[installation]
_____________________
1] unzip ALL files to your mIRC
directory (they may be in a sub-directory if you so choose)
2] type the following in any mIRC window and hit enter. (use the second
example if you chose to unzip to a subdirectory, YOURFOLDER is the name
of that subdirectory)
/load -rs mp3n.ini OR /load -rs YOURFOLDER\mp3n.ini
3] choose "Yes" to run initialization commands
4] follow the on-screen instructions for setup
[known issues]
_____________________
-using the fast forward or rewind option can screw up the timer. also
kind of relates to the following...
-the timer seems to sometimes not count exactly right...not exactly sure
why, but it seems to be related somehow to doing stuff in windows. ie
if you dont do anything its more accurate
-you can fast forward or rewind past the end of a song and even into negative
time on the time elapsed counter for songs

respectively

[other notes & useful info]
_____________________
please feel free to set your song playing message to the custom window
instead
of a channel that gets pissed off with spam :D
some people seem to think that not
including the file path in the playlist window would be
better, however, what if you have your mp3s organized in folders, so the
artist is not necessarily in the file name?
if continuous play is checked, mp3n
will play the next song in your list
when the current song finishes, and will continue to do so until you stop
it
if continuous play and random are
checked, mp3n will just keep playing random
files until stopped
if random is checked, mp3n will
play a random file from the current playlist,
even if you double click on a file in your playlist
if you get an error like
* /splay: no such file
that means the file has moved or for some very strange reason cant be
found by mIRC
sorry, but theres nothing I can do about that
if you get an error like this
* /splay: unable to play
there is something wrong with the mp3 file you're trying to play.....it
can
be found, however it may be damaged or corrupt for some reason (nothing
i
can do about this either)
