HouseBot

I'm not going to need this feature for a while but it would be really nice to be able to control multiple instances of winamp through HouseBot. I'm going to be adding a multi-source/multi-zone whole house audio system in the future and wanted to have some of my sources be winamp.



Any chance of this happening?

Can you even start multiple versions of WinAmp on one machine? When I try and start a second, it switches to the first. Maybe there's an option somewhere to do this.



The plugin finds WinAmp by the name of its window class (and maybe the window title). I think if multiple versions used different window titles it might be possible, but I'm not sure. Let me know when you get to that point.

Scott,



I know you can run multiple instances of winamp. I haven't done this personally but on the HomeSeer board there are multiple people that do this. The thing I don't know is how to programmatically control the instances.



I'll be happy to help out when I get closer to putting in my whole house audio system.
