Hmm. Someone reported this in the official winamp 5.2 thread:

[IN THE SHOUTCAST BROWSER] Furthermore, if you use your scroll-wheel the player freezes.

In another forum he mentioned that you would have to move the wheel fast. Can someone reproduce that?

[Edit --> DJ Egg]
Nope :/

[/edit]

I am not quite sure if this is a bug in the plug-in or a general bug in the playlist, but I'll post it here anyway.

If I doubleclick on a file in the playlist the playlength of the file is displayed to the left of the file (which is fine), but when I afterwards click on another file it no longer displays the playlength. It seems that it looses the playlength whenever I change focus in the playlist (however only when using the mouse, not when using keyboard).
Also it only loose the playlength if the file was decoded using the directshow filter plug-in, and winamp was unable to determine the bitrate of the file.
Actually it might also happen if other plug-ins are unable to determine the bitrate, but I haven't encountered such cases. Actually I think it's because of my directshow decoder filter that winamp is unable to get the bitrate (I use FFDshow).

The bug also happened in the previous beta, I think it started occuring after you posted something about fixing some kind of a title bug, but I'm not sure.

"Sorry, online Services could not load. Please post an angry message in the Forums".

THIS IS AN ANGRY MESSAGE!!!

>> I want the old browser back! It simply worked, and the new one does not! it shows a mostly black window and that's all!

Where can I enter a search e.g. for jazz radio channels, as i could do it before 5.2? all the input fields are gone.

I will definitively go back to version 5.13. And now don't tell me your update stuff yes bla bla it's always the same, really. Not only that I can't play back a lot of my ACM wave files (what I can somewhat "repair" by using the old in_wave plugin), NO also the online media is gone. very cool. thanks. <<

Was this message angry enough? At least I am.

[kzuse]

//ADDITION: I forget one other thing: now after this "funny" dialog box it asked me to start the debug mode?? I said yes. The following was presented to me, as you see in the file "debug.gif". //

[kzuse]

And another (real) bug report:

in_wave (the new one of course) doesn't play normal (uncompressed PCM) wave files if they contain Meta information ("LIST information") at the beginning.

If this information is at the end of the file (at it should be...) it's no problem, then it even shows that information in Winamps scolling bar. (fine!)

Clean install.

Here's a link to a file that won't play. It contains some LIST chunk at its beginning, with information that it was created by Goldwave.

http://home.arcor.de/ggabi/pub/strek.wav

Regards, kzuse

PS: The old in_wave (which I continue using because of the RIFF-MP3 bug, and which was fully OK since i almost never played 32bit WAV's) did correctly play this file !!!!

[CraigF]

Its called a trade off. libsndfile supports many many many more variations of wave files. however, it has less tollerence for invalid or dodgy wave files.

The Plays for Sure plugin does not recognize the
Samsung YP-T8Z. This device is plays for sure certified and works with WMP 10 as a portable device properly. I cannot give instructions on how to reproduce this other than to tell you to get one and try it out. I am unaware if this is a problem with all Samsung players.

I would guess that many people are going to have a problem with this feature as the protocol is identical regardless of the player.

If any further information is required, please let me know.

[Asaf Karagila]

It seems that the Missing Files feature can't handle those runic characters that german/scandinavian bands have in their names/song names.

My entire Mötorhead and half the Nargaroth directory is marked as missing, although it still plays the file.
Just shows it as missing.

As an additional piece of information...I thought it may be worthwhile to note that this particular device also acts as a USB mass-storage device. There are no drivers required to connect it to any Windows-based machine and it can be explored using Windows Explorer. I don't know exactly how things are recognized, but perhaps it is registered in the system differently than other devices.

Sorry for the copied post, but I was not allowed permission to edit my previous post.

Using 5.2 (Feb 23 2006)

Concerning the text box below Preferences : Portables : Use this query to fine-tune what songs should be included in the Autofill

Entering the following line
rating == 0
and then initiating autofill causes winamp to use max cpu and freeze. Lines such as "rating == 1" ... "rating == 5" immediately bring up the confirmation dialog box.

[Edit --> DJ Egg]
Not sure if I understood you exactly, but rating=0 is not valid.
Try "(rating isempty)" instead.

[Edit --> starfoxmac]
Thanks for the tip - I was going to ask that next. But I think the bug is that if I enter incorrect syntax, I have to end winamp with the task manager and try again.

Winamp 5.2 - clean install (with NO 3rd-party plugins)
Windows xp pro sp2
amd 3800+ dual core, asus a8n-sli, 2 gigs ram
nividia gforce 6600 81.98
audigy 2 zs
DirectX 9.c

my problem is with the following plugin:
Nullsoft Vorbis Decoder v1.44 [in_vorbis.dll]

when i am listening to a stream that uses oggvorbis the title of the metadata song is missing the artist, i only see album - tracknumber - song title

all previous versions of winamp showed the artist of the song as well.

i have comfirmed on another machine with 5.13 that it shows the artist - album - track - title in the playlist area.

a friend of mine comfirmed that his new install of 5.2 doesnt show the artist metadata either but previous version does.

the stream is being broadcasted with latest oddsock 3.16, icecast and winamp 5.13, the server also has mp3 being streamed as well and the metedata shows up correct with artist.


i have narrowed it down to winamp 5.2 being the problem, and titles with oggvorbis being streamed, no artist name.


i hope this gets fixed.

