Kung-Tunes rocks!
Authored by: iobuffa on May 07, '03 11:23:44AM
From the moment I installed Kung-Tunes, I knew it was a winner. I immediately donated to the author and you should too! My favorite feature is the concept of the # tags where if information is not available on a track (say the Composer field), then Kung-Tunes will not display what you wrap inside the tags!

#cComposer: ^c #c

will show:

Composer: Mozart

if that information is available from the song, if not, it won't show anything. Very useful.

(I forgot what the composer tag is, don't use c because it's for count :))

Another nifty "feature" is by using the comment field of itunes tracks to store album cover information. This allows you to show album covers on your site whenever a song is played. Example:

  • Place: http://my.site.com/images/mozart_cover.jpg in the comments field of a mozart track.
  • Use the following html in Kung-Tunes: #k<img src="^k">#k

    Viola, you now have dynamic cover art displayed on your page. Downside to this is that you have to manually upload all the cover art to your webserver, but that shouldn't take too long, right? :) For more neat tricks, check out the author's online tutorial.

    Anywho, I can go on and on about how I love kung-tunes. Try it for yourself like i did
