Vbscript control of WinAmp

Show or No Show of Main Window

Friday, April 1, 2005 by Automan | Discussion: DesktopX

Hey Folks;

Need a little help herte with a section of VbScript that will either show or not show the Main Window of WinAmp. There is no listing I can see with the DXPlayer at this time.

I did this before with Wscript and it worked great button to show winamp main window and off buttone to turn off main window.

I would appreciate any help on this if someone has the time.

If some of you folks have ever noticed the glitch in the plugin for winamp that supports the Ipod when you reboot, I have found a simple way of resolving this issue with kust two buttons.
One for on and one for ipod off. It used to really drive me nuts because everytime I had the Ipod plug-in running in winamy it would throw an error with DesktopX when reboot.

Let me know if anyone needs the fix and I will get the details out to all.

Thanks for any help on the Main WinAmp window script folks.

Why doesn't it work in DX then? Do you get any errors. DX scripts are powered by Wscript, am I not mistaken?

Hehe DX Is powered by WScript, WMI, etc etc.. LOTS of fun can be had you can akmost strip Windows bare-nekkid and see everything that goes!.. But I digress.. There is a small Command-line program called "ClAmp" which can control WinAmp at one point I used the combination of that program and a DX object to control winamp (That is until I found DXPlayer can toggle the playlist!)