Current iPod support plugin (pmp_ipod.dll v0.3) doesn't detect iPod nano restored to factory-default settings by iPod updater.
I don't think this is a big bug. This problem can be solved simply with initialization by ml_iPod or iTune. But someone may be in trouble.

I thank you very much for gapless playback support. I'm really happy.

[daxliniere]

Well, I guess the subject says it all;

Never tried it in the previous v of Winamp, but just found that if the in_wave plugin is set to 32bit mode (I run a studio and often play 24bit wave files) then DSP?Effect plugins and built-in EQ are bypassed.

Sounds like this new in_wave plugin is a doozie...


Keep rockin it Nullsoft!

[Edit --> DJ Egg]
Nope, it was the same with the old in_wave, and all other plugins actually.

iPod Plug-in v0.3 [pmp_ipod.dll]

Problem:

Whenever stopping the iPod to disconnect it, Winamp crashes. This crash is 100% repeatable on my system. I get this error when debugging:

Unhandled exception at 0x01ff214d in winamp.exe: 0xC000001D: Illegal Instruction.

This /only/ started happening once I started using ephpod (http://www.ephpod.com/) to manage my iPod. In addition, Winamp is unable to recognize my iPod if I use ephpod. Winamp worked great when I was using only iTunes to manage my iPod.

If necessary, I can attach the windows error report that is generated.

Thanks!

Clean install of 5.2 on brand new WinXP Pro SP2, all updates.
iPod Mini worked great with Winamp up to 5.13.

First connected iPod, launched Winamp: Winamp crashes on load. Winamp starts successfully with no iPod connected. Connecting iPod while Winamp is loaded will crash Winamp.

Reformatted iPod with newest iPod Updater. Now Winamp launches without crashing, even with iPod connected, but it doesn't detect the iPod any more.

Could Winamp 5.2 be any worse in this regard? ml_ipod just worked, period.

Upgrade install of 5.2 from 5.13 (5.13 did NOT have ml_ipod installed.)

XP sp 2, all updates, plugged in iPod (3G, 40gig FW) and launched Winamp. It saw my iPod perfectly, and all playlists.

When I clicked sync (it was already up to date and should have had nothing to do) it proceeded to queue up dozens of songs that already existed on the iPod. I paused the sync, found the dupes that had already been copied and removed them from the iPod, then removed all songs from the queue list.

What does pmp_ipod.dll do to determine if the song already exists on the iPod? If it is based only on filename, then duplicates will occur since iTunes renames the files when copying them to the iPod.

pmp_ipod.dll should compare ID tags (artist, album, title, etc.) to check for duplicates, and it appears to not recognize at least some already existing songs.

Cheers,

Toby

AUD files support lost in Winamp version 5.2

Winamp doesn't play aud files anymore. Try to add .aud to the list of the new Waveform decoder.

Result Winamp doesn't play the files anymore. Works fine with the old Wavform decoder 2.06.

Discussed here:

Winamp 5.2 - update from 5.12 installation (with in_mpc 3rd-party plugin)
1 GB memory
Windows xp pro sp2
DirectX 9.c

Then I start playing new mp3/aac song, WinAmp increases his virtual memory size on 2-9 Mb (like song size). With other media formats playback all ok (wma/ogg/mpc).

I suppose bug in new gapless playback feature.

On screenshot you can see WinAmp memory size after 50 tracks have been played.

[Edit --> DJ Egg]
Hmm.. I can't reproduce this. Anyone else?

[keestu]

my system:
p4 2.8 865 GBF
nvidia 5200 FX
512 ram

installation:proper i.e according to winamp

error: query ABC...@fgkfm (some crap) is not present in ...client..dll

this must be the worst blunder of winamp

it shows the above stupid message box every time i start winamp.

correct it immediately.......(the video works fine.something you corrected? i think)
make a proper installer that doesnt stall the machine for a while.(about 5 seconds to start)

Clean install of Winamp 5.2, DirectX 9.0c December 2005, Windows 98 SE, IE6 SP1, WMP9, MDAC 2.8, .NET 1.1, .NET 2.0.
Celeron 800, 192 MB RAM, 120 GB + 20 GB hard drives, DVD ROM drive, CD-RW drive, Onboard Soundmax Integrated Digital Audio, NVIDIA GeForce FX 5200 PCI, Gigabyte GA-6WMMC7 motherboard.

