Modifying Winamp

[gprime]

(Not coding per say, but listed here because it involves editing of code).

Now, I'm not sure how many of you use Winamp (http://www.winamp.com/). Personally, I hate it, and thus don't use it. But given how popular it is, I assume most of you have it installed at the very least. And I imagine most of you use http://youtube.com/. I'm sure some of you use Pandora (http://pandora.com/) as well. Wouldn't you like to be able to play both Youtube and Pandora from your Winamp player?

If so, do the following:

In Notepad open the file C:\Program Files\Winamp\Plugins\ml\ml_online.ini



Replace this line

ElementID10=-1

with

ElementID10=7000
ElementIcon10=11003
ElementSubbed10=1
ElementName10=Pandora
ElementURL10=http://www.pandora.com?cmd=mini
ElementID11=-1


Then:

While C:\Program Files\Winamp\ Plugins\ml\ml_online.ini is still open:

Add (to the bottom of the file):


ElementId11=8000
ElementIcon11=11002
ElementSubbed11=1
ElementName11=Youtube
ElementURL11=http://youtube.com/?cmd=mini

You should also remove this line: ElementID10=-1, save the file, and restart Winamp.

Of course to do these, you'll need the latest version of Winamp (http://www.winamp.com/player/). (Not tested with Winamp Pro.)

I don't have it. I use Media Player Classic for everything Visual. :)

Difference between use MP classic and normal WMP?
