Now Playing - DuMbGuM - 2008-09-09

Hi !

First of all i'd like to say many thanks for this great media centre! Running it on my PC and Macbook and totally enjoying it!

I've been trying to find a now playing plugin for the Windows XBMC and Live Messenger and can't (ive tried using the site search function to no avail).

I downloaded XBMC MSN which asks for an XBOX ip and i haven't been able to get it working on the PC so far, any help will be appreciated, thanks! :o

Nevermind, solved the problem myself.

1. Install Arkane's script http://www.msgpluslive.net/scripts/view/341-XBMC-Script/

2. When the setup screen appears, enter your computer i.p AND leave the port field blank. Enter no erver password.

3. Enter XBMC, hit settings, then network. Enable the web server, i just entered 0 as the port and left the password field blank.

4. Enter your Music section of XBMC, play a song, press Alt+Tab and voila, your music should now be appearing as your personal message on Windows Live Messenger.

NOTE: I used the new XBMC Atlantis Beta for this, i'm also not sure if my step 3 has any relevance exept the web server proably needs to be activated.
