Winamp visuals control panel

[Russ]

Anyone still use Winamp to play .mp3 files?

The Milkdrop visuals are still the best - for example.

I built a TRIGGERcmd panel to control Winamp, including a set of my favorite visual "presets."

Here's a Youtube video showing how it works.

This is the panel:

The "Preset Favorite" panel buttons run my winamp_preset.bat script with the letter as the parameter, and uses nircmd to press a series of buttons to pick the preset that starts with that letter.

You can see here I copied some of my favorite presets to a folder called russ, and prefixed each one with a letter from a to h:

This my panel JSON:

[
  {
    "name": "Preset Favorite",
    "trigger": "DS | winamp preset",
    "params": "a,b,c,d,e,f,g,h"
  },
  {
    "name": "Next/Previous Preset",
    "trigger": "DS | winamp next/previous preset",
    "params": "previous,next"
  },
  {
    "name": "Volume",
    "trigger": "DS | winamp volume",
    "params": "up,down"
  },
  {
    "name": "Show Song Title",
    "trigger": "DS | winamp show title",
    "params": ""
  },
  {
    "name": "Presets List",
    "trigger": "DS | winamp preset folder",
    "params": "russ,all"
  },
  {
    "name": "Forward/Reverse",
    "trigger": "DS | winamp forward reverse",
    "params": "reverse,forward"
  }
]

My commands.json entries:

 {
  "trigger": "winamp preset",
  "command": "c:\\tools\\winamp_controller.bat",
  "offCommand": "",
  "ground": "foreground",
  "voice": "",
  "voiceReply": "",
  "allowParams": "true"
 },
 {
  "trigger": "winamp show title",
  "command": "nircmd sendkeypress t",
  "offCommand": "",
  "ground": "foreground",
  "voice": "",
  "voiceReply": "",
  "allowParams": "false"
 },
 {
  "trigger": "winamp preset folder",
  "command": "c:\\tools\\winamp_preset_folder.bat",
  "offCommand": "",
  "ground": "foreground",
  "voice": "",
  "voiceReply": "",
  "allowParams": "true"
 },
 {
  "trigger": "winamp volume",
  "command": "c:\\tools\\winamp_volume.bat",
  "offCommand": "",
  "ground": "foreground",
  "voice": "",
  "voiceReply": "",
  "allowParams": "true"
 },
 {
  "trigger": "winamp forward reverse",
  "command": "c:\\tools\\winamp_ff_rw.bat",
  "offCommand": "",
  "ground": "foreground",
  "voice": "",
  "voiceReply": "",
  "allowParams": "true"
 },
 {
  "trigger": "winamp next/previous preset",
  "command": "c:\\tools\\winamp_next_previous_preset.bat",
  "offCommand": "",
  "ground": "foreground",
  "voice": "",
  "voiceReply": "",
  "allowParams": "true"
 }

These are the .bat files in my c:\tools folder:

winamp_ff_rw.bat
