Power Hour Plugin

[chandlerou]

I've looked but cannot find any plugins that would do the job. Gen_Intro is close but no cigar. If your not familiar with "Power Hour" basically you drink shots of "soda" every minute. I wanted to know if anyone knew of a plugin that would switch songs every minute, but to the middle of the song somewhere?

Hmmm.. power hour? Around here we refer to it is idiocy and also sudden death for obvious reasons :P

Well this idiocy seems to be kinda popular if Im not the only person to ask about it! Still, anyone have any suggestions?

I was talking about the shot thing. I have no clue about the plugin.

I actually found a plugin, well ... more like a little 3rd party executable that does that... But what about skipping to the good parts of the songs? The begining of most songs are usually slow and dull. Any suggestions?

Skinning can be of help to you. A skin can easily fo that. All that we need to do is set a timer of a small delay that checks current time every going second, compares it with initial value and switch songs using System.Play(); when it encounters the one-minute tag.

Moreover, for going to the middle part of the song... the skin can forward the song by a orescribed time amount.

Damn easy to make such a skin.

A Skin can do this? The "Power Hour" Skin? I am pretty fluent in C/C++. I just need to read the documentation and familiarize myself with Winamp's code. If you can list specific functions I should use, that would be really helpfull.
