foobar2000 is still my favorite Computer-As-Source music player. I wrote a plug-in for foobar2000 0.8 when I first used it. Now on my notebook I installed the foobar2000 v0.9... and the plug-in need to be re-written as the underlying architecture is changed.
The C++ source code is available here. You will need to download the foobar2000 SDK in order to build it. The binary DLL is also available (compiled with Visual C++ 2005 Express). Save the DLL under the components directory of foobar2000 and restart the program. There will be a new item added under the Playback menu. Select the format of info that you want to show on MSN. Also remember to turn on the "Show what I'm listening to" feature on your MSN Messenger.

- Nicely done! I was just wondering why my foobar wasn't updating my MSN when I realized that it's not a foobar feature but a plug-in done by the wicked Clarence! XD Good job! Well done! Keep up the good work! 8P
- 等我 update 吓你啦! 你個 plug-in o係 foobar2000 0.9.4.5 下仲 work. 8D
- ar, thx man! time for me to upgrade... :P
- compiled binary o係 foobar2000 0.9.5 下仲行得走得, 不過: "However you should take care to only use components compiled after July 30th, 2007 (including foobar2000 itself and bundled components). Older versions of the foobar2000 SDK contained a bug that would cause “bad allocation” errors on Windows Vista."
- -.-... i don't use vista 喎 :P
- Thanks a lot. I've tried many, yours works best
- thanks!
