Now Playing "artist - title" problem

How do I change the "artist - title" or "title - artist" when using the now
playing feature in the wlm 8.5

I tried to use several patches and plugins but no one seems to work fine.

Anyone have a solution?

Re: Now Playing "artist - title" problem

Greetings Daniel,

As a quick solution that won't require you to change much nor patch Messenger, you can use
Messenger Plus! Live:
http://www.msgplus.net, combined with dt's Now Playing Script:
http://www.msgpluslive.net/scripts/v...c-Now-Playing/

After it's installed, just pop open a conversation window, click the Scripts icon (looks like
3 boxes) in the toolbar, choose Now Playing and then Configure. You can then configure it
for most major media players, then choose the PSM tab and enable the PSM feature. You can
then change it to any format you like.
