Winamp Toolbar for XP/2000/98 - yes, it's true.


Recommended Posts

i've yet to see this posted on Neowin (or anyone's screenshot for that matter), so i thought i'd share it with you guys. it isn't complete as the other toolbar player for winamp (which has a seek bar), this one is infinitely cooler simply because you can change the graphics around :)

the file is located here - http://www.winamp.com/plugins/detail.jhtml...mponentId=82271

If you want to change the graphics of the buttons like how i did on the screenshot at the bottom (lower left-hand corner), you'll need to hack into it using Reshacker and changing the bitmap - there's only one there.

[HKEY_CURRENT_USERControl PanelDesktopWindowMetrics]

"MinWidth"="-x" replace the x with the width of your taskbar area multiplied by 15.

while my screen resolution is 1280 in width, the taskbar area where the buttons go are only 748 pixels wide (buttons, start menu and system tray take up the rest). multiply that by 15 and you get 11220

hmmm, not trying to be rude, ;) but this been around for a long time. i've had those in all my screenshots since around november... Also, i've figured out a way to get the playlist to toggle, if you are interested, let me know.

cheers,

There is no "MinWidth" key. There is a "MenuWidth" key though. Is that what you meant?

you need to create MinWidth key.

thanx Scorcho for this tip, i love my buttons full width :)

actualy i just put -19200 and everything worked fine.

i wonder if this value will still work if i use xp themes, not classic. also would be sweet to have text centered on taskbar buttons;)

hmmm, I swear we had a set of winamp executable already...

Like BroChaos said, the exe's have been around for a while, although this does seem to look a little different.