Suspect plugin: in_mp3
Problem: Gapless playback not gapless with all MP3s
Detail: This problem only occurs with MP3s that have the "Original" flag. MP3s without any flags on them play gapless absolutely fine. However, recent rips have been done with EAC 0.95.1, and they always put an "Original" flag on each MP3 file. I haven't tried it with the other flags, but I'd assume they give the same problem.

[Inventive Soft]

Same specs as before
Another bug, WMA Encoder 1.1 (enc_wma.dll), unable to save encode settings. Winamp simply gives an "illegal operation" box (of which I will copy and paste the contents of later) and crashes/closes to desktop.

[Edit --> DJ Egg]
Hmm, can't reproduce this. There's no crash here.

[edit]Perhaps it's a 98 issue? I don't have XP, so can't confirm.[/edit]

[Inventive Soft]

About the enc_wma.dll bug, it only happens when "Windows Media 9" is selected. The other 2 options, "Windows Media 9 Professional" and "Windows Media 9 Voice" all save correctly.

[agarberi]

In Winamp 5.2, CTRL+V (Stop after this song) does not work.

Notes:
- standard keys (Z, X, C, V, B) work
- CTRL+V works in the Main Window and in the Playlist Editor

Clean install. 3rd party plugins installed (only INPUT plugins).
I think this bug is not related to my system configuration.

A new bug to report (another one!):

This is with in_cdda.dll. Same specs in previous posts applies. When I play an audio CD with the "Sonic extraction" option enabled, it crashes on exit. Doesn't happen with it disabled, this was how I narrowed it down. It doesn't sort-of hang or anything, just gives an "illegal operation" notice, then bombs back to desktop. The output from the crash is this:

[Edit --> DJ Egg]
The Sonic Engine crash on exit is Win9x-specific and known.
I guess that maybe the enc_wma crash is also probably Win9x-specific too

Note that the focus MUST be on the "Media Library" window to see the bug. Sorry, I wrote this only in the title and not in the text, I hope now it is clearer.
If focus is on "Playlist Editor" or "Winamp" windows, CTRL+V works perfectly.

Actually, none of the kybd shortcuts via "ml > main menu > playback" are working for me, heh. Same in 5.13, 5.09, 5.08 too, so looks like it's always been like that, and I'm not entirely sure if it's easily fixable, because ml is just a plugin (modeless dialog box) and not part of the winamp core.

You are right, no play shortcuts work for me too now. I really don't understand how them could work when I posted the bug!
Now it is clear that this is not a missing shortcut, but something not implemented at all in ML. And it also not very important ;-)
Thanks for your answer.

Hello.

I have tested it on another machine WinXP SP2 with clean winamp 5.2 installation and this bug reproduces.

Here http://ccfit.nsu*****~bur/aac/bug.zip you can find AAC file wich causes memory leaks. Unzip it to temporary folder, run make100copies.bat (it is located in this archive) to make 100 copies and add them all to playlist. Enjoy how WinAmp eats your PCs memory

Thanks.

I stream playing wav files. In earlier than 5.2, naming the wav file title-artist.wav worked fine for sending artist and title to WMP.

Using Winamp 5.2+ it now displays the complete path and extension of the files. Copying over with the old in_wave.dll fixes the problem.

-Bob

[kmw]

It seems that the last used folder in the dialog boxes for 'Export playlist' and 'Import playlist form file' override the last used folder for the 'Add media to library' dialog box.

I would like it if these were kept seperate as my playlists are in a different folder to where my music is.

[Edit --> DJ Egg]
Feature requests should be posted in the Wishlist forum.

When streaming Ogg Vorbis files, under 'User Agent' in Icecast, it shows: WinampOGG/5.12(MPEG stream compatible)

[shpac]

Hellow there!

After winamp 5.06 (or later, i see it in winamp 5.13) - it's now impossible to listen shoutcast's stations if you are sitting behind a NAT ;(

When I using winamp 5.06 to listen shoutcast's stream from the internet - all right, but where I using latest winamp (now 5.21) - it isn't possible to listen the sames broadcasts...
(in playlist printed: [ICY 200 OK] http://server-name)

Otherway: I can listen broadcast in both winamp 5.06 and 5.21 when shoutcasting server isn't behind NAT.

I'd just like to confirm this bug report. I am experiencing the same problem with a clean 5.21 install. Only a few albums seem to suffer from the duplication problem. And they get duplicated on every sync (not just the first time).
In my case it seems to be albums of german bands, containing songs with umlauts. So I am pretty sure this bug is related to unicode handling somehow (wrong assumptions when doing string comparisons maybe?). What is strange is that all songs in these albums get duplicated, even if only a few of the songs have umlauts in their titles.

Needless to say that this bug is extremely annoying. A quick fix would be great.

I never had probs with winamp an this system - after installing 5.21 winamp freezes while starting - only an empty equalizer screen is shown:



the funny thing is: I can not kill that hanging process (I tried the windows taskmanager & taskinfo but that doesn't help at all) and with the winamp task hanging, I can start other software (explorer etc) and their tasks appear in the process list but they never really start completly / show up on the desktop (I hope you know what I mean)
