Winamp is not responding (crashes) when I am trying to play an Audio CD

Hello, to the Llama community!

I am using Winamp 5.8 with some plugins, and I have a problem.

I popped an Audio CD, in my PC (Windows 10) and when I try to play the disc, winamp doesn't respond.

But the funny thing is that I can't close the window even I kill it from task manager. I have to log out and login again, to fix it.

I tried disabling every CD plug in and it happened again.

How can I fix it? Should I go to 5.666?

I hope the next version of Winamp will fix it.

My guess is there's a plug-in conflict. You might want to try it again with a clean install (no 3rd party plugins) and if that doesn't work, then try 5.666 (5.8 is beta anyway)

Do you have the issue if you use a different program to play the audio cd?

Also, don't expect any next version of winamp given it's vaporware. Might want to give wacup a try

No it doesn't. I rolled back to 5.666 and... It is worst, but it plays CDs. I Will tell more about it, tommorow.
