Skin not showing song info

Post by Catalyst123 »

Sooo i'm sure there has been someone else with this problem, but i havent been able to find anything.
I am trying to use the Cold skin (https://visualskins.com/skin/cold). However i cant get it to show song info. i have tried to figure out how to install WebNowPlaying, but i cant seem to figure it out. Can anyone help me?
PS. i have posted the same on the reddit, so if i get anything there i will be sure to comment it here for others to see :)

Install WebNowPlayingRedux_2.0.7.rmskin and the plugin will be installed automatically:
https://github.com/keifufu/WebNowPlaying-Redux-Rainmeter/releases
If you want to listen to music from sites like YouTube, you must also install the browser extension:
chrome: https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/webnowplaying-redux/jfakgfcdgpghbbefmdfjkbdlibjgnbli
firefox: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/webnowplaying-redux/


Then right click on the skin and choose Edit skin.
Replace where you see:

Plugin=NowPlaying.dll
with
Plugin=WebNowPlaying

Then refresh the skin.
