Another solution to missing embeded album artwork (no plugins or separate programs)

Been looking around and seeing this issue. Piecing together some information, I came up with a crazy way to get it to work. Time to give something back

What you get:
Files are untouched going from hard drive to device (I checked w/ file hasher) from Winamp without renaming a folder on android device, or another PC tool. Winamp will treat your android device as a standard USB device.

What you loose:
WiFi sync. I believe I break it. You got to go USB.

What will you need?
A hex editor, I used HxD.

Steps:
1) Close out Winamp
2) Browse to C:\Program Files\Winamp\Plugins (or Program Files (x86))
3) Rename / Relocate pmp_android.dll. Renaming to pmp_android.bak works. This will disable this plugin. Moving it out of the Plugins folder works as well.
4) Backup / make a copy of pmp_usb.dll
5) Open HxD, and open pmp_usb.dll
6) Search -> Find. Put in "android", select text string, and check "unicode". You will get one result.
7) Change 1 letter and save. I like Undroid (see pic below)
8) Open Winamp. It should detect your phone's SD card as a USB device, not an android.

So what happened? We disabled the android plugin, and modified the USB plugin's auto-blacklist search parameter. It was looking for Android or ipod_control to blacklist, now its looking for Undroid. Its been a while since I've coded, else I would've written a patcher. If someone wants to, more power to them.

Enjoy
