5.24 - Media Library will not open

SteveB17 · 22nd June 2006, 18:51

I upgrade to the latest version today, but now when I click ML on the interface, there is a little flash of the interface and then nothing happens. I can't find any other links to the media library and I don't feel like playing songs individually.
What's happened?

Too late, I reinstalled. I think the problem was that the stupid installer used the wrong options when I updated and chose not to install the media library.

Why the installer can not just be simplier for an update, is beyond me or at least use my existing settings.

Since Winamp 5.20, the Winamp installer does remember previous install options.

There has been talk about some type of automatic or incremental update for Winamp. However, because of Winamp's modular design there is concern that it will cause more trouble then it is worth. As an example, mix matched components/plug-in versions/updates can be a pain in the but for stability and/or tech support (something like that).
