Controlling Winamp from zMUD anyone?
|
Found this great plugin to Winamp last night, that creates a COM server which can be accessed through zMUD. The plugin can be found http://www.winamp.com/plugins/details.php?id=6538 <-- there.
Download it and install it and startup winamp.
Enter this in zMUD:
| Code: |
#CLASS "winamp"
#ALARM {1} {#var song @Winamp.CurrentSongTitle;#var songtime @Winamp.CurrentPos;#var songlength @Winamp.CurrentSongLength;#var status %case(@Winamp.Status+1,"Stopped","Playing","Unkown","Paused")}
#KEY F9 {#call @Winamp.Rewind;#var currentsong @Winamp.CurrentSongTitle;#var songtime @Winamp.CurrentPos;#var songstatus %case(@Winamp.Status+1,"Stopped","Playing","Unkown","Paused")}
#KEY F10 {#call @Winamp.FastForward;#var song @Winamp.CurrentSongTitle;#var songtime @Winamp.CurrentPos;#var songstatus #var songstatus %case(@Winamp.Status+1,"Stopped","Playing","Unkown","Paused")}
#KEY F11 {#if (@songstatus="Playing") {#call @Winamp.Pause} {#call @Winamp.Play};#var song @Winamp.CurrentSongTitle;#var songtime @winamp.CurrentPos;#var songstatus %case(@Winamp.Status+1,"Stopped","Playing","Unkown","Paused")}
#KEY F12 {#Call @Winamp.Stop;#var song @Winamp.CurrentSongTitle;#var songtime @Winamp.CurrentPos;#var songstatus %case(@Winamp.Status+1,"Stopped","Playing","Unkown","Paused")}
#KEY F1 {#var Winamp %comcreate("WinampCOM.Application")}
#KEY F2 {#var Winamp ""}
#STW {@songstatus: @song;Position: %concat(%eval((@songtime/1000)/60),":",%mod(%eval(@songtime/1000),60)) ;F9: Previous Track F10: Next Track;F11: Play/Pause F12: Stop;}
#GAUGE winampbar "Winamp progress bar" @songtime @songlength 0 "" "grey" ""
#class 0
|
And hit F1 and the server is connected. I think You can figure out what the other macros do.
Cheers,
Kaputchnik |

Hey, that is great! I unsuccessfuly searched for a similar plugin several weeks ago. Even considered writing one myself. I'm sure this will help a lot of people out.

Found CurrentSongLength which returns length of song in seconds, so I added a gauge to the previous script. Voila your own Progress bar in zMUD.

Cool stuff. I added buttons to it because I like to use my mouse.
Was just a simple copy and paste for each button. I used a toggle for the connect/disconnect and then a guage for Play/Pause, Stop, FFW, Rev.
Then It was a matter of directing each button to a graphic for looks. For icons I went into the winamp skins folder and edited the ones there to suit my needs, with a simple copy and paste to paint.
By doing this, I have a small music player window that has the look and feel of a music player, and the functionality within zmud. |

its a shame i seem to be the only poor soul, not to be able to get this Great piece of coding to work :'(
when loaded the code as Kaputchnik said, but im comming up with and 'invalid Class String' with regards to the '#var Winamp %comcreate("WinampCOM.Application")' on the F1 Macro. i own the most recent zMUD, and Winamp, i was wondering if anyone could shed some light on my this EVIL problem, thou it doesn't really matter as i have some Excellent KEY-bindings for it. :D
also the F-keys dont work either, i think ill just stick with my Hotkeys

If you did as the instructions show, you should have all the triggers, aliases, macros, and buttons in a single class folder named winamp. Simply type #T- winamp and the entire class will be turned off. |

Looked through the type library but couldn't find the jump function specified.

#var WinAmp %ComCreate("WinampCOM.Application");
#call @WinAmp.SendCommand(40194);
either that or SendCommand(40193) not sure which you're looking for.
if you use Oleview and look at the type library,you'll find an enum
with all the Winamp Command codes
just call SendCommand() with the desired number |

It means that the WinampCOM.Application isn't running.

key F10 is the next song, F9 is for the previous song. F1 just enables the interaction between zmud and winamp

Not real sure why this isn't working for me but here's what I've got. I'm using zMUD 6.40 right now after about 5 years of using zMUD 4.62 32 bit. Of course, I've finally been able to do some really cool scripts but I'd like to use some type of interface for winamp while in zmud. I tried installing this but I'm getting some syntax errors (like in the #KEY F10 line). A window comes up with some undefined variables in it and pressing F1 brings up a help menu. Any clues or help?

Actually messed with the settings and a very elementary version of it working. I can probably mess with it from here.

Something for you folks to think about would be find a way to get zMUD to interface with the SHOUTcast plug in for us amature radio people. That would be the coolest thing.

This isn't meant to take away from this clever bit of coding, but for those that can't get it to work, you should consider just turning on Global Hotkeys. Then you may control winamp from within _any_ app (this is a feature in Winamp 5.0x).
I don't think it is enabled by default. |

For all those getting that 'Error Parsing Command' when hitting F1, you are supposed to have winamp running already before doing this. This script is only a winamp controller, it doesn't open winamp itself.
