I'm trying to create a winamp control using dynamp, using only one button to play/pause the current song.
the play and pause buttons were created using layercut, with the pause button group starting hidden.
However, on a !recycle, the play button would be showing, even if winamp were already playing a song.
So i was thinking about using mzscripts Start command to do a search with one.dll (v0.7) for the "Winamp [Stopped]" or "Winamp [Paused]" title to show/hide the corresponding buttons.



(the !about and !none commands were used for testing)
However, it doesn't do anything, wathever is the status of the current song on winamp.
So.. am I doing anything wrong here?

isn't there a !amp_playpause ?

@tnl: Yes it is. But he wants to know if winamp is playing or paused.

@Vorlon:
- Use the good syntax of !one (check the docs). "[Stopped]" might conflicts with the [] expected by !one. In your script, [!about] is the [not found command] and [!none] the [found command] lol

- Use the right Winamp WindowClass (Winamp v1.x) Hum... maybe this can change depending on the skin in use (with winamp5)

- If you want total control of your player, switch to foobar (.8.1 because .8.2 has a broken command line support)

Actually, I tried to do the exact same command using the !one bang on a popup and it worked fine, but for some reason it doesn't do anything when its called from mzscript

oh sorry, in that case xLabel or xLabelLight should be able to do it. Create a dummy hidden label that refreshes often, whose text is "[winampStatus]". Have its onTextChange event call a scripted bang to !labelmzscriptvarcopy its text and then show the appropriate shortcutgroup.

I found the error... while testing I started to put the mzscript directly into my theme.rc, but forgot to add mzScriptUseStep (...)
Thanks for the help guys!
