Playlist

Hmm, for some reason I can't get my playlist to update on this site. I've looked at the code and it should work fine, it's not like I've changed the code either, it's just broken for whatever reason. Grrr. I hate not knowing why things stop working.
EDIT: I figured it out, for some reason I hadn't read one of the first lines of code properly. I changed the code about a month ago so it'll only update the database if the updated track listing comes from certain specific IP addresses (in addition to the other measures). I've added my parents' current IP address and it seems fine now. At least I was right that it wasn't the code that was broken, it was simply that my machine was connected to the internet from another location - and the IP checking bit of code was clearly doing its job properly. Ah well, at least I know it works.
It's not a great photo, but I've taken a quick one of my monitor near a can of Dr Pepper that I happened to be drinking at the time. It should give you an idea of scale, in case you're hopeless with measurements in inches, and can't picture my 30" monitor in your head. The stand goes higher, but I lowered it as far as possible in order to get the can close to it in the photo.
And finally, bringing it back to the whole playlist topic, this plugin is what I use with Winamp to get Windows Live Messenger's "What I'm Listening To" feature to work.
