Skillster: I don't think folder scanning should take long. I mean, it only does it once for each song and Windows should cache the folder contents. It makes the files.ini more portable, too...Long filenames? Sure does. At least, it did for me.

Sir Canealot: Don't worry, you'll get credit for helping with it ^_^

Things like looping and starting in the middle of a song are - like I said earlier - very possible for MP3's. (Can't do it for the "internal" midi playback, but anything going through a Winamp plugin I have complete control over. Mwahahaha!). Once I've got the main plugin working (which might be now) and a full ID list (which is not now, but might be soon) I can work on putting those in.

By the way, the midi file format really sucks. It's technically very concise and doesn't include any information it doesn't have to. In other words, it's pure hell to decode unless you know it inside out. Argh. And other such things.
 
Sorry i didnt take time to read all of the thread, but ill read it later, i just want hte 100th post.
 
Yup. I'll post in the new topic from now on, but this is a reply to Dag's comments, so it's here...Everything Dag's said is perfectly correct. If you really want looping/resuming, either:

a) Use MP3's and let me alter the WinMM layer to loop the Winamp plugin. Easily done.
b) Use a MIDI Winamp plugin, in the same way as you'd use MP3's!
 
Whoops...never thought about b). Stupid...it is of course the obvious solution...doesn't require 100+ hours of programming either...
