Please note that this message will contain a full copy of the comment thread, including the initial issue submission, for this request, not just the latest update. Category: None Group: None Status: Open Priority: 5 Private: No Submitted By: Reuben Balik (cybrguyrsb) Assigned to: Nobody/Anonymous (nobody) Summary: MusicInfo for Gaim/Winamp Initial Comment: I have released a new version of my plugin for displaying the song you are listening to in your user info. Check it out at http://www.ews.uiuc.edu/~rbalik2/musicinfo/index.html This version is a lot more customizable. I'd suggest reading all the instructions on the website because it works a lot differently from previous versions. If you experience any problems please let me know. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- >Comment By: Reuben Balik (cybrguyrsb) Date: 2007-02-21 16:38 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=199447 Originator: YES I have finally gotten around to making a fancy new website for the plugin.

It only supports stuff in the profile. If you want it to work with away messages, get Gaim 2.0.0beta6 and version 0.6 of the plugin. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Frank Sapone (piisarational) Date: 2007-02-11 00:49 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=1575854 Originator: NO I'm trying to use 0.3.2 with gAIM v1.5.0 and Winamp v5.32. The plugin is showing up in my plugin list and is enabled, my away message is set as "(mi)I'm listening to %ar%-%so%(/mi) (ns)LOLL INTERNETT(/ns) " but doesn't seem to do anything, I've added myself to my list and checked my profile after 30 seconds and it doesn't seem to be working. The box is check marked for the plugin. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Reuben Balik (cybrguyrsb) Date: 2007-02-06 16:36 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=199447 Originator: YES Yes, that is correct and should work with version 0.6. Available messages only show up in Gaim. Away messages and your user profile/info (if you are using the AIM protocol) will show up in any client. To check whether it is working, add yourself to your buddy list. You can then right-click on your name and choose Get User Info and it'll show up. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: faemir (faemir) Date: 2007-02-06 15:47 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=1712444 Originator: NO Hi, I am trying to do this with version 0.6 of the plugin and gaim 2.0.0beta 6. Will it even work with that version? It is a avaliable status, and the exact message is: (mi)I am listening to %so% by %ar%(/mi)(ns)Faemir(/ns) Is there anything wrong with this? Oh and where does/should this ACTUALLY display? I am a little confused... And does this show up in only gaim or other clients as well? ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Reuben Balik (cybrguyrsb) Date: 2007-01-25 20:48 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=199447 Originator: YES How are you checking the profile? Add yourself to your buddy list and check it this way. It takes 15 seconds after you start Gaim to update the away message and the profile the first time, so give it a little time and see what happens. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Dirty Pants (dirtypants) Date: 2007-01-24 20:13 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=1700594 Originator: NO Yeah. Restart, reboot, all that. Tried restarting WinAmp, starting them in different orders, etc. I have no clue. Thanks, though! ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Reuben Balik (cybrguyrsb) Date: 2007-01-24 14:13 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=199447 Originator: YES Have you tried restarting gaim since you installed the plugin? This usually fixes it. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Dirty Pants (dirtypants) Date: 2007-01-24 12:05 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=1700594 Originator: NO I'm having no luck with GAIM 2.0b5 and WinAmp 5.32. I installed in the plugins, opened, enabled, and set my away message to: (mi)I'm kicking %so% by %ar% while using the toilet.(/mi) (ns)I am on the toilet in silence.(/ns) I see the "(mi)I'm kicking %so% by %ar% while using the toilet.(/mi) (ns)I am on the toilet in silence.(/ns)" text. People see nothin'. What could I possibly be doing wrong? Thanky! dp ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: greg0rz (greg0rz) Date: 2007-01-09 14:53 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=1687003 Originator: NO Thanks a lot cybrguyrsb, I really appreciate the prompt reply. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Reuben Balik (cybrguyrsb) Date: 2007-01-09 12:20 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=199447 Originator: YES The latest foobar doesn't seem to work with my plugin. Go to http://www.r1ch.net/stuff/foobar/ and download that plugin for foobar. It will emulate a winamp window so that my plugin can detect it. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: greg0rz (greg0rz) Date: 2007-01-08 20:36 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=1687003 Originator: NO Having a little trouble with foobar 0.9 and gaim2.0.0beta5 + v0.6 of your plugin. i have foobar open playing music with an unmodified title bar, and my gaim profile is as follows with privacy disabled: (ns) Greg is not listening to any music (/ns) (mi) .: %ar% .: %so% (/mi) For some reason it always says that Greg is not listening to any music. Any ideas why it isnt picking up the music I am playing? Thanks. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Reuben Balik (cybrguyrsb) Date: 2006-12-11 10:48 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=199447 Originator: YES Sorry for the late reply. Yes, Winamp 5.32 and gaim2.0.0beta5 work with the plugin. Make sure that you have the latest version of the plugin (v0.6) and that you have followed all the instructions on the website. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: matt (shoretbus) Date: 2006-12-07 04:36 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=1209510 Originator: NO hi ive got winamp 5.32 gaim beta 5 and cant get the plugin to display anything.. i also couldnt with beta 4 though should it be working with these versions? ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Reuben Balik (cybrguyrsb) Date: 2006-11-08 16:03 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=199447 Sorry, I've never used MediaMonkey so I'm not sure how it works. The plugin works by getting the title and artist from the winamp titlebar, so if MediaMonkey has a way to customize the titlebar then you might be able to get it to work by making it look like winamp's titlebar. