Re: Winamp feature request?

I'm not sure how (or even if it's possible) to get Winamp to send events to
the plug-in.

I should be able to query Winamp's currently playing track from the
plug-in, but that would mean constantly polling Winamp to determine when
the track had changed, which I don't really like doing (very resource
intensive).

Anyone else know if it's possible for WInamp to tell a general purpose
plug-in when the currently playing track changes?

Regards,

John
