Winamp 5.2 Pro - keyboard problems during video playback

d18c7db · 1st March 2006, 04:57

Windows XP SP2 system with all latest patches, Intel CPU P4 3.2Ghz, SiS chipset, Winamp Pro 5.2, performed clean uninstall/install

I often use the keyboard (up/down volume left/right skip 5 sec, space pause) during video playback and I noticed the following after installing of 5.2

During video playback, when the focus is on the video window, the arrow keys are totally ignored by the player but space bar works (pause/unpause). If I move the focus from the video window to the player by clicking on it, the arrow keys begin to work as expected but the space bar is ignored. This is a straight clean install of 5.2 with default options and with no additional plugins. I was using 5.13 Pro just fine and nothing changed other than moving to Winamp 5.2 Pro.

I've now just reverted back to 5.13 and everything is working fine again, has anyone else noticed this problem?

Cheers

Alex
