Embedding Winamp

[gavin]

Hi guys n gurls,

I've looked everywhere to find out if it is possible to embed a winamp
player onto a website for a live audio stream. Do you think I can find
it??? ARRRGH

If anyone can help or point me in the right direction I will be eternally
grateful.

Gavin.

No, Winamp is a stand alone player.

You should allow users to choose to play the audio first, that means not
attempting to embed a player.

I have see before where a small popup page is launched when the user clicks
on a link with the main winamp controls in.

It looks just like winamp.

How is that done?

You can give them the choice if they want to play it or not and still
embed the player.

Top posting corrected this once.

Assuming that Winamp is installed on the client system and configured to
handle the file & mime type. For other users another player may launch,
don't attempt to mess with that, it's a valuable feature.