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: nswren (nswren) Date: 2006-11-07 22:59 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=1640176 Hey, I'm using v0.6 of MusicInfo, Gaim v.2.0.0beta4, and MediaMonkey. Although MediaMonkey isn't listed as supported, since it's a Winamp-based program I thought I'd give it a try. Although MusicInfo brings up the correct info for the %so% and %ar% tags if music is playing over the actual Winamp 5.3 player, if Winamp is closed and MediaMonkey uses its player, %so% returns the artist and %ar% always returns "Unknown." Any thoughts? Great work so far, keep it up! ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Reuben Balik (cybrguyrsb) Date: 2006-10-29 10:22 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=199447 Version 0.6 of the plugin only works with Gaim2.0.0beta4. Upgrade to the latest beta and you should be fine. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Johan Kok (jkok) Date: 2006-10-29 06:10 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=938693 I don't know if this is the right place for support questions, but the plugin does not work here. After putting it in the plugins directory I started Gaim and the plugin does not show in the list of plugins. The gaim debug windows displays the following: (13:02:16) plugins: probing D:\Gaim\plugins\musicinfo.dll (13:02:16) plugins: D:\Gaim\plugins\musicinfo.dll is unloadable: The specified module could not be found. I'm using Gaim version 2.0.0beta3.1. Thanks in advance! ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Reuben Balik (cybrguyrsb) Date: 2006-10-19 22:24 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=199447 0.6 is released. Download from the website. Added the privacy feature and compiled it with 2.0.0beta4. I still want to make it work with the foobar columns UI, but I decided to release this version without that so people could have a version that worked with the latest beta of Gaim. Enjoy! ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Reuben Balik (cybrguyrsb) Date: 2006-09-28 23:29 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=199447 Are you using the latest version? It should update within the first 15 seconds even if you're not listening to music. Not sure how the buddyinfo.aim.com thing works, but try asking someone on your buddy list to check through aim or gaim itself or you could even check your own by adding yourself to your buddy list. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: George Lulu (greytangerine) Date: 2006-09-28 22:21 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=522205 It seems that it doesn't update the away message until a song first plays, I was wondering if the moment the plugin becomes active that it will parse the away message. Sometimes I don't have music playing and I get an away message(verifyable on buddyinfo.aim.com/away) including the parsing tags (mi)(/mi) ect... ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Sean (ainshi) Date: 2006-06-18 12:55 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=1541941 I'm using columns UI, but I dont know that i've changed the titlebar at all or not. To be honest, I just loaded a config file for it. If the title bar has changed, I assume that I'll just need to fix up the source for whatever the titlebar now looks like. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Reuben Balik (cybrguyrsb) Date: 2006-06-18 11:51 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=199447 Are you using any custom titlebar modifications in foobar? The plugin is made to work with the default titlebar. Also make sure you're only running one of the players at a time. When you have foobar open, make sure Winamp is closed. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Sean (ainshi) Date: 2006-06-18 10:27 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=1541941 I'm using Musicinfo v .5 and foobar2000 v.9 . When foobar is running, the updates don't work, I just get the string I input. When I open up winamp it works fine. Gaim 2 b3. Any ideas? ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Griffles (griffles) Date: 2006-05-15 19:36 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=1523216 I would just like to compliment you on the plugin. What would also be rather neat is if there was an option so that the information from winamp about the current song can be set to autimatically inject itself into all current convversations when the track changes. I also agree with the idea of the /mi command. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Reuben Balik (cybrguyrsb) Date: 2006-05-14 16:48 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=199447 Thanks for trying out the plugin. It seems that the version of the MSN protocol that gaim uses doesn't allow for available or away messages, so they can't be set at this time, but once gaim supports this my plugin will work with no changes. As for the friendly name, it's a good suggestion and I'll consider it for a later version. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Colin Kelly (mrweirdo) Date: 2006-05-13 06:22 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=874054 I realy enjoy your plugin however I have one big problem with it and that is for some reason it doesnt seem to be working at all with the msn protocol while it works with the others(aim, yim, jabber). All it shows is that my status is still availible or away. Any ideas why that would be? Also one other thing I was thinking it would be neat if we could add the info into our msn name which u can get to in gaim by seting friendly name under the accounts preferences. I know that the real msn client on windows does this with windows media player. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Reuben Balik (cybrguyrsb) Date: 2006-04-27 19:33 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=199447 That's a good idea. I think I might add something like it in the next version. It probably won't be a button, but more like a command that you tupe like /mi to paste the song into the chat window ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: AcIdrain (knightar) Date: 2006-04-26 07:48 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=907265 Would it be possible to add a button to send a buddy what you are listening to? If I'm in a conversation It would be nice to just click a button to paste the artist and song inside the chat window =] Thx for the hard work on this plugin, I hope to see future versions! ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Reuben Balik (cybrguyrsb) Date: 2006-04-20 17:16 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=199447 Does MSN support available messages? I think I heard somewhere that only the newer version of the protocol does and gaim doesn't use this version yet. If that's the case, then there's nothing I can do. You just have to wait until gaim gets the new version of the MSN protocol. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Martin (deeopey) Date: 2006-04-20 17:03 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=1487399 How do you get this to work on MSN, at the moment, the status just says available where as Yahoo has the proper setting. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Reuben Balik (cybrguyrsb) Date: 2006-04-13 17:11 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=199447 Probably not. The aliases are only viewable by you, so there doesn't seem to be much of a point. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Jeffrey04 (jeffrey04) Date: 2006-04-13 08:39 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=1233004 will the future version allow the tags to be included in alias? ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Reuben Balik (cybrguyrsb) Date: 2006-04-13 08:35 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=199447 No. Just away message, available message, and user info. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Jeffrey04 (jeffrey04) Date: 2006-04-13 05:21 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=1233004 can i use the tags in my alias? ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Reuben Balik (cybrguyrsb) Date: 2006-03-31 13:38 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=199447 Version 0.5 has been released! This version includes support for multiple accounts and for the new version of foobar. (It will only work with the new version of foobar actually) I also tried to fix the bug with non-ASCII characters, but I'm not sure if I actually did, so let me know if there are still problems. Download and enjoy. Donations always welcome ;) ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Reuben Balik (cybrguyrsb) Date: 2006-03-24 11:50 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=199447 Yes. At the moment, the plugin can only handle one account at a time. It will only attach itself to the first account that signs in and ignore the rest. The next version will have multiple account support. Sorry for the inconvenience. Check back in a few weeks for updates on the next version. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Justin Otten (f0ad) Date: 2006-03-23 18:22 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=1394653 I can't seem to get this plugin to work fully, I have Gaim v2.0b2 and Winamp v5.12. I have checked to make sure the plugin is enabled and i have restarted gaim twice. I enter "(mi)Listening To: %so% by %ar%(/mi)" into either an away message and/or an available message. I have 5 accounts active. 1 AIM, 2 Yahoo, 1 Jabber and 1 MSN. Only one of my accounts gets parsed (one of the yahoo). The other four display the exact string above verbatim. It appears to not be able to handle more than one account at a time. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Reuben Balik (cybrguyrsb) Date: 2006-03-03 11:17 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=199447 0.4.1 is out. This fixes that bug listed below. It's only a bug-fix release. No new features yet. Download from the website and enjoy. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Reuben Balik (cybrguyrsb) Date: 2006-03-01 22:12 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=199447 haha, found my first bug in 0.4. If you change from available to away or vice-versa it won't update until the song changes. Not that big a deal, but just wanted to let you guys know. I'll have it fixed by next week hopefully. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Reuben Balik (cybrguyrsb) Date: 2006-03-01 22:00 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=199447 I have released Version 0.4! It has a ton of cool new stuff so be sure to go to the website and try it out. Let me know of any bugs. I did a pretty thorough test, but I made a bunch of changes to the code so I'm expecting at least a couple bugs to pop up. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Reuben Balik (cybrguyrsb) Date: 2006-02-28 16:49 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=199447 Could you email me your screen name?

Hmm, are you sure the plugin is enabled and that it is the correct version for Gaim 2.0? Go to Tools->Plugins and make sure that MusicInfo isn't grayed out and that the box next to it is checked. You'll probably have to Sign off and sign back on when you enable it. If it is grayed out that means you downloaded the wrong version. Go to the website and download the one that I linked to in my update at the top of the page. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: jim grumbles (snadsnad) Date: 2006-02-28 12:55 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=849440 Where may I find the protocol information? I tried all of that stuff as well. Restarted both gaim and winamp and let winamp play for a minute or two. Here's what it says when I view my own profile: (mi)I am listening to %so% by %ar%(/mi)(ns)I am not listening to music at the moment(/ns) I place it there via Accounts -> <account name -> Set User Info Thanks for the help. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Reuben Balik (cybrguyrsb) Date: 2006-02-28 11:18 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=199447 What protocol are you using? Did you try restarting gaim after enabling the plugin? Sometimes that helps. Also make sure to wait about 30 seconds after changing your profile for it to be updated by the plugin. Add yourself to your buddy list, right click on yourself and copy the info that shows up. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: jim grumbles (snadsnad) Date: 2006-02-28 08:51 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=849440 Using gAim beta 2.0.0 beta and WinAmp 5.12.

This led to it updating the user info every 30 seconds even when it wasn't needed. I have posted version 0.3.1 on the website which fixes this problem. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- You can respond by visiting: https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&atid=390395&aid=1352645&group_id=235 ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Take Surveys.
