Need help. So I want to create a new music player skin.
So far only progress bar/time bar is done.
Title and artist doesn't get detected. So I thought because I am new and don't know how to use things properly
So I copied the code from NowPlaying https://docs.rainmeter.net/manual/plugins/nowplaying/
And it did not detect it too.
What is the latest AIMP version that fully support Rainmeter, willing to downgrade. Using 4.11 so far or should I upgrade?
Or is there some sort of plugin to work around? I am new to Rainmeter btw
Done a few skins and they are all working with V4.12 build 1880. This is the link to a stand alone player I did, take a look at the code to see if it can help you. https://forum.rainmeter.net/viewtopic.php?f=27&t=25078
The only source of knowledge is experience. Albert Einstein Deviant Art Page
Is true fonpaolo, that the code doesn't look like it would be copied from the indicated page and indeed this is not the good approach to use the NowPlaying plugin, however, not this is the reason why the skin is not working, because even the code posted by deXxterlab97 is working, with this non parent-child measure structure. Although I can't say what is (I'm not using AIMP), I think something else is the issue.

Please check if you're running Rainmeter as administrator. Because a while ago we've discovered that the NowPlaying plugin refuses to work with WMP, when Rainmeter is ran as administrator. Maybe some similar issue with AIMP too, if it's ran as administrator?
So deXxterlab97, are you running Rainmeter as administrator?

I don't think so. How do I check? It auto startup with Windows but no where to be seen under Task Scheduler. Regardless everything works now

In this case, it probably was started normally. I just had that idea about a possible startup in administrator mode, because a few days ago we had here on the forum a such discussion and we've discovered that the NowPlaying plugin doesn't work with WMP, if Rainmeter is started as administrator.
But finally if everything is working well now, I think the issue is fixed, right?
