The best way to create...

[Didonet]

Hello

I'm wondering about one program, and I need your help.

In my school there will be a music radio, which will be one computer (with winamp) and one speaker in each room.

...and I'm the one who have to create the software to turn off the radio for 5 minutes (for the breaks), and turn it on for 45 minutes(for the lessons).

what should I use? Adlibenable, or while, or...?

Can you recommend me something? :]

I think you should try with adlibenable

I'm pretty sure Winamp has some remote plugins where you can manage it through a web interface.

We need to stop and start winamp when the lessons stop and then start again.

Not someone to start/stop the music. The program to do it itself
