I updated my WinAMP song playlist displayer tonight with a friend (Indigo) that converted it over to Flash. This is what I’m listening to… kind of what you see in blogs with moods, what I’m listening to, blah blah blah. I was using this before with text but it’s Flash cool now. LOL

I actually use the DoSomething plugin for WinAMP that’s over at OddSock and it’s handy, basically you configure it to create a file with what you want to display from your WinAMP playlist (song title, artist, album) from the xx number of songs and then set it to FTP the file to a location on your server. I basically made it XML compliant and his Flash display reads the XML and displays it. BTW the green icon will soon change to red or green depending on the # of minutes that the playlist was updated. I know it shows the last time it was updated but I wanted something else in there… LOL So when it’s working it will show red if I haven’t listened to a track in 15 minutes or more. For me it’s either I’ve left the PC or I’m listening to Radio Vietnam.

I created the graphics and he put it into Flash. I’m hoping to make this my first WordPress Plug-in so that you can choose colors and the red/green icon through WordPress, configure the DoSomething plug-in (through WinAMP since it is configured on your local machine) and it will do the same for you. Stay Tuned… I’m a bit slow with creating WordPress plug-ins! LOL
