I'm not exactly sure, but if you havent tried it and would like to see a very stable and almost finished build, go here. This version is a self-installing executable.

and if you like it, update to that last build Carlos just posted about here

It should work for everyone but me:DD

New build (18 Jun 2005):

The main feature is that WCC can follow Winamp window state (minimize, restore, exit).

E.g. if you minimize Winamp WCC will be minimized too. If you restore it... If you exit it...

To test the new feature go to "Options>Player" and check "Follow player window state".

Don't uninstall beta 8! If you need it get it here: http://fileforum.betanews.com/detail/Winam...se/1109367710/1

This is a great program and I have been using it for a while but the only "problem" I have with it is that I do play a CD the Album look Up feature kicks in and tries to download a cover for it. I don't know if you added the feature in one of the later builds (didn't read the rest of the posts) but if you could add some kind of option for not looking for covers when a CD is playing it would be a perfect program in my eyes.

Can we have a "Pin to Desktop" Feature? And please bring back the "Exit when player ended..)

The exit is working along with the new feature. Do you need "Exit" apart from minimize and restore?

Another small glitch I noticed.

When using the "glow" skin, song titles aren't always appropriately aligned in the notifier thus leading to this:

Go to "Skin Manager>Text>Text area position and size (pixels)" and increase the "Reduce size by" setting (e.g. 32). Manage the "Left" setting could give you a better area too. Finally, when the case zoom is reduced uncheck "Center text" si also better. Try some settings!

Is there a way to make it read the cover from the folder above?

For example:

My Music\Album Name\CD1\Track 01.mp3

My Music\Album Name\folder.jpg

And when I think that I've seen all ways to organize songs and covers... A new one shows up! Unfortunately there is no way to maake WCC read this location. Sorry!

Yeah, that works okay. I just thought it might automatically abbreviate those long names using "..." instead once a title doesn't quite fit in. Cause it seems to be that way in the other skin styles like "Milk" which I used the days before.

In regurads to my last post, instead of having an option to turn it off make it so that it doesn't search for it right away make it wait for the CDDB look up to get done. I also have another question, when it does do a look up for a CD and puts it in the Covers folder how does it get the file name because it gets it wrong frequently--if I could put one in there I like/works it would be better then having WCC tring to find it every minute.
