is not the case. So some extra coding would have to be done for this request to work.

In short, with enough time, what you are asking for should be taken care of.

Anyone has any other requests for future releases?

As for requests, as you seem to be going to re-wite it in VB6 to include with RR. Just to make it not a "Plug-in" as it's current state. But to make it like any other skin, and use RR buttons ect to control it. This way the size of list boxes, locations of buttons could all then be modified much more easily. This would then use the standard on, off, down images to show button presses ect, and not have to embed it as an application.

This sounds like where you are going already, but just wanted to see if that is actually how you plan on implementing it.

Road Runner is in MUCH need of a better internal search, and this is EXACTLY what it needs!

Yes, John. That's the plan.

DJiK · 01-14-2007, 04:29 PM

OK guys, but you're gonna have to wait until at least late-February, March though...

My parents always said that good things come to those who wait.

Awesome.

Do you think it'd be easy to make up/down buttons that would jump through different artists? I usually have all my albums on the playlist, and it'd be nice to be able to jump through the artists quickly and then scroll to find the song, rather than type in the song name

JohnWPB · 01-15-2007, 12:29 AM

Not really possible with this winamp plugin. Unless you type the name of the artist. This is really meant as a search utility, not to just browse through an album.
You are better off just using RR's built in browser to scroll through the artists, then their songs ect.

Not to discourage the change over to VB for this proj, I have just come across this in the autoit forums and rememer the memtion of of such prob...

First check out the demo written in autoit calling a custom dll, which HAS a paint func...

Hope this could help with this....

That's a GREAT FIND!
Thanks.

If the VB stuff fails, I could finally complete the plugin in AutoIT with those scripts.

Blue ZX3 · 01-22-2007, 12:52 AM

Glad it could be of use...I'm also sure that it could/will open many more options for plugins using autoit...

First of this is sweet. I am using the DigitalFX skin and have resized it to 1024x768. Is it possible to resize the JTFP without modifying the xy coordinates in the skin.ini?
