2.0.0.0

• #11, #13: Allow more flexibility with custom fallback images
  • When playing a file with no album art, this plugin will delete the copied album art image by default
    • To supply a custom fallback image instead of deleting it, save the image as emptyAlbumArt.png in the Winamp installation directory
    • This is a breaking change from 1.1.0.0 because the old behavior was to save a 1×1px black PNG instead of deleting it
    • To restore the previous behavior, save this PNG as emptyAlbumArt.png in the Winamp installation directory
  • Similarly, when stopping, pausing, or exiting Winamp, this plugin will delete the copied album art image by default
    • To supply a custom fallback image instead of deleting it, save the image as stoppedAlbumArt.png in the Winamp installation directory
  • Thanks to @Luna-Nocturna for the suggestion.
• #5: Additional fix to avoid a crash when playing a stream URL in Winamp
  • Thanks to @Luna-Nocturna for help reproducing and testing this issue.
• Show song filename in error message when an uncaught exception is thrown for easier diagnosis

1.1.0.0

• #9: Instead of only being able to extract album art embedded in audio files, this plugin now faithfully implements Winamp's album art discovery algorithm, falling back from embedded metadata to specifically named image files in the same folder:
  1. embedded metadata (highest priority)
  2. %album%.bmp (where %album% is the song's album name from its metadata tags)
  3. %album%.gif
  4. %album%.jpeg
  5. %album%.jpg
  6. %album%.png
  7. *.nfo (treat .nfo file basename as image basename, e.g foo.nfo → foo.* → foo.jpg)
  8. cover.bmp
  9. cover.gif
  10. cover.jpeg
  11. cover.jpg
  12. cover.png
  13. folder.bmp
  14. folder.gif
  15. folder.jpeg
  16. folder.jpg
  17. folder.png
  18. front.bmp
  19. front.gif
  20. front.jpeg
  21. front.jpg
  22. front.png
  23. albumart.bmp
  24. albumart.gif
  25. albumart.jpeg
  26. albumart.jpg
  27. albumart.png
  • Thanks to @DougRedfield87 for reporting and helping investigate this.

1.0.5.0

• Fixed template preset insertion does not moving insertion point to the end of the inserted text, making chaining annoying (#4).

  • Thanks to @Dainah-0xdeadc0de for the report.
