 Custom Variables within the Winamp Plugin. |
 |
Ok.. I'll admit.. it has been a damn long time since I wrote any code that wasn't pure html.
I'm trying to tie the various "state" indicators of the winamp plugin to animated gifs.
With the help of previous threads, I've managed to get the Playing/Paused/Stopped working.. yay!
However, I'm now banging my head agains the Shuffle variable.
Heres what I'm currently trying.
 |
 |
if ((Boolean)GetData("Winamp.Shuffle") = "False") return "0";
else return "1"; |
The error i'm getting is that I can't convert between the data types of string and bool..
This makes me think that i've got something fundamentally wrong, but I just can't see it.
Any chance of a helping hand?

change "False" to this ---> false (no quotation marks, all lowercase)

alright.. so heres the next question.
I've built a custom animation bar to display the percentage through the track currently playing.
However, i'm struggling with linking it to the datatype.
My animation only has 20 frames.. so I figure I have to divide the datatype.. but how do I divide it then link it to the gif?

| Bool |
|
And if you want the output to register as boolean, you should change the returns to true and false instead of "1" and "0", accordingly.

Alright.. so now i've got this:
|
|
Single played = ((Int32)GetData("Winamp.PlayingPct"));
played = played / 5;
return played; |
This however returns with decimals, which I dont want.. could someone tell me how to strip them out?

You need another =.
It should read
|
|
if ((Boolean)GetData("Winamp.Shuffle") == false) return "0"; |
