Title: "Show what i'm listening to" Windows Live Messenger integration
Post by: Trilyan on February 21, 2010, 12:38:50 pm
It would be nice if MC has integrated support for windows live messenger, as currently, it is only possible to show the currently playing track with a free software called HyperIM.
This one works perfectly, but i think it's lame to have another process running just for the sake of showing my tracks playing, it could be perfectly integrated into MC's options, as you can see, it is possible, but you can make it easier.

Any of the page plugins work with current MC releases...

There are other plugins that perform the same functionality.   Do a search for "Playing Now".
I'm not sure how it or others compare to HyperIM.
Is there any other problems with having HyperIM running than requiring multiple processes?
In todays Dual Core Ghz world multiple processes aren't a big thing so long as they remain light.

thanks Chriz, i contacted the creator of the What i'm listening to plugin, and he helped me make the plugin work smooth.

There was no problem with HyperIM, but i just want to keep it simple ;D so it's a problem solved here.

I have tried a little handful of different MJ plugins for the sake of showing playing tracks in WLM, but they all seem to be incompatible with the newer versions of the messenger program :/.


The creator of "What I'm listening to" - did he upload that fix he did of the plug-in?
