    I can select the viz only the presents in the second select bar are not selectable ( greyed out)

    *.milk are in the right folder :

    ....\MusicPlayer\plugins\visualisations\Winamp\Mil kdrop\*.milk
    ....\MusicPlayer\plugins\visualisations\Winamp\vis _milk.dll

    ah ok, now i know what you're talking about.

    The label "Preset" is a bit misleading. This is a term used within WMP.
    Winamp calls that Modules.
    A Winamp Visualisation can have more than 1 module. if this is the case, the box will not be greyed out.
    However Milkdrop has only one module and therefor it is greyed out.

    Selecting Milkdrop Presets, needs to be done via the Keyboard.
    Unfortunately, as indicated in my first post, the keyboard entries are somehow not reaching the viz window, but get "stolen" by the main MP process.
    So currently there's no way to select individule milk presets.
    maybe there'S a way to set a random mode in milkdrop_config.ini, but i'm not sure

    Ok, latest changes allow you now to run Geiss 2, Beatharness or older versions of Mildrop.
    All the plugins that said, they need music playing, will work now.

    Next step is now to allow using the config dialogue.

    Ok, finally the Song Title is displayed as well correctly.
    Did some research and it is fairly complicated capturing keystrokes and also display the album art.
    So i#ll leave it this way.

    Now people, come on and test.
    Where are all those guys that were nagging for milkdrop support?
    Now it is there and no one comments. :)

    this s great hwahrmann well done, im sort of wondering now if this can some how be encorporated into my radio?, the reason i ask is it is running seperately to my music so it seems to use a different bit of code for the visualisation as it picks up the default wmp vis.
    Also sorry to sound dumb but what exactly do you mean by the config button?

    Great work on getting this running! One slight issue - in SVN 13860 (latest one), if you go to select the Milkdrop visualization, the configuration.exe exits, with no error message, and nothing in the logs. SVN 13835 works, however, and works pretty well. This is running 1.05b6 of Milkdrop.
