Ah! I didn't read that part carefully at first (it's kinda small^^). Thank you very much!

So, is it not possible to pre-filter the AMIP output or is it just so easy and obvious that no one wants to point it out? I mean a simple answer like one of the following would be appreciated:

- "it is not possible, and it's never gonna happen",
- "not possible atm, but planned",
- "yes it works, just RTFM more closely", or
- "possible, with some exotic workaround: hint" ...

Any reaction is better than no reaction at all.

I use it in Counterstrike and other HL-based games. It should work in any game that has a console or at least lets you execute custom config files.

I've set the file location in AMIP Configurator to:

(This writes the songinfo to a standard textfile with a .rc-ending to the game directory. I guess you could use .cfg or whatever you prefer instead of .rc).

The songinfo alone wouldn't do anything ingame though, therefore the text it writes to the textfiles has to include the command that your game uses to display info. An example for CS:

The above would write something like this to the nowplaying.rc:


Now if you bind a key to "exec nowplaying.rc" it executes the content of the file. In this case it would send your songinfo as a message in teamchat after pressing whatever key you used to bind. Of course you can use more complex stuff with all the other variables or counterstrike specific color codes etc

This is how it looks ingame

Hi, i am using the file integration to display my "now playing" info in some games (via the games 'exec file' function). Works like charm, BUT i'd like to filter certain words from the output.

For example some webradios put "WWW.SOME-NAME.STUFF" into the song information. Since that can be a very long text (if in title AND album, for example), i'd like to automatically remove that (or if possible: replace with custom text).

I've been playing around with the reg. expressions of the "Ignore song titles matching pattern" feature, but it looks like it COMPLETELY ignores the songinfo if it matches to the regex. (either that, or i somehow missed something)

Thanks for any help or hint.
