I use something like this, and it works

$if2($mat(%itrt,20),{ My Rating: 1/5 })$if2($mat(%itrt,40),{ My Rating: 2/5 })$if2($mat(%itrt,60),{ My Rating: 3/5 })$if2($mat(%itrt,80),{ My Rating: 4/5 })$if2($mat(%itrt,100),{ My Rating: 5/5 })

well, not really. you're the technicall one after all. get hyperIM and try to see how it does that. hyperIM sux, i want it with my AMIP

Is there any way to put headphones icon on Yahoo! Messenger? Like when you're listening to LAUNCHcast.
I think HyperIM does that.

UPDATE: I upgraded my Yahoo! Messenger to version 8 and now everything seems to works fine!

Well, I tried to delete all of my Custom Messages in Registry as you had told someone in another thread and guess what? it worked! Now there is no random busy icon. But it still shows that funny string when i stop playing instead showing a blank status.

What kind of regional settings can cause problem??
Because I've enabled "Complex scripts and Right-to Left languages" in Windows XP so that i can add Farsi Keyboard. And also I've changed my country to "Iran" .
Can these really have an effect AMIP?

Actually, There is no pattern! because sometimes AMIP puts a busy icon for a specific file, and sometimes it doesn't, so i guess it's not related to file name or its tags ..

and about that funny string. it always happens when i exit foobar or foobar finishes a playlist.

HOWEVER, AMIP is one of the cooolest foobar components i've seen. keep up the good work serge

I'm using Foobar 0.9.3.1 and Yahoo! Messenger 7.0.2.120 and everything works fine except that when i exit foobar or it finishes playing a song, AMIP changes my status to somthing like t�[] with a busy icon!
Does anybody know what's wrong?

There is another problem, i donno why AMIP puts a busy icon next to my status for some songs (Almost 50% of them). i dun want my buddies to think i'm busy. any soloution?
