Windows Media Player Resume-Plugin (Version 1.2.1 09/25/08)

[Wolfman-XP]

Hello,
for everyone who is interested in: i have developed a resume-plugin for the windows media player. Just install the .cab and everytime you press pause on the MediaPlayer it will save the playlist and the position. Afte you exit the player or the device resets it will resume at the same position.
Perhaps someone find it useful in combination with audio-books.
Have fun,
greets,
Thomas

P.S: The plugin is for the MOBILE Windows Media Player, that means it is for devices with the Windows Mobile OS! (For those who come direct from google to this PDA-Forum..:-)

UPDATE 1.1:
-now it is not necessary (written correct..? :-) to press "pause". Every 20 sec a resume list is written.

UPDATE 1.2:
-New Config-Tool for setting the Save-Interval and an option for asking to resume on startup.
-The save-interval is the time for automatic save in Milliseconds
-please de-install the previous version before installing the new!

UPDATE 1.2.1:
-the PopUp for resuming is bound to the mediaplayer so you can use the library startoption.
You have to close the library to see the PopUp.
Have Fun!

Hi,

your cab installs the "ResumePlugin2.dll" on "\Program Files\ResumePlugin", without reg entries or Links.

how will this work?

It is a self-register com-component. On install the installer calls the self-register function of the .dll, it registers itsself as WMP Plugin and makes the reg-entries in \hklm\software\microsoft\mediaplayer\uiplugins. After that, the plugin works.

Works great on all my WM5+ test devices (PPC and SP alike), except for the HP iPAQ 210.

thank you. this is working great for me as well. it is standard on every other media player except wm...
side note: s2p has this standard and seems to use less resources then wm.

thanks again for this very handy hack. I will pass this along as well.

Another thing that Windows have forgotten !
Thanks for making WMP better !

PS : It was one of the reasons that make me install S2P... I was obliged to select again and again the playlist...
