Sticktron Posted August 8, 2005 Share Posted August 8, 2005 (edited) These are the Samurize configs I've been using lately. You may have seen them in my July and August desktop thread posts. I've been getting several requests to share them, so here they are. There are three Samurize packages. If you have trouble installing them, you can rename them to *.zip and unzip them. Black Dashboard Deskband Now Playin' :cool: Here are the two configs in action: : :yes: *UPDATE... Nforce.nl changed their site a bit, and so the scripts need to be updated for the NFO News portion of the config to display properly. I've attached a zip file with the updates. Put them into your Samurize\Scripts folder. DeMo_NFOrce2.zip Edited September 17, 2005 by Sticktron Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sticktron Posted August 9, 2005 Author Share Posted August 9, 2005 Thanks for the comments. To can change the options for the CD covers, follow these steps: - open the config editor - select the album cover meter ("meter 24") - under Source, click on Global Settings, and the AMPI Plugin Configuration dialog box should pop up The AMPI plugin has a few methods of finding album covers. Firstly, it can be set to search online to download the covers as you play songs. Second, using the version of the plugin I have, you can use embedded cover art (in the tags). Thirdly, you can have it look for a cover in the same directory as the song you are playing. Choose your method, and set the options accordingly. I have AMPI set up to NOT download covers from the internet, because I have my music stored in one location, with different folders for each artist and album (iTunes takes care of this). I have a cover file in each folder called folder.jpg or folder.png, and AMPI finds these and uses them for the display. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jdb264c Posted August 11, 2005 Share Posted August 11, 2005 Sticktron, is there a way of putting a small Spectrum Analyzer in the Now Playin config? I have never used Samurize before, but when I mess around in the config window, there seems to be a spectrum plugin? Just curious... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sticktron Posted August 20, 2005 Author Share Posted August 20, 2005 Yes, a spectrum analyzer is possible, at least for winamp. Check the samurize.com downloads page for a sample you can copy, or check the forum for instructions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jdb264c Posted September 1, 2005 Share Posted September 1, 2005 Maybe a stupid question, but how can I speed up the way it displays the cover? Seems to be a lot slower than most other cover plugins. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sticktron Posted September 17, 2005 Author Share Posted September 17, 2005 Updated the NFO News scripts due to a change in the Nforce.nl website. See the first post for the file. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Oompa Posted September 17, 2005 Share Posted September 17, 2005 I just got an idea.. If you made the Black dashboard minimizable. Like click the title and it just shrinks to that bar. It would be a crap load of work but it would be sweet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
