Winamp skin: retrieving album art?

Post by Raikuga »

Is there a way to retrieve the current album art from Winamp? My Winamp is able to display it so surely there's a way for Rainmeter to do it, isn't there? Also, when I close Winamp, I want the skin to automatically re-update to saying "0" instead of showing the last song played. Is there a way to do that too?

The next Rainmeter beta will have a Winamp skin for Enigma, and maybe Gnometer that will reset the title when you close winamp. It also includes some other enhancements like playback buttons that update depending on the state of winamp's playback. Album art is something we are still working on, it's not as easy as you would think.
