Control Winamp (just to play one song)

First I must say: great forum and great product!

My problem: Using latest housebot version trial (and want to buy it if this works) and winamp 5.5. And yes, I have used the search function and spent hours to try all the advises I found:

I want to play a song through winamp to test and then using a winamp playlist. So I put the song name and path in winamp device control in the field 'play file name' and changed the A/V status to playing. Winamp loads/starts but only says NONE or LINE in the playlist. (I understand that housebot and winamp playlists are different. I can manage playlists in winamp but want at least play the songs through housebot.)

Please advise
Ben

I just had this problem. But when I put the "Gen_WinAmpProxy.dll" in the winamp plugins folder and restarted both winamp and housebot it worked.
I can now enter the full path and filename in the "play source" property and winamps plays that file.
