[Plugin] MusicMonkey: music playback via MediaMonkey

[cncb]

Unfortunately I don't see any way to display the Visualization window via the MediaMonkey API or global hotkeys. So, you would have to send keypresses to the MediaMonkey main window to display the Visualization window (Ctl+Alt+v to show window and Alt+Enter to make it full screen). At this point you would have to make sure NPVR gets focus when you close the visualization window. Sorry, I don't see any easy way to do it from NPVR.

Thanks for having a look - - - if ever it becomes available
Maybe we need a plugin to run winamp plugins in NPVR - I think mediaportal :eek: does.

It does seem that mediamonkey is less leaky than Winamp so may use it instead - standalone if vizualisations are required - your plugin otherwise.

v1.1 changes:

• Can add tracks to existing playlists and create new playlists
  
• Shows progress bar and playback time at bottom of browsing screen
  
• Now Playing list management (remove, reorder)
  
• Pandora stations (feed) and internet radio favorites can be browsed and launched in external browser
  
• Screensaver text can be customized and skins were tweaked to better handle longer titles
  

Also note the following to avoid some potential annoyances with recent versions of MediaMonkey:

• Disable file re-association: Tools | Options | General | OS Integration > Uncheck 'Re-associate File Types on startup' to avoid occasional UAC dialogs for 'COM Elevator' popping up behind NPVR and making it look frozen.
  
• Add the same file to a playlist twice and respond to the duplicate dialog and set it to not show again or it might pop up over NPVR forcing you to respond with a mouse.
