Winamp Videos ? in 5.1
 

what happened to the winamp videos? do i have to go back to older version to still get it?

No problems here, Winamp Video is shown in the media libary.

Try a clean install.

I noticed that too, doesn't install here either.

UJ

media librarly > online media > streaming media cache preferences,
check mark "look for new online media channels on exit"

winamp video will appear on next startup.

Thanks myrm, that worked.

What a bizarre way of having to install it, bug I guess.

Nah, that options is enabled by default. If you disabled it, the Online Media section won't update. Not a bug, intended functionality.

Point is if you upgrade to 5.1 then this setting may not be at default and Winamp Video will disappear from the listings.

Even with a clean install the first thing I do is set the preferences and that's before closing Winamp.

And why does this strange behaviour only apply to Winamp Video, why are the other channels installed immediately without having to do a global refresh.

UJ

the view listings as distro'd with winamp appear to be out of date. or something.

Maybe this should be an 'on demand' setting or tied in with the 'Refresh' time settings or something, it seems to cause more problems than it solves at the moment.
