Hi, I'm a new user here.
So, I just downloaded the newest AMIP version, to see if the issue with the shoutcast radio songs has been solved. I installed it, and made some minor adjustments to the mIRC output string. Then I was testing a shoutcast radio solution (saw something about it on another post in this forum), and it didn't work. I thought it was because I needed to restart either mIRC or Winamp, so I restarted both. Now when I hit my bind key on mIRC, some variables work, and some don't. It gets like this: Saget is listening to: %pos. %name [00:56]|[%LEN] (23%) It WAS working before I restarted everything, so I don't know what went wrong. Any ideas? |

How can I help you without having the actual preset you are using?

Heh, sorry =P Here it goes: /me $dde(mPlug,format,"0is listening to9:_15%pos9._0%name_9[15%pm:%ps9]14|9[15%LEN9] 14(%prc%)") All those squares and numbers are the mirc colors, if you want I can take them off so you have a better visualization of the preset =) |

1. Variable names are case sensitive, there is no %LEN, but there is %len.
2. There can be no spaces in mIRC format. You have at least 3. All the above is mentioned in the documentation. Please read it all before asking lame questions. |

Please read it all before asking lame questions. I replaced the spaces with underscores and changed the %len variable, still it doesn't work. What I don't understand is that it was all working, mistakes or not, and after I restarted the programs it just stopped. I read the documentation, and from what I see there's nothing wrong. I even made a new preset in another key bind and it still does not work. |

How about the nested parenthesis and %prc%?
If you don't want to mess with all these mIRC format limitations, use the approach described here: http://amip.tools-for.net/wiki/tutorials/mirc_hotkey . |

I will take a look at this link. =) About the %prc%: If I put only %prc, then it just shows x. I put %prc% so it shows x%. It has been working all along x( And all the parenthesis (beside the main ones) and [] are just a matter of looks. the output gets like this when it's working: [19:49.09] * Saget is listening to: 458. Something Corporate - Down [00:23]|[00:03:36] (11%) |

Ok, it works fine except of %len, sorry but %LEN was correct. However read the notes, %LEN will work only for mp3 files if EncSpot is enabled.
If you need song length for other file types, use: %min:%sec. |

If you need song length for other file types, use: %min:%sec. EncSpot is enabled, so far %LEN is working ok, if anything goes wrong from now I'll just switch back to %min:%sec (that's what I was using before). So, I guess I solved the problem. I just opened the AMIP Configurator and restarted all settings, and all works fine now, including the shoutcast radio output. Now I feel dumb for not trying this before, but I'm glad it worked. =) |
