A good idea for a plugin would be a mini basic like interpreter with commands such as plotpixel, line, circle, text, and other such commands that will allow for quick display access, and to quickly test other people's scripts. I possible the interpreter plugin should be open source to allow easy modification to exhance and improve the plugin.

Which winamp version are you using ? I think the EQ interface can be arranged in the winamp plugin. You mean the winamp EQ ? That stop/restart computer menu could be implemented with some kind action plugin. I think the playlist support could also be included in the winamp plugin in some point (if that's possible). But we would also need some way to control all this. What are you using for controlling everything ?

All this will be some work so don't expect it in the next release
But I'll try to keep this in mind while planning the plugin interfaces.

What kind scripts should it be able to run ? Scripts that plot pixels, lines, text, etc. ?

Ok, this sounds like a fun idea but I don't think I personally will have time for this very soon.

If you want, you can make a more detailed specification how it should work and I'll see what kind access to the frame buffer would be needed.

I'am using Winamp 2.8x.
Yes i speek about the 10 band EQ of Winamp.
I'm controling all the coputeur with an IR remote on the serial port, and i can use an other soft to send key to a soft.

If I can have informations , should be that with some friends we would made a plugin and with your Help.

I can provide more information when I have something to show. With what I have in my mind it should be possible to make something like this.

Hi @ all!

maybe you find some impressions in this Page: www.jalcds.de
A Programm like this would be nice.

It would be nice you add a "fullscreen watch" and some of the Plugins shown on the Page above.

thx

Acid.

Just something which came to my mind. Are you planning to have just data input from plugins, or will you be able to add new controllers with plugins? (That actually sounds a bit hard, as the plugin would have to do LCDInfo's work...)

Data input and display drivers are plugins at the moment.

What's this ?

Is there going to be support for hd61830 in LCDinfo v0.5?

That's the plan. I haven't yet done a HD61830 driver but as the drivers are plugins in separate DLL's it will be kinda separate project from the main LCDInfo. If anyone would like to help I can provide some sample HD61830 code and the LCDInfo driver interface code. There will still be some changes to the interface but the basics should be done now.

It would be nice if it was possible to put two or more text fields in the same line without the first field "pushing" the others while text length changes.
Some type of values are already fixed length, but, for example, all percentage values could also be fixed-length.

For example, I have the following code in my ini-file:

Aha, I guess you mean a fullscreen clock ?

This is already possible in 0.3.2.

In the 0.5 there will no more be "lines" but instead there are fields that have a specified length. You can put these to the x,y position you want. Text in the field can be justified to left, rigth or center. Also scrolling is possible.

How about Noritake 800A grapic display support? A lot of these babies are starting to circulate.
