I'm checking to see if you guys know of a plugin or program that I can use as a media library OSD for Winamp. I haven't been able to make my own in Girder, I think I would have to be able to program in vbasic/c++ in order to do it.
I want a versitle Winamp OSD that will allow me to to enqueue, remove, and reposition songs in my currently playing playlist. I've already made an osdbuilder menu of all my songs in my music folder, but it can't allow me to manipulate the playlist contents the way I want to.
I'm still a noob at programming and my basic understanding of lua is the most complex language I know.

I am sure you could do this with luacom and the internetexplorer com object. But you need to HTML well, which I dont!

search here using "internetexplorer" and you will find several threads on using it. If this is what you want to try, start a new thread on it. You basically can use it to desgn any kind of gui/frontend you want. You must know HTML, COM, though! But it'll be way easier the learning c

The COM side is EASY once you have a look at the example files. The REAL EXPERT is fatherofmonstermagnet :)
If you can design the pages we can help with COM side. I know he will be interested in the project.

I found a winamp plugin called "Remote Control Plugin"(obvious, ain't it?). The plugin has a realy nice OSD interface. It was designed to work with WinLirc, but it has a completely custimizible hotkey and button setup. The help file even mentions girder as an alternative in it.
I'll post a gml file when I've perfected a good setup.
I also found a plugin called WinampConsoleControl which allows you send commands to winmp using dos. I think this could be a very useful tool with girder.

Actually, there is a better plugin that lets you use winamp from a com interface.
