Title: WinAMP plugin to communicate with head unit Post by: DdJ on 25 Oct 2004, 15:08 Is there somone who succeeded to create a WinAMP plugin that communicates with the Pioneer Head Unit?
So the head unit controls WinAMP (play, next track, previous track stop, end so on). And WinAMP sends the current playing MP3-track information to the head unit (The ID3-tag information)? Ofcourse this communication will take place with Vitat's IP-bus interface hardware elsewhere on this forum.

http//instruct1.cit.cornell.edu/courses/ee476/FinalProjects/s2004/km279/Copy%20of%20ece476/ There is a piece of C-code that makes communication via rs232 possible with WinAMP. Title: WinAMP plugin to communicate with head unit Post by: jaripetteri on 09 Nov 2004, 11:07 I'm also interested about winamp-plugin to get commands from Pioneer HU. With Nullsoft Winamp SDK, some low-level RS232 driver and Vitat's AVR code that should be relatively easy task to do someone who have skills to write PC low level software. Unfortenately I don't... =(
Anyway I'm studing this and if Vitat have ip-bus timing specification available I might try to do some code for this. My idea is to do ip-bus driving on PC so no mcu is needed between PC (winamp) and HU. If thats not possible then some mcu (PIC or AVR) is needed to convert data so that PC have time to do also something else than watch the serial port waiting for a data... |
