great work!
I have some hardware from Creation (Creative Sound Blaster X-Fi Surround 5.1)... when I have more time I would like to try to use the remote to control this player (if not any other player)

Trout will respond to standard WinampAPI messages as well as a few commandline switches:

trout.exe /play
trout.exe /stop
trout.exe /next
trout.exe /prev
trout.exe /mute
trout.exe /clipboard

Sending a /play while Trout is playing will result in a pause.

I did not read everything here, but I would like to know what this "Audiogenie" thing is? Apart from that I am already happy with Winamp + Ahk automations for winamp, as I can play already there everything I want, and for what not I use KM Player which also uses Winamp API so all my ahk automations work in the same way also there.

In short I have no reason to switch from Winamp to anywhere else. But the pictures look o.k. in the first post, but music is mainly about sound, so while listening I actually do not want to see anything, just sending commands what it should do, e.g. adding the current playing track to my favourites playlist if I like it, and if I do not like the current track it should remove it from the current playlist and go to next song.

Also does Trout support VST plugins, which Winamp does?

From my perspective I would put the Trout project into the "wasted ahk coding skills" cagetory as I can not see the big difference to other already available solutions like I described above, Winamp. Wouldn't it be more original to create something not existing yet instead of getting more or less a copy of functionality available elsewhere? Anyway, in terms of sound I think we have too few solutions in the ahk forums so far imo, and I love sound.

Special greetings to majkinetor from here because he loves also sound.

@automaticman

Sometimes it's more about the journey than the destination.

AudioGenie is the tag library that Trout uses for all tag reading/writing under 2k/XP/Vista. http://www.audiogenie.net

No.

As stated before:
1) Foobar is my main audio player.
2) I started Trout because I wanted a simpler player that would supplement my listening habits with Foobar.
3) I do not like skinned applications e.g. Winamp.
4) I wanted to see how far AutoHotkey, as a language, could be taken in this endeavour.

If this were the case, there would be only one of everything. Here's a thought... Winamp wasn't the first mp3 player around.

skwire thanks for all your comments, I wish you good luck and lots of fun with Trout.

Just to open up new thought directions, given the power of AHK, why do we have the need for normal playlists? Or asked in another way after loading one playlist how often are you changing it after this operation, let us say within the next 1hour? I would assume most users do not change this playlist at all, which would result in a kind of static playlist. Can we also think in the direction of how we could make playlists more dynamic during the listening process? For me having static playlists is a very boring concept having the power of AHK.

Except for a proof-of-concept AHK script, Trout is the only real audio player on my system and it does its job.

The main difference between Trout and that 'W' player (I wouldn't even spell its name) is that skwire - Trout's author - has been kind enough to restore and maintain Win9x compatibility for as little as two people around this board (me being one of them), while the army of AOL developers preferred to drop compatibility long ago, leaving a lot of unfixed bugs in the latest 9x-compatible version.

So thank you skwire for your continuous work & kindness and boo to AOL and their [...] player.

Great. Thanks for testing. =]

Personally, I don't use playlists at all for normal music listening. My music collection is made up on only full albums that are fully tagged (no single, stray tracks). They're all in strict directory structure that I've used for many years. Also, my collection is far too large to keep "stored" in Trout's list (80,000+ tracks). So, basically, I "browse" my collection with my preferred file manager and simply choose a few albums to listen to. Honestly, I rarely keep more than 40-60 tracks in Trout at any given time. Also, I hardly ever listen in any sort of random mode; I much prefer to listen to an album in its entirety. If I can't decide what to listen to, I have a script that will randomly pick ten albums from my collection and load them into Trout. Back to playlists... The only playlist I use is one that I save my favourite online streaming stations to. So, like you it seems, I'm not playlist person, either.

You're welcome. No need to bang on Winamp, though. It's a great player. That said, it's not my kind of player. =]
