Well, the way we implemented it on our site (<a class="moz-txt-link-abbreviated" href="http://www.radiogfm.nl">www.radiogfm.nl</a>, under
'External player') is by some PHP code that manipulates the
'Content-type' that is sent to the browser and generates a specific
playlist for each player.<br>
<br>
The key element here is the content type; for example, WinAmp
registers itself to the 'audio/x-scpls' content, so if the user
click on a link with that content-type, WinAmp will get started;
same for 'video/x-ms-asf' for Media Player.<br>
<br>
I will send you the script, however it's been years since I tested
it (I'm using the embedded player mostly); and I'm not sure we can
do something similar for iTunes. Of course, as others pointed out on
the list it's probably best to let the user decide which player to
use but I suppose there are cases where choosing the player is
preferable.<br>
