MHAmp is a simple plugin that will display your currently playing Winamp track information in any WinMX channels you are in. MHAmp is also reported to work well with other chat clients, such as mIRC (for those who use IRC a lot).

Features:

- Uptime and System information display.
- Away status display.
- Ability to fully customise the text displayed in the channel (allows you to add your own colour codes, for example).
- Support for advanced track information, such as playlist and track time info.
- Support for multiple channels.

The latest version can always be obtained from: http://www.planetrjc.net/mhamp

Greets go out to KM, Bender, pip2kk, Vladd44 for all their work in the WinMX community.

New release: MHAmp Version 2.4 Beta.

This release fixes a well known bug which caused any text currently being typed in the channel to be cut off by MHAmp when its automatically displaying its track information. This is a beta release and therefore is designed for testing purposes only, not recommended for full-time use as bugs may still remain.

Both the stable 2.3b and the beta 2.4 are available for download now at: http://www.planetrjc.net/mhamp

Another update, MHAmp v2.4.1:

+ Fixed compatibility issues with QCD and QMD media players, which caused track info to display incorrectly when loading new playlists.

+ Added 'delay track update' option to help increase compatibility with players other than Winamp. MHAmp fully supports Winamp, Quintessential CD and Quintessential Media Player. Windows Media Player support is currently under consideration for a future release.

This version is branded as 2.4 Final, however it is technically still a beta and is thus is still labelled as such on the web site. Again all feedback and bug reports are welcome and encouraged.

MHAmp 2.6 has been released!

New features and fixes:
+ MHAmp now allows the user to select which channels they wish to use MHAmp with from an easily accessible list. This replaces the old method of adding channels, and makes the whole process almost entirely automatic.
+ Fixed minor bugs reported from 2.4 beta, including titles being displayed incorrectly.
+ Added new startup splash screen graphics.

The web site, as per usual is: http://www.planetrjc.net/mhamp
Both version 2.6 and 2.4 are available on the site, so you have a choice as to which you prefer to use.. the new or the old.

For those asking why there was no 2.5.. there actually was, but it wasnt released publicly. It included mainly small bug fixes which I saw no point releasing when I was already working on 2.6.

As per usual, please feel free to report any bugs here.

Phob.

Cheers Phobos keep up the good work.It's a great mx plugin.

Phobos · « **Reply #14 on:** July 31, 2005, 05:52:53 am »

Thanks guys, the support is much appreciated. I hope somebody out there finds MHAmp useful on a regular basis.. I can only hope because I actually have no idea how many people use it, I only have the download figures (which are suprisingly high).

Anonymous · « **Reply #15 on:** August 02, 2005, 02:44:10 pm »

You welcome

Keep up the good work.I use it on the regular basis whenever i use winmx.There must be a lot of people using it if your download figures are high.
I wish I could get into your chatroom again,I haven't been able to get into for over a month, maybe even longer.

Phobos · « **Reply #16 on:** August 03, 2005, 07:35:36 am »

Thats very odd indeed, I havent had any other problems reported from anyone else about the channel. Are you seeing it in the channel list at all? If you can see it there, then theres no reason I can see that would prevent you joining. What client are you using, and what name are you attempting to enter under?

Also could you tell me what channels you have seen MHAmp being used in? I'd like to get some idea of where its being used a lot.

p2p rules · « **Reply #17 on:** August 03, 2005, 11:27:26 pm »

Yes I get it in the channel results list METAL HEADS_F14F9FD41A2B on WinMX...It's not just your room either I can't seem to get into any rooms that uses the WinMX default TCP port 6699.My connection trys to connect to the rooms then it times out or something for some reason.

I've mainly just seen MHAmp in metal rooms DM MD MS ect..& of course I used to see in your room all the time.

Phobos · « **Reply #18 on:** August 04, 2005, 01:55:55 pm »

If you cant get into any room that uses the standard WinMX ports, then its either your router/firewall config blocking the port or its your ISP. First check whatever router or firewall setup you have an ensure no ports are getting blocked. If that doesnt solve it, then check with your ISP... some ISP's block known p2p ports to prevent file sharing.
