AIMP2 [Solved]

Post by ^(-.-)^ »

Hi,

Is it possible to create a plugin for AIMP2 similar to iTunes or winamp??
If someone don't know what is AIMP2 here is their site http://www.aimp2.us/

Cheers

It seems pretty unlikely that anyone would code a plugin for some random media player on request. Even less so since it seems that it is a closed-source application with no API. Unless there's some way to control it via the command line, you seem to be out of luck.

Fortunately it looks like it's completely skinnable, so you should be able to find or create a look for it that matches your style.

Understandable.
But if you want to be realistic and be able to have a player that you can use in rainmeter - you should change to winamp, foobar or iTunes.
I don't think, therefore I'm not.

AIMP2 is actually compatible with Winamp.
Even if we do not have special plugin for AIMP2, most of AIMP2 will be able to be used from Winamp skins.

What he is saying is that many Rainmeter SKINS made for Winamp may also work fairly well with AIMP2 as it is somewhat a clone of Winamp.

I have never tried, nor care to, but you might test that out.

js appears to be correct as usual. I downloaded aimp2 and it appears to work fine with the winamp skin I'm using. 8-)
