I did find the same issues you did - more or less; just didn't want to repeat them since they were already reported by you. Also I mentioned only the ones that would bother me enough to try fixing them.

As for the skinning, it's not WindowBlinds. It's UberSkin, a native skinning system built by a young and bright russian guy nicknamed Tihiy. Can be found at the MSFN.org forums board.

• I have (relatively) enough time and will to test on Win95 and Win98SE as well as XP-SP3. I also can use AHK as I've been working on my own little projects for a while. So I wasn't asking for your time but for the source code so I could change and test it live on my private machines. Any changes would be reported directly to you and no code would be leaked to third parties under any circumstances. I don't need credits or money, just a working, reliable application.
• I do have MSLU v1.1.3790.0 installed so that's not the problem.
• An IF A_OSType/A_OSVersion could handle progressbar vs slider.
• Am definitely not a fan of resource hacking as long as it only takes 10 seconds to create a multipage icon that'd fulfill the requirements for both 9x and NT-based OS versions.
• It doesn't matter how high the Options panel is, thing is it starts off at a low position on screen.
• Natively AHK can handle DllCalls, machine code and many other things and experimenting is the fun part of using AHK, in my opinion.

I was trying to avoid having to build my own player from scratch - what a waste of time reinventing the wheel! - and also to give people like me - Win9x users - a chance to benefit from your hard work. But I'm afraid that's impossible, from what you said. Too bad.

Hello, skwire!
I only registered here because of this player. As a couple other users around, I'm using Win9x too - Win98SE, to be more precise. As such, I'd appreciate if you would allow me/us to help in fixing the few (minor, I'd say) issues that we found in testing this script.

Basically what needs attention are:
- missing tags
- seek and volume progressbars not functional (sliders might've been better for 9x)
- currently playing icon appears to be 32bit, thus displaying a black background in 9x

Other issues I noticed would be:
- Options panel out of screen at the bottom (on 1024x768 resolution)
- lack of drag'n'drop sorting in playlist (major issue for me personally)

It would be interesting to try and make the list view RichEdit-aware; since I've tested and cRichEdit can display Unicode characters correctly on my system and you already manipulate strings in Unicode mode, maybe we could get it to display the Unicode ID3 tags properly in 9x.

If you're willing to give us 9x people a chance, please contact me by PM here, on AHK board or on Miranda IM board (if you're registered there).

Oh and here's Trout Player on my 98SE system:
