I’ve been fiddling with the AMIP plugin. Got v2 working with Winamp 5 and followed the instructions to the letter regarding implementing the HTTP bridge between Winamp / AMIP / CURL and a simple PHP script.

Damn cool actually. CURL runs in the background and uploads (HTTP POST) track / artist / album / bitrate to a small snippet of php code. The information gets written to a .txt file and then read back whenever the main file is called by the parser. Couldn’t be more simple, yet it works like a charm. The only thing missing would be an actual playlist but I thought that would be kind of overkill.

The result is now included in the main design, only not in Nucleus. I.e. this page. But that is just a temporary thing. There are no script problems. It’s just that I’m not sure if I want to show every bit of information on every damn page. Until I get that straight, the code will be fragmented over various parts of this site.
