Usually when a file plays it will display the file type as well as some info about the song in the system message area. How do you do this?

Perhaps it's done by the playback plugin?

No, acozz:
This is done by the input plug-in. Just send the AudioInfo struct info to player. You can download the source code of QCDAPE.dll and have a look at it.

Ah, I see...this invisible text variable is the key. I wonder why it isn't shown in QCDModDefs.h.

Edit: Well apparently I need to update the PDK to use the text variable.
