The release notes say that it now relies on Media Foundation for H.264 decoding; since that's a feature of Windows 10, it seems to be saying that Winamp 5.8 on Windows 10 should be able to play MP4/H.264 videos. In practice I can't get it to work. Audio plays fine, and a video window pops up, but there's nothing in the video window. Anyone know anything about this?
