WMA Files don't work

I installed the WMA Plug-In, but it doesn't play any WMA-files, only MP3. In the preferences of input, the plug-in is called "Microsoft WINAMP/WMA plug-in [NO CODEC INSTALLED] v1.00 [in_wm.dll]". What does this mean? I thought, I installed the codec with the plug-in!

It means you have an old version. The latest WMA decoder should be labeled:
Nullsoft Windows Media Decoder 3.23 [in_wm.dll]

Reinstall Winamp 5.31 and make sure you have Windows Media support checked in the installer.

[Edit --> DJ Egg] Changed 5.31 link (winamp.com still has 5.3)
