jump to media library instead of info page on artist click

samfau2 · 1st April 2009, 14:19

In the little now playing section at the top of winamp (see pic), i would like to be able to click the artist, album, track etc and for winamp to then jump to the appropriate media library view.

I.e. If i click artist, winamp then shows all albums by that artist instead of the aol music page thingy.

Is there an option or plug in to enable this?

that would be amazing. too bad it's hardcoded into the skin. if you change the default search in the browser to Wikipedia, at least clicking those will take you to something slightly more useful than AOL's search.. ML would be fantastic but would all depend on what Martin wants to do with it or if he's even able to due to some weird AOL promotion shit they force into Winamp.

One cool thing is that this functionality is available from the Playlist with ShaneH's MLFind plugin: http://www.winamp.com/plugins/details/139376

but yes, would be cool/intuitive to see it in the file info component too.

even if it is an AhOLe promotion gig, perhaps it could be coded in as a hidden option that required editing studio.xnf.

Has there been any progress on this? I paid for Winamp Pro, and I registered on this forum just to say I've been wanting this too.
