24x2 winamp screen (Now with more eyecandy)

[fishthecat]

Fishthecat's winamp screen.
I've only got a two line LCD, but I think I've come up with something special.


Top: Winamp style scrolling title
Bottom: Windows System Volume in a vertical bar, 7 bar mini winamp visualisation, Track position bar, Track time(right justified) with leading zeros.


LCD Screen size 2x24
Plugins needed

• scroll.dll
  tinybar.dll
  volume.dll
  winamp.dll
  sandr.dll
  regexp.dll

Syntax used in LCD Smartie

Code: Select all

$dll(Scroll.dll,1,24,[$WinampTitle])
$dll(tinybar,8,$dll(volume,4,,),1)$dll(winamp.dll,1,1x7,u#99#WFl#80#200)[$dll(sandr.dll,1,$WinampPosition(9),)]$Right($dll(regexp,3,0:(\d*):#\1:#:(\d)#:0\1#0(\d\d)#\1,0:$WinampPosh),$5%)

Syntax used in sandr.dll's omit.ini file

Code: Select all

[Search1]
1=+
2=-

[Replace1]
1=$Chr(219)
2=$Chr(165)

The track length looks neater when there's a mp3 less than 10 minutes long on it, as it leaves a space between it and the position bar.

I've just found AviScreen which lets you take animated screen captures. So here's an animated gif of my winamp screen. (Feel free to put it on the Smartie main site )



As you can tell, I'm now using 2bars.dll rather than tinybar.dll to show the system and winamp volumes.

fishthecat - how are you separating 2bars from the winamp visualisation? Whenever I try it, 2bars also takes over the two left bars of the visualisation.

I'm only using a 7 character wide visualisation which uses customer chars 1-7. This leaves me char 8 to play with.
The 2bars plugin lets you specify which custom char to use, so I'm using the following to force it to char 8:

Code: Select all

$dll(2bars, 8, $dll(volume,4,,),$dll(winamp_vol,1,,))

I know what I was doing wrong! I was using a 7 char wide vis, but assigning the 2bars to the first char!
No wonder it wasn't working. I fixed it and it's working beautifully. Thanks.
