Title: Winamp In-Game
Post by: Kitsune on June 12, 2008, 05:08:29 am
I have been looking around for a program/addon to do something like this with no success. What I want is to be able to see what is playing in Winamp when I'm in a full screen game. I'm thinking of something that would work in a similar way to Steam Friends or Team Speak Overlay.

Dunno if it will work, but try using Always on top, turn on Notifications (in modern skins only i think) and minimize Winamp. Then it should show the title and artist when changing songs.

I tried doing lots of things such as different combinations with the settings and window mode but I could not get it to work, always GTASA was ontop of the song ticker.

However, I did manage to find a way to do this alternatively, but that was using windowed mode (ALT+ENTER during gameplay). The only problem now is my windowed mode toggling is really bugged and as soon as I toggled to windowed mode with the ALT+ENTER, it shows a few black flashes, the desktop momentarily, then just returns back to fullscreen mode. I don't know why the windowed mode worked the one time earlier today but now it is not working at all. I did not have this problem on the other computer I played on, windowed mode always came up when I did the ALT+ENTER. Any ideas on how to get my windowed mode working?

I think I figured the window mode problems, If I ALT+ENTER straight after loading of game, it usually works. Still couldn't get ticker working fullscreen though.

I got the same tbh.
Left one (19") is the main one where games are displayed, right one (15") has Winamp on it.
