Winamp Timing Problem

christantoan · 4th October 2011, 12:07

Winamp has timing problem that can make synchronized lyric faster or slower than the song (Have tested the lyric in WMP and they're good).
Have tried clean reinstall with 3rd party plugin just Minilyrics for showing lyrics

Hi christantoan,

What are your reasons for blaming Winamp? Have you tried to contact
the developer of the Minilyrics plugin? What version are you using? The
one on the main Winamp site is from 2004!

Have you tried adjusting scroll speed? Look at link below.

If the DX version you listed is correct, it should also be updated. Run the
"dxdiag.exe" app in the "Windows - System32" folder to check. Link below
is to Microsoft's DirectX updater.

Also check your notebook maker's website for any updated drivers for your
notebook's hardware. Do not trust Windows update for hardware drivers.

Good luck.

Well because it plays correctly in WMP.
I'm using Minilyrics from http://www.crintsoft.com/ latest version
No. I haven't tried it since it Synchronized Lyric (.lrc) which play correctly in WMP.
My DX and drivers version is up to date

you cannot really compare WMP with Winamp especially when you're looking at a feature implemented by a 3rd party plug-in. however i'm not disagreeing with what you're trying to say as Winamp plug-ins don't have the means to be perfectly sync'd (alas a throwback of Winamp's heritage). really the best thing is to make sure you've got a current version of minilyrics and if that's still an issue try to contact the author to see if they can improve things.

OK. Thanks

Have tried contacting Minilyrics developer but hasn't got reply or update.
So I'm just gonna wait

(BTW just happen with MP3 files though. FLAC doesn't has this problem though the time display is still incorrect)
