Re: Help
Hello morbillo welcome to NJB.
Most of your questions can be answered here regarding file sturcture and the images (http://www.netjukebox.nl/filestructure.php). As far as the genre question that you have in the interface you can select the artist and then within that artist it will display the albums for that artist in which you can select the albums you want to change the genre. You then check the albums you want to change and then click the edit button at the bottom of the album list then it will give you an option list and you choose what genre you want to make it, then click on save.
In the config tab you can search for an image via sloth radio and I believe there is a way to change it to other sites via the config.inc.php file located in the include folder. Otherwise the images are gathered from the artist/album folders. They must be named "image.jpg" however I have had no problems with my images named folder.jpg
again this information is also located in the file sturcture information.
As far as the dos prompt showing up that just means that you don't have the codec pack which can be downloaded from the download page where you downloaded netjukebox... just make sure that the config.inc.php reflects where you installed the codecs to. To install the codecs just create a folder and extract the codec pack into that folder.
Hope this helps and if you have any other questions don't be afraid to ask. I will try to answer as best as I can or the author of NJB usually answers all questions as well. I have been using the script for quite some time and I am no expert by any means, but I can try to help where I can.
I hope that I got everything correct Willem
As far as the httpq plugin for winamp I don't use that part of NJB so maybe Willem can help you out with that.
