I like Winamp5 visualization.

I'd like to built Winamp5 into web-page, but as i know the existing ActiveX elements can't provide visualization-control.

So i'd like to know, is it possible to control opened winamp5 programm from IE6 ?

Thx.

Afaik its not possible, but there is a java mp3/ogg player that can use winamp skins i think. Mabye theres a way to use visuals from windows media player since it has activex controls.

Polywaffle, thank you for answer.

I know many things about a WindowsMediaPlayer ActiveX objects.

But i don't like WMP visualization - it's too poor...

you can start/stop/fullscreen the visualisations on the server machine from IE6 using ml_www (http://www.sf.net/projects/mlwww)

Is that what you mean? if you mean embed the visualisation content into a web page then that's harder (impossible?) without a special web-enabled visualisation (?).
