Hi everyone! I accidentally remembered I have posted my plugin here))

Could anyone please sum up if there are any actual problems (after putting all the .dlls where they should be and changing winamp caption mode) so that I can fix them... Thx)

Ah, well, I'm not sure but probably I made some severe changes to code and forgot to upload a new version...
My fault... Anyway, I'm using this version of plugin for two weeks already and have experienced no problems (winamp 5.56).

Please, someone, give it a try and if you experience bugs, please write your OS, winamp version and the steps to reproduce a crash/bug (no dumps, 'cause in the case of this plugin they are almost useless).

Plugin seems to have crashed my Rainmeter, causing me to have to reinstall.

Thanks for the updated plugin, that's stopped the crashes on mine too. :)

I'm not getting album art out of it yet, but that could be something in the skin or it's just unable to find album art for whatever I'm listening to, I'll investigate that later.

Good plugin, thanks for the hard work. :)

My only complaint - and it's a deal breaker - is the caption syntax requirement. I almost always have Winamp's playlist window open, with just artist/album/tracknumber/title displayed, which makes it very easy for me to keep track of what's playing when. Changing it to your syntax puts way too much info in the playlist window, making it very difficult for me to read.

If there's a way to get this plugin working independant of changing Winamp's caption syntax, I'll definitely use it. Otherwise I'll have to stick with CD Art Display - which is an excellent program, but I would prefer to use just Rainmeter.

Maybe there's a way for the plugin to just directly "read" the currently playing song's ID3 tag? Then we could write configs that display as much or as little info as we want.

Thanks again. :) This is otherwise an excellent effort, adding a functionality to Rainmeter that's long overdue, imho.
