Name/Title: Winamp Automation Library (Winamp 2.x +).

Description:
38 Functions to handle Winamp Media Player (http://winamp.com).
This library written base on the SDK that provided at Wanamp's home page: http://www.winamp.com/development/sdk

Version: 1.5
Requirements: AutoIt 3.2.10.0 or higher, Winamp 2.x or higher.
Note: This UDF Library tested on Winamp v5.x.

There is video available that shows how i started this UDF, the basic functions creation process
Watch the video and download the library here


^New! Now compatible with AutoIt v3.3.0.0+.
=====================================================

Change Log:

v1.5 [16.12.2010]
* _Winamp_GetCurrentTrackInfo now returns an array as it should have:
0: Sample Rate in khz, 1: Bitrate, 2: Number of Channels, 3: Video LOWORD=w HIWORD=h, 4: Video Description, 5: Sample rate in hz
+ Added 4 new UDFs (thanks to Erion):
_Winamp_GetPan
_Winamp_SetPan
_Winamp_GetEq
_Winamp_SetEq

v1.4 [22.May.2009]
* The library now compatible with AutoIt v3.3.0.0.
* Added optional $h_Winamp_Wnd parameter to all functions that sends message to winamp's window - It should allow to manage multiple winamp instances.
(by default the handle is taken from $sWINAMP_CLASS).

v1.3 [19.May.2008]
The library now compatible with AutoIt v3.2.12.0.

Added UDF: _Winamp_ClearPlayList()
Added UDF: _Winamp_GetCurrentTrackFilePath()
Changed _Winamp_GetPlayListToArray() function.
Now it return a 2 dimensional array, where [0][0] is the element of current track, [n][0] is the track title, and [n][1] is the track file path.

* Fixed UDF _Winamp_GetCurrentTrackTitle(), with $iMode <> -1 it was not returning correct track position.

v1.2 [15.May.2008]
_Winamp_GetCurrentTrackOutputTime() function now always will return output time in milliseconds.
Now if $iMode = -1 (default) function return current position, if <> -1 it return song lenght.
Added UDF: _Winamp_GetVolume()

=====================================================

I know that lot of functions needs to be added, so please let me know what is missing, and i will try to add them .

P.S
There is already available Winamp Automation Library by big_daddy, very good library, but that library required ActiveWinamp installation.

REALY NICE!!

i added to the sample code

Local $iRandom_Song = Random(0, $iTotalSongs-1, 1)
_Winamp_Play($iRandom_Song)

;We wait untill the song starting to play...
While _Winamp_GetCurrentTrackPlayStatus() <> 1
Sleep(100)
WEnd

Sleep(100)

;; get current playtime in sec now.. -->
While _Winamp_GetCurrentTrackPlayStatus() = 1
ConsoleWrite(_Winamp_GetCurrentTrackOutputTime(0) / 1000 & @crlf)
Sleep(200)
WEnd


Local $iTrack_Lenght = _Winamp_GetCurrentTrackOutputTime(2)
_Winamp_Seek(Ceiling($iTrack_Lenght/2))
EndFunc

maybe the function _GetCurrentTrackOutputTime could be rewritten to get actual playing position in hrs:min:sec.fract as in media player ( i will do when i have time..)

[James]

Very nice! I am so jealous of your skills!

[nobbe]

ok i done it now - i added "GetCurrentTrackPlayPos"


;We wait untill the song starting to play...
While _Winamp_GetCurrentTrackPlayStatus() <> 1

WEnd

Sleep(100)

;; get current playtime in sec now..

ConsoleWrite(_Winamp_GetCurrentTrackOutputTime(0) / 1000 & @crlf)

ConsoleWrite(_Winamp_GetCurrentTrackPlayPos() & @crlf)
Sleep(200)
WEnd

Local $iTrack_Lenght = _Winamp_GetCurrentTrackOutputTime(2)
;_Winamp_Seek(Ceiling($iTrack_Lenght/2))

I see a cleaner version of my PlaylistToArray function in there, nice work. Thanks for the inclusion though, that script was a pain.

[MrCreatoR]

Thanks to all for the feedbacks!

@nobbe

ok i done it now - i added "GetCurrentTrackPlayPos"

Thanks, but actualy _Winamp_GetCurrentTrackOutputTime() can return the current position (with the default $iMode).
I think it's needs only one more parameter to return the position in specific time format:

ConsoleWrite(_Winamp_GetCurrentTrackOutputTime(1, "hh:mm:ss:ms"))

I need help to build one more function; _Winamp_GetVolume(). There is already _Winamp_SetVolume(), so it's fair enought that the library will include function to get the winamp's volume.
The SDK says this:

// these messages are callbacks that you can grab by subclassing the winamp window

// wParam =
....
....

#define IPC_CB_MISC_VOLUME 1 // volume/pan

So i guess that there is need to do some subclassing with these ... but how?

Wow. This is amazing.

I see a cleaner version of my PlaylistToArray function in there, nice work. Thanks for the inclusion though, that script was a pain.

Yes, this function helped me for few of mine's, thanks for that one!

