multiremote
Note: multiremote has been replaced by Multiremote.NET!
I suggest grabbing that instead, since it's superior to multiremote in pretty much every way. However, this page will be here for a for a few weeks or so.
Current version: 3.0 beta 4.01 [link dead] (most of you want this one) (4318 downloads since 2005-02-15) [link dead] (3931 downloads since 2006-06-28)
Features |
Multiple application support |
Support for Apple iTunes, Winamp, Foobar 2000* and QCD Player**.
* Seeking appears to be broken in Foobar 2000. ** Retrieving the current title is broken for QCD Player. |
Hotkeys |
Use hotkeys to control the applications and copy info about the current track to the clipboard, which enables to you paste (ctrl+v) it practically in any textbox, even in some games. |
Custom formats |
You can specify your own formats, i.e. how multiremote handles the data it gets from winamp. See the readme for more info and a tutorial. |
Tray balloon tips |
You can use multiremote to display the currently playing song in a balloon tip (screenshot), very useful if you've got your played minimized to tray like I do. Obviously, you can turn these off. |
And more... |
Choosing your own hotkeys, allowing them to automatically start the player if necessary, automatically pressing ctrl+v/enter/ctrl+enter on copy to clipboard, and more. |
