What am I listening to in Winamp right now?
(I know, it’s still crude)I just started working on this today, It’s a program that you run on your computer that gets the current Winamp song, then sends it to my server and puts it into a database, once someone hits the image, it generates the text based on the database content. I guess this is similar to the Listen-To project..?
And if I release it, Would anyone else be interested in running this to display their current Winamp song?
Now supporting:
Winamp 5.x
RealPlayer 10.x
WMP 9/10Feedback would be great!

same…same…
its amazing how many people use an inferior quality media player… tsk tsk. winamp is way better.
anyway, I could give it a look-see, try it out (for winamp, of course)… although I dont necessarily like extraneous programs running. I like streamlining my system as much as possible, so it’d have to have a pretty small memory footprint for me to use it…
hey guys, I was an itunes user, but after reading a bunch of things it seems everyone perfers winamp, so I tried it. its a LOT better. At least try it. And I would be interested probablly. sounds cool
Ok ok ok I changed my mind – I really like WinAmp Lite. After I switched from WMP, I’m like “where did the hi-quality go” then I turned on the equalizer and BOOM there we go. 😀 But one more problem, it only shows 86 files in the directory I imported, and there’s actually 91. And they’re all mp3’s… what’s with that?
Edit:Ahh, after comparing the two more closely, I’ll stick with WMP, nothin’ can beat that SRS.
I would like one of these MediaDisplay things for WMP.
And Dave, you might wanna try making one for iTunes, becuase I’m a sole iTunes user, never will change, never have. It shouldn’t be that hard, ProfileAMP Has an iTunes displayer.
Winamp kicks the llamas (well you know)
By the way have you all tried saving in Ogg Vorbis in whatever music program you might have? I suggest you do. The quality is a lot better than mp3 and Winamp is the only player I know of that plays ogg.
By the way that sounds cool David.
Until I locate the code to get the current WMP song, it’s not possible. I’ve searched high and low, sub classed windows and read memory, I can’t do it unless there is a hidden API. Someone let me know if it’s possible.

come on, winamp or nothing. I had never even HEARD of jet audio. and i’d like to point out to all of those WMP and iTunes people that I switched, and this comes from a guy who perfers AIM over Trillian, and IE over Firefox, and I’ve tried both.

I’ve used WinAmp in the past, and I like it, but I’m really happy with WMP 10.
Dave, have you checked out the wmplugins.com site? There are a couple of plug-ins that almost do the signature thing, and they definitely are extracting the current track info. Check out the WMPmIRC Plugin which sends your current track info to the mIRC client, and also the aptly titled Now Playing Plug-in, which publishes the same info to an XML file and can even FTP it to your server.
Neither are as sophisticated as some of the plugins for WinAmp, so maybe there’s an opportunity to make a name for yourself.
Personally, I’d like to do integrate something with my blog that showed the last n songs I’ve played. I had this working once before with WinAmp, but I’ve never been able to do it wint WMP.
And of course I loved the old Listen-To project (and whatever I used before that…I can’t even remember the name anymore), so you know that I’d put it in my signature.
But seriously… provide support for WMP, please? 🙂
Check out http://www.davux.com/?p=media for the project, I’ve taken it public!
I’ll check into WMP10 support right now. =)
