AutoHotkey Community

I've added this page to the web site and help file that demonstrates Winamp automation. I use Winamp 2.78c myself, so only tested it out on that version. If any of you use Winamp and have an interest, take a look and let me know if you spot an areas for improvement.

Thanks to Rajat for his help with this.

thanks

but in new winamp, there is global hotkeys already you can program

but I see this is an older thread lol, I just wanted to point that out.... no one ever turns on their global hotkeys LOL

I made a hotkey script for the hotkeys of winamp so i could schedule playing, stopping, pausing etc

Man, how could i've NEVER noticed that we could program them???

omg.... hilarious.... after lots of reading and making my own ahk file work, i read that... hehehehe....

sorry to bump this old topic, but i'm laughing of myself a lot now for not knowing that...

thanks for the hint!!

I still like to have my own AHK toolbar at the bottom of the screen so I can add extras like a button to open my playlists folder as well as the normal buttons for minimizing increasing/decreasing volume etc.

I prefer using the winamp function library from jballi. Hotkeys can be troublesome if you have several apps running, so I try to avoid them.

Winamp does not need to be active to control it and you can use any input method, even hotkeys if you wish. I use the USBUIRT function library or TheGood's AHKHID function library depending on which remote I pick up. To simplify things all these libraries and more are included in my Easy Automation script.
