Hello,

I have just joined this forum. For the last 10 days I have been looking around for a Java plug-in that would help me access / control Winamp 2 and 3. I have to write a program(s) using this Java plug-in that should be able to:

- Returns a list of all media files that Winamp is aware of
- Returns a list of all playlists
- Returns the current state of this media player
- Returns the currently playing file
- Returns the name of the playlist that is currently playing
- Return a value from 0 to +127 for the Volume
- Starts playing a given file
- Stops Winamp
- Pauses Winamp
- Sets the volume to a given level
- Starts playing the playlist with a given name
- Plays the next song in the currently playing playlist
- Plays the previous song in the currently playing playlist

After my desperate search all over the internet, I stumbled across to Girder and I feel it holds promise for me!

If I am right, can anyone help me by telling me whether all the above can be done and point me to the correct file I need to download from this site?

All help most appreciated.

Thanks.

I can do this with Media Center 9 (JRiver) and girder but I do not enough about Winamp to know if this is possible.

This works but using Girder's scripting language LUA, LuaCOM and Media Center's COM API.

No Java...
