[voks]

Known bugs:

1. mp3ad+ only works with one mIRC instance at the same time. If you start a second mIRC instance you'll probably get this message on start: *** Failed to start AMIP Server =([/*:m:12ch8q1e]
2. mp3ad+ doesn't work, if port 60333 or 60334 are used by any other application than AMIP.[/*:m:12ch8q1e]
3. Songchange is not being recognized if artist and title are the same as before. (not fixable)[/*:m:12ch8q1e]
4. I don't know more... do you? Then contact me![/*:m:12ch8q1e]

[octel]

I found something cool.

You can use $iif to check whether a variable is filled or not and echo depending on it..
Here's my announce as an example.

<fext>:<name> (<len>) $iif(<album>,(<album>)) $iif(<year>,(<year>)) $iif(<genre>,(<genre>))

If someone does !sendmp3 to me, i start sending the song but only at 8kb/sec, when I normally use DCC send, I send at 50kb/sec.

How can i get the limit off?

There was a discussion about it here:
http://nnscript.de/forum/viewtopic.php?t=9053

But I don't know a solution... I'm just using the normal dcc command...

That's already on my todo list. :-)
For the meanwhile:
http://markushenn.de/forum/viewtopic.php?p=3500#3500

percentage:

$mp3+.amip.var(prc)

or

$round($calc($hget(mp3ad+.song,psec)/$hget(mp3ad+.song,17)*100),0)

edit: just found out that in some songs it shows äöå letters like they should be but in some songs it just puts letter "d" where should be äöå.

That's probably because of the unicode tags these special songs are using. See the AMIP forum for more details.

[holtmann]

Here is my string

foobar2000: $iif(<artist>,<artist> - $iif(<album>,[<album> $iif(<track>,$chr(35)<track>)]) <title>,<name>) $iif(<len>,[<len>]) @ <bits>kbps $iif(<len>,,@ <fname>)

any way to fix this?

Sorry, couldn't reproduce it. "$hort" is displayed here. Any other one who can or can't?

I have a problem with the player. I type in /load -rs mp3ad+\mp3ad+.mrc and the box comes up, I click Add, (Under Media Players) find Foobar2000, select it but then a message pops up saying "AMIP is not installed in D:\Program Files\foobar2000\components", therefore mp3ad+ can't work"

Yet, I've downloaded AMIP for foobar2000 and extracted it to that folder, help?

The AMIP zip file you downloaded contains a exe file, which is a installation file. Just run this and it will guide you through the installation.

Detailed AMIP installation instructions can be found on the AMIP website.

With mp3ad+, you can't, because I think that nobody is interested in every song that you're playing. AMIP has this feature, but I don't give support for that and I won't tell you how that works.

I prefer advertising by pressing a key.

"mm:ss" stands for "minutes:seconds" here. I don't really know where this info is saved, perhaps it's from the ID3 tag. I just wrote "ID3v1 & ID3v2" everywhere where there's no unit of measure.
But if you really want to know it, you have to ask in the AMIP forum, because AMIP reads all the song data.

[quote=Whatsup]How can I fix that mp3ad+ will show

I play songs that names are cyrilic. Some songs are shown right, but some not (look @ pic). I don't know where could be the trouble. Please help if it is posible.

btw i tried it in AIMP and Winamp 5

That's probably because of the unicode tags these special songs are using. See the AMIP forum for more details.

Your player probably has unicode support, but AMIP doesn't yet.

[fusen]

hey, I'm getting an error with mp3ad+

* /tokenize: line too long (line 245, mp3ad+.mrc)

and that code line is

tokenize 127 $1-

happens when a song that has a long path is played? I think
any idea how to fix it?