[nobbe]

good work with the time display

- is it possible to delete one or all entries in the playlist ? i would like to add only one file and play only one file - then delete this file from playlist - then play another file etc..

[MrCreatoR]

Update:

v1.2 [15.May.2008]
_Winamp_GetCurrentTrackOutputTime() function now always will return output time in milliseconds.
Now if $iMode = -1 (default) function return current position, if <> -1 it return song lenght.
Added UDF: _Winamp_GetVolume() (thanks to rasim that found a quit simple solution).

[MrCreatoR]

good work with the time display

I decided to return only milliseconds, i think the function should return the optimal value, so the user can do with it whatever he needs to.

is it possible to delete one or all entries in the playlist ?

I am not sure about one, but to clear the playlist use this:

Global Const $IPC_DELETE                = 101 ;Clear the PlayList

_Winamp_ClearPlayList()

Func _Winamp_ClearPlayList()
    Local $hWinamp = WinGetHandle($sWINAMP_CLASS)
    If Not IsHWnd($hWinamp) Then Return SetError(1, 0, 0)
    
    DllCall("user32.dll", "int", "SendMessage", "hwnd", $hWinamp, "int", $WM_WA_IPC, "int", 0, "int", $IPC_DELETE)
    
    If @error Then Return SetError(2, 0, 0)
    
    Return 1
EndFunc

@weaponx
Maybe you can help me with this one - i wanted to change the function _WinapGetPlayListToArray(), so it will return 2 dementional array, where [0] is the track title, and [1] is the track full file path.

Here is what i tried base on this thread:

Const $IPC_GETPLAYLISTFILEW = 215
Const $IPC_GETLISTPOS = 125

$hWinamp = WinGetHandle($sWINAMP_CLASS)
$iWinamp_PID = WinGetProcess($hWinamp)

$iCurrent_Track = DllCall("user32.dll", "int", "SendMessage", "hwnd", $hWinamp, "int", $WM_WA_IPC, "int", 0, "int", $IPC_GETLISTPOS)

__API_GetInfoByAddress(0, 0)

$pAddress = DllCall("user32.dll", "int", "SendMessage", _
    "hwnd", $hWinamp, "int", $WM_WA_IPC, "int", $iCurrent_Track[0], "int", $IPC_GETPLAYLISTFILEW)

$sFile_Path = __API_GetInfoByAddress($pAddress[0], $iWinamp_PID)

ConsoleWrite($sFile_Path)

But it's return an empty string

If we use IPC_GETPLAYLISTFILEA (214), then it return only the first character. Any ideas?

OK, i think i found a solution - i only needed to use IPC_GETPLAYLISTFILEW = 211 instead of 215

Library Updated:

v1.3 [19.May.2008]
The library now compatible with AutoIt v3.2.12.0.

Added UDF: _Winamp_ClearPlayList()
Added UDF: _Winamp_GetCurrentTrackFilePath()
Changed _Winamp_GetPlayListToArray() function.
Now it return a 2 dimensional array, where [0][0] is the element of current track, [n][0] is the track title, and [n][1] is the track file path.

* Fixed UDF _Winamp_GetCurrentTrackTitle(), with $iMode <> -1 it was not returning correct track position.

See first post please.

Just letting you know. I downloaded your latest zip file and I get these errors with Autoit 3.2.12.0:

Yes, on syntax check there will be errors, but this function works Ok, it maybe works, but not properly... fixed ...

MsgBox(0, "", @AutoItVersion & @LF & Execute(Number(StringReplace(@AutoItVersion, ".", "")) <= 32100))

Edited by MrCreatoR, 19 May 2008 - 07:10 PM.

[weaponx]

I'm not trying to nitpick but you can't outright compare version numbers using standard operators, heres why.

Say you want to make sure the user has at least 3.2.10.0, in this format you have 32100.

Lets say I install future version 3.3.1.0, giving me 3310 with your code.

It will say my version is too low. Version numbers must be compared by octet and each octet must be padded so it aligns properly with its adjacent octet, ie...

3.3.01.0 = 33010
3.2.10.0 = 32100

This is what my script does in the link I provided.

[MrCreatoR]

I don't understand to be honest, if i strip all dots, and i use it as number, then it should be ok...

$Version_1 = Number(StringReplace("3.3.01.0", ".", "")) ; = 33010
$Version_2 = Number(StringReplace("3.2.10.0", ".", "")) ; = 32100

;$Version_1 = Number(StringReplace("3.2.8.0", ".", ""))
;$Version_2 = Number(StringReplace("3.2.12.0", ".", ""))

ConsoleWrite($Version_1 > $Version_2)

But later i will check your UDF more deeper, thanks.

Edited by MrCreatoR, 19 May 2008 - 08:25 PM.

[weaponx]

@AutoItVersion would return 3.3.1.0, not 3.3.01.0, most likely.

[MrCreatoR]

@weaponx
Ok, you are persuaded me - The archive re-uploaded.

But i changed the UDF a little (only the variable's names).

[therks]

I think perhaps it should be up to the user to supply the proper window handle to the functions. What if I have two Winamp windows open? How would I specify which window I want the functions to act on? Otherwise looks really good, it will be nice to have something that doesn't rely on ActiveWinamp.
