[QUOTE="juvinious, post: 8673, member: 10678"] Well after toying around for a while now I finally got my plugin to show up and it works great. I've made some progress on my shoutcast PLS downloader and I should, hopefully, have something showable within this week or next. Here is basically an outline of what I plan to incorporate in the setup: - Select All/Various Genres - Allow up to 5-10 or so Custom Genre Search - Amount of PLS files to Download per genre (I'm not sure if Shoutcast still has daily limits) - Order by Bitrate, # listeners, Discription and append numbers to file according to order - Save file name with station name (optionally append bitrate) - Saves files to specified directory (or media portal directory default) - Choose whether to include all files in one directory or catagorize in directories by genre After that is complete I will add an option to automatically update by given day/hour variable. This is actually my first project using .net and using C# and I'm learning as I go. I couldn't figure out how to implement the IsetupForm in C++, so I am doing it in C#. Which is lending itself conviniently for the tasks I'm doing. Thanks again earlier for your help with my initial probems.
