I updated Topic on Forum so that we clear this,

Ok it seams that Google talk Do not Communicate with MM as most other Applications do.
And it looks that Result returned from MM is not converted in right format, so if it is not big problem I want to confirm one thing as I was able to replicate the problem.

If you play for example "Queen - Show Must Go On" Google Talk shows "Queen - Queen"
But in Case of "Abba - Teans - Supper Trouper" Google Talk shows "Abba - Teans"

So It looks that when Artist have " - " in name Gougle talk catch only Artist from MM

Jiri could you catch what Gougle Talk sends to MM thru WM_ Msg when it askes for Currently playing Info. It looks that that MM and Winamp report different Results.

Futher Notice, When Same songs are played in Winamp Google talk do not show correct info either. It Looks that the problem is in Google Talk calls for Currently playing track no matter what player is used althru in case of MM result returned is not interprated correctly.

Should I contact Google Talk Support team regarding fix on this?

Peke, that's actually what I wanted from you, i.e. to check out WinampPlugins.pas unit to see what messages MM gets from Google Talk and then try to resolve the issue.

According to Peke, there's not much to do here since Google Talk accepts ASCII and MM sends Unicode/UTF-8.

Leaving it open since Jiri feels that there may be a way to solve it.

Google talk it seams send only two WM_USER messages to MediaMonkey:
104 Player status which is returned correctly
120 Save M3U playlist which is also returned corectly
