A great one!

... If it only would read APEv2 tags on mp3s

I'll consider your feature suggestion. Thanks.

Cool! Seems to be a complete tool, I'll check it out. Does player commands from mIRC work with foobar2000 to?

Yes, all the commands from AMIP documentation will work with fb2k. I've already found one bug with /dde mplug control ff and rew (5 sec forward/backward). Don't use them in the current version or player will crash. Fix will be available in the next version.

I just wanted to say... Thank you!!

* Now distributing changelog for last 5 versions, complete changelog is available from the AMIP site
* Stream check using http:// should be not case-sensitive (Bug #1882)

* No more numbers in the playlist. Side effect: after each call to Search dialog local playlist will be reset

Is it possible to get a direct download link? On both DSL and cable your website is amazingly slow for me. I can't even get the download page to load

Server is experiencing some problems last 2 days.
I hope it will be fixed soon.

Try the direct link for the foobar 2000 version:

Thanks a lot for the download link

is amip working on 0.7beta versions ?

Not yet, I'll try to make the experimental version this weekend.

Since AMIP site hosting provider is experiencing problems with american Internet channel, it may be difficult to get AMIP from http://amip.tools-for.net .

I've put AMIP 2.38 to the mirror site:

http://www.rzone.ru/amip

Release 2.38 addresses the following issues:

* Typo in Quick Start fixed, added information about F keys and F12 key issue explanation
* Reworked clipboard integration code, fixed problem with unregistering hotkeys introduced in 2.37

can u make a compile for 0.7 please?

It needs a bit of work 'cause API is changed, you have to wait a couple of days.

Ok, guys... I've released AMIP compatible with 0.7 beta.

Please note that it requires Foobar 0.7 beta 12 or later.

Here is the link: http://www.rzone.ru/amip/

There are 2 versions:

amip_foobar.zip -> for Foobar 0.6x
amip_foobar07b.zip -> for Foobar 0.7 beta 12

I hope you already know where to get the fresh links for the player and SDK:

http://www.rzone.ru/amip/2.39/

amip_foobar.zip -> for Foobar 0.6x
amip_foobar07b.zip -> for Foobar 0.7 beta 13

Please report any problems and suggestions.

What about a quick guide on how to set this great thing up with Bersirc?

You need ddewrapper plug-in for Bersirc installed to make it support DDE exchange, in AMIP set up DDE Server to BERS and make sure that direct send option is disabled.

Actually there is a readme in the ddewrapper zip, you can get it here:

http://www.rzone.ru/amip/2.39/ddewrapper.zip

What do i have to do. That AMIP only shows the Title by pressing a hotkey?

For such questions there is a Quick Start section in AMIP help. RTFM!

Just to let you know, i'm using the following mirc script to access AMIP:

/s /dde mPlug format /say "&b&uTrack&p:_&c12%name&p_&b&uPosition&p:&c12_%pm:%ps&p_&b&uof&p&c12_%min:%sec&p_&b[&p&c12_%sr&p_&b&ukHz&p&c12_%br&p_&b&ukbps&p_&b]"

This worked fine in 2.25 i think it was - however in every later version i've discovered that the underscore/space relaplacement stopped working (no matter whether the option was ticked or not) - it simply outputs with the underscores in there.

It seems your code is wrong, the following code works for me:

2 icehot: if you still want to use /dde mPlug format instead of $dde, you don't need to put underscores intead of sapces.

I've changed the code in one of the latest versions, so that underscores are replaced only in the variables, not in the whole preset string. But for $dde mplug format it is necessary to use underscores and they are replaced in any case.

Ok I've gotten it to work with Bersirc, but not the way I want. Right now it announces EVERY song, but I'd like it to work so I could announce the songs manually with some command (ie. /fb2k). How would this work? In mIRC it's easy with the aliases, but I don't know how to get it to work with Bersirc.

Hmm, I don't use Bersirc for 2 years =) I don't know. If it has something similar to mIRC aliases, you can use the '/dde mplug format' approach described 2 posts above, otherwise you can set up clipboard integration as described in the Quick Start and announce by hotkey (it is not convenient because you'll need to press enter to send the message).

Ok, I'll install Bersirc and check what I can do for you in a couple of days =).

Ok thanks for helping. You really don't have to hurry, as I'm leaving the day after tomorrow to a camp for a week and so I can't get to my computer to check how's everything going.

quick question .. i've started using this for mIRC ... and i've read your help file you have included with this, but i don't seem to see if there is a way to implement a /rand command to randomize songs from mirc... is this possible??

No, it is not possible yet.

ok, is it going to be possible any time soon, or in the near future?

Could you please explain why do you need this feature? You can just use shuffle.

i can do /shuffle ?? i just want to be able to change the song in mirc, without having to open foobar ... like /rand or /shuffle or anything to keep me from opening foobar

If shuffle is enabled in the foobar, will play next entry randomly (the same as Random in foobar tray menu).

thanks!

CrazyCoder all links to your site are being redirected to Irbis Firewall

It was caused by a site transfer to the new hosting, now all should work OK.

Shit, they've just broken it again! I hate this hosting!!!

What about the Bersirc thingy?

Sorry, had no time to look at it, I was working on another features =(.

Hi, I have been using version 0.5x of foobar for ages with the mIRC plugin for ages. And it has been trouble free.

The changes made in 0.7 finally persuaded me to upgrade. Now since there is no mIRC plugin for 0.7 I decided to try out AMIP.

However it causes my Foobar to crash. Its definitely AMIP because when i disable it foobar becomes stable again.

I don't need any advanced features in AMIP to be honest, so could somebody tell me if there is gonna be an mIRC plugin for 0.7 or if there is anything I should know about AMIP to make it more stable.

AMIP 2.43 released.

Changes:

2.43
----------------------------
+ Display playing song info in active window caption
* %name tweaks to work with ogg and ape with incomplete tag info
+ Hack to get volume from Winamp 2.x
* Changed text for ID3v1 tags (typo in Psychedelic fixed)
* fb2k: playback status when paused was not correctly reported
+ FLAC format and tags support

http://amip.tools-for.net

This release is fully compatible with Foobar 0.7 RC versions.

Most likely the problem is related to the following:
http://support.microsoft.com:80/support/kb...s/q136/2/18.asp

AMIP supports 2 ways of communication with mIRC, DDE doesn't work on your machine because of some app which doesn't have message loop.

You can switch AMIP to FileMappig method by creating the new plugin.ini in the components directory with the following contents:

[Advanced mIRC Integration Plug-In]
CFG_MAPPING=1


Then run Foobar and all should work fine. Should you have any other questions, please ask.

thanks for the response and help.
