External Winamp Control

This is a simple way to add some functionality to Winamp.

“Nowadays, winamp have full support to keyboard shortcuts. But some time, when winamp didn’t have this feature, I was thinking in some way to make a easy way to change music by simply pressing one button, it would make things faster and would help me to change music during games. So I decided to make a external control painel, to make it easier to change musics, volume up or down, toggle shuffle and many other features by pressing just one button. I found one winamp plugin that shows how to configure a external control using the Serial Port, being able to make 4 or 15 buttons control. I decided to make this, step-by-step, how to do it, hope you enjoy.”

  4. oh gosh. I wish we were as cool and modern as you!
    I can SEE how adding negative and self-centered coomments has boosted your ego to the extent you can now lead a happy life—all at the peril of (hopefully-fingers crossed!) making someone else feel inferior.

    but you really should flog off if we are so “3 years ago” for you…
