Full Version: [request]: tag display in Winamp
Hydrogenaudio Forums > Hydrogenaudio Forum > General Audio

The tag display options in Winamp for Vorbis-files are really versatile and advanced (thanks Peter!) and woke my interest (or greed) for more wink.gif. I have two feature requests (As mentioned in the readme-file, the documentation of the syntax is incomplete. If these are already available, regard the request as obsolete):

1. The unique (?) $abbr(x,y) command is a great way to reduce display-length without touching information, but it only supports displaying the whole field or only the first letter of each word. I'd love to get the first 3 or 4 characters instead of just one (like "Vie Phi Orc" for "Vienna Philharmonic Orchestra").

2. I assume this would be rather tricky to implement, but I'd like to use Genre-dependent tagging. Something like $if(%Genre%=Vocal,%artist%: %title%, %title% - %artist%).

Are there any other plugins (e.g. for MP3) that support complex tag structures?

Thank you!

Peter's is the only one. Though it might be iencluded overall in WA3. Here it is if anyone wants to work it into another plug-in.
