Create an iTunes song info bezel with free tools
Authored by: StarManta on Aug 12, '04 01:54:12PM
I've already created one of these - only mine runs in QuickSilver, gets the new track immediately, and puts the album art in the icon.

QuickSilver

After installing QuickSilver, click this link

to install it.

Please note that you then have to select LanOSD as the notifier in the Actions prefpane.

BTW, I use Quicksilver too, but I don't use LanOSD, I prefer the built-in notifications for this.

Quicksilver also shows the album artwork if it's available (not just artwork in the songs, but also artwork that Synergy or Sofa has fetched)

Hi ...

Thanks for the hint with Quicksilver ...didnt knew it and am i am more than pleasant surprised ... especially the whole design .. very nice. But I dont get it with the plugins?! i have installed a bunch of them, even this LanOSD plugin, but nothing happens ... LanOSD, QS and iTunes are running, but no bevel, no popup ... and how can i configure stuff ??? All the plugins seem to just be there and now i can search for bookmarks and so on with QS .. thats it?! I just want to be sure i dont miss some features?!

bye

It's built in to the iTunes plugin. Check for the option in the iTunes section of the Quicksilver preference.

hi there ...

yes i have seen this, but nothing happens. I assume that the LanOSD thing tuns only when you have selected it as notification and the builtin iTunes just when QS is selected as notification ... Anyway ... both isnt working. I dont see notifications or bezels at all ... The only thing that i have seen was, that when i set LanOSD to notify, this "new plugin installed" popups arent windows but bezels ... which is nice... but i want ITUNES!!!! :)

Help is very appreciated!

bye
Hive
